and the highest LDL‐C level in the past 2 years. Core laboratory lipid levels were drawn at enrollment. Among 7627 patients, 2787 (36.5%) had no LDL‐C levels measured in the 2 years before enrollment. Patients wit...
METHODS: In a double-blind, randomized crossover study, 15 obese diet-treated T2D patients received cerivastatin (0.4 mg/day) or placebo for 3 months. Circulating ox-LDL levels were measured fasting and during a euglycaemic-hyperinsulinaemic clamp (approximately 5.5 mmol/l; EHC) and a ...
As previously reported, patients with persistent RIR were more frequently women, were active smokers, or had diabetes mellitus 21, 22. The predictive value of elevated hsCRP for long-term clinical ischemic events in patients undergoing PCI has been previously described and is explained by the role...
The causal relation between elevated levels of LDL-C and cardiovascular disease has been largely established by experimental and clinical studies. Thus, the reduction of LDL-C levels is a major target for the prevention of cardiovascular disease. In the last decades, statins have been used as the...
Moreover, Lp(a) inhibits the inflammatory response to LPS. As there is great variation in Lp(a) levels among individuals (76), this may account for variability in inflammatory response to infections. The Exception: Candida HDL may promote fungal infections. A recent study found that infusion ...
In the ESC-EORP EUROASPIRE V survey, after hospitalization for a coronary event women were treated less often with LLT (80.3% vs 85.6%) and received high-intensity LLT less often than men (46.0% vs 51.3%), even with higher levels of TC, LDL-C and non-HDL-C [37]. These results ...
