Peter Libby: Inflammation and Traditional Risk Factors Work Together in Cardiovascular Disease
Peter Libby, Mallinckrodt Professor of Medicine and Cardiovascular Specialist at Harvard Medical School and Brigham and Women’s Hospital, reposted from International Atherosclerosis Society on LinkedIn:
”Informative new vignettes about Inflammation and Cardiovascular Disease. Inflammation and traditional risk factors work together!
The title echoes a paper I did a few years ago: Strandberg TE, Libby P, Kovanen PT. A tale of two therapies lipid-lowering vs. anti-inflammatory therapy: a false dichotomy? Cardiovasc Pharmacol 2021;7(3):238-241. ”
Qutoing International Atherosclerosis Society‘s post:
”It’s Inflammation Monday!
Every Monday, IAS will be highlighting the recordings of the live lectures from the Inflammation Academy, held in Madrid on August 28, 2025.
For the first lecture highlight, hear from Peter Libby, MD, as he speaks on how inflammatory mechanisms link traditional risk factors to adverse cardiovascular events.
Watch to learn more.”
