pubmed:abstractText |
In patients after renal transplantation functional arterial vessel wall properties are impaired. Whether 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase inhibitors have a sustained effect on endothelial function and arterial distensibility in patients after renal transplantation is not clear. The authors studied the effects of a long-term therapy with fluvastatin on large artery distensibility and flow-mediated vasodilation (FMD) in hypercholesterolemic patients after renal transplantation in a prospective, blinded, and randomized trial.
