[HTML][HTML] Effect of two intensive statin regimens on progression of coronary disease
Background Statins reduce adverse cardiovascular outcomes and slow the progression of
coronary atherosclerosis in proportion to their ability to reduce low-density lipoprotein (LDL)
cholesterol. However, few studies have either assessed the ability of intensive statin
treatments to achieve disease regression or compared alternative approaches to maximal
statin administration. Methods We performed serial intravascular ultrasonography in 1039
patients with coronary disease, at baseline and after 104 weeks of treatment with either …
