Summary of intima-media area ratios [intima/(intima + media), I/(I + M)]. There was no significant difference between the rats not receiving statins in any of the three groups or the lean Zucker (LZ) and obese Zucker (OZ) rats treated with statins. Statin-treated Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats showed a 25% decrease in intimal hyperplasia (IH; P < .05). ∗P < .05 compared with animals in the no-statin groups. Fluva, Fluvastatin; Simva, simvastatin.
