Statin Use is Associated with Reduced Mortality in Mechanically Ventilated Patients: A Retrospective Propensity-Matched Analysis of MIMIC-III Database

Abstract Background We sought to determine whether statin treatment has a protective effect on the outcome of critically ill patients on mechanical ventilation. Methods Patients who underwent mechanical ventilation were selected from the MIMIC-III database. Patients with statin usage were allocated...
