Atherosclerosis, a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by the accumulation of lipids and immune cells within arterial walls, remains leading cause cardiovascular morbidity mortality worldwide. Oxidative stress inflammation are central to its pathogenesis, driving endothelial dysfunction, foam cell formation, plaque instability. Emerging evidence highlights potential bioactive compounds with antioxidant anti-inflammatory properties mitigate these processes promote vascular health. This review explores mechanisms through which compounds-such as polyphenols, carotenoids, flavonoids, omega-3 fatty acids, coenzyme Q10, other natural compounds-modulate oxidative in atherosclerosis. It examines their effects on key molecular pathways, including inhibition reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, suppression nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB), modulation cytokines. By integrating current knowledge, this underscores therapeutic dietary supplemental complementary strategies for managing atherosclerosis, paving way future research clinical applications.

Obicetrapib, a selective cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) inhibitor, reduces low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), non-high-density (non-HDL-C), particles, and apolipoproteins, when added to high-intensity statin in patients with dyslipidemia.To evaluate the safety lipid-altering efficacy of obicetrapib plus ezetimibe combination therapy as an adjunct therapy.This double-blind, randomized, phase 2 trial administered 10 mg (n = 40), 39), or placebo 40) for 12 weeks LDL-C >70 mg/dL triglycerides (TG) <400 mg/dL, on stable statin. Endpoints included concentrations lipids, proprotein convertase subtilisin kexin type 9 (PCSK9), safety, tolerability.Ninety-seven were primary analysis (mean age 62.6 years, 63.9% male, 84.5% white, average body mass index 30.9 kg/m2). decreased from baseline week by 63.4%, 43.5%, 6.35% combination, monotherapy, groups, respectively (p<0.0001 vs. placebo). levels <100, <70, <55 achieved 100%, 93.5%, 87.1%, respectively, taking combination. Both active treatments also significantly reduced non-HDL-C, apolipoprotein B, total small LDL particles. Obicetrapib was well tolerated no issues identified.The lowered atherogenic lipid parameters, safe top elevated LDL-C.

Nuts are nutrient-rich foods that contain many bioactive compounds beneficial for cardiovascular health. Higher consumption of nuts has been associated with a reduced risk several diseases (CVD) in prospective cohort studies, including 19% and 25% lower CVD incidence mortality, respectively, 24% 27% coronary heart disease respectively. An 18% stroke 15% atrial fibrillation, total mortality have also observed. The role incidence, subtypes, peripheral arterial failure less consistent. This narrative review summarizes recommendations by clinical practice guidelines governmental organizations, epidemiological evidence outcomes, nut-containing dietary patterns, potential mechanisms reduction, future research directions, such as the use biomarkers to help better assess nut intake. Although there still some uncertainties around prevention which require further research, summarized this review, is substantial amount supports consuming will positive impact on primary secondary CVD.

Background: Aging is a key risk factor for atherosclerosis progression that associated with increased incidence of ischemic events in supplied organs, including stroke, coronary events, limb ischemia, or renal failure. Cardiovascular disease the leading cause death and major disability adults ≥ 75 years age. Atherosclerotic occlusive affects everyday activity, quality life, it reduced life expectancy. As most multicenter randomized trials exclude elderly very patients, particularly those severe comorbidities, physical cognitive dysfunctions, frailty, residence nursing home, there insufficient data on management older patients presenting atherosclerotic lesions outside territory. This results serious critical gaps knowledge lack guidance appropriate medical treatment. In addition, due to variety comorbidities elderly, average daily number pills taken by octogenarians exceeds nine. Polypharmacy frequently drug therapy problems related interactions, toxicity, falls injury, delirium, non-adherence. Therefore, we have attempted gather treatment extra-cardiac indicating where some evidence are evidence-based medicine. Public PubMed databases were searched review existing effectiveness lipid-lowering, antithrombotic, new glucose-lowering medications disease.
