JT, this is a joke. There are 38M people on statins in US, half of whom have also high trigs, and most of them have also other CVD risk factors or have CVD disease. We are talking about at least 10-15 millions immediately eligible patients only for the US.

This may be true, but the authors STRICTLY applied the REDUCE-IT criteria to the US population to come up with that number. So it's really a minimum threshold.
