From the evaluated ONTARGET, ALTITUDE, ACCOMPLISH, ROADMAP, and ACCORD-BP studies a conclusion can be drawn that though microalbuminuria/proteinuria is a strong epidemiological biomarker, in interventional studies it is not necessarily a reliable surrogate endpoint as actual renal function may change

Atherosclerotic renal-artery stenosis is a common problem in the elderly. Despite two randomized trials that did not show a benefit of renal-artery stenting with respect to kidney function, the usefulness of stenting for the prevention of major adverse renal and

Statins can regress coronary atheroma and lower clinical events. Although pre-clinical studies suggest procalcific effects of statins in vitro, it remains unclear if statins can modulate coronary atheroma calcification in vivo. This study compared changes in coronary atheroma volume and calcium indices
