| description | The growing interest to metformin in areas beyond the limits of diabetology serves as a stimulus for further evaluation of its effectiveness as a potential modulator of cancer morbidity and obesity epidemic. Gradually detectable differences in the intensity of these effects of the drug can be explained by an insufficient number of randomized trials, differences in the control groups (reference points), gender, age, pharmacogenetic and other factors, the study of which collectively promised to increase the likelihood of more favorable clinical effects of metformin and other antidiabetic biguanides in discussed areas. |
