Abstract
In patients with previous myocardial infarction (MI) guidelines recommend a low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) < 70mg/dL (ACC/AHA) or < 55mg/dL (European Society of Cardiology). Current data on individual variation of LDL-C in this population is limited. We aimed to assess the percentage of patients who achieved an LDL-C below target, the variation from 2013 to 2018 and to evaluate clinical predictors of good LDL-C control.
