Coronary risk estimates and decisions on lipid-lowering treatment in primary prevention: Comparison between general practitioners, internists, and cardiologists
European Journal of Internal Medicine , 09/29/09

This may result in over– or under–prescription of lipid–lowering drugs and inconsistencies in the care provided by different categories of doctors.
