    Abstract
    Patients receiving statin therapy to reduce total and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels still have a residual risk of cardiovascular (CV) events. In most statin trials, CV events are reduced by about 30% compared with placebo, leaving about 70% residual risk of CV events that occur in spite of statin therapy.Patients receiving statin therapy to reduce total and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels still have a residual risk of cardiovascular (CV) events.
