Low cholesterol targets cut cardiovascular events by 33%
New findings from the EZ-PaVE trial indicate that targeting lower LDL cholesterol levels reduces cardiovascular events by a third. The result suggests patients at risk of heart disease may benefit from more aggressive cholesterol-lowering goals than current guidelines typically recommend, prompting discussion among clinicians about how quickly treatment targets should be revised.
Why now: The trial's finding that stricter LDL targets sharply reduce cardiovascular risk challenges current treatment guidelines.
