Article Synopsis
  • HDL is well-known for its protective effects against atherosclerosis, but its role in heart failure (HF) is still unclear and debated.
  • * Research suggests that HDL may help protect the heart through its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and endothelial functions, with high levels of HDL-C linked to lower instances of HF.
  • * The primary protein in HDL, Apo A-I, and the enzyme PON-1 are key components in mediating HDL's protective effects, potentially influencing the progression of heart failure.

The influence of SGLT-1 on perivascular preadipocytes (PVPACs) and vascular remodeling is not well understood. This study aimed to elucidate the role and mechanism of SGLT-1-mediated PVPACs bioactivity. PVPACs were cultured in vitro and applied ex vivo to the carotid arteries of mice using a lentivirus-based thermosensitive in situ gel (TISG).

Background: To investigate the correlation between lg (circSCMH1/miR-874) and acute coronary syndrome (ACS), acute myocardial infarction (AMI), and carotid plaque stability.

Methods: 701 patients were divided into stable coronary artery disease (SCAD), ACS, and control groups. Furthermore, 225 patients who underwent carotid ultrasound were selected from the above 701 patients and were divided into low-risk plaque, medium-to-high risk plaque, and control (without carotid plaques) groups.

Background And Aims: We aimed to investigate whether neck circumference (NC) can predict metabolic syndrome (MetS), coronary calcification and lesion, and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs).

Methods: A total of 867 patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) over 60 years old from the Second Hospital of Shandong University, who had undergone coronary computed tomography, were randomly selected for a retrospective analysis. The subjects were divided into male and female groups, NC quartile 1-4 groups (Q1-Q4 groups), non-multivessel coronary disease (non-MVCD) and multi-vessel coronary disease (MVCD) groups.
