In this nationwide propensity-score matched cohort study involving individuals with diabetes and TG ≥ 150 mg/dL, the risk of all-cause death and ASCVD was significantly lower with fenofibrate use in conjunction with statin treatment compared to statin treatment alone. However, this finding was significant only in individuals with relatively high LDL-C levels.
