摘要
A recent clinical trial showed no beneficial effects of statin treatment in patients with Alzheimer disease (AD) and normal cholesterol levels. Other studies show that the effects of statins can vary depending on cholesterol levels and stage of disease, so statins should not be ruled out as an AD therapy.
