Hellenic Postprandial Lipemia Study (HPLS): A Prospective Cohort Trial on the Effect of Statins on Postprandial Hypertriglyceridemia
Nearly 30% of individuals at high-/very high-risk for ASCVD had postprandial hypertriglyceridemia. Statin treatment normalized abnormal postprandial lipemia in 75.6% of participants, and decreased pTG concentration even in those with normal fTG levels.
