I’m pleased to share our latest publication titled “Evaluation of Statins Use in Hemodialysis Patients: A Retrospective Analysis of Clinical and Safety Outcomes” in Pharmaceuticals - MDPI
This real world retrospective study examined 179 hemodialysis patients in Saudi Arabia to assess the efficacy and safety of statin therapy, focusing on lipid profile changes and the incidence of new atherosclerotic events.
Key findings:
- Atorvastatin and rosuvastatin showed modest reductions in LDL-C levels, but without significant cardiovascular event reduction.
- Rosuvastatin use was associated with a statistically higher incidence of atherosclerotic events—but findings were limited by sample size.
- Liver enzymes and CK levels remained within safe limits across all groups, reinforcing the safety of statins in this population.
- These results align with previous landmark trials (4D, AURORA, SHARP) and underline the limited benefit of statins in hemodialysis patients.
- While statins are standard in cardiovascular risk management, their utility in hemodialysis patients remains controversial. Our real-world data from Saudi Arabian population contribute to this critical debate, emphasizing the need for individualized treatment strategies in hemodialysis populations.

الفراغ النفسي ليس قلة انشغال، أحيانًا يكون فقدان معنى، حتى لو كنت مشغولًا طول اليوم، إذا لم يكن لديك شيء تشعُر أنه يضيف لحياتك، الفراغ سوف يظلّ معك في كل مكان.
