Efficiency of atorvastatin on in-hospital mortality of patients with acute aortic dissection (AAD): study protocol for a randomized, open-label, superiority clinical trial

Abstract Background Dyslipidemia and local inflammation at sites of lipid deposition on blood vessel walls have been demonstrated to be risk factors for patients with acute aortic dissection (AAD). Statins have anti-inflammatory and lipid-lowering effects, which suggest that statins may play an impo...
