As such, lowering LDL-C is a central tenet in all ASCVD prevention guidelines, which recommend matching the intensity of LDL-C lowering with the absolute risk of the patient. Unfortunately, issues such as difficulty with long-term adherence to statin therapy and inability to achieve desired LDL-C thresholds with statins alone results in residual elevated ASCVD risk. Non-statin therapies generally provide similar risk reduction per mmol/L of LDL-C reduction and are included by major society guidelines as part of the treatment algorithm for managing LDL-C. Per the 2022 American College of Cardiology Expert Consensus Decision Pathway, patients with ASCVD are recommended to achieve both an LDL-C reduction ≥50% and an LDL-C threshold of <55 mg/dL in patients at very high-risk and <70 mg/dL in those not at very high risk. Patients with familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) but without ASCVD should lower LDL-C to <100 mg/dL. For patients who remain above LDL-C thresholds with maximally tolerated statin therapy plus lifestyle changes, non-statin therapy warrants strong consideration. While several non-statin therapies have been granted FDA approval for managing hypercholesterolemia (eg, ezetimibe, Proprotein Convertase Subtilisin/Kexin 9 [PCSK9] monoclonal antibodies, and bempedoic acid), the focus of the current review is on inclisiran, a novel small interfering RNA therapy that inhibits the production of the PCSK9 protein. Inclisiran is currently FDA approved as an adjunct to statin therapy in patients with clinical ASCVD or heterozygous FH who require additional LDL-lowering. The drug is administered by subcutaneous injection twice a year, after an initial baseline and 3 month dose.

A systematic review using the databases EBSCO, PubMed, and ScienceDirect databases was searched until October of 2022 to find relevant studies on the topic of gene polymorphisms on risk factors for CHD, especially for the factors associated with single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). The risk of bias and quality assessment was evaluated by Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) guidelines. From keyword search results, a total of 6243 articles were identified, which were subsequently narrowed to 14 articles using prespecified inclusion criteria. The results suggested that there were 33 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) that can potentially increase the risk factors and clinical symptoms of CHD. This study also indicated that gene polymorphisms had a potential role in increasing CHD risk factors that were causally associated with atherosclerosis, increased homocysteine, immune/inflammatory response, Low-Density Lipoprotein (LDL), arterial lesions, and reduction of therapeutic effectiveness. In conclusion, the findings of this study indicate that SNPs may increase risk factors for CHD and SNPs show different effects between individuals. This demonstrates that knowledge of SNPs on CHD risk factors can be used to develop biomarkers for diagnostics and therapeutic response prediction to decide successful therapy and become the basis for defining personalized medicine in future.</p>","PeriodicalId":23597,"journal":{"name":"Vascular Health and Risk Management","volume":"19 ","pages":"289-301"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2023-05-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pub/pmc/oa_pdf/37/1d/vhrm-19-289.PMC10167955.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9460591","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"The Effectiveness of <i>Nigella sativa</i> and Ginger as Appetite Suppressants: An Experimental Study on Healthy Wistar Rats.","authors":"Lubna Al Asoom, Maha A Alassaf, Najd S AlSulaiman, Dhuha N Boumarah, Aldana M Almubireek, Gaeda K Alkaltham, Hussain A Alhawaj, Taleb Alkhamis, Nazish Rafique, Ahmed Alsunni, Rabia Latif, Seham Alsaif, Dana Almohazey, Sayed AbdulAzeez, J Francis Borgio","doi":"10.2147/VHRM.S396295","DOIUrl":"10.2147/VHRM.S396295","url":null,"abstract":"<p><strong>Background: </strong>Obesity is a global pandemic that is associated with high morbidity and mortality. Natural herbs are commonly used for weight reduction and appetite suppression. Therefore, we aim to investigate the role and mechanism of <i>Nigella sativa</i> (NS) and ginger on weight reduction and appetite regulation.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>This experimental study was performed at Imam Abdulrahman Bin Faisal University. Twenty-five female rats were distributed into 5 groups: NS (oral 1000mg/kg), Ginger (500 mg/kg), NS-ginger (both interventions), a positive control (intraperitoneal 50 μg/kg Liraglutide), and a negative control. Each intervention was given for 9 weeks. Food intake and body weight were assessed weekly. Serum lipid profile and peptides involved in appetite control (cholecystokinin (CCK), glucagon-like peptide 1(GLP-1), gastric inhibitory polypeptide (GIP), ghrelin, peptide YY, and orexin) were assayed at the end of the experiment.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>None of the interventions showed a statistically significant difference regarding food consumption or weight gain (p > 0.05). However, the three interventions significantly reduced total cholesterol (TC), NS and NS-ginger significantly increased HDL, NS increased ghrelin and ginger increased orexin.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>The present dose and duration of NS, ginger, or in combination did not demonstrate a significant change in body weight or food consumption in comparison to the negative or positive controls. However, NS or ginger has improved the lipid profile by reducing TC and increasing HDL. In addition, NS or ginger can influence some of the peptides involved in appetite regulation such as the increase in ghrelin induced by NS and the reduction of orexin induced by ginger. We believe that these latter effects are novel and might indicate a promising effect of these natural products on appetite regulation.</p>","PeriodicalId":23597,"journal":{"name":"Vascular Health and Risk Management","volume":"19 ","pages":"1-11"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2023-01-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pub/pmc/oa_pdf/c9/da/vhrm-19-1.PMC9840438.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10549411","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
