Bempedoic Acid in Statin-Intolerant Patients
Bempedoic acid is an effective option for some statin-intolerant patients with an elevated predicted risk of cardiovascular events. However, as JAMA Executive Editor Gregory Curfman, MD, discusses with editorialist Dhruv S. Kazi, MD, MSc, MS, bempedoic acid should not be considered a substitute for statins, which remain the first-line therapy for primary prevention.

Talk Evidence - post pandemic pruning, breast cancer screening, and orphan drugs
In this episode of Talk Evidence, Helen Macdonald, Joe Ross, and Juan Franco are back to update us on what's happening in the world of medical evidence.
Firstly, the news about the end of the covid-19 pandemic was trumpeted, but the changes to research funding have been more quite - and the team discuss what this means for ongoing work to understand the effects of covid, but also in terms of preparedness for the next pandemic.
Next, breast cancer screening recommendations, in the USA, have been reduced from women over the age of 50, to those over the age of 40. We discuss the modelling study which lead to that recommenda...

The Costs of Quality Reporting
US hospitals report data on numerous quality metrics to government and independent rating organizations, but the cost of doing so is not well known. JAMA Associate Editor Karen E. Joynt Maddox, MD, discusses a new study that examines just how many quality metrics hospitals have to report, and attempts to quantify how much data collection and reporting costs in hours and dollars, with corresponding author Stephen A.
