Effect of Troglitazone in Insulin-Treated Patients with Type II Diabetes Mellitus
Open accessAbstract
BACKGROUND: Troglitazone is a new oral antidiabetic drug that increases the sensitivity of peripheral tissues to insulin. It may therefore increase the efficacy of exogenous insulin in patients with insulin-resistant diabetes mellitus. METHODS: We studied the effect of troglitazone or placebo in 350 patients with poorly controlled non-insulin-dependent (type 2) diabetes mellitus (glycosylated hemoglobin values, 8 to 12 percent; normal, 4.3 to 6.1 percent) despite therapy with at least 30 U of insulin daily. The patients were randomly assigned to receive 200 mg of troglitazone (116 patients), 600 mg of troglitazone (116 patients), or placebo (118 patients) daily for 26 weeks. Insulin doses were not increased and were reduced only to prevent hypoglycemia. Glycosylated hemoglobin, serum glucose while fasting, serum total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and triglycerides were measured 5 times during an 8-week base-line period and 10 times during the 26-week treatment period. Daily insulin doses were recorded during both periods. RESULTS: Ninety percent of the patients completed the study. The adjusted mean glycosylated hemoglobin values decreased by 0.8 and 1.4 percentage points, respectively, in the group given 200 mg of troglitazone and the group given 600 mg of troglitazone, and fasting serum glucose concentrations decreased by 35 and 49 mg per deciliter (1.9 and 2.7 mmol per liter), respectively, despite decreases in the insulin dose of 11 percent and 29 percent (P<0.001 for all comparisons with the placebo group). Serum total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol concentrations increased slightly and serum triglyceride concentrations decreased slightly in the troglitazone-treated patients. CONCLUSIONS: When given in conjunction with insulin, troglitazone improves glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
