Relationship of High‐Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol With Renal Function in Patients Treated With Atorvastatin

Relationship of High‐Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol With Renal Function in Patients Treated With Atorvastatin

BackgroundIt is not known whether the concentration of high‐density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol is related to renal function in statin‐treated patients. We therefore investigated whether HDL cholesterol levels predicted renal function in atorvastatin‐treated patients in the TNT (Treating to New Ta...
