PCSK9 Inhibitors: The Evolving Future
ABSTRACT Introduction PCSK9 inhibitors are a novel class of medications that lower LDL cholesterol (LDL‐C) by increasing LDL receptor activity, promoting clearance of LDL‐C from the bloodstream. Over the years, PCSK9 inhibitors have been explored as adjunct therapies to statins or as monotherapy in high‐risk cardiovascular patients.

Label Distribution Learning [PDF]
Although multi-label learning can deal with many problems with label ambiguity, it does not fit some real applications well where the overall distribution of the importance of the labels matters. This paper proposes a novel learning paradigm named \emph{label distribution learning} (LDL) for such kind of applications.

The giant low-density lipoproteins (LDL) accumulation in the multi-layer artery wall model [PDF]
The mathematical, four-layer model of the LDL transport across the arterial wall including the sensitivity of the transport coefficients to the wall shear stress (WSS) is studied. In that model the advection-diffusion equations in porous media are used to determine the LDL concentration profiles in each layer of the arterial wall.

In vivo metabolism of LDL subfractions in patients with heterozygous FH on statin therapy
LDL can be subfractionated into buoyant (1.020–1.029 g/ml−1), intermediate (1.030–1.040 g/ml−1), and dense (1.041–1.066 g/ml−1) LDLs. We studied the rebound of these LDL-subfractions after LDL apheresis in seven patients with heterozygous familial ...
