HDL cholesterol and ASCVD risk stratification: A debate

Atherosclerosis, 2019
This debate is designed to review the usefulness of the cholesterol mass within high-density lipoproteins (HDL-C) to predict the risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). PRO: There is much current confusion regarding the role of high density lipoproteins (HDLs) in atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). While it is an established

Minding the Gaps: Projecting the Consequences of Altering ASCVD Risk Thresholds on Type 2 Diabetes and ASCVD

2019
While the cardioprotective effect of statins are undeniable, experimental and observational research has suggested the potential for increased type 2 diabetes (T2D) risk. However, few studies have directly compared statin-associated benefits and harms or examined heterogeneity by population subgroups or assumed treatment effect.
