The Association of the Cholesterol Efflux Capacity with the Paraoxonase 1 Q192R Genotype and the Paraoxonase Activity
CONCLUSIONS: The PON1 Q192R R allele is associated with reduced CEC in Japanese people without ASCVD. Further studies on the impact of this association on the severity of atherosclerosis and ASCVD development are thus called for.PMID:38508740 | DOI:10.5551/jat.64711 (Source: Journal of Atherosclerosis and Thrombosis)

Association between Hemoglobin A1c and Renal Arteriolar Sclerosis in Subjects Presenting without any Apparent Kidney Dysfunction
CONCLUSIONS: Elevated high-normal HbA1c levels are considered to be independent risk factors for arteriolar wall thickening. Subclinical renal arteriolar sclerosis may develop in patients with prediabetic HbA1c levels.PMID:38494705 | DOI:10.5551/jat.64236 (Source: Journal of Atherosclerosis and Thrombosis)

Identification of a Compound Heterozygous LMF1 Variants in a Patient with Severe Hypertriglyceridemia - Case Report and Literature Review
This study described a Chinese patient with severe HTG carrying compound heterozygous variants of a rare nonsense variant p.W168X in exon 3 and a missense variant p.R416Q in exon 9 in the LMF1 gene. These heterozygous variants account for his family's decreased lipase activity and mass, which caused the FCS phenotype.PMID:38462482 | DOI:10.5551/jat.64697 (Source: Journal of Atherosclerosis and Thrombosis)

Association between Vascular Calcification and Intraplaque Hemorrhage in Coronary Atherosclerosis from Autopsy: The Hisayama Study
CONCLUSIONS: The present findings suggest that vascular calcification is significantly associated with intraplaque hemorrhage. The association between vascular calcification and intraplaque hemorrhage may decrease above a certain size of the calcification area.PMID:38462483 | DOI:10.5551/jat.64394 (Source: Journal of Atherosclerosis and Thrombosis)
