Purpose Of Review: In this article, we will review evidence for ketamine's role in chronic pain and mental health conditions, its current legal status and abuse potential, and the regulations related to its administration in stand-alone infusion clinics, as well as future considerations.

Analogous to the historic rise of lidocaine clinics, ketamine clinics are demonstrating a similar pattern of unregulated growth.

Background: The cholesterol content of circulating triglyceride-rich lipoproteins is characterized as remnant cholesterol, although little is known about its role in the development of cardiovascular disease (CVD) outcomes, all-cause mortality or transplant failure in kidney transplant recipients (KTRs). Our primary aim was to investigate the prospective association of remnant cholesterol and the risk of CVD events in renal transplant recipients with secondary aims evaluating remnant cholesterol and renal graft failure and all-cause mortality among participants in the Folic Acid for Vascular Outcome Reduction in Transplantation (FAVORIT) trial.

Methods: Among 4110 enrolled participants, 98 were excluded for missing baseline remnant cholesterol levels and covariates.
