Adjusted for the five variables that were statistically significant in the original study for an association with SAMS [15].
Other statins include cerivastatin, fluvastatin, and pitavastatin.
Adjusted for the three variables that were significantly different between Coenzyme Q10 users and non-users in Table 1.
