*At baseline differences not statistically significant at the 5% level.
†Calculated between NCC and usual care (between-groups).
‡ALLP: the ALLP as an indicator of lipid-lowering medication intensity using the method by Besseling et al 12 (ref).
Total ALLP is the sum of the prescribed lipid-lowering potencies (%) per group.
NA, not applicable; OT, on target.
