Chalmers +23 more
TL;DR: The Program on the Surgical Control of the Hyperlipidemias (POSCH) randomized clinical trial was designed to test whether cholesterol lowering induced by the partial ileal bypass operation would favorably affect overall mortality or mortality due to coronary heart disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Coronary arteriographic changes can be used in atherosclerosis intervention trials as a limited surrogate end point for certain clinical coronary events and is statistically compelling for overall mortality and atherosclerotic coronary heart disease mortality.
Journal ArticleDOI

Henry Buchwald,John P. Matts,Laurie L. Fitch,Richard L. Varco,Gilbert S. Campbell,Malcolm B. Pearce,Albert E. Yellin,Robert D. Smink,Henry S. Sawin,Christian T. Campos,Betty J. Hansen,John M. Long +11 more
TL;DR: This paper is the first detailed presentation of POSCH design and methodology, including descriptions of study design, implementation, and data collection, including data processing, quality assurance/quality surveillance, and patient safety monitoring.
Journal ArticleDOI
Plasma lipoproteins and coronary arteriography in subjects in the program on the surgical control of the hyperlipidemias. Preliminary report.
TL;DR: This preliminary report of 10% of the recruitment objective of the project supports the currently held views of the lipid--atherosclerosis hypothesis regarding the effects of age-total plasma cholesterol, LDL--ch cholesterol, and HDL--cholesterol on the extent of coronary atherosclerotic plaques, as determined by coronary arteriography.
Journal ArticleDOI
Program on surgical control of the hyperlipidemias (POSCH): Recruitment experience
TL;DR: The Program on Surgical Control of the Hyperlipidemias (POSCH) is an investigator-initiated NHLBI grant-funded secondary coronary heart disease intervention trial using partial ileal bypass (PIB) for lipid reduction.
