More work to do! #cvprevention

[JACC Journals @JACCJournals]

LDL reduction lowers #ASCVD risk, yet population control remains poor & most high-risk adults miss guideline targets. Statins & other lipid-lowering therapies are underused, w/ persistent racial/sex disparities in Tx. https://t.co/7ulA03VEl1

@NWSMissoula 👎👎

@drjohnm John- longtime listener, first time commenting. If one’s BP is 160/90, you don’t treat it if no other comorbidities? Just wait and treat after the stroke?

[Matthew C. Weiss @MatthewWeissMD]

@liftblog @ChossUSA @Telluride You called it!

[Matthew C. Weiss @MatthewWeissMD]

@NWSMissoula Too bad it wasn’t snow!

[Matthew C. Weiss @MatthewWeissMD]

Well said. Always wonderful (and not surprising) to see this repeatedly reiterated. Still too many deniers out there! 🫀

[Sek Kathiresan MD @skathire]

Relationship between LDL-C lowering and reduction in ASCVD probably best understood relationship in all of medicine

This result falls right in line with cholesterol treatment trailists relationship.

[Matthew C. Weiss @MatthewWeissMD]

@pnatarajanmd @AHAScience 100% agree. It’s been an amazing tool and a wonderful part of our preventive arsenal!

@silver_skier @kapowder @ozskier @liftblog @Riddle_Lincoln @tech_rob @StormSkiJournal Patagonia makes this bag every few years. It’s super durable. I’ve taken it all over the world. I own a second one just in case

@rblument1 @TLeucker @MichaelJBlaha @CiccaroneCenter Progress.
The next version will reduce the >300 cut off. +CAC is secondary prevention. 🫀

@liftblog That standard Poma one looks quaint compared to the more modern ones from the smaller industry players, no?

[Matthew C. Weiss @MatthewWeissMD]

@liftblog Any good engineering anecdotes to share about these lifts? There must be expected yearly glacial retreat/ shift that’s pre designed into the lift. Like the original team at big sky, for example.

[Matthew C. Weiss @MatthewWeissMD]

@Lpa_Doc I make sure to include this slide in every lipid talk I give. Very powerful to demonstrate the parallel data across Mendelian randomization and RCTs!

[Matthew C. Weiss @MatthewWeissMD]

@Drlipid @NutritionMadeS3 Was a great analysis. Thanks for sharing.
The initial lay person/ media messaging of this draft paper is unfortunately harmful to the public perception of the pros/ cons of keto diets…

[Matthew C. Weiss @MatthewWeissMD]

@Lpa_Doc Thanks @Lpa_Doc for sharing. Just got the first patients in Montana on olezarsen. Look forward to watching.
