Cardiovascular Risk Categories and Attaining LDL-C Targets in Middle Eastern Adults Aged 30-55 Years of Age (CREATE)

January 29, 2024 updated by: Jordan Collaborating Cardiology Group
Individuals evaluated for primary and secondary cardiovascular prevention have different levels of cardiovascular risk These levels of risk are the main determinants of the low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) target blood levels that need to be attained.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Individuals evaluated for primary and secondary cardiovascular prevention fall into different levels of cardiovascular risk according to their clinical profile of having atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD), risk factors, and their SCORE. These levels of risk are the main determinants of the low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) target blood levels that need to be attained using LDL-C-lowering agents (LLA).

Contemporary studies that evaluated levels of cardiovascular risk and LDL-C goal attainment in the Middle East are scarce. A prior study (CEPHEUS LEVANT) in the Middle East demonstrated that about 1 in 4 high-risk patients reach LDL-C goals.

The current study aims at studying cardiovascular risk categories according to the 2019 ESC/EAS and 2018 ACC/AHA Guidelines, and the attainment of LDL-C treatment goals in consecutive individuals aged 18-55 years who are evaluated in tertiary care centers as inpatients or in ambulatory care settings. The above age bracket was chosen because these are the individuals most prone to acute cardiovascular events with a high prevalence of diabetes mellitus and cigarette smoking.
