Journal ArticleDOI

Considerations in choice of a clinical endpoint for AIDS clinical trials

TL;DR: It is recommended that survival be the primary endpoint of antiretroviral trials, and that all opportunistic events experienced by patients, not just the first, be collected and summarized.
Journal ArticleDOI

Lipoprotein particles, insulin, adiponectin, C-reactive protein and risk of coronary heart disease among men with metabolic syndrome

TL;DR: Number of HDL particles, especially medium-sized HDL particles and WBC count were independent predictors of CHD death among men with MetSyn, and in multivariate models adjusting for smoking and LDL-C, medium HDL-P and W BC count remained independent predictor ofCHD death.
Journal ArticleDOI

Association between baseline risk factors, cigarette smoking, and CHD mortality after 10.5 years

TL;DR: Intervention on blood pressure and blood lipids is particularly important among cigarette smokers because of their increased risk of CHD death.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Multiple Risk Factor Intervention Trial (MRFIT)--importance then and now.

TL;DR: The data of high precision show that the relationship between serum cholesterol and CHD is not a threshold one, with increased risk confined to the two highest quintiles, but rather is a continuously graded one that powerfully affects risk for the great majority of middle-aged American men.
