Pitavastatin Improves Cardiac Function in Patients with Heart Failure Regardless of its Cholesterol-lowering Effect
Journal of Cardiac Failure(2007)
Abstract
Purpose: Some statins have been reported to improve cardiac function, and decrease the incidence of heart failure (HF) in hyperlipidemic patients. This pilot study was therefore initiated to examine the effect of pitavastatin on serum markers and echocardiographic findings in patients with HF.
