Smaller incremental benefits and ARR w/ newer therapies, even in the most ideal trial settings
seems like a recurring theme in current practice (a good thing!)
@shestads@nationallipid A9. Exactly. A recent meta-analysis demonstrated LDL-C lowering was effective in reducing cardiovascular events in patients aged 75 years and older. https://t.co/iaQF4xaNdt
