[QUOTE="Spiker, post: 630971, member: 102150"] Doesn't it depend on whether the base odds of a non diabetic getting diabetes "A" are higher than the base odds of a diabetic getting complications "B"? If the ratio of B:A is lower than the HRs for complications, then the statins are making it net worse. So OK I answered my own question on why they only say "no harm done" despite the statins showing good HR for complications. I guess as a diabetic this data does incline me to take statins. Just need to find one I can tolerate... [/QUOTE]
