Disparities in achieving low-density lipoprotein cholesterol goals after revascularization in a diverse real-world cohort
Among patients with ASCVD who underwent revascularization, a large proportion did not have follow-up LDL-C testing, and in those who did, testing was delayed. Only half of patients achieved LDL-C levels below 70 mg/dL (1.8 mmol/L), with female and non-Hispanic Black patients less likely to attain this goal.
