Effects of Statin versus the Combination of Ezetimibe plus Statin on Serum Lipid Absorption Markers in Patients with Acute Coronary Syndrome

Figure 3

The achievement rate of LDL-C less than 100 mg/dL is the recommended target of the Japan Atherosclerosis Society guidelines, and the achievement rate of LDL-C less than 70 mg/dL is the recommended target of Adult Treatment Panel III (ATPIII) and European Atherosclerosis Society (EAS) guidelines. In each analysis, the achievement rate is significantly higher in the pitavastatin + ezetimibe group than in the pitavastatin group.
