Statins and risk of type 2 diabetes: mechanism and clinical implications

Open access
Laakso, Markku, Fernandes Silva, Lilian·2023·Frontiers in Endocrinology

Abstract

Statins are widely used to prevent cardiovascular disease events. Cardiovascular diseases and type 2 diabetes are tightly connected since type 2 diabetes is a major risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. Additionally, cardiovascular diseases often precede the development of type 2 diabetes. These two diseases have common genetic and environmental antecedents. Statins are effective in the lowering of cardiovascular disease events. However, they have also important side effects, including an increased risk of type 2 diabetes. The first study reporting an association of statin treatment with the risk of type 2 diabetes was the WOSCOPS trial (West of Scotland Coronary Prevention Study) in 2001. Other primary and secondary cardiovascular disease prevention studies as well as population-based studies have confirmed original findings. The purpose of our review is to examine and summarize the most important findings of these studies as well as to describe the mechanisms how statins increase the risk of type 2 diabetes.

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.
