First seen Apr 04, 2026 · Last updated May 25, 2026 · Updated 6 times
Summary
This study tests whether using large health databases can help more people take cholesterol-lowering statins to prevent heart attacks and strokes. Researchers are working with 500,000 people in high-risk Ontario communities to see if educational tools for patients and doctors improve statin use. The goal is to find a cheaper, real-world way to run heart disease trials.
