Free fatty acids and cardiovascular outcome: a Chinese cohort study on stable coronary artery disease

Nutrition & Metabolism, 2017
Background Studies have revealed that plasma level of free fatty acids (FFAs) is related to cardiovascular disease. However, the role of FFAs in clinical outcomes of stable coronary artery disease (SCAD) has been less evaluated.

Circulating PCSK9 and cardiovascular events in FH patients with standard lipid-lowering therapy

Journal of Translational Medicine, 2019
Background Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin 9 (PCSK9) has been proposed as a novel target for coronary artery disease (CAD). Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is characterized by high prevalence of CAD and major cardiovascular events (MACEs ...
