Pleiotropic effects between statin intake and inflammation parameters in two distinct population-based studies

Abstract Background: Besides their lipid lowering effects, statins exhibit numerous beneficial and adverse effects (so called pleiotropic effects). A major pleiotropic effect of statins is their anti-inflammatory properties, but the impact on a wide range of inflammation-related proteins involved in...
