Summary

This study looks at 4,000 adults with prediabetes and heart disease to see if a low-intensity statin combined with ezetimibe is better than a high-intensity statin alone at preventing new diabetes. Participants will be followed to track diabetes development and heart health. The goal is to find a safer way to manage cholesterol without raising diabetes risk.
