Effect of treatment with pravastatin or ezetimibe on endothelial function in patients with moderate hypercholesterolemia

Background/Aim: Statin treatment improves endothelial function. It is matter of debate, however, if this effect of statins is due to their action on low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) or to other non-lipidic (pleiotropic) effects. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether the effect of...
