2 studies
  1. Lipid-lowering therapy is associated with LDL-C target achievement in humans (High and very high cardiovascular risk) (26.4% target achievement).

  2. Lipid-lowering therapy is associated with LDL-C target achievement in very high-risk patients (28.48% in VH vs 21.37% overall in VH).

    “Among LLT treated patients, 28.48% were on-target in VH category, 47.60% in H, 69.12% in M and 68.47% in L.”

  1. Statin intolerance is associated with LDL-C target achievement in humans (High and very high cardiovascular risk) (Monotherapy, 19.1%; combination therapy, 22.1%).

    “Among the high- and very-high-risk SI patients, LDL-C goal attainment rates were lower (MT, 19.1%; CT, 22.1%).”

ApoB discordance

mixedin humans1

1 study
  1. LDL-C target achievement is associated with ApoB discordance in humans (86 patients (23.8%) had ApoB >65 mg/dL despite target LDL-C).

    “However, among LDL achievers, 86 patients (23.8%) demonstrated ApoB >65 mg/dL despite target LDL-C.”

    LDL-C target achievement does not equal risk resolution after ACS: residual atherogenic and inflammatory burden despite maximal oral triple lipid therapy

1 study
  1. Observatory II is associated with LDL-C target achievement in humans (Observatory II compared with Observatory I, across cardiovascular risk categories) (Low risk: 55% versus 47%; moderate risk: 44% versus 36%; high risk: 33% versus 22%; very high risk: 39% versus 25%).

Cardiovascular risk categories

  1. Cardiovascular risk categories are associated with LDL-C target achievement in hospitalized patients (78.79% in L, 58.38% in M, 33.3% in H and 21.37% in VH).

    “The percentage of on-target patients was progressively lower towards the worst categories (78.79% in L, 58.38% in M, 33.3% in H and 21.37% in VH).”

1 study
  1. Age is associated with LDL-C target achievement in humans (ASCVD patients presenting with STEMI) (43% and 49% vs 29%, p = 0.033).

    “Significantly higher percentages of older/oldest ASCVD patients (43% and 49%) met LDL-C targets < 70 mg/dL compared to patients < 65 years (29%; p = 0.033)”
