Abstract: BACKGROUND/PURPOSE The study evaluated possible factors influencing the regression of coronary artery aneurysm (CAA) in patients with Kawasaki disease (KD) through electrocardiographically gated cardiac computed tomography (CT). METHODS 18 patients with KD exhibited CAAs in… read more here.

Abstract: There is genetic and epidemiological evidence demonstrating the association between Lp(a) levels and cardiovascular disease. While evolocumab reduces Lp(a) by 25-30%, the impact of PCSK9 inhibition on plaque at different Lp(a) levels is unknown. GLAGOV… read more here.
