The effect of intensive statin therapy in non-symptomatic intracranial arteries: The STAMINA-MRI sub-study

Background and aimsPleiotropic effects of statins result in the stabilization of symptomatic intracranial arterial plaque. However, little is known about the effect of statins in non-symptomatic cerebral arteries. We hypothesized that intensive statin therapy could produce a change in the non-sympto...
