LDL-cholesterol lowering and renal outcomes [PDF]
Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) are at high risk for cardiovascular events. Statins reduce cardiovascular risk in a broad spectrum of patients. This article summarizes the evidence that statins reduce risk in CKD patients, and that statins have a small but favorable effect on renal function.
