Lipid levels are inversely associated with infectious and all-cause mortality: international MONDO study results. [PDF]
Cardiovascular (CV) events are increased 36-fold in patients with end-stage renal disease. However, randomized controlled trials to lower LDL cholesterol (LDL-C) and serum total cholesterol (TC) have not shown significant mortality improvements.

Aspirin and the Primary Prevention of Cardiovascular Diseases. An Approach Based on Individualized, Integrated Estimation of Risk [PDF]
While the use of aspirin in the secondary prevention of cardiovascular (CVD) is well established, aspirin in primary prevention is not systematically recommended because the absolute CV event reduction is similar to the absolute excess in major bleedings.
