    Lipid measurements in the management of cardiovascular diseases

    In this video, Prof. Stephen Nicholls provides a comprehensive overview of our infographic on lipid measurements and their clinical implications, serving as a helpful resource for healthcare professionals involved in managing cardiovascular disease. Covering atherogenic dyslipidemia, lipid profile components, advanced tests, and genetic considerations, Prof. Nicholls emphasizes individualized approaches to interpreting lipid parameters based on patient demographics and risk levels. This aims to guide clinicians in optimizing lipid-lowering therapy for cardiovascular risk prevention.

    “Lower, Longer, Sooner, Earlier, and Younger”: Do we have enough evidence?

    Prof. Chiang discusses Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease (ASCVD) in context of cumulated LDL exposure, and the different stages of secondary prevention and how starting to manage the disease at a younger age or earlier stage is beneficial. At 41:12 he answers audience questions.
