Chemoprevention of colorectal neoplasia
ConclusionsCurrently, there is not enough evidence to support the implementation of a chemopreventative agent for general use. However, there appears to be a role for aspirin in selected subgroups.

Pharmacological treatment for Buerger's disease.
CONCLUSIONS: Moderate quality evidence suggests that intravenous iloprost (prostacyclin analogue) is more effective than aspirin for eradicating rest pain and healing ischaemic ulcers in Buerger's disease, but oral iloprost is not more effective than placebo. Verylow and low quality evidence suggests there is no difference between prostacyclin (iloprost and clinprost) and the prostaglandin analogue alprostadil for healing ulcers and relieving pain respectively in severe Buerger's disease. Very-low quality evidence suggests there is no difference in pain scores and amputation rates between folic acid and placebo, in people ...

Omega-3 fatty acids as an adjunct for periodontal therapy—a review
Conclusions Dietary supplementation with fish oil could be a cost-effective adjunctive therapy to the management of periodontal disease. Clinical relevance The host modulatory properties of omega-3 fatty acids warrant further assessment of their use as an adjunct in the management of periodontitis.

Oral aspirin for treating venous leg ulcers.
CONCLUSIONS: Low quality evidence from two trials indicate that there is currently insufficient evidence for us to draw definitive conclusions about the benefits and harms of oral aspirin on the healing and recurrence of venous leg ulcers. We downgraded the evidence to low quality due to potential selection bias and imprecision due to the small sample size. The small number of participants may have a hidden real benefit, or an increase in harm. Due to the lack of reliable evidence, we are unable to draw conclusions about the benefits and harms of oral daily aspirin as an adjunct to compression in VLU healing or recurrence....

Abstract 203: Preventing Stroke in Patients With Atrial Fibrillation: A Review of Published Interventions to Aid Patient Decision Making Session Title: Abstract Poster Session II
Conclusion: Interventions designed to aid patient decision making around stroke prevention in AF improved a selection of patient-centered outcomes. Given the availability of multiple NOACs and an implantable device for stroke prevention in AF, there is a need to develop and evaluate new patient decision support tools.

Antiplatelet versus anticoagulation treatment for patients with heart failure in sinus rhythm.
CONCLUSIONS: There is evidence from RCTs to suggest that neither oral anticoagulation with warfarin or platelet inhibition with aspirin is better for mortality in systolic heart failure with sinus rhythm (high quality of the evidence for all-cause mortality and moderate quality of the evidence for non-fatal cardiovascular events and major bleeding events). Treatment with warfarin was associated with a 20% reduction in non-fatal cardiovascular events but a twofold higher risk of major bleeding complications (high quality of the evidence). We saw a similar pattern of results for the warfarin versus clopidogrel comparison (lo...

Primary prophylaxis for venous thromboembolism in ambulatory cancer patients receiving chemotherapy.
CONCLUSIONS: In this second update, we confirmed that primary thromboprophylaxis with LMWH significantly reduced the incidence of symptomatic VTE in ambulatory cancer patients treated with chemotherapy. In addition, the uLMWH semuloparin, which is not commercially available, significantly reduced the incidence of symptomatic VTE. The risk of major bleeding associated with LMWH, while not reaching statistical significance, suggest caution and mandate additional studies to determine the risk-to-benefit ratio of LMWH in this setting. Despite the encouraging results of this review, routine prophylaxis in ambulatory cancer pati...

QUESTION 1: What is the best therapy for children with Kawasaki disease who fail to respond to initial intravenous immunoglobulin?
Scenario A 7-year-old girl was admitted with Kawasaki disease (KD), and treated with aspirin and intravenous immunoglobulin (Ig) therapy. After 48 hours of treatment she is still miserable and febrile, and you wonder what would be the most effective next step in treatment to reduce the risk of her developing coronary artery aneurysms. Structured clinical question In patients with KD who fail to respond to initial intravenous Ig therapy (population), what is the most effective next line of treatment (intervention) to reduce the risk of coronary artery aneurysm development (outcome)?

Current and future perspectives on the treatment of cerebral ischemia.
Authors: Christophe BR, Mehta SH, Garton AL, Sisti J, Connolly ES Abstract INTRODUCTION: After heart disease and combined forms of cancer, stroke is the leading cause of death in the United States. Currently, tissue-plasminogen activator (tPA) thrombolysis is the only thrombolytic therapy that has been shown to improve patient outcome. Presently, the only antithrombotic drug treatment that has proven effective at improving acute ischemic stroke patient outcome is aspirin administration. Despite these studies, no clinical trials have yet demonstrated a reliably effective pharmacological treatment. Areas covered: We ...

Clopidogrel plus aspirin versus aspirin alone for preventing cardiovascular events.
CONCLUSIONS: The available evidence demonstrates that the use of clopidogrel plus aspirin in people at high risk of cardiovascular disease and people with established cardiovascular disease without a coronary stent is associated with a reduction in the risk of myocardial infarction and ischaemic stroke, and an increased risk of major and minor bleeding compared with aspirin alone. According to GRADE criteria, the quality of evidence was moderate for all outcomes except all-cause mortality (low quality evidence) and adverse events (very low quality evidence).

This study identifies the missing link between Lewy bodies and the type of damage that's been observed in neurons affected by Parkinson's. Parkinson's is a disorder of the mitochondria, and we discovered how Lewy bodies are releasing a partial break-down product that has a high tropism for the mitochondria and destroys their ability to produce energy." Lewy bodies were described a century ago, but it was not until 1997 that scientists discovered they were made of clumps of a misfolded protein called α-synuclein. When it's not misfolded, α-synuclein is believed to carry out functions related to the transmission of...

The Emerging Role of Inflammation in Cardiovascular Disease.
CONCLUSIONS: Patients with elevated inflammatory markers such as hsCRP are at risk for ASVCD events. Several drug classes have shown the ability to decrease hsCRP levels, but the extent to which this reduces ASCVD events in lieu of other drug mechanisms was not clear. Canakinumab specifically targets the inflammatory process in ASCVD and was proven to be effective in preventing ASCVD events in patients with elevated hsCRP levels.

The objective here is a set of tests that (a) match up to the expected outcome based on human trials of mitochondrially targeted antioxidants, and (b) that anyone can run without the need to involve a physician, as that always adds significant time and expense. These tests are focused on the cardiovascular system, particularly measures influenced by vascular stiffness, and some consideration given to parameters relevant to oxidative stress and the development of atherosclerosis. A standard blood test, with inflammatory markers. An oxidized LDL cholesterol assessment. Resting heart rate and blood pressure. Heart r...
