Low-density Lipoprotein Cholesterol Reduction With State-of-the-art Therapy in Secondary Prevention and Major Cardiovascular Adverse Events: Republic of Srpska Registry (RS-ACS)

October 17, 2021 updated by: Bojan Stanetic, University Clinical Centre of Republic of Srpska

Recent trials have demonstrated that a reduction in low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) reduces cardiovascular adverse events following acute coronary syndrome (ACS). However, the data coming from the real-world setting are limited. Therefore, the aim of the study is to assess the association between LDL-C changes with prognosis in patients who survive ACS.

Patients with ACS will be followed for mortality and major events for at least 1 year. Changes in LDL-C between the ACS and a 6- to 10-week follow-up visit will be analysed. The associations between quartiles of LDL-C change and therapy intensity with outcomes will be investigated using adjusted Cox regression analyses.
