Targeted proteomics improves cardiovascular risk prediction in secondary prevention

Nick S. Nurmohamed et al.

Summary: The study demonstrates that a proteome-based risk model outperforms a clinical risk model in predicting recurrent ASCVD events. Neutrophil-related pathways were associated with cardiovascular events in low CRP patients, indicating residual inflammatory risk beyond traditional pathways.

Plaque Rupture, Compared With Plaque Erosion, Is Associated With a Higher Level of Pancoronary Inflammation

Akihiro Nakajima et al.

Summary: This study aimed to compare the coronary inflammation levels between plaque rupture and plaque erosion using pericoronary adipose tissue (PCAT) attenuation. The results showed that plaque rupture had higher PCAT attenuation, suggesting that pancoronary inflammation plays a more significant role in plaque rupture.

Immune Mechanisms of Plaque Instability

Teresa Gerhardt et al.

Summary: This review discusses the crucial role of inflammation in atherosclerosis-related diseases and explores key immune cells and other maladaptive immune phenomena that contribute to plaque instability and disruption. In addition, it addresses the impact of systemic crises, COVID-19 disease, and gut dysbiosis on atherosclerosis progression. The review also summarizes the differential role of the immune system in plaque rupture and erosion, as well as the limitations of animal models.

Optical coherence tomography in coronary atherosclerosis assessment and intervention

Makoto Araki et al.

Summary: Optical coherence tomography (OCT) has been widely used in research on and clinical application of coronary atherosclerosis. It can accurately identify culprit plaque pathology and detect sequelae from percutaneous coronary interventions that might be missed by angiography, improving clinical outcomes.

Randomized Trial of Interleukin-6 Receptor Inhibition in Patients With Acute ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction

Kaspar Broch et al.

Summary: The study showed that tocilizumab, an interleukin-6 receptor inhibitor, increased myocardial salvage in patients with acute STEMI, reduced microvascular obstruction, but did not significantly decrease final infarct size.

Plaque erosion and acute coronary syndromes: phenotype, molecular characteristics and future directions

Akl C. Fahed et al.

Summary: Atherosclerotic plaque erosion is increasingly recognized as a common feature in acute coronary syndromes. Recent research suggests that conservative treatment may be an option for patients with plaque erosion. Advanced imaging techniques and basic science experiments have provided insights into the characteristics of plaque erosion.

Targeting Inflammatory Pathways in Cardiovascular Disease: The Inflammasome, Interleukin-1, Interleukin-6 and Beyond

Peter Libby

Summary: Inflammation plays a causal role in human atherosclerosis, and recent clinical trials point towards potential novel treatments. This review evaluates the current state of anti-inflammatory interventions, focusing on innate immunity and utilizing biomarkers to guide therapy allocation. The validation of decades of research in recent clinical investigations provides a strong motivation for further efforts to target inflammation in atherosclerosis.
