Journal Article

Collaborative overview of randomized trials of antiplatelet therapy .1. prevention of death, myocardial-infarction, and stroke by prolonged antiplatelet therapy in various categories of patients

R Altman, +418 more
- 08 Jan 1994 - 
TL;DR: There was no appreciable evidence that either a higher aspirin dose or any other antiplatelet regimen was more effective than medium dose aspirin in preventing vascular events, so in each of the four main high risk categories overall mortality was significantly reduced.
Journal ArticleDOI

MRC/BHF Heart Protection Study of cholesterol-lowering with simvastatin in 5963 people with diabetes: a randomised placebo-controlled trial.

TL;DR: Direct evidence is provided that cholesterol-lowering therapy is beneficial for people with diabetes even if they do not already have manifest coronary disease or high cholesterol concentrations and statin therapy should now be considered routinely for all diabetic patients at sufficiently high risk of major vascular events, irrespective of their initial cholesterol concentrations.
Journal Article

Randomised trial of intravenous streptokinase, oral aspirin, both, or neither among 17,187 cases of suspected acute myocardial infarction: ISIS-2. ISIS-2 (Second International Study of Infarct Survival) Collaborative Group.

TL;DR: 17,187 patients entering 417 hospitals up to 24 h after the onset of suspected acute myocardial infarction were randomized, with placebo control, between a 1 h intravenous infusion of streptokinase and 1 month of 160 mg/day enteric-coated aspirin.
Journal ArticleDOI

The effects of lowering LDL cholesterol with simvastatin plus ezetimibe in patients with chronic kidney disease (Study of Heart and Renal Protection): a randomised placebo-controlled trial

TL;DR: Reduction of LDL cholesterol with simvastatin 20 mg plus ezetimibe 10 mg daily safely reduced the incidence of major atherosclerotic events in a wide range of patients with advanced chronic kidney disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

SLCO1B1 variants and statin-induced myopathy--a genomewide study

TL;DR: Genotyping these variants may help to achieve the benefits of statin therapy more safely and effectively and identify common variants in SLCO1B1 that are strongly associated with an increased risk ofstatin-induced myopathy.
