About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Ischemic focused on measuring acute ischemic stroke

Eligibility Criteria

45 Years - 75 Years (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. 45 to 75 years old patients;
  2. Stroke involving the vascular territory of the middle cerebral artery (MCA) as judged by clinical and MRI evidences;
  3. Time from symptom onset to take the study assigned medication is within 24 hours;
  4. Statin naïve or discontinued at least 3 month before stroke onset;
  5. First ever stroke or mild sequelae (with modified Rankin Score 0-1) before the index event;
  6. Moderate neurological deficit with baseline NIHSS scoring from 4-20;
  7. MRI scans (T1W1、T2W2、T2Flair、DWI、SWI)accomplished from 12 to 48 hours after the onset;
  8. Consent form signed.

Exclusion Criteria:

-

Any of the following is regarded as a criterion for exclusion from the study:

  1. Stroke involving the vascular territory of the vertebrobasilar artery as judged by clinical and MRI evidences;
  2. Hemorrhagic transformation or intracranial hemorrhage on baseline MRI. MRI performed between 12-48 hours after the onset, if MRI provides evidences which met with the exclusion criteria, the patients will be excluded from the study;
  3. Any circumstances under which MRI scans can't be performed;
  4. Evidences suggesting cardiogenic stroke such as atrial fibrillation, acute coronary syndrome, patent foramen ovale , etc;
  5. Comatose with NIHSS 1a>1;

  7. Suitable for rt-Plasminogen Activator thrombolysis treatment;
  8. Receiving medication with possible neuroprotective functions after stroke onset;
  9. Currently take steroids therapy;
  10. Diagnosed with malignancy within 5 years;
  11. Patients with myopathy or serum creatine kinase > 3 times the upper limit of normal not caused by myocardial injury;
  12. Severe renal function damage (eGFR<30);
  13. Concurrent use ciclosporin;
  14. A history of hypersensitivity of statins and other severe complication;
  15. Child-bearing women ;
  16. Patients who are or may be pregnant;
  17. Other conditions under which patients not pertinent to attend the study as judged by the investigators.
