Core Tip	Statin use has been suggested to be associated with the risk of liver cancer by some studies, but no consensus was reached among them. This meta-analysis involved 4725593 people, 9785 liver cancer cases, and found that statin use was associated with the reduced risk of liver cancer (RR = 0.67, 95%CI: 0.55-0.82, P < 0.001).
