Summary
Prediabetes is associated to an increased risk of cardiovascular disease and mortality. Although metformin can delay progression to diabetes there is a lack of RCTs evaluating the effect of metformin on cardiovascular outcomes. MIMET aims to investigate if addition of metformin to standard care has effects on the occurrence of cardiovascular events after acute myocardial infarction in patients with newly detected prediabetes (identified by oral glucose tolerance test, HbA1c or fasting glucose levels).
