| Core Tip |
In the study, a connection between different ways to take the medicine of statins and changes in coronary atherosclerotic plaques was detected. The sustained application statins reduced the volume of the most severe atherosclerotic plaques compared with intermittent and discontinued application; it can also be said that sustained application statins play an important role in treating atherosclerosis. In contrast, in the Discontinued and Intermittent Application Groups, coronary atherosclerotic plaques showed progression. The results suggest that statins are effective for the intervention of atherosclerotic plaques and should be applied consistently and continuously. Intermittent application not only increases the medication cost and patient burden but also may not be effective. |
