Current work
Ongoing CTT Collaboration analyses are extending the available evidence to include the effects of statin therapy on:
- Other types of people: since there remains doubt as to whether the benefits of statin in other patient groups are comparable to the groups for whom the effects have already been reported
- Other types of health outcome: since it has been postulated that statins may have additional beneficial non-vascular effects (e.g. protective effects against pancreatitis and heart failure)
