@NoureddinMD @juanpabloarab @AlkhouriNaim @DrLoomba @KathleenCoreyMD @DrMTLong @schattenbergJ As always with retrospective studies, you wonder whether it's the #statins that worsen #diabetes, or that pts with an indication for statins are the ones with higher risk of DM progression.

@brianedwardsmd @drlabos @nationallipid according to the AHA: cognitive deficits "been examined in several overviews of both RCTs and observational data, with no conclusive evidence for either cognitive benefit or harm from statin therapy." DOI: 10.1161/ATV.0000000000000073

@Maratosflier @DBelardoMD @DavidLBrownMD I support CAC for subset, not all. CAC could indicate person’s not low risk. Ex: in MESA, ~20% were PCE risk 5-7.5%.
