研究概览
简要总结
The purpose of this study is to determine whether reducing inflammation in blood vessels with an aspirin-like drug called salsalate will improve blood vessel function.
详细描述
To test the hypothesis that inhibition of I [kappa] B kinase [beta] (IĸKβ), an inflammatory mediator, by high dose salsalate, will restore insulin-mediated endothelium-dependent vasodilation in subjects with atherosclerosis.

研究组 & 干预措施
Salsalate first, then Placebo
In this crossover study, this group was randomly allocated therapy with salsalate first, a 4 week washout, then 4 weeks of placebo therapy in a double-blinded fashion.
干预措施: salsalate (Drug)

结局指标
主要结局
Flow-mediated, Endothelium-dependent Vasodilation
时间窗: Upon completion of 4 weeks of salsalate and placebo treatment
Flow-mediated, endothelium-dependent vasodilation (percentage increase in brachial artery diameter after a 5 minute ischemic stimulus) measured at the end of placebo treatment and end of salsalate treatment were compared.
