  • Title: Proposal for clinical trials using anti-inflammatory drugs in the therapy of angina pectoris, myocardial infarction and coronary restenosis after angioplasty and bypass grafting.
    Author: Chaldakov GN.
    Journal: Med Hypotheses; 1992 Feb; 37(2):74-5. PubMed ID: 1350049.
    Abstract:
    The importance of inflammatory phenomena in atherosclerosis is now appreciated. Here, a clinical trial to be conducted using anti-inflammatory drugs (sulfasalazine, griseofulvin and colchicine) in angina pectoris, myocardial infarction and coronary restenosis after angioplasty and bypass grafting is proposed. Patients who have both atherosclerosis and a disease responsive to anti-inflammatory drugs (ulcerative colitis or Crohn's disease, dermatomycosis, necrotizing vasculitis, Behcet's disease, gout or other colchicine-sensitive diseases), are desirable targets of the present proposal.
