Thus, early diagnosis and treatment of unstable plaques are imperative in averting adverse cardiovascular events. This study aims to identify diagnostic biomarkers for unstable coronary atherosclerotic plaques and investigate the role of immune cell infiltration in their formation.MethodsThe datasets GSE163154 and GSE111782, obtained from the gene expression omn

Recent advances in immunotherapy have significantly improved outcomes for cancer patients. However, therapies such as immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) can lead to immune-related adverse events, including potentially fatal ICI-myocarditis. The diagnosis of ICI-myocarditis is complex, and cardiac MRI plays a crucial role in identifying this condition.

Atherosclerosis, a disease characterized by the accumulation of lipids and inflammatory cells in the arterial wall, is a significant cause of cardiovascular events. A key process in atherosclerosis is the endothelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EndMT), which involves the transformation of endothelial cells into mesenchymal cells, contributing to plaque formation and vascular dysfunction.

Tricaprin improved clinical symptoms and long-term survival. Studying the effects of tricaprin on patients of different ethnicities would be an ideal next step to gather more evidence in favor of the drug.
