Cholesterol-Lowering drug May be Good for Avoiding Cataract降膽固醇藥物可能會好,為避免白內障
People who take statins such as Zocor or Lipitor, for example, have a 45 percent reduced risk of developing a cataract, a clouding of the lens of the eye, according to a report in this week's Journal of the American Medical Association.人誰採取他汀類,如zocor或立普妥,例如,有一個45 % ,從而降低風險和發展性白內障,混濁的眼球晶狀體對,根據一份報告,在這週的雜誌美國醫學協會。
Oxidative stress is thought to play a role in the development of cataracts, therefore, treatment with statins, which seem to have antioxidant as well as lipid-lowering properties, may be useful in preventing this common eye problem, says study co-author Kristine E. Lee, from the University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health, Madison.氧化應激被認為是發揮作用,在發展的白內障,因此,治療與他汀類,其中似乎有抗氧化以及脂質降低性能,可能是有用的在防止這一共同的眼睛問題,說,研究的共同作者, kristine e李,來自威斯康星大學醫學院和公共衛生,麥迪遜。
Lee hypothesized that statin use would reduce the risk of cataracts, but experts were surprised by the strength of the association.李推測他汀類的使用將減少白內障的風險,但專家們感到驚訝的力量,該協會。 Nonetheless, she agreed that it is premature to recommend statins solely for their possible role in cataract prevention and called for randomized trials to investigate this topic.不過,她同意,這是不成熟的建議,他汀類純粹為他們可能發揮的作用,在白內障的預防,並呼籲隨機對照臨床試驗,以調查這個課題。
This risk reduction uncovered in this study applied to the most common type of age-related cataract, called a nuclear cataract.這減少風險,發現在這項研究中的應用,以最常見的年齡相關性白內障,所謂的核性白內障。 The rates of other types — cortical and posterior subcapsular cataracts — were not significantly different between statin users and non-users.率,其他類型-皮質及後包膜白內障-無顯著性差異之間的他汀類使用者和非使用者。
