Summary

Several crosssectional and prospective studies have shown that metabolic syndrome and its related components are associated with both prevalent and incident CKD .

Although the mechanisms for these cardiovascular benefits of Metformin and vildagliptin remain unclear, they extend well beyond glycemic lowering, and therefore are probably best considered diverse "cardiometabolic" pharmaceuticals rather than simply type 2 diabetes drugs.

Metformin and vildagliptin have known vasculoprotective actions, but the value of these drugs on drug-naïve diabetic patients during 24 week use warrants investigation. The investigator's purpose was to observe their effects on weight control, Cardiometabolic Risk Factors, Metabolic Syndrome risk, and diabetic nephrooathy Progression.
