Incidence of Statin-Associated Adverse Events in Kidney Transplant Recipients
CONCLUSIONS: Statins appear to be generally well-tolerated in kidney transplant recipients. However, statin use might be associated with slightly higher risk of post-transplant diabetes mellitus, cataract, and rhabdomyolysis.PMID:36800538 | DOI:10.2215/CJN.0000000000000124

Population-wide cohort study of statin use for the secondary cardiovascular disease prevention in Scotland in 2009-2017
Conclusions Statin use remains suboptimal for the secondary ASCVD prevention, particularly in women and older patients, and following ischaemic stroke and PAD hospitalisations. Improving this would offer substantial benefits to population health at low cost.

Benefit of Combination Ezetimibe/Simvastatin Among High-Risk Populations: Lessons from the IMPROVE-IT Trial
AbstractPurpose of ReviewThe Improved Reduction of Outcomes: Vytorin Efficacy International Trial (IMPROVE-IT) demonstrated the clinical benefit of the combination of ezetimibe-simvastatin compared to placebo-simvastatin following acute coronary syndrome (ACS). This review highlights key findings from this study with particular attention to the practice-changing impact on guidelines for low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) reduction after ACS, especially among high-risk populations.Recent FindingsConsistent reductions in LDL-C have been reported with newer lipid-lowering therapies (proprotein convertase subtilisin/k...

Novel biomarkers and emerging tools to identify causal molecular pathways in hypertension and associated cardiovascular diseases
Kardiol Pol. 2023 Feb 5. doi: 10.33963/KP.a2023.0037. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTHypertension (HT) is a modifiable risk factor for life-threatening cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) including coronary artery disease, heart failure or stroke. Despite significant progress in understanding of the pathophysiological mechanisms of the disease, the molecular pathways targeted by HT treatment still remain largely unchanged. This warrants the necessity for searching novel biomarkers, which are causally related to persistent high blood pressure (BP) and may be pharmacologically targeted. Data from large-scale biobanks, containing h...

Pitavastatin Compared with Differential Intervention Trial by Standard Therapy on Cardiovascular Events in Patients with Dyslipidemia on Chronic Hemodialysis (DIALYSIS): A Randomized Controlled Trial
Conclusion: Our study has demonstrated that aggressive intervention with pitavastatin is more effective than the standard (dietary) therapy for improving the clinical outcomes in patients with dyslipidemia on chronic hemodialysis.Blood Purif
