  1. Possible modification of Alzheimer's disease by statins in midlife: interactions with genetic and non-genetic risk factors

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 59 out of 100. Frontiers in aging neuroscience 2014-04-23 Brain scans and imaging

    The benefits of statins, commonly prescribed for hypercholesterolemia, in treating Alzheimer's disease (AD) have not yet been fully established.

  2. Unintended effects of statins from observational studies in the general population: systematic review and meta-analysis

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 83 out of 100. BMC medicine 2014-03-22 Brain scans and imaging

    Our systematic review and meta-analyses indicate that high quality observational data can provide relevant evidence on unintended effects of statins to add to the evidence from RCTs.
