Article Abstract
Background: This systematic review investigates the effect of small interfering RNA (siRNA) therapies on lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] levels. The purpose is to evaluate the outcomes of recent randomized controlled trials (RCTs) involving siRNA treatments aimed at lowering Lp(a) levels, a known cardiovascular risk factor.
Methods: A comprehensive search across multiple databases was conducted, identifying 20 published and ongoing RCTs that examined the effects of siRNA therapies such as inclisiran, olpasiran, and SLN360 on Lp(a) levels. The included studies were analyzed to assess Lp(a) reductions and other lipid-related outcomes.
Results: The RCTs demonstrated significant reductions in Lp(a) levels following siRNA therapy. Additional reductions were noted in LDL-c and apolipoprotein B levels. Side effects were typically mild, including injection site reactions.
Conclusions: siRNA therapies show promise in effectively lowering Lp(a) levels, with minimal adverse effects. However, further research is required to establish their long-term safety and efficacy.

Perceived Parental Involvement Decreases the Risk of Adolescent Depression.

Objective: To tailor culturally sensitive interventional strategies for safeguarding adolescents' mental health, this study investigated the role of perceived parental involvement in predicting depressive symptoms among Chinese adolescents, considering family socioeconomic status (SES).
Methods: A cluster convenience sampling method recruited 21,818 participants from 48 middle schools across 29 provinces in China. The perceived parental involvement (PPI) Scale and the Chinese version of the center for epidemiologic studies depression scale (CES-D) assessed parental involvement and depressive symptoms, respectively.

Objective: Coronary artery calcification (CAC) and osteoporosis are common age-related conditions that may share underlying mechanisms such as inflammation and lipid dysregulation. Lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] has been suggested as a potential contributor to both processes. This study aims to investigate the relationship between CAC, bone mineral density (BMD), and Lp(a) levels in a statin-naive elderly population.

Background: Impulsivity is a multidimensional construct that is associated with problematic alcohol use and alcohol use disorder (AUD). Modeling within-person clustering of impulsivity facets has the potential to aid clinical case conceptualization, and examining associations with resilience and well-being outcomes can inform strength-based intervention approaches. In this study, we utilized latent profile analysis (LPA) to capture the clustering of trait impulsivity facets and tested resilience as a mediational pathway linking impulsivity latent profiles to problematic alcohol use and quality of life domains.

Elevated lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] is well established as a common risk factor for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). Lp(a) levels are >90 % genetically determined. However, Lp(a) remains very underrecognized as a cardiovascular risk factor with low rates of testing.

Purpose: To identify and explore the latent categories of self-control and clarify the relationship between self-control and self-management of stroke survivors under different categories.
Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted using a general information questionnaire, the Chinese version of the Dual-Mode Self-Control Scale, and the Stroke Self-Management Scale to measure sociodemographic data, self-control, and self-management. The questionnaires were administered face-to-face, and a convenience sampling method was used to collect the data.
