Sex-Based Utilization of Guideline Recommended Statin Therapy and Cardiovascular Disease Outcomes: A Primary Prevention Healthcare Network Registry.

In a large contemporary healthcare system, there was underutilization of statins across both sexes in primary prevention.

Future strategies to ensure continued use of GDSI, specifically among women, should be explored.
