Low-dose Aspirin may Not Significantly Reduce Type 2 Diabetes Risk
In the 1,176 patients younger than 65 the difference among events in the two groups was not significant.
Aspirin was well tolerated: in comparing bleeding events, the researchers reported 13 hemorrhagic strokes, with no statistically significant difference
between aspirin takers and non-takers (six such strokes in the aspirin group; seven in the non-aspirin group).
There was a comparable number of the combined endpoint of serious hemorrhagic events (hemorrhagic strokes and major gastrointestinal bleeds).
While this study did not find that low-dose aspirin significantly reduced the risk of atherosclerotic events in primary prevention therapy in patients with type 2 diabetes, the authors suggest more research is needed.
The study will appear in the November 12 print issue of JAMA.
