Hepatosteatosis is highly prevalent among patients living with human immunodeficiency virus. In a 1-year, randomized, double-blind trial of atorvastatin or placebo, atorvastatin increased liver/spleen ratio among patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, indicating a reduction in hepatosteatosis. This reduction in hepatosteatosis is associated with reduction in low-density lipoprotein cholesterol with statin therapy.
肝脂肪变性在感染人类免疫缺陷病毒的患者中非常普遍。在一项为期1年的阿托伐他汀或安慰剂随机双盲试验中,阿托伐他汀增加了非酒精性脂肪性肝病患者的肝/脾比值,表明肝脂肪变性有所减轻。肝脂肪变性的这种减轻与他汀类药物治疗使低密度脂蛋白胆固醇降低有关。
