Intense metabolic control by means of insulin in patients with diabetes mellitus and acute myocardial infarction (DIGAMI 2): effects on mortality and morbidity (2005)

Malmberg, K., Rydén, L., Wedel, H., Birkeland, K., Bootsma, A., Dickstein, K., ...

Aims Patients with diabetes have an unfavourable prognosis after an acute myocardial infarction. In the first DIGAMI study, an insulin-based glucose management improved survival. In DIGAMI 2, three...

Gene expression and intracellular pathways involved in endothelial dysfunction induced by VLDL and oxidised VLDL (2003)

Norata, G.D., Pirillo, A., Callegari, E., Hamsten, A., Catapano, A.L., Eriksson, P.

Objectives: The molecular mechanisms underlying the relationship between elevated plasma concentrations of triglyceride-rich lipoproteins and coronary artery disease remain uncertain. In the present...

Plasma tumour necrosis factor-{alpha} and early carotid atherosclerosis in healthy middle-aged men (2002)

Skoog, T., Dichtl, W., Boquist, S., Skoglund-Andersson, C., Karpe, F., Tang, R., ...

Aims Tumour necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) is a proinflammatory cytokine, which is implicated in some metabolic disorders and may play a role in the development of cardiovascular disease. We examined...

Progression of coronary artery disease in young male post-infarction patients is linked to disturbances of carbohydrate and lipoprotein metabolism and to impaired fibrinolytic function (1998)

Båvenholm, P., De Faire, U., Landou, C., Efendic, S., Nilsson, J., Wiman, B., ...

Aims To assess determinants of coronary artery disease progression in men with previous myocardial infarction. Methods and Results A total of 102 unselected non-diabetic Swedish men (age 40·4±3·6,...

Secondary preventive potential of lipid-lowering drugs: The Bezafibrate Coronary Atherosclerosis Intervention Trial (BECAIT) (1996)

De Faire, U., Grip, L., Nilsson, J., Svane, B., Hamsten, A.

Current experience from coronary angiographic trials using different treatment regimens such as lifestyle changes, resins, nicotinic acid and statins, shows that progression of atheroma can be...

Coronary angiographic changes during 2 years after myocardial infarction largely undetected by repeated tomographic thallium-201 scintigraphy and not reflected by clinical symptoms (1993)

ERICSSON, C. G., HAMSTEN, A., LANDOU, C., MESKO, L., MüLLER-SURR, R., NILSON, J., ...

Repeated coronary angiographies and single photon emission computed tomographies (SPECT) were performed at 9 and 33 months after myocardial infarction (MI) in 47 young men. Coronary lesions were...

Mitogenic activity in connection with coronary angioplasty (1993)

JOHANSSON, S. R., NILSSON, J., HAMSTEN, A., EMANUELSSON, H.

The aim of this study was to assess the plasma mitogenic activity in connection with percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) and the relation to restenosis. Plasma samples were taken on...

Comparative study of echo-and angiocardiographically determined regional left ventricular wall motion in recent myocardial infarction (1984)

LINDVALL, K., HAMSTEN, A., LANDOU, C., SZAMOSI, A., DE FAIRE, U.

We have studied regional left ventricular (LV) wall motion with M-mode, cross-sectional (2D) echocardiography and LV angiography in 50 patients with a recent myocardial infarction. Regional LV wall...

Allele-specific increase in basal transcription of the plasminogen-activator inhibitor 1 gene is associated with myocardial infarction.

Eriksson, P, Kallin, B, Van 't Hooft, F M, Båvenholm, P, Hamsten, A

Increased plasminogen-activator inhibitor 1 (PAI-1) activity is a common finding in patients with coronary heart disease. Here we provide evidence for an independent, etiological role of PAI-1 in...

Oxidized low density lipoprotein induces differentiation and adhesion of human monocytes and the monocytic cell line U937.

Frostegård, J, Nilsson, J, Haegerstrand, A, Hamsten, A, Wigzell, H, Gidlund, M

Hypercholesterolemia is a major risk factor for development of atherosclerosis. In experimental animals fed a high-cholesterol diet, monocytes adhere to the arterial endothelium and penetrate into...

Metabolism of triglyceride-rich lipoproteins during alimentary lipemia.

Karpe, F, Steiner, G, Olivecrona, T, Carlson, L A, Hamsten, A

The metabolism of chylomicron remnants and VLDL was studied in healthy controls and normo- (NTG) and hypertriglyceridemic (HTG) patients with coronary artery disease after intake of an oral fat load....
