New RPTH Journal Research: Statins Reduce Thrombosis Risk but Not Severity of Pulmonary Embolism
RPTH Journal shared a post on LinkedIn:
”Recent studies suggest that statins may reduce the incidence of thrombosis in patients taking statins, but do statins impact severity?
This single-center retrospective study of nearly 1600 individuals suggest that statins don’t affect severity or outcomes of pulmonary embolism.”
