Prospective randomized comparative study of the effect of pemafibrate add‐on or double statin dose on small dense low‐density lipoprotein‐cholesterol in patients with type 2 diabetes and hypertriglyceridemia on statin therapy

Abstract Aims/Introduction Small dense low‐density lipoprotein (sdLDL) is a more potent atherogenic lipoprotein than LDL. As sdLDL‐cholesterol (C) levels are determined by triglyceride and LDL‐C levels, pemafibrate and statins can reduce sdLDL‐C levels. However, it remains unclear whether adding pem...
