Statins in Aortic Disease

open access: yesCurrent Pharmaceutical Design, 2018
Background: Numerous studies indicate that statins have multiple beneficial actions (known as ‘pleiotropic actions') on cardiovascular system through the improvement of endothelial dysfunction, inflammation, oxidative stress, excessive arterial thrombosis, and stabilization of the atherosclerotic plaque.
