Diabetes drug 'protects arteries'
Omschrijving
A drug given to help people with diabetes may also slow thickening of the artery walls that can lead to heart disease, research suggests. Pioglitazone helps improve the body's sensitivity to the hormone insulin, which is lacking in diabetes. Tests on patients given pioglitazone showed their arteries were less thick than those given another diabetes drug. The University of Chicago study was published online by the Journal of the American Medical Association. [Ben Licher]
