Factors Associated with the Prescribing of High-Intensity Statins

In this study, we investigated the relationship between sociodemographic, clinical, anthropometric, and lifestyle characteristics and the type of statin prescribed for primary prevention of cardiovascular disease (CVD). We conducted an observational study in workers who began statin treatment. Stati...

description In this study, we investigated the relationship between sociodemographic, clinical, anthropometric, and lifestyle characteristics and the type of statin prescribed for primary prevention of cardiovascular disease (CVD). We conducted an observational study in workers who began statin treatment. Statin therapy was categorized as "high-intensity" or "low-moderate-intensity". Workers were classified according to the alignment of their statin therapy with the recommended management practices. Logistic regression models were used to evaluate the association between the different variables studied and the probability of being prescribed high-intensity statins. The only variables associated with a higher probability of being treated with high-intensity statins were increased physical activity (>40 versus

Logistic regression models were used to evaluate the association between the different variables studied and the probability of being prescribed high-intensity statins. The only variables associated with a higher probability of being treated with high-intensity statins were increased physical activity (&gt;40 versus &lt;20 METs (metabolic equivalent of task) h/wk; odds ratio (OR), 1.65; 95%CI, 1.08-2.50) and, in diabetics, higher low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels (≥155 mg/dL versus &lt;155 mg/dL; OR, 4.96; 95%CI, 1.29-19.10). The model that best predicted treatment intensity included LDL-C, diabetes, hypertension, smoking, and age (area under the Receiver Operating Characteristic curve (AUC), 0.620; 95%CI, 0.574-0.666). The prescribing and type of statin used in primary CVD prevention did not correspond with the indications in current guidelines. The probability of receiving high-intensity statins was higher in diabetics with high LDL-C levels and in more physically active individuals. These findings underscore the great variability and uncertainty in the prescribing of statins.</description><identifier>ISSN: 2077-0383</identifier><identifier>EISSN: 2077-0383</identifier><identifier>DOI: 10.3390/jcm9123850</identifier><identifier>PMID: 33260835</identifier><language>eng</language><publisher>Switzerland: MDPI AG</publisher><subject>Antihypertensives ; Atherosclerosis ; Blood pressure ; Cholesterol ; Classification ; Clinical medicine ; Codes ; Diabetes ; Diet ; Disease prevention ; Drug dosages ; Lifestyles ; Lipids ; Lipoproteins ; Prescription drugs ; Primary care ; Questionnaires ; Shift work ; Sleep ; Statins ; Workers</subject><ispartof>Journal of clinical medicine, 2020-11, Vol.9 (12), p.3850</ispartof><rights>2020 by the authors.
