Statins alone linked to fitness decline in a cohort’s older women

In this cohort of older adults with abnormal blood fats, fitness fell 4% from baseline over 24 months with statins alone in women, but not men.In this cohort of older adults with abnormal blood fats, fitness fell 4% from baseline over 24 months with statins alone in women, but not men.
