[Status of cholesterol goal attainment for the primary and secondary prevention of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease in dyslipidemia patients receiving lipid-lowering therapy: DYSIS-China subgroup analysis].

To analyze the current status of cholesterol goal attainment for the primary and secondary prevention of cardiovascular disease in dyslipidemia patients using data from the DYSIS-China study.Based on criteria defined in the 2014 China Cholesterol Education Program (CCEP) and the 2007 Chinese guidelines for the prevention and treatment of dyslipidemia in adults, 25 317 dyslipidemia patients enrolled in the DYSIS-China study (from March 2012 to October 2012) were stratified to the atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease(ASCVD) primary prevention and secondary prevention groups. The total cholesterol (TC) target goals were <3.11, 4.14, 5.18, and 6.22 mmol/L, respectively, and the low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) therapeutic goals were less than 1.8, 2.6, 3.4, and 4.1 mmol/L, respectively, for the very high-risk, high-risk, moderate-risk, and low-risk patients in the primary prevention group. The TC targets for the very high-risk and high-risk patients were <3.11 and <4.14 mmol/L, respectively, and the LDL-C targets were <1.8 and <2.6 mmol/L, respectively, in the secondary prevention group. The TC and LDL-C goal attainment rates were calculated for the different risk groups according to the targets values.Totally, 71.09% (n=18 000) of the dyslipidemia patients were grouped into very high and high risk groups, 51.76% (n=13 104) and 48.24% (n=12 213) patients were stratified to primary and secondary prevention of ASCVD. The LDL-C and TC goal attainment rates for the secondary prevention group were 33.09%(4 041 cases) and 21.05% (2 571 cases), respectively. The LDL-C and TC goal attainment rates for the primary prevention group were 52.40% (6 866 cases) and 42.06% (5 511 cases), respectively. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that diabetes mellitus(OR=5.75, 4.15, P<0.05), coronary heart disease(OR=5.70, 3.58, P<0.001), and peripheral arterial disease(OR=2.42, 1.49, P<0.05) were risk factors for failure to achieve TC and LDL-C goals, respectively.Despite the widespread application of the 2014 CCEP and 2007 Chinese dyslipidemia guidelines, LDL-C goal attainment among secondary and primary prevention patients remains suboptimal in China. More rigorous guideline adherence is therefore required to increase the LDL-C and TC goal attainment rates and improve the long-term cardiovascular outcomes in Chinese dyslipidemia patients.
