The EMJ Podcast | Bonus Episode
This EMJ podcast explores the vital topic of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) management in relation to the treatment and prevention of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. Our host, George Cooper, is joined by Michal Vrablík, First Faculty of Medicine, Charles University, Prague, Czech Republic.
Vrablík provides a basic overview of LDL-C, how it might lead to atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, and how this can ultimately cause a myocardial infarction. Vrablík covers current treatments for patients with high LDL-C, including statins, ezetimibe, and monoclonal antibodies that inhibit proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin Type 9.
