欧洲心脏病学杂志Atherosclerosis 对 2009 年以来的南华大学唐朝克7篇被广泛引用的论文表示关注：Atherosclerosis  的编辑们发表了一份担忧声明，提醒读者对上述文章中某些数据的质量提出了可信的担忧。迄今为止，唐朝克至少 15 篇论文在 PubPeer 上被质疑图片不规则使用。

南华大学唐朝克7篇被广泛引用的Atherosclerosis论文被表示关注：

• MicroRNA-27a/b regulates cellular cholesterol efflux, influx and esterification/hydrolysis in THP-1 macrophages (cited 120 times)
• Apelin-13 increases expression of ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 via activating protein kinase C α signaling in THP-1 macrophage-derived foam cells (cited 45 times)
• MicroRNA-19b promotes macrophage cholesterol accumulation and aortic atherosclerosis by targeting ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (cited 89 times)
• MicroRNA-186 promotes macrophage lipid accumulation and secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines by targeting cystathionine γ-lyase in THP-1 macrophages (cited 23 times)
• Diosgenin inhibits atherosclerosis via suppressing the MiR-19b-induced downregulation of ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (cited 52 times) and
• Eicosapentaenoic acid reduces ABCA1 serine phosphorylation and impairs ABCA1-dependent cholesterol efflux through cyclic AMP/protein kinase A signaling pathway in THP-1 macrophage-derived foam cells. 
• Apolipoprotein A-1 binding protein promotes macrophage cholesterol efflux by facilitating apolipoprotein A-1 binding to ABCA1 and preventing ABCA1 degradation
