Aims The effect of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol-lowering therapy with alirocumab or
evolocumab on individual clinical efficacy and safety endpoints remains unclear. We aimed to …

… Slave: The Slave UE’s role is similar to that of an underlaid UE under network coverage. For
example, if two slave UEs outside network coverage are D2D-capable, they may engage in …

Human ribonucleases (RNases) are members of a large superfamily of rapidly evolving
homologous proteins. Upon completion of the human genome, eight catalytically active RNases (…

Background— High-density lipoprotein (HDL)–raising therapies are currently under intense
evaluation, but the effects of HDL may be highly heterogeneous. We therefore compared the …

Background— Endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) are thought to contribute to endothelial
recovery after arterial injury. We therefore compared in vivo reendothelialization capacity of …

A new experimental apparatus, designed principally for a high sensitivity search for ν μ → ν
τ oscillation, has been successlly constructed and made operational by the CHORUS …

The World Health Organization (WHO) and other organizations report that the prevalence of
human diseases during the past decade is rapidly increasing. Population growth and the …

After completion of the data taking for the ν μ →ν τ oscillation search, the CHORUS lead–scintillator
calorimeter was used in the 1998 run as an active target. High-statistics samples of …

Objective— Xanthine oxidase (XO), a major source of superoxide, has been implicated in
endothelial dysfunction in atherosclerosis. Mechanisms, however, leading to endothelial XO …

Prehypertension is a highly frequent condition associated with an increased cardiovascular
risk. Endothelial dysfunction is thought to promote the development of hypertension and …
