Effects of Pitavastatin Treatments on the Plasma Lgi3 Level in the Patients With Dyslipidemia

October 14, 2020 updated by: Yonsei University

Effects of Pitavastatin Treatments on the Plasma Lgi3 Level in the Patients With Dyslipidemia: A Randomized Crossover Trial

Leucine-rich glioma inactivated 3(Lgi3) has been postulated to have a pro-inflammatory adipokine that inter-plays with other adipokines in adipogenesis and metabolic inflammation according to recent investigations. Thus, in this study, we sought to demonstrate that the treatment of statin can decrease Lgi3 level along with the decrease of the atherosclerosis to further evaluate the role of Lgi3 in atherosclerosis.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Patients who assigned to the pitavastatin treatment first group will be given the pitavastatin 4 mg qd treatment for 12 weeks after randomization, followed by wash-out period of 3 weeks and life-style modification treatment for 12 weeks. Similarly, patients who assigned to the life-style modification treatment first group, will be treated with life-style modification treatment for 12 weeks after randomization, followed by wash-out period of 3 weeks and pitavastatin treatment for 12 weeks.
