Abstract
Lipid management guidelines promulgated around the world continue to emphasize the need to reduce serum levels of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) in order to reduce risk for acute cardiovascular events in both the primary and secondary prevention settings [1–3]. There is growing consensus that when it comes to LDL-C management, lower is better with no apparent lower limit that is discernible from current evidence, i.e., there is greater and greater benefit as LDL-C decreases with no apparent loss in safety [4–8]. Dyslipidemia and coronary artery disease (CAD) are widely prevalent throughout the world. Considerable effort continues to be focused on expanding the appropriate use of lipid-lowering medication in order to more optimally reduce the burden of atherogenic lipoproteins in serum.
