Background:Recentmeta-analyses have raised the pos-sibility that rosiglitazone maleate may increase the risk of ischemic cardiovascular events, whereas pioglitazone hydrochloride could not be linked to such a risk.We com-pared cardiovascular outcomes andmortality between pa-tients initiating pioglitazone vs rosiglitazone therapy. Methods: We assembled an inception cohort of Medi-care beneficiaries older than 65 years with state-sponsored prescription drug benefits who had diabetes mellitus and initiated treatmentwith rosiglitazone or pio
