Atorvastatin treatment does not abolish inflammatory mediated cardiovascular risk in subjects with chronic kidney disease
Abstract Individuals with chronic kidney disease are at an increased risk for cardiovascular disease. This risk may partially be explained by a chronic inflammatory state in these patients, reflected by increased arterial wall and cellular inflammation. Statin treatment decreases cardiovascular risk...
