Key clinical point: Statin exposure reduces the risk for and improves the prognosis of gastric cancer.
Major finding: The statin-exposed vs -nonexposed population showed a significantly reduced incidence (odds ratio [OR] 0.78; P < .001) and improved prognosis (OR 0.78; P = .002) of gastric cancer.
Study details: This was a meta-analysis of 19 studies that analyzed the correlation between statin exposure and the occurrence and progression of gastric cancer.
Disclosures: This study did not receive any funding. The authors declared no conflicts of interest.
