Abstract

Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the most frequent complication of diabetes mellitus (DM) and the main cause of death in patients with diabetes. Normalization of glycemia prevents the development and progression of microvascular complications of diabetes, it should be sought to achieve normoglucemia in the treatment of patients with type 2 diabetes. In contrast to the relatively weak contribution of intensive glycemic control to reducing the incidence of cardiovascular events in diabetes mellitus, the correction of lipid disorders in patients with diabetes, according to a number of studies, contributes to a significant reduction in macrovascular complications of diabetes mellitus.
