TL;DR: The Kaplan-Meier cumulative MACE-free survival curves with a log-rank test showed that the presence of high ratio of LDL-C/HDL-C was associated with higher incidences of MACE after PCI with DES implantation, associated with cardiovascular events in patients with ACS after PCI.

TL;DR: This study is the first to report on CYP2C19 polymorphisms in the Hakka population, and may help to optimize pharmacotherapy effectiveness by providing personalized medicine to this ethnic group in the near future.

TL;DR: In this paper, the miRNA expression profiles of 6 normal coronary artery (NCA), 12 patients with coronary artery disease including 6 unstable angina (UA) patients and 6 ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients were determined by small RNA sequencing.

TL;DR: Levels of TC, LDL, HDL, and TG were higher in females than males for the elderly Hakka population in southern China, confirming that serum lipid levels varied in age and gender in Hakka patients with acute myocardial infarction.

TL;DR: Investigating serum metabolite profiling between CHD patients and normal coronary artery (NCA) subjects and identifying metabolic biomarkers associated with CHD progression in an ethnic Hakka population in southern China found plasma concentrations for trimetlylamine oxide, choline, creatinine, and carnitine were significantly higher in patients withCHD compared to the NCA cohort.
