1 OBJECTIVE: To compare effectiveness of rosuvastatin (RSV) with other statins on lowering low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and LDL-C goal attainment among patients with type 1 or type 2 diabetes mellitus. Rosuvastatin Calcium component of oligomeric golgi complex 2 Homo sapiens
2 OBJECTIVE: To compare effectiveness of rosuvastatin (RSV) with other statins on lowering low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and LDL-C goal attainment among patients with type 1 or type 2 diabetes mellitus. Rosuvastatin Calcium component of oligomeric golgi complex 2 Homo sapiens

4 RSV patients had significantly higher (p < 0.05) baseline mean LDL-C levels (138 vs. 117-131 mg/dL), lower average starting dose (11.7 vs. 17.0-63.7 mg) and were younger (p < 0.005) than patients on other statins (mean age 61 vs. 63-69 years).

5 Percent LDL-C reduction was significantly greater (p < 0.0001) with RSV (28.4%) compared to ATV (22.5%), SMV (20.1%), PRV (13.7%), FLV (15.8%), and LOV (17.3%). Rosuvastatin Calcium component of oligomeric golgi complex 2 Homo sapiens
6 CONCLUSIONS: Rosuvastatin was more effective in lowering LDL-C and achieving LDL-C treatment goals in the diabetes mellitus population as compared to other statins in real-world clinical practice setting. Rosuvastatin Calcium component of oligomeric golgi complex 2 Homo sapiens
