Statin use is not associated with inflammation among Chilean women of Mapuche and non-Mapuche ancestry with gallstones
Statins are prescribed to lower cholesterol and can also decrease the risk of gallstone formation by reducing inflammation. Researchers assessed whether statin use reduces inflammation among women who have already developed gallstones. They analyzed 92 inflammation markers among 400 women in Chile, including 200 women with Mapuche Amerindian ancestry and 200 women of Latina/European ancestry.
