That may have pushed their diabetes too far along to allow them to see any benefit from the drugs. "This may be too late a state to expect major benefits from the medications," says Ganda...
...fact, when the trial's investigators looked specifically at diabetics with the highest triglyceride levels, they did see a benefit, with those patients enjoying a lower risk of heart disease than the volunteers with lower triglyceride levels. "Maybe one can say that, at a later stage of the disease, adding a fibrate is not spectacularly beneficial except for this subgroup," says Ganda...

It's possible, for instance, that younger, newly diagnosed patients with diabetes may actually benefit from aggressively lowering their blood pressure, cholesterol and blood sugar levels - a trend that may have been lost in the noise of the current studies, which included patients who were up to 79 years old. "I tend to be far more tuned in to getting normal targets in my younger patients," says Dr. Daniel Einhorn, medical director of the Scripps Whittier Diabetes Institute...
