Abstract
Abstract: Colchicine is an anti-inflammatory drug for different inflammatory conditions and is approved for secondary prevention of cardiovascular events in patients with coronary artery disease, mainly based on the results of the LODOCO2 and COLCOT trials. The recently published CLEAR SYNERGY trial reported neutral results for colchicine in patients with acute myocardial infarction undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention, challenging the previous reported benefits of colchicine. While colchicine appeared rather safe across the different studies, the variation in efficacy may suggest that the one-size-fits-all for the treatment of acute and chronic forms of coronary artery disease may not be appropriate, and that low-dose colchicine may be beneficial as an add-on therapy in patients who are stable or recovering from acute event, and not so helpful in patients with acute myocardial infarction already receiving intensive pharmaco-invasive therapies.
期刊介绍：
Journal of Cardiovascular Pharmacology is a peer reviewed, multidisciplinary journal that publishes original articles and pertinent review articles on basic and clinical aspects of cardiovascular pharmacology. The Journal encourages submission in all aspects of cardiovascular pharmacology/medicine including, but not limited to: stroke, kidney disease, lipid disorders, diabetes, systemic and pulmonary hypertension, cancer angiogenesis, neural and hormonal control of the circulation, sepsis, neurodegenerative diseases with a vascular component, cardiac and vascular remodeling, heart failure, angina, anticoagulants/antiplatelet agents, drugs/agents that affect vascular smooth muscle, and arrhythmias.
Appropriate subjects include new drug development and evaluation, physiological and pharmacological bases of drug action, metabolism, drug interactions and side effects, application of drugs to gain novel insights into physiology or pathological conditions, clinical results with new and established agents, and novel methods. The focus is on pharmacology in its broadest applications, incorporating not only traditional approaches, but new approaches to the development of pharmacological agents and the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular diseases. Please note that JCVP does not publish work based on biological extracts of mixed and uncertain chemical composition or unknown concentration.
