ORLANDO (March 10, 2018) – The ODYSSEY OUTCOMES trial results, announced today at the American College of Cardiology 67th Annual Scientific Sessions in Orlando, revealed the addition of alirocumab to maximally tolerated statin significantly reduced major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) compared to those on maximally tolerated statin and placebo. 

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- The National Lipid Association announced Monday it has united with MD Magazine®, a leading online and print source of physician news, conference coverage, and peer-to-peer discussion, through Michael J. Hennessy Associates' Strategic Alliance Partnership (SAP) Program. The partnership will also include sister publications, Rare Disease Report® and Pharmacy Times®.

The National Lipid Association announced on Wednesday its support of the Lipoprotein(a) Foundation’s efforts to promote a new ICD-10 Diagnostic-Code for high Lp(a).

The NLA believes the new code will be beneficial in identifying lethal risk factors in patients. To further support this initiative, NLA members are encouraged to email the ICD-10 Coordination and Maintenance Committee before November 13, 2017.
