Résumé fourni par la source

The ACE trial is examining whether acarbose, an insulin-sparing postprandial glucose-lowering agent, can reduce cardiovascular (CV) events in patients who have coronary heart disease (CHD) and impaired glucose tolerance (IGT), with prevention of type 2 diabetes (T2D) as a secondary outcome.1., 2.
