Effects of Short-term Intensive Statin Therapy on Lipid Levels

Effects of Short-term Intensive Statin Therapy on Lipid Levels in Patients With Ischemic Stroke or Large Artery Atherosclerosis: A Prospective Observational Study

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 15 Jan 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

Acute cerebral infarction (ACI), often linked to arterial stenosis, is a major cause of death and disability. Statins are cornerstone therapies for secondary prevention, effectively lowering LDL-C and stabilizing plaques. However, patient response to intensive statin therapy varies significantly. This prospective study aims to analyze the short-term lipid-lowering effects and influencing factors of such therapy in ACI patients with stenosis, to guide personalized treatment and improve outcomes.
