There is one clinical trial.
This research will help us to learn if the medicine called metformin reduces the risk of death, heart attacks, and/or strokes in patients who have pre-diabetes and heart or blood vessel problems.
Description: The primary outcome measure is the time to first occurrence of death, non-fatal myocardial infarction or stroke, hospitalization for unstable angina with objective evidence of acute myocardial ischemia, or coronary revascularization driven by acute or progressive symptoms.
Measure: Time in days to death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, stroke, hospitalization for unstable angina, or symptom-driven coronary revascularization Time: through study completion, an average of 4.5 yearsDescription: Time to first occurrence of death, myocardial infarction, or stroke Time to first occurrence of a primary endpoint event, peripheral arterial disease event, or hospitalization for congestive heart failure Cumulative incidence of all components of the primary endpoint, including recurrent or multiple events in the same participant Cumulative incidence and time to first occurrence of each component of the primary outcome measure, peripheral arterial disease events, and hospitalization for congestive heart failure
