Lipid ‐lowering therapy with PCSK9‐inhibitors in the real‐world setting: Two‐year experience of a regional lipid clinic
ConclusionsPatient selection by a regional lipid clinic resulted in a high real ‐world PCSK9i insurance approval, with efficacy and safety comparable to randomized clinical trials. Cost and medication nonadherence are potential barriers to successful implementation of therapy in routine clinical care. (Source: Cardiovascular Therapeutics)

Evidence ‐based pharmacotherapies used in the postdischarge phase are associated with improved one‐year survival in senior patients hospitalized with heart failure
ConclusionsIn a cohort of senior patients hospitalized with HF, dispensing of a RASI or β‐blocker within 60 days postdischarge is associated with a 1‐year survival benefit. Early postdischarge support programs after recent HF hospitalization should include measures to optimize adherence to evidence‐based medications. (Source: Cardiovascular Therapeutics)

Effect of evidence ‐based cardiac drug therapy on mortality in patients with acute coronary syndrome: Findings from the Gulf COAST registry
ConclusionsAmong patients discharged after an ACS event, concurrent EBM prescribing was associated with lower all ‐cause mortality that persists for up to 12‐months posthospital discharge. The relative benefits of EBMs were also consistent across age, GRACE risk score, and discharge diagnosis. (Source: Cardiovascular Therapeutics)
