Neurocognitive effects associated with proprotein convertase subtilisin-kexin type 9 inhibitor use: a narrative review

open access: yesTherapeutic Advances in Drug Safety, 2021
Neurocognitive adverse events have been observed with the widespread use of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA reductase inhibitors or “statins,” which reduce low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels and subsequently cardiovascular risk. The United

Apolipoprotein F is reduced in humans with steatosis and controls plasma triglyceride‐rich lipoprotein metabolism

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Hepatic APOF transcript levels correlate inversely with plasma TG and hepatic steatosis in humans. ApoF expression in mice promotes VLDL‐TG production and lipoprotein remnant clearance in mice. Abstract Background NAFLD affects nearly 25% of the global population. Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the most common cause of death among patients with NAFLD,
