Effects of Add‐On Icosapent Ethyl With Standard Treatment on Functional Outcomes and Inflammatory Biomarkers in Acute Ischemic Stroke: A Blinded Randomized Controlled Trial

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Ischemic stroke, a major cause of mortality and long‐term disability, results from the abrupt cessation of cerebral blood flow due to vascular occlusion or rupture. Icosapent Ethyl (EPA‐EE), approved for hypertriglyceridemia, has anti‐inflammatory and antithrombotic properties that may lessen ischemic damage.

Effects of inhibiting cholesterol absorption and synthesis on cholesterol and lipoprotein metabolism in hypercholesterolemic non-insulin-dependent diabetic men.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1996
Effectiveness of a simultaneous inhibition of cholesterol absorption and synthesis, caused by sitostanol ester margarine and pravastatin, was studied to control mild hypercholesterolemia in men with non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) (n = 8).

The effects of lowering LDL cholesterol with statin therapy in people at low risk of vascular disease: meta-analysis of individual data from 27 randomised trials

The Lancet, 2012
Summary Background Statins reduce LDL cholesterol and prevent vascular events, but their net effects in people at low risk of vascular events remain uncertain.

Diffuse MRI Edema Predicts Relapse in Cerebral Amyloid Angiopathy–Related Inflammation

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To identify MRI predictors of relapse and quantify relapse and mortality risk in cerebral amyloid angiopathy–related inflammation (CAA‐RI). A secondary objective was to assess the association between mycophenolate mofetil use and relapse risk. Methods We performed a retrospective cohort study of 36 patients with CAA‐RI treated at the

Standardization of Apolipoprotein B, LDL‐Cholesterol, and Non‐HDL‐Cholesterol

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2023
Concern continues about whether the measurement of apolipoprotein B (apoB) is adequately standardized, and therefore, whether apoB should be applied widely in clinical care. This concern is misplaced.

Evolocumab for Early Reduction of LDL-Cholesterol Levels in Patients with Acute Coronary Syndromes (EVOPACS).

Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 2019
BACKGROUND While guidelines recommend in-hospital initiation of high-intensity statin therapy in patients with acute coronary syndromes (ACS), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) target levels are frequently not attained.

Systemic Extracerebral Atherosclerotic Burden and Dementia Risk After Incident Stroke

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Stroke survivors are at increased risk of dementia, but clinically accessible markers of risk heterogeneity remain limited. Previous studies have largely examined atherosclerotic disease in individual vascular beds rather than the overall burden of systemic extracerebral atherosclerosis.

Low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and risk of COPD: Copenhagen General Population Study

ERJ Open Research, 2023
Background Randomised controlled trials found that low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol-lowering statins increase lung function and possibly decrease rate of exacerbations in individuals with COPD.
