Samenvatting

Van de Garde E. Statines ter preventie van pneumonie. Huisarts Wet 2008;51(4):195-7.
Statines worden momenteel gebruikt bij de behandeling van hypercholesterolemie en de (secundaire) preventie van cardiovasculaire events. Enkele jaren geleden verschenen er in de medische literatuur aanwijzingen dat statines hiernaast ook een rol zouden kunnen spelen bij de preventie van een pneumonie. Het blijkt dat statines naast cholesterolverlagende eigenschappen ook zogenaamde pleiotrope (anti-inflammatoire en antioxidatieve) eigenschappen bezitten, die het beloop van bepaalde infecties gunstig kunnen beïnvloeden. In de meerderheid van de inmiddels verschenen onderzoeken naar het effect van statines op een pneumonie is een positief effect gevonden (mortaliteit en risico is verlaagd bij statinegebruikers in vergelijking tot niet-gebruikers). Het bewijs voor een effect van statines op het risico op en beloop van een pneumonie bestaat op dit moment echter nog steeds uit uitsluitend retrospectief onderzoek waarin associaties worden gevonden. Het uitkijken is nu naar het eerste prospectieve onderzoek dat deze effecten bevestigt en verder uitwerkt.
