PCSK9 and LDL-C: The Role of Exercise [PDF]
s Purpose Proprotein Convertase Subtilisin/Kexin type 9 (PCSK9) is a pivotal regulator of low lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) and LDL receptor (LDLR) metabolism, and the interest in PCSK9 has increased in cardiovascular diseases.

Effects of Alirocumab and Evolocumab on Cardiovascular Mortality and LDL-C: Stratified According to the Baseline LDL-C Levels. [PDF]
Background: A meta-analysis was conducted to determine whether the cardiovascular mortality and lipid-lowering effects of alirocumab and evolocumab are influenced by various baseline low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels. Methods: We searched for literature published before June 2023.

The relationship between LDL-c and platelet count with lacunar stroke findings on brain MRI [PDF]
Objectives. Lacunar stroke or cerebral small vessel disease accounts for 15-30% of all ischemic stroke. The golden standard to identify lacunar stroke is by using MR imaging with diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) sequence.

Does Pentraxin-3 contribute to the reduction of low-density lipoprotein levels by statin therapy? [PDF]
Statins have been shown to decrease inflammatory markers, especially high sensitivity C reactive protein (hsCRP), in a dose-dependent manner. Pentraxin-3 (PTX3) is another important inflammatory biomarker from the pentraxin family that provides useful ...
