almost comparable with placebo treatment. The results for simvastatin 40 mg/day were substantially comparable with
those for rosuvastatin 20 mg/day. Pravastatin 40 mg/day was associated with a consistent relative risk reduction of newonset
DM (16%) compared with rosuvastatin 20 mg/day, and atorvastatin 80 mg/day resulted in an approximately 8%
relative risk reduction for new-onset DM compared with high-dose rosuvastatin.
