Abstract
The effects of lipid-lowering drugs [including statins, ezetimibe, and proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) inhibitors] on hyperlipidaemia have been established. Some may have treatment effects beyond their reported properties, offering potential opportunities for drug repurposing. Epidemiological studies have reported conflicting findings on the relationship between lipid-lowering medication use and sarcopenia risk.
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia, and Muscle is a prestigious, peer-reviewed international publication committed to disseminating research and clinical insights pertaining to cachexia, sarcopenia, body composition, and the physiological and pathophysiological alterations occurring throughout the lifespan and in various illnesses across the spectrum of life sciences. This journal serves as a valuable resource for physicians, biochemists, biologists, dieticians, pharmacologists, and students alike.
