Statin Use in Cervical Artery Dissection and Subsequent Ischemic Stroke.
Statin therapy did not significantly reduce the risk of subsequent ischemic stroke, major hemorrhage, functional outcome, or mortality. While statins are beneficial in reducing vascular events and improving outcomes in ischemic stroke, its benefits in CAD-related ischemic strokes are less clear. These findings highlight the need for individualized treatment strategies and further research to optimize secondary prevention in CAD-related stroke.
