Summary

In patients with impaired glucose tolerance (IGT), the researchers want to study the relative effects of pioglitazone, simvastatin, or the combination of both on:

* intima media thickness (IMT) as an easily assessed marker of atherosclerosis
* heart rate variability (HRV) as a marker of autonomic neuropathy
* flow-mediated vasodilatation (FMD) of the brachial artery as a marker of endothelial function
* vascular and metabolic lab parameters
