Brief Summary

Compared to human insulins analogue insulins offer the option of optimizing metabolism also in type 2 diabetes. Especially, fast acting insulin analogues lower postprandial glucose levels more effectively than human regular insulin. However, it is not known whether therapy with analogue insulins can also improve the subclinically impaired myocardial function in type 2 diabetes. This prospective, randomized, open long term study compared the effects of a basal-bolus insulin therapy with analogue insulins versus human insulins on metabolic control and systolic and diastolic myocardial function, testing the hypothesis that optimized postprandial glucose control improves cardiac function and cardiovascular risk.
