- Psoriasis and systemic inflammatory diseases: potential mechanistic links between skin disease and co-morbid conditions. (2010, background): “Statins are proposed to have antiinflammatory effects in addition to lipid-lowering effects (Albert et al., 2001).”
- Depression and immune function: central pathways to morbidity and mortality. (2002, background): “A prospective trial of statins produced reductions in CRP, providing evidence that these drugs have anti-inflammatory effects in addition to their ability to lower lipids [45].”
- Role of oxidative modifications in atherosclerosis. (2004, background): “In large part, this prediction has already been fulfilled as lipid-lowering (7), smoking cessation (698), weight loss (1109) and improved glucose control (775) have all been associated with a reduction in circulating markers of inflammation.”
