Study Arms (2)
Atorvastatin 20 mg
ACTIVE COMPARATORAfter the subject take PET CT, he or she is randomized to either " Atorvastatin 20 mg" group or " Atorvastatin 20 mg+ Pioglitazone 30 mg". The " Atorvastatin 20 mg" group is to take atorvastatin 20 mg and take follow up PET CT in 3 months
Atorvastatin 20 mg + Pioglitazone 30 mg
EXPERIMENTALAfter the subject take PET CT, he or she is randomized to either " Atorvastatin 20 mg" group or " Atorvastatin 20 mg+ Pioglitazone 30 mg". The " Atorvastatin 20 mg + Pioglitazone 30 mg" group is to take atorvastatin 20 mg + pioglitazone 30 mg and take follow up PET CT in 3 months
Interventions
atorvastatin 20 mg plus pioglitazone 30 mg QD for 3 months
