Association Between Intensity of Low-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol Reduction With Statin-Based Therapies and Secondary Stroke Prevention: A Meta-analysis of Randomized Clinical Trials
CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE: This study suggests that the benefits and risks of more intensive LDL-C-lowering statin-based therapies for recurrent stroke risk reduction might be more favorable than the benefits and risks of less intensive LDL-C-lowering statin-based therapies, especially for patients with evidence of atherosclerosis.PMID:35188949 | DOI:10.1001/jamaneurol.2021.5578

Effects of statins on the risks of ischemic stroke and heart disease in human immunodeficiency virus infection, influenza and severe acute respiratory syndrome-associated coronavirus: respiratory virus infection with steroid use
CONCLUSION: Statin use was associated with lower aHRs for ischemic stroke and heart disease in those with HIS disorders with comorbidities.PMID:35590450 | DOI:10.1080/00325481.2022.2080359

PCSK9 inhibition in patients with acute stroke and symptomatic intracranial atherosclerosis: protocol for a prospective, randomised, open-label, blinded end-point trial with vessel-wall MR imaging
BMJ Open. 2022 Apr 29;12(4):e060068. doi: 10.1136/bmjopen-2021-060068.ABSTRACTINTRODUCTION: Dual antiplatelet therapy and high-intensity statins are the mainstay treatment in patients with acute stage, symptomatic intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis (ICAS). Alirocumab is a monoclonal antibody that can inhibit proprotein convertase subtilisin-kexin type 9 and effectively lower low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels with less side effects than statins. We hypothesise that alirocumab treatment in addition to statin therapy could stabilise intracranial plaque and reduce arterial stenosis.METHODS AND ANALYSIS: In this pro...

Effect of initiating statin therapy on long-term outcomes of patients with dyslipidemia after intracerebral hemorrhage
Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) has a higher mortality than ischemic stroke. Statin is beneficial for stroke, but high potency statin treatment has been associated with the risk of hemorrhagic stroke. The aim of this study was to assess the impact of initiating statin therapy after ICH on cardiovascular outcomes.

Cost-effectiveness of statin therapy for secondary prevention among patients with coronary artery disease and baseline LDL-C 70–100 mg/dL in Taiwan
ConclusionLowering the target LDL-C level from 100 to 70 mg/dL among treatment-naïve CAD patients could be cost-effective given the health benefits of preventing cardiovascular events and deaths.

The Triangulation WIthin a STudy (TWIST) framework for causal inference within pharmacogenetic research
by Jack Bowden, Luke Pilling, Deniz T ürkmen, Chia-Ling Kuo, David Melzer
In this paper we review the methodological underpinnings of the general pharmacogenetic approach for uncovering genetically-driven treatment effect heterogeneity. This typically utilises only individuals who are treated and relies on fairly strong baseline assumptions to estimate what we term the ‘genetically moderated treatment effect’ (GMTE). When these assumptions are seriously violated, we show that a robust but less efficient estimate of the GMTE that incorporates information on the population of untreated individuals can instead be used. ...
