Abstract
The elderly patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) usually have more presence of comorbidities such as diabetes mellitus, hypertension, more complex coronary artery lesions, and reduced cardiac and overall physiologic reserve, resulting higher mortality and serious complications. Statin therapy in ACS patients has been proved to improve clinical outcomes. However, little is known about the effect of statin therapy in the very elderly patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI).
