Thyroid volumes and serum VEGF levels in dyslipidemic patients: effects of statin treatment
Conclusion: Although statin treatment decreases serum VEGF levels in dyslipidemic patients without thyroid nodules, it has no
lowering effect on serum VEGF levels in patients with thyroid nodules. The decrease in thyroid nodule volume with statin treatment
was associated with neither metabolic parameters nor serum VEGF levels.
