Lipid testing patterns and LDL-C target attainment rates (&lt;70mg/dL) based on procedure codes or available lab results were examined. GDT was defined as high-intensity statin initiation in patients with ASCVD, moderate- or high-intensity statin initiation in patients with T2DM without ASCVD, PCSK9i in patients with ASCVD added to high-intensity statin and sustained high-intensity statin while persistent on PCSK9i during the 12 months follow-up period.

Current guidelines (2018, Grundy et al.) suggest considering a moderate-intensity statin for primary prevention if the 10-year ASCVD risk exceeds 5% in the presence of risk enhancers like IMID (Class IIb recommendation). However, many patients with IMID are undertreated with lipid-lowering therapies (LLT) as traditional ASCVD risk calculators often overlook this enhanced ASCVD risk. The 2022 ACC Expert Consensus decision pathway recommends a target LDL-C of at least 100 mg/dL and preferably less than 70 mg/dL for higher-risk patients for primary prevention. An LDL-C of less than 55 mg/dL is optimal for secondary ASCVD prevention.</p></div><div><h3>Objective/Purpose</h3><p>Identify the proportion of patients with IMID at our institution who meet criteria to start LLT (defined as ASCVD risk greater than 5% in the presence of risk enhancers or history of clinical ASCVD), proportion of such patients who are prescribed LLT, and the proportion of patients who meet goal LDL-C for primary and secondary prevention of ASCVD.

However, there is no clear consensus involving the appropriate testing criteria for Lp(a), specifically related to the role of a detailed family history of premature ASCVD for guidance.</p></div><div><h3>Objective/Purpose</h3><p>To assess the independent association between a detailed family history of premature ASCVD and Lp(a).</p></div><div><h3>Methods</h3><p>We studied 4,244 participants from the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis who had measures of Lp(a) (Visit 1) and completed detailed family history questionnaires (Visit 2). Family history of premature ASCVD (&lt;55 years old in men, &lt;65 years old in women) was defined as any myocardial infarction or stroke in a first-degree relative (mother, father, sibling). A combined family history of premature ASCVD score (0, 1, &gt;2 first-degree relatives) was constructed. Modified Poisson regression modeling calculated prevalence ratios (PR) for Lp(a) &gt;50 mg/dL according to family history of premature ASCVD after adjusting for age, sex, race/ethnicity, health insurance status, estimated glomerular filtration rate, and lipid-lowering medications.</p></div><div><h3>Results</h3><p>The mean age of participants was 61.7 years old, 52% were women, 28% were Black, and the median Lp(a) was 18 mg/dL (Q1: 8, Q3: 40). One in five individuals (21%) reported a family history of premature ASCVD, but the proportion of individuals who reported two or more first-degree relatives affected by premature ASCVD was two-fold higher among those with Lp(a) &gt;50 versus &lt;50 (4% versus 2%, p=0.003). There was a stepwise increment of Lp(a) and greater prevalence of Lp(a) &gt;50 as the number of reported family members with premature ASCVD increased (Figure). In multivariable analyses considering individuals without a family history of premature ASCVD as reference, there was no significantly higher prevalence of Lp(a) &gt;50 for individuals reporting one family member with premature ASCVD (PR=1.05, 95% CI: 0.90-1.22), though persons who had two or more family members affected by premature ASCVD had a 38% higher prevalence of Lp(a) &gt;50 (PR=1.38, 95% CI: 1.03-1.84).</p></div><div><h3>Conclusions</h3><p>Consideration of an ordinal family history of premature ASCVD score may help to better identify those most likely to have elevated Lp(a) compared to current binary family history questionnaires. Detailed documentation involving family history of premature ASCVD may facilitate targeted use of Lp(a)-specific risk assessment in clinical practice.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":15392,"journal":{"name":"Journal of clinical lipidology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.6,"publicationDate":"2024-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141842965","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
