EPA, DHA Supplementation Linked to Reduced Risk for MI, CHD
Supplementation with eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) is associated with a reduced risk for myocardial infarction (MI) and coronary heart disease (CHD) events.
Myocardial Infarction
Nonpsychotic Mental Disorder in Teens Linked to Later MI Risk
Having a nonpsychotic mental disorder in adolescence is associated with increased risk of subsequent myocardial infarction, with stress resilience partially attenuating the association.
The Role of AI in Managing Cardiovascular Disease and Diabetes
Artificial intelligence is set to revolutionize the handling of clinical data by all parties involved.
Adding Multiproteomic Biomarkers to Improve CV Risk Prediction in Diabetes With Recent MI
Adding multiproteomic biomarkers to a clinical risk model for the evaluation of patients with diabetes and a recent myocardial infarction may provide better risk assessment.
Evolocumab Found to Reduce LDL-C, CV Risk in Patients With Metabolic Syndrome and Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease
Evolocumab treatment in addition to statin therapy was found to lower cardiovascular risk in patients with metabolic syndrome and stable atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease.
P2Y12 Inhibitor Preloading Before PCI Associated With a Reduction in IMR
Loading of third-generation P2Y12 inhibitors before primary percutaneous coronary intervention for STEMI was associated with a reduction in the index of microcirculatory resistance.
Confirmatory Testing No Longer Needed for 23andMe’s CYP2C19 Report
The 510(k) clearance allows for modification of the labeling of the previously authorized pharmacogenetics report.
Clinical Outcomes With Use of Second- vs First-Generation DES for PCI
Second-generation drug-eluting stents (DES) were found to be associated with better clinical outcomes than first-generation DES, 2 years after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients with acute myocardial infarction and comorbid prediabetes.
