Inclisiran Safe, Effective in Reducing LDL-C in Patients With Familial Hypercholesterolemia or ASCVD
Researchers conducted a patient-level pooled analysis from phase 3 trials of inclisiran in patients with familial hypercholesterolemia or ASCVD.
Atherosclerosis
CVD Risk Factors, Carotid Plaque Burden, and Brain Hypometabolism
The presence of cardiovascular risk factors and subclinical carotid atherosclerosis in midlife may be associated with brain hypometabolism.
Elevated Non–HDL Cholesterol During Adolescence Increases Risk of Coronary Atherosclerosis in Mid-Adulthood
Autopsy studies have shown that aortic and coronary artery atherosclerotic lesions are present in toddlers and progresses into adulthood. This study explores the development of coronary atherosclerosis due to non–HDL-C over three stages of life.
History of Gestational Diabetes and Risk for Atherosclerotic CVD During Midlife
The risk for coronary artery calcification was found to be greater in women with a history of gestational diabetes despite attaining normoglycemia after pregnancy.
Comparable Efficacy of Rivaroxaban Plus Aspirin Regimen Across BMI, Body Weight Categories
Rivaroxaban plus aspirin regimen for chronic atherosclerotic vascular disease may not require adjustment based on BMI or weight.
Recreational Substance Use Linked to Premature Atherosclerotic CVD
Recreational substance use is associated with an increased likelihood of premature and extremely premature atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease.
Addition of Evolocumab to Statin Therapy Found to Lower Risk for Complex Coronary Disease Requiring Revascularization
Addition of evolocumab to statin therapy was found to lower the risk for complex coronary disease requiring revascularization.
Coronary Artery Disease Severity and Levels of ADAMTS-9
Greater levels of ADAMTS-9 were found to be associated with greater risk for MACE in patients with acute myocardial infarction.
Risk for Lower Limb Amputation in Concomitant PAD and MVD
Microvascular disease was found to be associated with lower limb amputation, a risk increased in a synergistic manner in individuals with comorbid PAD.
Examining the Role of Cardiovascular Markers in the Association Between BMI and Osteoarthritis
Carotid intima-media thickness and diastolic blood pressure were found to have minimal involvement in the mediation of the association between BMI and osteoarthritis.
