Expanding the therapeutic landscape: ezetimibe as non-statin therapy for dyslipidemia [PDF]
Dyslipidemia is a significant risk factor for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD), and statins are the primary therapeutic options for reducing low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels.

New approaches in detection and treatment of familial hypercholesterolemia [PDF]
Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is an autosomal dominant genetic disorder that clinically leads to increased low density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) levels. As a consequence, FH patients are at high risk for cardiovascular disease (CVD). Mutations

Systematic review and network meta-analysis on the efficacy of evolocumab and other therapies for the management of lipid levels in hyperlipidemia [PDF]
Background: The proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) inhibitors evolocumab and alirocumab substantially reduce low‐density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL‐C) when added to statin therapy in patients who need additional LDL‐C reduction ...

Physicians' Experiences as Patients with Statin Side Effects: A Case Series. [PDF]
Physicians are among those prescribed statins and therefore, subject to potential statin adverse effects (AEs). There is little information on the impact of statin AEs on physicians affected by them. We sought to assess the character and impact of statin

Photocatalytic cross‐coupling: A redox‐neutral photochemical method enables direct C(sp2)─C(sp2) bond formation between phenols and heteroaryl halides using an organic dye and base. Complementary radical generation allows efficient cross‐coupling in up to 91% yield. Mechanistic studies, DFT, HTE, and machine learning rationalize and predict reactivity,
