Safety and Effectiveness of Evolocumab During Acute and Sub-acute Phases of Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS): A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis
Background: Coronary artery disease (CAD), manifested mainly as acute coronary syndrome (ACS), continues to be a major cause of mortality globally and a significant contributing factor to the global disease...
Conclusion: Early evolocumab therapy initiation was associated with a significant decrease in LDL-C levels and was not associated with an increased risk of adverse effects in comparison to placebo.

Management of Statin Intolerant Patients in the Era of Novel Lipid Lowering Therapies: A Critical Approach in Clinical Practice - PubMed
Source : https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36983444/
Statins are the cornerstone of lipid-lowering therapies effective for cardiovascular risk reduction. Although they are generally well tolerated, statin intolerance (SI) is frequent in clinical practice, and it is usually...
Relevance: In this review, we evaluated SI management focusing on non-statin lipid lowering therapies and their implications in lipid lowering approaches in clinical practice.

Interplay between microRNAs, Serum Proprotein Convertase Subtilisin/Kexin Type 9 (PCSK9), and Lipid Parameters in Patients with Very High Lipoprotein(a) Treated with PCSK9 Inhibitors - PubMed

The .gov means it's official. Federal government websites often end in .gov or .mil. Before sharing sensitive information, make sure you're on a federal government site. The site is secure....
Conclusions/Relevance: Our results support a role for miR-483-5p in regulating circulating PCSK9 in vivo. The difference in expression of miR-191-5p, miR-224-5p, and miR-337-3p between patients and control subjects suggests their possible role in the pathogenesis of coronary artery disease.
