[Comparative Randomized Study of the Effects of Long-Term Therapy With Rosuvastatin and Combination of Atorvastatin and Ezetimibe on Carbohydrate Metabolism and Adipokines Levels in Patients With Coronary Artery Disease and Diabetes Mellitus].

Objective: This open randomized study compares the effects of 24-week-long treatment with rosuvastatin and with atorvastatin coadministered with ezetimibe on the parameters of carbohydrate metabolism and the plasma levels of adipokynes in patients with coronary artery disease and type 2 diabetes mellitus or impaired glucose tolerance (IGT).

Method: A total of 31 patients with coronary artery disease and type 2 diabetes mellitus or IGT were recruited in the study. Patients were randomized into two groups: group 1 included patients who received rosuvastatin therapy in an average dose of 12.
