Burgeoning Dilemmas in the Management of Diabetes and Cardiovascular Disease

Abstract: Abstract-A paradoxical increase in mortality attributable to diabetes has occurred, particularly during the last decade, despite the overall decrease in mortality attributable to coronary artery disease in patients without diabetes. Insulin resistance with or without frank type 2 diabetes has emerged as a major determinant of accelerated coronary artery disease and its sequelae. The advent of insulin sensitizers enables clinicians to target treatment of insulin resistance, as well as hyperglycemia and dyslipid… Show more

“…Although white adipose tissue (WAT) plays an important role in mammalian energy homeostasis by preventing lipotoxicity and providing a source of energy in times of need, excess amounts of WAT relates to reduction in the number of mitochondria and inflammation of the tissue (Semple et al 2004, Dahlman et al 2006, subsequently resulting in metabolic dysfunction (Trayhurn & Beattie 2001. Obesity is associated with several serious complications including type 2 diabetes, coronary heart disease, and certain types of cancer and, therefore, significantly increases morbidity risks in those affected (Sobel et al 2003). The current prevalence of obesity most likely resulted from the notable decrease in overall physical activity and increase in consumption of readily available energy-dense foods (Ledikwe et al 2006).…”

“…The rationale and design of the BARI 2D trial have been described previously 10, 11. Briefly, the BARI 2D trial randomized 2368 patients with both type 2 diabetes mellitus and SIHD to receive either prompt revascularization with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) or coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) in addition to intensive medical therapy or to intensive medical therapy alone and to receive either IS or IP therapy.…”

“…97,98 The Bypass Angioplasty Revascularization Investigation 2 Diabetes (BARI 2D) trial was a randomized comparison of myocardial revascularization, either with CABG or PCI, versus optimal medical treatment (OMT) in DM patients with stable CAD considered eligible for either PCI or CABG. 99 Once the most appropriate revascularization technique had been chosen, patients were randomized to OMT alone or to revascularization plus OMT. At 5 years, there were no significant differences in the combined endpoint of death, MI, or stroke between the OMT (12%) and revascularization (12%) arms.…”
