The effects of treatment with atorvastatin versus rosuvastatin on endothelial dysfunction in patients with hyperlipidaemia

Statins can reduce cardiovascular events and improve endothelial function. However, differences in the effect of statins on endothelial dysfunction have not been researched sufficiently. Here, we aimed to compare the effects of atorvastatin versus rosuvastatin on endothelial function via flow–mediated and endothelial–independent dilation
