Serious Adverse Events Among SPRINT Trial Participants Taking Statins at Baseline
BACKGROUND Real-world evidence of statin side effects is potentially biased because statin use is neither randomized nor unblinded. An innovative study design can mitigate these biases. For example, in the recent ASCOT-LLA trial, patient-reported adverse events such as muscle pain and weakness were higher in the non-randomized and non-blinded setting than in the randomized, blinded setting. Les...
متن کاملBaseline echocardiographic values for adult male rats.
BACKGROUND Because of safety, repeatability, and portability, clinical echocardiography is well established as a standard for cardiac anatomy, cardiac function, and hemodynamics. Similarly, application of echocardiography in commonly used rat experimental models would be worthwhile. The use of noninvasive ultrasound imaging in the rat is a potential replacement for more invasive terminal techni...
متن کاملSMARCAL1 Resolves Replication Stress at ALT Telomeres
Cancer cells overcome replicative senescence by exploiting mechanisms of telomere elongation, a process often accomplished by reactivation of the enzyme telomerase. However, a subset of cancer cells lack telomerase activity and rely on the alternative lengthening of telomeres (ALT) pathway, a recombination-based mechanism of telomere elongation. Although the mechanisms regulating ALT are not fu...
متن کاملRespiratory impedance in healthy subjects: baseline values and bronchodilator response.
Because of the minimal demand for cooperation by the subject, the forced oscillation technique is increasingly employed in routine lung function testing. However, comprehensive and device-independent values of respiratory impedance at baseline and after bronchodilation have not been established for healthy adults. The aim of this multicentre study was to collect impedance data from 4 to 26 Hz i...
متن کاملOral statins and increased bone-mineral density in postmenopausal women.
Experimental evidence suggests that the cholesterol-lowering drugs statins increase bone formation. We report a significant increase of bone-mineral density associated with taking statins in postmenopausal women.
