About this trial
The purpose of this clinical trial is to understand whether the drug Ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) can prevent glucose intolerance in participants with hyperlipidemia who are taking statins. It will also assess the safety of UDCA. The primary questions it aims to answer are:
* Will UDCA reduce the incidence of glucose intolerance in participants taking oral statins? * Will the use of UDCA decrease other adverse events in patients taking oral statins?
Participants will:
* Take Atorvastatin combined with UDCA or a placebo daily for 6 months * Have follow-up visits on day 40, day 110, and day 180 Have their examination indicators recorded.

Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
HbA1c
Changes of glycosylated hemoglobin after taking ursodeoxycholic acid for half a year
Secondary outcomes
Concentration of fasting blood glucose
The concentration of fasting blood glucose was measured and serum was extracted for laboratory testing.
Concentration of fasting islets
The concentration of fasting islets was measured and serum was extracted for laboratory testing. we use the level of physiological parameter to describe the concentration of fasting islets.
Concentration of blood lipid
The concentration of blood lipid was measured and serum was extracted for laboratory testing.we use the level of physiological parameter to describe the concentration of blood lipid, including "the level of triglycerides","the level of low-density lipoprotein", "the level of high-density lipoprotein", "the level of total cholesterol" ,"the level of Lipoprotein(a)".
Body composition analysis Fat mass
The Body composition analysis was measured by the Inbody. we wue the physiological parameter to describe the body composition. e.g."Fat mass"
