Lipid profile among PCSK9i-treated patients

Total cholesterol (mmol/L)LDL-C (mmol/L)TG (mmol/L)HDL-C (mmol/L)

  • N=40. Data are mean (SD, range).

  • *One patient was on fenofibrate, discontinuation of fenofibrate led to significant elevation of TG at 3 months and, therefore, fenofibrate was reinstated before the 12 months reading. This result was excluded from the graph.

  • HDL, high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol; LDL, low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol; PCSK9i, proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 inhibitor; TG, triglycerides.
