Lp(a) doesn't just add risk-it reframes it (often a lifelong, family conversation). The question isn't "should we test?" but how we implement testing so results are clear and actionable @lipidjournal.bsky.social 🔗 lipidjournal.com/article/S193... @afgciceromd.bsky.social @eassociety.bsky.social

Many patients use supplements, and recent studies have addressed their impact on LDL-C. Current evidence shows no relevant effect of diet composition on LDL cholesterol. The class III recommendation is an important novel part of the 2025 Updated Guidelines. Read more here: eas.to/guidelines-2...

It’s unclear if lowering Lp(a) reduces ASCVD or AVS risk, so managing other risk factors and lowering LDL-C remains key. Despite earlier concerns, statins don’t raise Lp(a), and high-risk patients should still use high-intensity statins: eas.to/guidelines-2...

What is new regarding LDL-C lowering therapies?: eas.to/guidelines-2.... The Task Force advises adding non-statin drugs like ezetimibe, PCSK9 inhibitors, or bempedoic acid if statins alone don’t reach LDL-C goals. Choice depends on needed LDL-C reduction, patient preference, availability, and cost.
