Targeting high-sensitivity C-reactive protein levels in acute coronary syndrome patients undergoing contemporary lipid-lowering therapy: a sub-analysis of the HIJ-PROPER trial.
We describe the incidence, timing, and characteristics of stent thrombosis and its consequences in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) in the AUGUSTUS trial<sup>1</sup> who received a coronary stent during their qualifying admission (acute coronary syndrome [ACS] or elective percutaneous coronary intervention [PCI]) and the randomized treatment effects of low-dose aspirin (compared with placebo) and apixaban (compared with vitamin K antagonist [VKA]) on the risk of stent thrombosis.
Few studies have investigated the relationship between PCSK9 levels and the severity of coronary artery disease in patients with acute coronary syndrome; thus, we herein aimed to investigate this relationship in patients with non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) who underwent coronary angiography.
We describe the incidence, timing, and characteristics of stent thrombosis and its consequences in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) in the AUGUSTUS trial<sup>1</sup> who received a coronary stent during their qualifying admission (acute coronary syndrome [ACS] or elective percutaneous coronary intervention [PCI]) and the randomized treatment effects of low-dose aspirin (compared with placebo) and apixaban (compared with vitamin K antagonist [VKA]) on the risk of stent thrombosis.
Information on the relationship between circulating cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) levels and coronary heart disease (CHD) incidence (and also, therefore, acute coronary syndrome [ACS]) is conflicting.

Recently, three randomized trials reported that dual antithrombotic treatments (DATs) including non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants (NOACs) and a P2Y12 inhibitor without aspirin were associated with significantly less bleeding than vitamin K antagonist (VKA)-based triple antithrombotic therapy (TAT) in atrial fibrillation (AF) patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) or undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).

For patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) treated with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), it is unclear whether angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEI) or angiotensin receptor blockers (ARB) are associated with reduced mortality, particularly with preserved left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF).
Among 36 CR and 36 non-CR acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients, the platelet functions were evaluated by VerifyNow P2Y12 assay (turbidimetric-based optical detection) and DNA methylation levels on two fragments of the CGI from the GCK were investigated through bisulfite pyrosequencing methods.
Information on the relationship between circulating cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) levels and coronary heart disease (CHD) incidence (and also, therefore, acute coronary syndrome [ACS]) is conflicting.
Incidence and reasons of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) discontinuation and switching between P2Y12 inhibitors in acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients treated with a stent have been poorly studied.
The prognostic utility of serum albumin level as a predictor of survival in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) has attracted considerable attention.
Other cardiovascular complications seen in GBS patients were Increased pro-BNP(26.04%), raised troponin T levels(3.12%), acute coronary syndrome(2.08%), heart failure(2.08%) and abnormal 2D echo findings(8.33%).
Information on the relationship between circulating cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) levels and coronary heart disease (CHD) incidence (and also, therefore, acute coronary syndrome [ACS]) is conflicting.
This sLOX-1 plays a key role in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis, and elevated sLOX-1 concentrations correlate with thin or ruptured fibrous caps in patients with acute coronary syndrome.
MicroRNA-9 overexpression suppresses vulnerable atherosclerotic plaque and enhances vascular remodeling through negative regulation of the p38MAPK pathway via OLR1 in acute coronary syndrome.
