clofibric acid and Coronary Heart Disease

clofibric acid has been researched along with Coronary Heart Disease in 38 studies

Clofibric Acid: An antilipemic agent that is the biologically active metabolite of CLOFIBRATE.

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"MEDLINE was searched for articles published from 1990 through 2006 using the terms hypertriglyceridemia, dyslipidemia, and coronary heart disease, with subheadings for risk, statins, niacin, fibrates, thiazolidinediones, and omega-3 fatty acids."4.84Hypertriglyceridemia and cardiovascular risk reduction. ( Jacobson, TA; Miller, M; Schaefer, EJ, 2007)
"Niacin treatment (alone) was compared with etofibrate and niacin combination to treat patients with high-density lipoprotein <35 mg/dl and without hypertriglyceridemia."2.69Effect of niacin and etofibrate association on subjects with coronary artery disease and serum high-density lipoprotein cholesterol <35 mg/dl. ( Caramelli, B; Mansur, AP; Ramires, JA; Serrano, CV; Spósito, AC, 1999)
"Clofibric acid was only effective in reducing triglycerides."2.67Diabetes Intervention Study. Multi-intervention trial in newly diagnosed NIDDM. ( Dude, H; Fischer, S; Hanefeld, M; Julius, U; Rothe, G; Schmechel, H; Schulze, J; Schwanebeck, U, 1991)
"The niacin model was moderately different from the statin model (K = 7."2.45Meta-analysis of the relationship between non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol reduction and coronary heart disease risk. ( Jacobson, TA; Robinson, JG; Smith, BJ; Wang, S, 2009)
"Coronary heart disease is a major cause of mortality in women in Western industrialised countries, particularly after the age of 50 years, coinciding with the onset of the menopause and potentially adverse metabolic changes that occur during the transitional peri-menopausal and post-menopausal periods."2.44HDL-C in post-menopausal women: An important therapeutic target. ( Collins, P, 2008)
"Niacin has a more potent effect on HDL-C levels, whereas data on cardiovascular event rate reduction are limited."2.43Efficacy and safety of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol-increasing compounds: a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials. ( Birjmohun, RS; Hutten, BA; Kastelein, JJ; Stroes, ES, 2005)
" Recently conducted metabolic and pharmacokinetic drug-drug interaction studies using gemfibrozil or fenofibrate in combination with five commonly used statins demonstrated a widely different drug interaction potential for these two fibrates."2.43Statin/fibrate combination in patients with metabolic syndrome or diabetes: evaluating the risks of pharmacokinetic drug interactions. ( Davidson, MH, 2006)
"Dyslipidaemia in patients with type 2 diabetes commonly consists of elevated triglyceride levels; normal or slightly elevated low-density lipoprotein (LDL)-cholesterol levels with a preponderance of small, dense LDL particles; and low high-density lipoprotein (HDL)-cholesterol levels with a preponderance of small, dense HDL."2.42LDL-cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol or triglycerides--which is the culprit? ( Taskinen, MR, 2003)
"The metabolic syndrome is characterized by atherogenic dyslipidemia (elevated triglycerides, increased small dense low-density lipoproteins, and decreased high-density lipoproteins), hypertension, insulin resistance and obesity."2.41Treatment of dyslipoproteinemia in the metabolic syndrome. ( Fenselau, S; Schrezenmeir, J; Steinmetz, A, 2001)
"Fibric acid derivatives may interact with other drugs and the interactions can be of clinical relevance."2.39Drug interactions with fibric acids. ( Dujovne, CA; Lozada, A, 1994)
"Likewise, the metabolic syndrome is a secondary target of treatment."1.32CHD risk equivalents and the metabolic syndrome. Trial evidence supports aggressive management. ( Thompson, PD, 2003)
"Bezafibrate is a potent lipid-lowering agent of the new generation."1.26Clinical experience with bezafibrate. ( Hausmann, L; Kaffarnik, H; Mühlfellner, G; Mühlfellner, O; Schneider, J; Schubotz, R, 1980)
