  19. Cases

  20. Mr A.M. Mr A.M. Is a 34 year old man of aboriginal descent who lives in rural NSW. His BP is 135 / 85. He was started on Rosuvastatin 20 mg because he has a very strong family history of premature cardiovascular disease (father, paternal aunt, 2 maternal uncles and older brother suffered onset of cardiovascular disease before age 45). Waistline is prominent and measures 98cms, but he is thin elsewhere. He had recurrent otitis media as a child and his dentition is poor. Follow-up lipids include TC=4.1, TG=2.9, HDL=0.5, LDL=2.3

  21. Questions about Mr A.M. Is Mr A.M. eligible for Rosuvastatin according to Pharmaceutical Benefits Schedule Guidelines? Yes / No Mr A.M’s very low HDL-C is mainly due to A) Racial factors B) Intercurrent infection C) Central Obesity / Lifestyle D) Mendelian genetic factors E) Lack of exercise Which other racial groups have been documented to have relatively low HDL levels (2 correct). A) Kiwis B) Indians C) Finns D) Turkish E) Sub-Saharan Africans In rural NSW, the most feasible treatment to improve this man’s HDL-C is A) Fish oil B) An exercise programme C) Niacin D) Fibrate E) Antibiotic

  23. Is Mr A.M. eligible for Rosuvastatin according to Pharmaceutical Benefits Schedule Guidelines? Yes / No

  24. Is Mr A.M. eligible for Rosuvastatin according to Pharmaceutical Benefits Schedule Guidelines?Was “yes”, now “no”

  25. Close the Gap scheme In Nov 2008 COAG agreed to $1.6 billion for CTG Benefit: Lower or nil payment for PBS medicines Eligible: Aboriginal/ Torres Strait Islander of any age who present with chronic disease or at risk of chronic disease AND would have significant setback from disease if they did not have Rx or unlikely to comply with out such assistance Register: at GP in the Indigenous Health Incentive under PIP or Indigenous Health services. Prescriber: Any in a practice participating in IHI under PIP or any in HIS or any specialist in any location if the patient is registered and the patient has been referred a doctor in IHI program.

  26. Mr A.M’s very low HDL-C is mainly due to A) Racial factors B) Intercurrent infection C) Central Obesity / Lifestyle D) Mendelian genetic factors E) Lack of exercise

  27. Mr A.M’s very low HDL-C is mainly due to..Reasons for a preference for “A”, “B” or “C”

  28. Which other racial groups have been documented to have relatively low HDL levels ? A) Kiwis B) Indians C) Finns D) Turkish E) Sub-Saharan Africans

  29. Which other racial groups have been documented to have relatively low HDL levels “B” supported by INTERHEART, but difficult to compare, eg “D”. ActaCardiol. 2007 Oct;62:453-9. Do Turkish adults really have lower serum levels of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol? Duran S, Memisogullari R, Coskun A, Yavuz O, Yuksel H. CONCLUSIONS: Our finding that the HDL-C level in this population was higher than the previously reported levels in Turkey indicates that HDL-C levels may not be as low as previously thought. We believe that lower HDL-C levels that were previously reported might be due to the difference between techniques of analysis, nutritional status, and percent of subjects who were fasting in the day of analysis or improper subject inclusion which did not reflect the Turkish population causing selection bias.

  30. In rural NSW, the most feasible treatment to improve this man’s HDL-C is... A) Fish oil B) An exercise programme C) Niacin D) Fibrate E) Antibiotic

  32. More questions about Mr A.M. Mr A.M. has mild albuminuria. Would you add an antihypertensive, and if so, which of the following: A) Nil B) Diuretic C) CCB D) ACEI E) Moxonidine His lipids remain unaltered but his eGFR declines slightly to 55mls / min. Would you add A) Fenofibrate 48mg B) Fenofibrate 145 mg , but cease if creatinine increased by 25 umol/l C) Fenofibrate 145mg, but continue if creatinine increased by < 25umol/l) D) Fenofibrate 145 mg no matter what E) More rosuvastatin CVD risk can’t be calculated because low HDL makes TC:HDL too high for risk calculators. To further assess risk in this rural setting, would you A) Test ABI and hs-CRP locally B) Refer for regional exercise stress test C) Refer to a more distant regional centre for imaging (IMT) D) Refer to capital city for CT angio or coronary calcium score E) Not perform any of these investigations

  39. Mr S.K. This 37 year old man of Greek descent had routine tests in his 20’s that revealed a very low HDL-C (<0.2 mmol/l). He is a smoker who drinks 20 gms alcohol per week. He trains regularly as a body-builder. A cardiologist was sufficiently concerned to arrange angiography at age 33, which was normal. On examination there are no relevant physical findings and lipids are TC=2.2, TG=2.2, HDL-C =0.08, LDL-C=1.0mmol/l.

(More than 1 possible) A) Diuretics B) Danazol C) Beta blockers C) Probocol E) Highly Active Antiretrovirals Your treatment would include A) Quit smoking advice only B) Niacin C) Statin D) Fibrate E) More alcohol
