Abstract

The article presents a study which compared the risk of acute myocardial infarction (AMI), acute heart failure (AHF) or all-cause death among pioglitazone- and rosiglitazone-patients in a managed-care population. Previous meta-analysis, prospective studies and observational studies have provided inconsistent results on the safety and effectiveness of thiazolidinediones (TZDs). The study concludes that there were no significant differences found in the risk of AMI, AHF or death when directly comparing TZDs with a propensity score-matched population.
