Eligibility

Sex/Gender
All

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: 1. Patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus under adequate drug treatment and no insulin dependence 2. A positive test for myocardial ischemia during a previous treadmill exercise test (horizontal or downsloping ST-segment depression >=1.0 mm) 3. Multivessel coronary disease confirmed by coronary angiography, and coronary disease with an internal diameter reduction of >=70% of at least two major coronary branches 4. Preserved left ventricular function confirmed by transthoracic echodopplercardiography

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: 1. Myocardial infarction during the last 3 month 2. Severely impaired myocardial function (ejection fraction <45%) 3. ECG changes that could interfere with the interpretation of the ST segment 4. Impaired hepatic or renal function 5. Progressive fatal disease 6. Mental disorder

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
We will evaluate the effect of two hypoglycemic drugs on ischemic preconditioning by two sequential treadmill exercise tests (warm-up phenomenon). The warm-up phenomenon will be analysed by following parameters: 1. The time to onset of 1.0-mm ST-segment depression (the horizontal or downsloping ST-segment depressions were considered) 2. Rate pressure product (heart rate x systolic blood pressure) at the onset of 1.0-mm ST-segment depression

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
