Objective:To explore the effect of atorvastatin calcium on the carotid atherosclerotic plaque, serum lipid level, and cerebral hemodynamic indicators in patients with transient ischemic attack (TIA).Methods:A total of 80 patients with TIA and carotid atherosclerotic plaque who were admitted in our hospital and confirmed by the ultrasound were included in the study and randomized into the treatment group and the control group (n = 40). The patients in the two groups were given TIA routine treatments and aspirin. On this basis, the patients in the treatment group were given atorvastatin calcium. The carotid ultrasound before treatment and 6 months after treatment in the two groups was performed to compare the atherosclerotic plaque area and IMT. The serum lipid level and cerebral hemodynamic parameters were detected. Results:IMT and carotid plaque area after treatment in the treatment group were significantly reduced when compared with before treatment (P<0.05). IMT and carotid plaque area after treatment in the treatment group were significantly lower than those in the control group (P<0.05). The comparison of TC, TG, LDL, and HDL levels before treatment between the two groups was not statistically significant (P>0.05). TC, TG, and LDL levels after treatment were significantly reduced when compared with before treatment (P<0.05), while HDL level was significantly elevated when compared with before treatment (P<0.05). TC, TG, and LDL levels after treatment in the treatment group were significantly lower than those in the control group (P<0.05), while HDL level was significantly higher than that in the control group (P<0.05). The average blood velocity and average blood flow volume of cerebral circulation after treatment in the treatment group were significantly higher than those in the control group (P<0.05), while the cerebrovascular characteristic resistance and peripheral resistance were significantly lower than those in the control group (P<0.05).Conclusions:Atorvastatin calcium in the treatment of TIA can sign
