Variability in Plasma Lipids Between Intensive Statin Therapy and Conventional-Dose Statins Combined with Ezetimibe Therapy in Patients with Coronary Atherosclerosis Disease.

Dyslipidemia has been widely recognized as a significant risk factor for coronary atherosclerosis disease (CAD). In fact, lipid variability has emerged as a more reliable predictor of cardiovascular events. In this study, we aimed to examine the variability in plasma lipids under two different lipid-lowering regimens (intensive statin therapy versus the combination of conventional-dose statins with ezetimibe).
