Eliminating Medication Copayments for Low-income Older Adults at High Cardiovascular Risk: A Randomized Controlled Trial
Conclusions: In low-income adults at high cardiovascular risk, eliminating copayments (average $35 a month) did not improve clinical outcomes or reduce healthcare costs, despite a modest improvement in adherence to medications.PMID:36871215 | DOI:10.1161/CIRCULATIONAHA.123.064188

Self-management Support Using Advertising Principles for Older Low Income Adults at High Cardiovascular Risk: a Randomized Controlled Trial
Conclusions: In low-income older adults, a tailored SMES program using advertising principles reduced the rate of clinical outcomes compared with usual care, though the mechanisms of improvement are unclear and further studies are required.PMID:36871212 | DOI:10.1161/CIRCULATIONAHA.123.064189

Differences in statin utilization and lipid lowering by race, ethnicity, and HIV status in a real-world cohort of persons with human immunodeficiency virus and uninfected persons
ConclusionsAmong PWH with statin indication(s), blacks and Hispanics were less likely than whites to have been prescribed a statin. These racial/ethnic disparities were less pronounced among uninfected persons. There were significant differences in type of statin used for PWH compared to uninfected matched controls. Future efforts addressing disparities in CVD prevention among PWH are warranted.
