In this study of mice given atorvastatin or PBS starting 7 days before creation of an arteriovenous fistula, use of atorvastatin was associated with favorable outward remodeling, preserved arteriovenous blood flow, and longer duration of primary arteriovenous fistula patency. These statin-mediated benefits occurred following reductions in the thrombogenic and inflammatory macrophage response detected within 2 weeks after arteriovenous fistula creation.
