맨체스터 대학의 앤드류 트래포드(Andrew Trafford)교수가 진행한 실험에서는 비아그라를 처방받은 남성이 심장마비에 걸리 확률이 5.2%였던 반면, 그렇지 않은 쪽은 8.9%에 해당했다.
연구진은 비아그라가 포스포다이에스터레이스5(PDE5)를 억제하는 작용이 제2형 당뇨병 환자 심장 질환에도 도움을 주는 것으로 보인다고 밝혔다.
트래포드 교수는 비아그라가 “발기부전 치료 이외에도 부수적인 효능이 엄청나다”고 말했다.
해당 실험은 의학 저널 하트(Heart)에 게재되었다.
당뇨병 환자의 약 90% 이상이 제2형 당뇨병에 걸린 것으로 알려져 있다.
