Reducing the risk of #atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease in people with hemophilia: the importance of primary prevention jthjournal.org/article/S1538-…

Nice new paper from the UK Biobank shows a low-carbohydrate high-fat (LCHF) diet is associated with higher levels of LDL cholesterol and Apo B, nearly double the prevalence of severe hypercholesterolemia and a 2.2-fold increase in risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease

👌PCSK9 affects the atherosclerotic process NOT ONLY VIA LIPID METABOLISM but also through its effects on the COAGULATION fibrinolytic system, INFLAMMATION, platelets and endothelial cells and function'

It takes time to reduce mortality by decreasing LDLc levels in people where atherosclerotic plaques took several years to buildup!

Long-Term Study Shows Surprising Heart Disease Risk Patterns

This study included 39,098 individuals who were followed for an average time of 11.8 years.

During this period, there were 4,466 events related to atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD).

📍 Half of CKD cases are attributable to diabetes

📍10% of patients with CKD survive to reach kidney failure

📍90% people with diabetic kidney disease die, mainly because of heart failure or atherosclerotic and CV events

We’re at #ISPOR2024 presenting data from a Global Heart Hub survey on patient insights of living with high #cholesterol . Our Executive Director, Neil Johnson, shares more on these data and what they mean for people living with Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease ( #ASCVD ).

Targeting residual inflammatory risk across the full spectrum of atherosclerotic disease is the next frontier for atherosclerosis treatment and prevention.

In patients with residual inflammatory risk, based on guidelines, low-dose colchicine can be added to statin therapy as
