Summary
This study examined whether taking statins (cholesterol-lowering drugs) before major non-cardiac surgery improves survival and recovery. Researchers tracked 70,000 adults who had elective surgery, comparing those on statins to those not. The goal was to see if statins reduce deaths and increase days spent at home after surgery.
