Prognostic Value of Myeloperoxidase in Patients with Chest Pain

TL;DR: Myeloperoxidase levels, in contrast to troponin T, creatine kinase MB isoform, and C-reactive protein levels, identified patients at risk for cardiac events in the absence of myocardial necrosis, highlighting its potential usefulness for risk stratification among patients who present with chest pain.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of the CETP inhibitor evacetrapib administered as monotherapy or in combination with statins on HDL and LDL cholesterol: a randomized controlled trial.

TL;DR: Compared with placebo or statin monotherapy, evacetrapib as monotherapy or in combination with statins increased HDL-C levels and decreased LDL-C Levels, and the effects on cardiovascular outcomes require further investigation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prognostic Value of Myeloperoxidase in Patients With Chest Pain

TL;DR: Elevated plasma myeloperoxidase concentration appears to be a marker of vulnerable coronary artery plaque, and it helps to identify patients at risk for major adverse cardiac events independently of evidence that myocardial necrosis is present.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of a Potent and Selective PPAR-α Agonist in Patients With Atherogenic Dyslipidemia or Hypercholesterolemia: Two Randomized Controlled Trials

TL;DR: In patients with dyslipidemia, LY518674 and fenofibrate decreased triglycerides and increased HDL-C but also increased serum creatinine but did not further reduce LDL-C in combination with atorvastatin.
