World Heart Federation Cholesterol Roadmap 2022
CONCLUSIONS: The adverse effects of LDL-cholesterol and apo B containing lipoprotein exposure are cumulative and result in ASCVD. These are preventable by implementation of different strategies, aimed at efficiently tackling atherosclerosis at different stages throughout the human life-course. Preventive strategies should therefore be updated to implement health policy, lifestyle changes and when needed pharmacotherapies earlier with investment in, and a shift in focus towards, early preventive strategies that preserve cardiovascular health rather than treat the consequences of ASCVD.PMID:36382159 | PMC:PMC9562775 | DOI:10.5334/gh.1154

Statins Reduce Bleeding Risk in Patients Taking Oral Anticoagulants for Nonvalvular Atrial Fibrillation: A Retrospective Registry Study
ConclusionsStatins significantly reduced the risk of major bleeding, all-cause mortality, and ischemic events in patients with NVAF taking OACs. Their additive benefits should be considered in routine practice and thus be further researched.

Pharmacogenomics in Stroke and Cardiovascular Disease: State of the Art
Stroke. 2022 Nov 3. doi: 10.1161/STROKEAHA.122.037717. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThere is considerable interindividual variability in the response to antiplatelet and anticoagulant therapies, and this variation may be attributable to genetic variants. There has been an increased understanding of the genetic architecture of stroke and cardiovascular disease, which has been driven by advancements in genomic technologies and this has raised the possibility of more targeted pharmaceutical treatments. Pharmacogenetics promises to use a patient's genetic profile to treat those who are more likely to benefit from a particular...

Natural products of traditional Chinese medicine treat atherosclerosis by regulating inflammatory and oxidative stress pathways
This study aimed to update and summarize progress in understanding how natural medicines treat AS via inflammatory and oxidative stress-related signaling pathways. We also planned to create an information base for the development of novel drugs for future AS treatment.PMID:36249778 | PMC:PMC9563010 | DOI:10.3389/fphar.2022.997598

Platelet Redox Imbalance in Hypercholesterolemia: A Big Problem for a Small Cell
Int J Mol Sci. 2022 Sep 28;23(19):11446. doi: 10.3390/ijms231911446.ABSTRACTThe imbalance between reactive oxygen species (ROS) synthesis and their scavenging by anti-oxidant defences is the common soil of many disorders, including hypercholesterolemia. Platelets, the smallest blood cells, are deeply involved in the pathophysiology of occlusive arterial thrombi associated with myocardial infarction and stroke. A great deal of evidence shows that both increased intraplatelet ROS synthesis and impaired ROS neutralization are implicated in the thrombotic process. Hypercholesterolemia is recognized as cause of atherosclerosis,...

The Effects of a Perindopril-Based Regimen in Relation to Statin Use on the Outcomes of Patients with Vascular Disease: a Combined Analysis of the ADVANCE, EUROPA, and PROGRESS Trials
ConclusionOur data suggest that the treatment benefits of a perindopril-based regimen in patients with vascular disease are independent of statin use.

Perioperative Medical Management for Symptomatic Carotid Artery Interventions
AbstractPurpose of ReviewThe goal of this review is to provide the reader with an overview of symptomatic carotid stenosis and the approach to medical management of patients undergoing surgical intervention with both carotid endarterectomy (CEA) and carotid artery stenting (CAS).Recent FindingsCEA is recommended for patients with moderate to severe symptomatic carotid stenosis and transient ischemic attack (TIA) or non-disabling stroke. More recently CAS has also been shown to be a beneficial, less invasive option for patients with symptomatic carotid stenosis. All patients need urgent medical therapy to reduce the risk of...

Higher mortality in acute coronary syndrome patients without standard modifiable risk factors: Results from a global meta-analysis of 1,285,722 patients
CONCLUSION: In this study level meta-analysis, SMuRF-less ACS patients demonstrate higher mortality compared with patients with at least one traditional atherosclerotic risk factor. Underuse of guideline-directed medical therapy amongst SMuRF-less patients is concerning. Unraveling novel risk factors amongst SMuRF-less individuals is the next important step.SUMMARY: Standard modifiable cardiovascular risk factors (SMuRF), comprising diabetes mellitus, hyperlipidemia, hypertension, and smoking, are often used for risk stratification in acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Recent studies showed an increasing proportion of SMuRF-le...

Yield of Dual Therapy With Statin and Ezetimibe in the Treat Stroke to Target Trial
CONCLUSIONS: In the TST trial (Treat Stroke to Target), targeting an LDL cholesterol of < 70 mg/dL with a combination of statin and ezetimibe compared with 100±10 mg/dL consistently reduced the risk of subsequent stroke.REGISTRATION: URL: https://www.CLINICALTRIALS: gov; Unique identifier: NCT01252875.

Serum cholesterol loading capacity on macrophages is linked to coronary atherosclerosis and cardiovascular event risk in rheumatoid arthritis
CONCLUSION: CLC was linked to long-term cardiovascular event risk in RA and associated with high-risk low attenuation and obstructive coronary plaque presence and burden in bDMARD non-users. Its prospective validation as a predictive biomarker may be, therefore, warranted.PMID:36113961 | DOI:10.1136/rmdopen-2022-002411
