Atorvastatin in Nonischemic Left Ventricular Systolic Dysfunction

Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 2006
Sola et al. ([1][1]) found that atorvastatin improved left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction and reduced LV end diastolic dimensions in patients with nonischemic heart failure (HF) ([1][1]). Nonischemic HF is a heterogeneous condition with a variable clinical course.
