Ultrasound examination of the carotid artery for improved prediction of cardiovascular events and the effect of statin treatment in advanced atherosclerosis : An observational study
CONCLUSION: The prediction of cardiovascular events was better with plaque burden measurements than with the PROCAM score. Treatment with statins in subjects with advanced carotid atherosclerosis (types III-IV b findings on ultrasound) significantly improved the prognosis in a nonrandomized observational study.PMID:37402837 | DOI:10.1007/s00059-023-05197-z

Optimization of secondary prevention in patients with high-risk atherothrombotic ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attacks
Zh Nevrol Psikhiatr Im S S Korsakova. 2023;123(6):36-43. doi: 10.17116/jnevro202312306136.ABSTRACTHigh and very high risk atherothrombotic ischemic stroke (ATIS) includes patients with severe extracranial atherosclerosis, any intracranial atherosclerosis, and aortic arch atheromatosis. The article discusses the most effective approaches to medical short- and long-term secondary prevention of ATIS, major vascular events and death, based on the results of modern research and current clinical guidelines. Clinical studies of recent years have proven the possibility of individualization and intensification of secondary preventi...

More Than 50 Percent Reduction in LDL Cholesterol in Patients With Target LDL & lt;70 mg/dL After a Stroke
CONCLUSIONS: In this post hoc analysis of the TST trial, targeting an LDL cholesterol of <70 mg/dL reduced the risk of primary outcome compared with 100±10 mg/dL provided LDL cholesterol reduction from baseline was superior to 50%, thereby suggesting that the magnitude of LDL cholesterol reduction was as important to consider as the target level to achieve.REGISTRATION: URL: https://www.CLINICALTRIALS: gov; Unique identifier: NCT01252875; https://clinicaltrialsregister.eu; Unique identifier: EUDRACT2009-A01280-57.PMID:37376989 | DOI:10.1161/STROKEAHA.123.042621

Neuroprotector Hopeful in Stroke; Late-Pandemic STEMIs; Exercise vs Risky Carotids?
(MedPage Today) -- In the CLEAR Outcomes trial, bempedoic acid (Nexletol) reduced cardiac events to a similar extent as statins, according to a secondary analysis presented at ENDO 2023. The TLR4 antagonist ApTOLL showed promise as a neuroprotectant...

Investigation of Combined Carotid Endarterectomy and Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery Outcomes and Adverse Event Risk Factors in the Vascular Quality Initiative
CONCLUSIONS: Combined CEA and CABG provides excellent long-term mortality prevention in patients with co-existing severe coronary and carotid atherosclerosis. Simultaneous CEA and CABG provides equivalent stroke prevention and long-term survival to both a cohort of patients undergoing coronary revascularization within 5 years of CEA and patients undergoing isolated CEA or CABG in the literature. The two most impactful modifiable risk factors towards long-term stroke and mortality prevention for patients undergoing simultaneous CEA-CABG are patch placement at CEA site and adherence to statin medication therapy.PMID:37303074...

Plain language summary of results from ORION-10 and ORION-11: Two studies to learn how well inclisiran works in people with high cholesterol
Future Cardiol. 2023 Jun 6. doi: 10.2217/fca-2022-0133. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTWHAT IS THIS PLAIN LANGUAGE SUMMARY ABOUT?: This is a summary of the article describing the results of the ORION-10 and ORION-11 studies, which was published in the New England Journal of Medicine in April 2020. The studies included adult participants with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). ASCVD happens when the blood vessels that carry blood from the heart to other areas of the body are blocked by fatty build-up (plaque) causing a heart attack, stroke, or other problems. High levels of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (L...

Higher Non-High-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol Was Higher Associated With Cardiovascular Disease Comparing Higher LDL-C in Nine Years Follow Up: Cohort Study
CONCLUSION: In our large population study, higher non-HDL-C levels were associated with CVD than LDL-C levels.PMID:37265846 | PMC:PMC10232221 | DOI:10.12997/jla.2023.12.2.164

Plasma ANGPTL8 Levels and Risk for Secondary Cardiovascular Events in Japanese Patients With Stable Coronary Artery Disease Receiving Statin Therapy
CONCLUSIONS: Monitoring ANGPTL8 levels over time might be useful to assess residual risk of cardiovascular secondary events in patients with cardiovascular disease undergoing statin therapy.PMID:37259862 | DOI:10.1161/ATVBAHA.122.318880
