TL;DR: Smoking emerged as a predictor of vascular events and should be strongly discouraged, and antiphospholipid antibodies and CRP support the role of inflammation and autoimmunity in the development of accelerated atherosclerosis in SLE.
Oxidized Low-Density Lipoprotein Antibodies Pathogenic or Protective? -
TL;DR: In this article, a correlation was found between the existence and titers of anti-oxLDL antibodies and the extent of atherosclerosis and cardiovascular disease (CVD) (Table 1).
Journal ArticleDOI
Are Anti–Oxidized Low-Density Lipoprotein Antibodies Pathogenic or Protective?
TL;DR: On the one hand, a correlation was found between the existence and titers of anti-oxLDL antibodies and the extent of atherosclerosis and cardiovascular disease (CVD), and experimental data indicate that pro-ox LDL antibodies may be protective.
Journal ArticleDOI
Precocious intima-media thickening in patients with primary Sjögren's syndrome
Gaetano Vaudo,Elena Bartoloni Bocci,Yehuda Shoenfeld,Giuseppe Schillaci,Ruihua Wu,Nicoletta Del Papa,Claudio Vitali,Francesco Delle Monache,Simona Marchesi,Elmo Mannarino,Roberto Gerli +10 more
TL;DR: Its association with some features typical of connective tissue diseases, such as the presence of anti-SSA and leukopenia, suggests that the immune dysregulation characterizing this autoimmune disorder may play a key role in inducing early ATS.
Journal ArticleDOI
Anti-idiotypes to oxidized LDL antibodies in intravenous immunoglobulin preparations--possible immunomodulation of atherosclerosis.
Ruihua Wu,Yehuda Shoenfeld,Yaniv Sherer,Madhumita Patnaik,Eiji Matsuura,Boris Gilburd,Takao Koike,James B. Peter +7 more
TL;DR: Whether intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIg) preparations contain anti-oxLDL and anti-anti-OxLDL antibodies is examined to explain the immunomodulating effect of IVIg in atherosclerosis.
