Abstract

Studies have shown interventions that reduce total and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels also decrease subsequent coronary heart disease (CHD) and stroke events in those with a history of CHD. However, it is uncertain whether pharmacological alteration of lipid levels in those with a history of cerebrovascular disease can prevent recurrence of either stroke or subsequent cardiovascular events.
