🔍 Estatinas en diabetes tipo 2: ¿debemos tratar a casi todos los pacientes?
Un gran estudio de cohorte en el Reino Unido mostró que las estatinas reducen la mortalidad y los eventos cardiovasculares mayores en adultos con diabetes tipo 2 en todos los niveles de riesgo basal, incluyendo pacientes catalogados como “bajo riesgo”.
Esto sugiere que la diabetes tipo 2, por sí misma, podría ser un criterio suficiente para considerar cardioprotección farmacológica con estatinas.
