“…High‐density lipoprotein combines with CHOL and forms HDL‐C, which can convey cholesterol from various tissues back to liver; conversely, LDL‐C conveys cholesterol from liver to various tissues (Brown, ; Yun, Mai, Zhang, & Xu, ). However, LDL will be oxidized as oxidized low‐density lipoprotein (OX‐LDL) that can make cholesterol stockpile in arterial walls causing arteriosclerosis easily when lots of peroxide exist in vivo (Aydin, Aygul, Altunkeser, Unlu, & Taner, ; Granger & Weaver, ; Shin, Edelberg, & Hong, ). In the study, cholesterol was attached to arterial walls with OX‐LDL, forming blood cake, because of ingesting fish oil with high oxidation degree.…”

“…Further, from week 24 to 48, LDL increased 13% in the rosuvastatin group which is a possible explanation for why the reduction in oxLDL was not sustained. Short term, several studies have shown that statins reduce oxLDL outside of HIV [26,27,4249]; however, few have follow-up to 48 weeks and the results are mixed [5052]. In a study of adults with ischemic cardiomyopathy, the atorvastatin dose appeared to play a role in oxLDL reduction over 48 weeks [50].…”

“…Similar results were found in the study of Aydin et al . where both rosuvastatin and atorvastatin lowered the inflammation markers in STEMI patients, whereas in another study, a loading dose of atorvastatin was found to reduce inflammatory response and myocardial dysfunction in STEMI patients [67, 68]. The inflammatory response has also been found to be reduced in percutaneous coronary intervention when a short-term high-dose atorvastatin treatment is administered [69].…”
