Randomized Controlled Trial
The effect of statin treatment on glucose homeostasis in prediabetic individuals: A prospective, randomized, controlled trial.
This study aimed to evaluate the effects of rosuvastatin and pravastatin on glucose homeostasis and other biomarkers in individuals at high risk of developing diabetes. ⋯ Among prediabetic individuals with IFG, rosuvastatin treatment was associated with increased insulin resistance and decreased insulin sensitivity compared to pravastatin and control groups. Further research is needed to elucidate the underlying mechanisms and clinical implications of these findings.
