Temporal changes and treatment-associated stabilization of aortic ruptured plaques assessed by non-obstructive general angioscopy

Intensive lipid-lowering therapy reduces cardiovascular events by lowering low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and stabilizing coronary vulnerable plaques in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). Whether similar disease-modifying effects occur in ruptured plaques of the aorta remains unknown. Non-o...

Association between serum lipoprotein(a) levels and aortic vulnerable plaques assessed by non-obstructive general angioscopy

Background and aims Elevated lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] levels are recognized as a genetic risk factor for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. Previous coronary imaging studies have linked elevated Lp(a) levels to vulnerable coronary plaque characteristics. However, the relationship between elevated Lp(a) levels and vu...
