Association of lowering apolipoprotein B with cardiovascular outcomes across various lipid-lowering therapies: Systematic review and meta-analysis of trials (2019)
Journal Article
Khan, S. U., Khan, M. U., Valavoor, S., Khan, M. S., Okunrintemi, V., Mamas, M. A., …Michos, E. D. (2020). Association of lowering apolipoprotein B with cardiovascular outcomes across various lipid-lowering therapies: Systematic review and meta-analysis of trials. European Journal of Preventive Cardiology, 27(12), 1255-1268. https://doi.org/10.1177/2047487319871733

Aims
The effect of therapeutic lowering of apolipoprotein B (apoB) on mortality and major adverse cardiovascular events is uncertain. It is also unclear whether these potential effects vary by different lipid-lowering strategies.

Methods
A total... Read More about Association of lowering apolipoprotein B with cardiovascular outcomes across various lipid-lowering therapies: Systematic review and meta-analysis of trials.

Dietary components and risk of cardiovascular disease and all-cause mortality: A review of evidence from meta-analyses (2019)
Journal Article
Watson, L., Loke, Y., Mallen, C., Mamas, M., Gulati, M., Kwok, C., …Wu, P. (2019). Dietary components and risk of cardiovascular disease and all-cause mortality: A review of evidence from meta-analyses. European Journal of Preventive Cardiology, 26(13), 1415-1429. https://doi.org/10.1177/2047487319843667

Aims
The optimal diet for cardiovascular health is controversial. The aim of this review is to summarize the highest level of evidence and rank the risk associated with each individual component of diet within its food group.

Hospital readmissions remain a continued challenge in the care of patients with heart failure (HF). This study aims to examine the rates, temporal trends, predictors and causes of 30-day unplanned readmissions after admission with HF. Patients hospit...

Globally, cardiovascular disease is the most common cause of mortality in women accounting for 1 in 3 deaths. There remains an under recognition of cardiovascular disease as well as a lack of awareness of risk in women. Promotion of cardiovascular di...
