According to previously published analyses in a non-Chinese population, the MARINE study demonstrated that 4 g/day IPE reduced within-group TG concentrations by 26.6% in patients with extremely high TG levels (5.6—22.6 mmol/L) without significant increases in LDL-C levels compared to placebo. Our results were consistent with the findings of MARINE study [Regarding the clinical advantages on cardio-cerebrovascular disease, it was determined that a daily dosage of 4 g of IPE reduced the risk of nonfatal myocardial infarction, cardiovascular mortality, coronary angioplasty, nonfatal stroke, or unstable angina by 25% [
