Objectives

Narrative objectives1

Although it is unclear if hyperlipidemia is a risk factor of stroke or not, inhibition of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase can decrease the incidence of stroke in the patients with ischemic heart disease. The neuroprotective mechanism beyond cholesterol-lowering effects could be expected to attenuate cerebrovascular inflammation and atherosclerosis. The present study hypothesizes if pravastatin prevents the ischemic stroke patients from recurrent stroke safe and sound.
