• Patients with previous cerebral arteritis, brain tumor, cerebral parasitic disease, cerebral arteriovenous malformation, cerebral cavernous hemangioma, cerebral aneurysm, severe craniocerebral injury, or intracranial infection
• Patients with previous severe valvular heart disease, atrial fibrillation, acute myocardial infarction or interventional therapy in the past 6 months, heart failure (patients classified as class III-IV according to the New York Heart Association [NYHA]) or patients with indications for pacemaker placement but without pacemaker installation or other malignant arrhythmias
• Patients contraindicate to antiplatelet therapy;
• Patients who must use other types of statins or other types of lipid-lowering drugs such as ezetimibe
