Summary

This study looks at whether adding omega-3 to a common statin (atorvastatin) can better reduce plaque buildup in the neck arteries of people with type 2 diabetes and high cholesterol. About 105 adults will be randomly assigned to get either atorvastatin plus omega-3 or atorvastatin plus another drug (ezetimibe). The goal is to see which combo works best to slow or shrink plaque, measured by ultrasound over time.
