What this trial studies

Adults aged 30–80 who are registered in the Hanam City Hypertension and Diabetes Program will be assigned to receive either a centralized intensive dyslipidemia management and education program or usual/standard care. The intensive arm uses structured education, lifestyle counseling, and coordinated management to reinforce medication adherence and lifestyle changes. Primary outcomes focus on changes in blood lipid profiles, while secondary outcomes include quality of life, health behaviors, and treatment adherence. Results will inform whether a standardized intensive program is practical and effective in a primary-care affiliated education center.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates are adults aged 30–80 who are registered with the Hanam City Hypertension and Diabetes Program, have hypertension and diabetes, and can give written informed consent.

Not a fit: Patients with advanced kidney disease (eGFR <30), severe liver disease or cirrhosis, recent acute coronary syndrome within 6 months, pregnant or breastfeeding women, or those with psychiatric disorders interfering with participation are unlikely to benefit or are excluded.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this approach could help patients achieve better cholesterol control, improve adherence and lifestyle habits, and lower long-term cardiovascular risk.

How similar studies have performed: Previous research has shown that intensive lipid management and education can improve lipid profiles and reduce cardiovascular events, though standardized programs in primary-care settings are less well validated.
