Improved efficacy for ezetimibe and rosuvastatin by attenuating the induction of PCSK9[S]

Journal of Lipid Research, 2011
Reducing circulating LDL-cholesterol (LDL-c) reduces the risk of cardiovascular disease in people with hypercholesterolemia. Current approaches to reduce circulating LDL-c include statins, which inhibit cholesterol synthesis, and ezetimibe, which blocks ...

Validation of the European Society of Cardiology Ischemic and Bleeding Risk Criteria for Risk Stratification After Endovascular Therapy in Japanese Patients With Lower Extremity Artery Disease

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The European Society of Cardiology (ESC) guidelines for peripheral artery disease recommend antithrombotic strategies based on high ischemic risk (HIR) and high bleeding risk (HBR) criteria. However, their prognostic value in patients with lower extremity artery disease (LEAD) undergoing endovascular therapy (EVT) remains unclear ...

Mechanical Thrombus Aspiration for a Young STEMI Patient With Plaque Erosion: Time for a Stent‐Free Approach?

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A 34‐year‐old man with no cardiovascular history presented with anterior ST‐elevation myocardial infarction and a large thrombotic occlusion of the mid left anterior descending artery. Following potent antithrombotic therapy and mechanical thrombus aspiration, angiography revealed vessel patency without residual significant stenosis, allowing ...

Evaluation of Treatment Response of Calcified Nodules and Nodular Calcified Lesions Using Mean Density on Coronary Computed Tomography Angiography

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Calcified nodules (CN) and nodular calcifications (NC) present significant challenges during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) because of their protruding morphology and high rigidity, which often result in inadequate stent expansion and suboptimal procedural outcomes.

Ezetimibe Attenuates Atherosclerosis Associated with Lipid Reduction and Inflammation Inhibition. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
Ezetimibe, as a cholesterol absorption inhibitor, has been shown protecting against atherosclerosis when combined with statin. However, side by side comparison has not been made to evaluate the beneficial effects of ezetimibe alone versus statin. Herein,

Increased coproporphyrin serum levels in healthy volunteers treated with the cholesterol uptake inhibitor ezetimibe

Clinical and Translational Science
Ezetimibe undergoes glucuronidation that results in the active metabolite ezetimibe phenoxy‐glucuronide (ezetimibe‐glucuronide). This phase‐II metabolite was shown to interact with the clinically relevant hepatic transporter organic anion transporting ...

Effects of esaxerenone add‐on therapy versus angiotensin II receptor blocker dose escalation on albuminuria and blood pressure in hypertensive patients with type 2 diabetes: An exploratory randomized study

Journal of Diabetes Investigation, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aims Residual albuminuria remains a major clinical challenge in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and hypertension despite renin–angiotensin system inhibitor therapy. Esaxerenone, a selective nonsteroidal mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist, reduces albuminuria; however, its effects on oxidative stress remain unclear.
