Dear Super Beens,

Statins’ eligibility, benefits, risks, etc. are an important topic for us all. American heart association had published an updated calculator for heart attack, stroke, and heart failure criteria in November of 2023. A new study has demonstrated that the statin eligibility will reduce almost by 40% with this new criteria. The questions are, how solid is this new study, how solid was the previous evidence and previous studies, and what is the role of calcium scoring?

We will discuss these topics today in our zoom talks at 1:00 pm PST and 6:00 pm PST. This one is important to join if you can.

Links for the two zoom sessions today.
