The document focuses mostly on individuals at the extremes of body weight, i.e. underweight and moderate-to-morbid obesity, who require antithrombotic drugs, according to current guidelines, for the treatment or prevention of cardiovascular diseases or venous thromboembolism. Managing antithrombotic therapy or thromboprophylaxis in these individuals is challenging, due to profound changes in body composition, metabolism and organ function, and altered drug pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics, as well as weak or no evidence from clinical trials. The document also includes artificial intelligence simulations derived from in silico pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic models, which can mimic the pharmacokinetic changes and help identify optimal regimens of antithrombotic drugs for severely underweight or severely obese individuals. Further, bariatric surgery in morbidly obese subjects is frequently performed worldwide. Bariatric surgery causes specific and additional changes in metabolism and gastrointestinal anatomy, depending on the type of the procedure, which can also impact the pharmacokinetics of antithrombotic drugs and their management.

We focused on individuals with CKD and excluded those on renal replacement therapy (haemodialysis, peritoneal dialysis, or kidney transplantation). The use of statins is safe and recommended in most patients, but guidelines vary with respect to low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol goals. While no dedicated primary or secondary prevention studies are available for pro-protein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 inhibitors, secondary analyses of large outcome trials reveal no effect modification on endpoints by the presence of CKD. Similar data have been shown for bempedoic acid, but no definite conclusion can be drawn with respect to efficacy and safety. No outcome trials are available for inclisiran while the cholesterol lowering effects seem to be unaffected by CKD. Finally, the value of fibrates and icosapent ethyl in CKD is unclear. Lipid abnormalities contribute to the massive cardiovascular disease burden in CKD. Lowering of LDL cholesterol with statins (and most likely PCSK9 inhibitors) reduces the event rate and thus statin therapy should be initiated in almost all individuals.
