Study Arms (2)

Atorvastatin 20 mg

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

After 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

Drug: Atorvastatin 20mg

Atorvastatin 20 mg + Pioglitazone 30 mg

EXPERIMENTAL

After 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

Drug: Atorvastatin 20 mg + Pioglitazone 30 mg

Interventions
