Intra-plaque calcium and its relation with the progression of carotid atheromatous disease
CONCLUSIONS: These results suggest that a higher content of Ca confers greater stability against the progression of carotid AD and, eventually, its ability to generate symptomatology.PMID:35583455 | DOI:10.23736/S0392-9590.22.04872-6

Effects of intensive lipid lowering compared with moderate-intensity lipid lowering on coronary atherosclerotic plaque phenotype and major adverse cardiovascular events in adults with low to intermediate 10-year ASCVD risk (ILLUMINATION study): protocol for a multicentre, open-label, blinded-endpoint, randomised controlled trial
Introduction Current guidelines recommend moderate-intensity lipid lowering (low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, LDL-C of <2.6 mmol/L or 30%–49% reduction from the baseline) for patients with intermediate 10-year atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) risk. The effects of intensive lipid lowering (LDL-C of <1.8 mmol/L) on coronary atherosclerotic plaque phenotype and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) in adults with both non-obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD) and low to intermediate 10-year ASCVD risk remain uncertain. Methods and analysis Intensive Lipid-lowering for Plaque and Major A...

Effect of Nicorandil, Diltiazem, or Isosorbide Mononitrate for Oral Antispastic Therapy After Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting Using Radial Artery Grafts —A Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial (ASRAB-Pilot): Rationale and Study Protocol
ConclusionThis pilot trial will compare the preliminary effects of nicorandil, diltiazem, and isosorbide mononitrate on angiographic and clinical outcomes in patients who have undergone RA-CABG. Recruitment began in June 2020, and the estimated primary completion date is early 2023. Results of this study will provide much needed information for design of large confirmatory trials on the effectiveness of oral antispastic medications after RA-CABG.

Atherosclerosis on CT coronary angiography and risk of long-term cardiovascular events post liver transplantation
CONCLUSION: The standardized CAD-RADS classification on CTCA predicted the occurrence of cardiovascular outcomes following LT, with a potential to increase utilization of preventive cardiovascular therapies.PMID:37432891 | DOI:10.1097/LVT.0000000000000215
