Outcome of intracerebral haemorrhage patients pre-treated with statins.
Eur. J. Neurol.. 2010 Mar;17(3):443-8, PMID: 19912325
Statins treatment may have potential clinical impact in vascular disease beyond cholesterol lowering. Its benefits have been documented in cerebral ischaemia and in subarachnoid haemorrhage. In intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH), experimental models in statin-treated animals have better outcome than non-treated ones, but in humans the relationship is unclear. We investigated whether patients treated with statins before the onset of intracerebral haemorrhage have a better outcome at 3 months than patients without statins pre-treatment.
