Lp(a) mass concentrations were measured using a turbidimetric immunoassay. Cox regression analysis determined associations of Lp(a) with CHD risk with adjustments for lipid and nonlipid variables. Lp(a) concentrations were continuously associated with risk of CHD incidence in black (hazard ratio [HR], 1.49; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.09\u20132.04] and white participants (HR, 1.22; 95% CI, 1.02\u20131.45). Examining Lp(a) risk by the 50 mg\/dL cut point revealed higher risks of incident CHD in all races except Chinese Americans: blacks (HR, 1.69; 95% CI, 1.03\u20132.76), whites (HR, 1.82; 95% CI, 1.15\u20132.88); Hispanics (HR, 2.37; 95% CI, 1.17\u20134.78). The lower Lp(a) cut point of 30 mg\/dL identified higher risk of CHD in black participants alone (HR, 1.87; 95% CI, 1.08\u20133.21).<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Conclusions\u2014<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>Our findings suggest that the 30 mg\/dL cutoff for Lp(a) is not appropriate in white and Hispanic individuals, and the higher 50 mg\/dL cutoff should be considered. In contrast, the 30 mg\/dL cutoff remains suitable in black individuals.
