Background Thiazolidinediones (TZDs) not only improve insulin resistance, lowering blood sugar, also has anti-atherosclerotic effect. However, whether the protective effect on cardiovascular pioglitazone is still controversial. Methods Totally 98 patients with coronary disease and diabetes mellitus were randomly divided into pioglitazone group (n = 48) receiving conventional therapy and pioglitazone (15 mg/day), and control group (n = 50) merely receiving conventional therapy. The patients were followed up for 12 months. The plasma level of Plasminogen activator Inhibitor 1 (PAI-1) and P-selectin were detected at baseline and after treatment for 12 months by ELISA, and major adverse cardiac events (MACE) were studied. Results Pioglitazone therapy for 12 months was associated with a significant decrease of PAI-1 [(7.9 ± 1.4 vs 4.2 ± 0.5)ng/mL, P < 0.05] and P-selectin[(16.6 ± 6.8 vs 12.4 ± 3.6)ng/mL, P < 0.05], MACE was significantly lower in the pioglitazone group than in the control group [acute coronary syndrome (ACS): 32.0% vs 10.4%, P < 0.05; target vessel revascularization:22.0% vs 6.3%, P < 0.05]. Conclusions Pioglitazone can effectively reduce the plasma level of PAI-1, P-selectin and the occurrence of MACE in patients with coronary heart disease and diabetes mellitus.
