Benefit of Early Statin Therapy in Patients With Acute Myocardial Infarction Who Have Extremely Low Low-
Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol
Estimates of Hazard Ratios for the Primary Endpoint in Selected SubgroupsHazard ratios are shown on a logarithmic scale. CI = confidence interval; hs-CRP = high-sensitivity C-reactive protein; NSTEMI = non–ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction; STEMI = ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction.

Several clinical trials with Statins have indicated the benefits of early treatment in ACS
Effects beyond lipid lowering may contribute to the early benefit
Statin therapy in patients with AMI with LDL-C level below 70 mg/dl was associated with improved clinical outcome.
