👉OVER A CENTURY OF SCIENCE. ONE CONSISTENT MESSAGE.

☝️In medicine, few hypotheses have been tested as rigorously as the relationship between LDL cholesterol and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease.

🐇 1913 – Nikolai Anitschkow demonstrated that cholesterol-rich diets induce atherosclerosis in experimental models.

❤️ 1948 – The Framingham Heart Study established the association between cholesterol levels and cardiovascular risk.

🏆 1964 Nobel Prize – Konrad Bloch and Feodor Lynen elucidated the biosynthesis and metabolism of cholesterol.

🏆 1985 Nobel Prize – Michael Brown and Joseph Goldstein discovered the LDL receptor, transforming our understanding of cholesterol regulation and familial hypercholesterolemia.

💊 1994 (4S Trial) – Lowering LDL-C with statins reduced cardiovascular events and mortality.

💊+ 💊2015 (IMPROVE-IT) – Further LDL-C reduction with ezetimibe translated into additional cardiovascular benefit.

💉2017–2018 (FOURIER & ODYSSEY Outcomes) – PCSK9 inhibitors demonstrated that achieving very low LDL-C levels produces further risk reduction.

🧬👫🏻🔬🩻Today – Genetics, epidemiology, pathology, imaging, Mendelian randomization studies, and randomized clinical trials continue to converge on the same conclusion.

More than a century of basic science and clinical research has consistently pointed in one direction:

👉LDL cholesterol is causal.

☝️Lower is better.

☝️Earlier is better.

☝️Longer is better.

When a scientific concept is supported by experimental biology, human genetics, epidemiology, randomized clinical trials, and two Nobel Prizes in Medicine, it is no longer merely a hypothesis.

🙌 It is biology.

New in @AJPCardio:
Under the 2026 ACC/AHA dyslipidemia guideline, over 60% of U.S. adults aged 30-79 without ASCVD now have a statin indication, up from 43% under the 2018 guideline.
That’s 31.3 million newly eligible Americans.
But only 1 in 4 eligible adults are currently on therapy.

5⭐ Duke commit Deron Rippey Jr. built his game on Brooklyn concrete and a family blueprint that left no room for shortcuts.

a study on rybelsus (oral semagltuide aka oral ozempic) showed that sema exposure was reduced by 40% when administered with 240ml of water vs 50ml, suggesting that drinking more than 120ml of water with the tablet would negatively impact absorption.

therefore, not only do patients need to totally restrict food before and after taking the tablet, but they must consciously prevent overdrinking water when taking the tablet.

this will inevitably lead to claims of "the tablet is not working for me" and you'll see churn due to lack of perceived weight loss efficacy.

every endocrinologist that has prescribed this drug in their T2DM clinic has reported the same thing.

[American Heart Association @American_Heart]

The American Heart Association mourns the passing of the legendary cardiologist Eugene Braunwald, M.D., widely recognized as one of the most influential figures in the history of cardiovascular medicine. Over seven decades, his work reshaped the understanding and treatment of heart disease, leading many to call him the father of modern cardiology.

Braunwald was a lifelong contributor to the American Heart Association, helping advance its research and scientific mission, and was honored with some of the Association’s highest honors for his lasting influence on cardiovascular care and research. His influence extended well beyond his own discoveries, as generations of Association‑supported investigators, clinicians and academic leaders were trained by Braunwald or guided by the clinical trial standards and mentorship models he helped establish.

Duke fans are going to feel it from the jump.

With Deron Rippey Jr., it’s the pace, the burst, the confidence. The kind of guard who changes the energy the second he touches the ball.

Goosebumps every time he has it…you ready for that?
