Statin Therapy and Stroke Risk in Patients with Hypercholesterolaemia: A population-based Longitudinal Study Using Electronic Health Records in South London

2025-03-11

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> We aim to evaluate the impact of statin prescription on stroke risk in patients with hypercholesterolaemia and to assess disparities in statin prescribing. <h4>Methods</h4> We analysed electronic health records from patients with hypercholesterolaemia, registered in 41 general practices in south London between 2005 and 2021. The cause-specific hazard ratio of statin prescription on stroke, ad...
