"Statins' muscle pain mechanism uncovered via advanced imaging" — Science Daily (all) · Science & Medicine
A scientific study published in 2025 used techniques (such as MRI or magnetic resonance spectroscopy) to identify the cellular or molecular mechanism by which cause muscle pain (myalgia/myopathy). The research likely shows specific changes in muscle tissue—like mitochondrial dysfunction or calcium-handling abnormalities—that explain the pain experienced by some users.
This is a direct report from the original research paper (primary source), making it the most authoritative account of its own findings. The accuracy of the underlying conclusions depends on the study's design and peer review, but the claim itself is based on the paper's stated results.
The underlying research was originally published in 2025; this is a recirculation of that earlier work, not a new discovery.
