• W1992363534 abstract "Editor—Wang et al, and Kumana and Cheung are concerned by the omission of data on drug dosage. We included an analysis of drug dosage in the original paper submitted to the BMJ and removed it at the request of the editorial board. Of the 1116 patients whose serum cholesterol value was above 5 mmol/l, 209 (18.7%) were receiving maximum doses compared with 96 (7.1%) of the 1353 patients who did achieve the target range. In addition, in those patients receiving the maximum dose only 32% (96) achieved the target cholesterol value.The table shows the number of patients taking each drug who reached target cholesterol values according to whether the maximum dose recommended in the British National Formulary had been prescribed. However, we have not looked at equivalent doses when these are submaximal for one drug, but maximal for another.Table 1Achievement of serum cholesterol value of ≤5 mmol/l and use of maximum dose of individual lipid agentsWe did not write the statement “Statins reduce lipid levels better than fibrates”—this appeared in This week in the BMJ rather than in our paper. The text was different from the version we submitted, and we had no opportunity to comment on it before publication.Kumana and Cheung raise the issue of differences between patients taking different statins. As we described in our paper, we took account of potential confounders by including the following variables in the multivariate analysis: sex, age, obesity, smoking status, pretreatment cholesterol values, comorbidity (ischaemic heart disease, diabetes, hypertension, and stroke), and registered general practices. We discussed the potential effect on the results in our discussion.We think that the “dispersion” mentioned by Wang et al refers to the 95% confidence intervals (which are not standard deviations), and naturally these are narrower for atorvastain and simvastatin because of the larger sample sizes in those groups." @default.
