Abstract

Increased understanding of the mechanisms of cholesterol-lowering therapy and other lipid risk factors has suggested new potential strategies for preventing and treating coronary heart disease (CHD). Although these new strategies hold promise, our first, best strategy for reducing the toll of CHD is to use current guidelines for treating dyslipidemia and other risk factors.
