Design, methods and baseline characteristics of the Beijing Hospital Atherosclerosis Study: a prospective dynamic cohort study
CONCLUSIONS: This study has successfully initiated an investigation into the roles of new biosignatures in predicting CAD among Chinese Han patients undergoing CAG. To the best of our knowledge, this cohort is the first study systematically focusing on the association of lifestyle biomarkers and biological age with CAD risk. Findings from this study will provide biomarkers to discriminate the presence of CAD and to predict subsequent cardiovascular events.PMID:35965802 | PMC:PMC9372652 | DOI:10.21037/atm-22-2834

Early statin use and cardiovascular outcomes after myocardial infarction: A population-based case-control study
CONCLUSIONS: Lack of statin therapy early after MI is associated with adverse outcomes across the spectrum of MI patients. Results underline the importance of timely statin use after MI.PMID:35803064 | DOI:10.1016/j.atherosclerosis.2022.06.1019

Lipid-Modifying Therapies and Stroke Prevention
Curr Neurol Neurosci Rep. 2022 May 13. doi: 10.1007/s11910-022-01197-4. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTPURPOSE OF REVIEW: We reviewed lipid-modifying therapies and the risk of stroke and other cerebrovascular outcomes, with a focus on newer therapies.RECENT FINDINGS: Statins and ezetimibe reduce ischemic stroke risk without increasing hemorrhagic stroke risk. Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) inhibitors similarly reduce ischemic stroke risk in statin-treated patients with atherosclerosis without increasing hemorrhagic stroke, even with very low achieved low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels. Icosape...

Polycystic ovary syndrome: a "risk-enhancing" factor for cardiovascular disease
Fertil Steril. 2022 May;117(5):924-935. doi: 10.1016/j.fertnstert.2022.03.009.ABSTRACTPolycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is the most common endocrine disorder among women of reproductive age and is hallmarked by hyperandrogenism, oligo-ovulation, and polycystic ovarian morphology. Polycystic ovary syndrome, particularly the hyperandrogenism phenotype, is associated with several cardiometabolic abnormalities, including obesity, dyslipidemia, elevated blood pressure, and prediabetes or type 2 diabetes. Many, but not all, studies have suggested that PCOS is associated with increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD), includi...

Potential role for pentoxifylline as an anti-inflammatory drug for patients with acute coronary syndrome
Exp Ther Med. 2022 Jun;23(6):378. doi: 10.3892/etm.2022.11305. Epub 2022 Apr 8.ABSTRACTThe link between inflammation and acute coronary syndrome (ACS) remains to be sufficiently elucidated. It has been previously suggested that there is an inflammatory process associated with ACS. Pentoxifylline, a methylxanthine derivate, is known to delay the progression of atherosclerosis and reduce the risk of vascular events, especially by modulating the systemic inflammatory response. The present study is a single-blind, randomized, prospective study of pentoxifylline 400 mg three times a day (TID) added to standard therapy vs. stand...

Atherosclerosis: Known and unknown
Pathol Int. 2022 Jan 25. doi: 10.1111/pin.13202. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAtherosclerotic disease, such as myocardial infarction and stroke, is the number one killer worldwide. Atherosclerosis is considered to be caused by multiple factors, including genetic and environmental factors. In humans, it takes several decades until the clinical complications develop. There are many known risk factors for atherosclerosis, including hypercholesterolemia, hypertension, diabetes and smoking, which are involved in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis; however, it is generally believed that atherosclerosis is vascular chronic infl...

Circulating Metabolome and White Matter Hyperintensities in Females and Males
Conclusions: Circulating metabolomic measures, including multiple lipid measures (e.g., lysophosphatidylcholines, hydroxysphingomyelins, low-density lipoprotein size and composition) and non-lipid metabolites (e.g., hydroxyphenylpyruvate, glucuronate) associate with WMH in a general population of middle-aged and older adults. Some metabolomic measures show marked sex specificities and explain sizable proportion of WMH variance.PMID:35050683 | DOI:10.1161/CIRCULATIONAHA.121.056892

Sodium ozagrel and atorvastatin for type 2 diabetes patients with lacunar cerebral infarction
CONCLUSION: Sodium ozagrel with atorvastatin can reduce inflammatory reactions; regulate ESR and HMGB1, PON-1, and MIF levels; control blood glucose and lipid indexes; and alleviate nerve injury without increasing adverse effects of atorvastatin alone.PMID:35047123 | PMC:PMC8696649 | DOI:10.4239/wjd.v12.i12.2096

Determinants of Incident Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease Events Among Those With Absent Coronary Artery Calcium: Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis
Conclusions: Current cigarette smoking, diabetes mellitus, and hypertension are independently associated with incident ASCVD over 16-year follow-up among those with CAC=0. Family history of premature ASCVD may be associated with ASCVD risk among women only.PMID:34879218 | DOI:10.1161/CIRCULATIONAHA.121.056705

Combining ultrasound with bio-indicators reveals progression of carotid stenosis
CONCLUSIONS: High-risk hs-CRP and hypoechoic plaque are independently associated with CAS progression. The progression of carotid stenosis is associated with a high risk of cerebrovascular events.PMID:34872279 | DOI:10.21037/apm-21-2666
