Managing Global Cardiometabolic Risk: How Can We Disrupt the Pathological Process?

Archived CME Activity

 
Commensurate with the epidemic of obesity and diabetes in the US in recent years has been an increase in the prevalence of cardiovascular (CV) disease. Even with the considerable research and development of newapproaches to manage cardiometabolic risk, the residual risk remaining with treated CV disease is associated with a markedly high rate of major CV events. This results, in part, from the fact that many pharmacological options treat downstream consequences of the cardiovascular and metabolic disease process, subsequent to the point in the pathological cascade at which the classical CV risk factors develop.
