A consensus statement from the Japan Diabetes Society (JDS): a proposed algorithm for pharmacotherapy in people with type 2 diabetes-2nd Edition (English version). Diabetol Int 2024; 15:327-345. [PMID: 39101173 PMCID: PMC11291844 DOI: 10.1007/s13340-024-00723-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/25/2024] [Accepted: 02/08/2024] [Indexed: 08/06/2024]
Abstract
The Japan Diabetes Society (JDS) adopted a sweeping decision to release consensus statements on relevant issues in diabetes management that require updating from time to time and launched a "JDS Committee on Consensus Statement Development." In March 2020, the committee's first consensus statement on "Medical Nutrition Therapy and Dietary Counseling for People with Diabetes" was published. In September 2022, a second consensus "algorithm for pharmacotherapy in people with type 2 diabetes" was proposed. In developing an algorithm for diabetes pharmacotherapy in people with type 2 diabetes, the working concept was that priority should be given to selecting such medications as would appropriately address the diabetes pathology in each patient while simultaneously weighing the available evidence for these medications and the prescribing patterns in clinical practice in Japan. These consensus statements are intended to present the committee's take on diabetes management in Japan, based on the evidence currently available for each of the issues addressed. It is thus hoped that practicing diabetologists will not fail to consult these statements to provide the best available practice in their respective clinical settings. Given that the persistent dual GIP/GLP-1 receptor agonist tirzepatide was approved in April 2023, these consensus statements have been revised1). In this revision, specifically, tirzepatide was added to the end of [likely involving insulin resistance] of "Obese patients" in Step 1: "Select medications to address the diabetes pathology involved" in Fig. 2. While the sentence, "Insulin insufficiency and resistance can be assessed by referring to the various indices listed in the JDS 'Guide to Diabetes Management.' was mentioned in the previous edition as well, "While insulin resistance is analogized based on BMI, abdominal obesity, and visceral fat accumulation, an assessment of indicators (e.g., HOMA-IR) is desirable" was added as information in order to more accurately recognize the pathology. Regarding Step 2: "Give due consideration to safety," "For renal excretion" was added to the "Rule of thumb 2: Avoid glinides in patients with renal impairment." The order of the medications in "rule of thumb 3: Avoid thiazolidinediones and biguanides in patients with heart failure (in whom they are contraindicated)." to thiazolidinediones then biguanides. In the description of the lowest part of Fig. 2, for each patient failing to achieve his/her HbA1c control goal, "while reverting to step 1" was changed to "while reverting to the opening" and "including reassessment if the patient is indicated for insulin therapy" was added. In the separate table, the column for tirzepatides was added, while the two items, "Characteristic side effects" and "Persistence of effect" were added to the area of interest. The revision also carried additional descriptions of the figure and table such as tirzepatides and "Characteristic side effects" in the statement, and while not mentioned in the proposed algorithm figure, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is covered from this revision for patients with comorbidities calling for medical attention. Moreover, detailed information was added to the relative/absolute indication for insulin therapy, the Kumamoto Declaration 2013 for glycemic targets, and glycemic targets for older people with diabetes. Again, in this revision, it is hoped that the algorithm presented here will not only contribute to improved diabetes management in Japan, but will continue to evolve into a better algorithm over time, reflecting new evidence as it becomes available.

Abstract
Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) is a leading cause of cardiovascular mortality and is increasingly prevalent in our population. Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) can safely and effectively lower glucose levels while concurrently managing the full spectrum of ASCVD risk factors and improving patients' long-term prognosis. Several cardiovascular outcome trials (CVOTs) have been carried out to further investigate the cardiovascular benefits of GLP-1RAs. Analyzing data from CVOTs can provide insights into the pathophysiologic mechanisms by which GLP-1RAs are linked to ASCVD and define the use of GLP-1RAs in clinical practice. Here, we discussed various mechanisms hypothesized in previous animal and preclinical human studies, including blockade of the production of adhesion molecules and inflammatory factors, induction of endothelial cells' synthesis of nitric oxide, protection of mitochondrial function and restriction of oxidative stress, suppression of NOD-like receptor thermal protein domain associated protein three inflammasome, reduction of foam cell formation and macrophage inflammation, and amelioration of vascular smooth muscle cell dysfunction, to help explain the cardiovascular benefits of GLP-1RAs in CVOTs. This paper provides an overview of the clinical research, molecular processes, and possible therapeutic applications of GLP-1RAs in ASCVD, while also addressing current limitations in the literature and suggesting future research directions.

The impact of empagliflozin and metformin on cardiac parameters in patients with mid-range ejection fraction heart failure without diabetes. J Med Life 2024; 17:57-62. [PMID: 38737651 PMCID: PMC11080507 DOI: 10.25122/jml-2023-0340] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/28/2023] [Accepted: 11/17/2023] [Indexed: 05/14/2024] Open
Abstract
Heart failure (HF) remains a significant problem for healthcare systems, requiring the use of intervention and multimodal management strategies. We aimed to assess the short-term effect of empagliflozin (EMPA) and metformin on cardiac function parameters, including ventricular dimension-hypertrophy, septal thickness, ejection fraction (EF), and N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) levels in patients with HF and mildly reduced EF. A case-control study included 60 newly diagnosed patients with HF. Patients were divided into two groups: Group E received standard HF treatment (carvedilol, bumetanide, sacubitril-valsartan, spironolactone) plus EMPA 10 mg daily, and Group M received standard HF treatment plus metformin 500 mg daily. After three months of treatment, Group E had a significantly higher EF than Group M compared to initial measurements (a change of 9.2% versus 6.1%, respectively). We found similar results in the left ventricular end-systolic dimension (LVESD), with mean reductions of 0.72 mm for Group E and 0.23 mm for Group M. Regarding cardiac indicators, the level of NT-proBNP was considerably decreased in both groups. However, the reduction was significantly greater in group E than in group M compared to the initial level (mean reduction: 719.9 vs. 973.6, respectively). When combined with quadruple anti-heart failure therapy, metformin enhanced several echocardiographic parameters, showing effects similar to those of EMPA when used in the same treatment regimen. However, the benefits of EMPA were more pronounced, particularly regarding improvements in EF and LVESD.

Abstract
This study focuses on the interaction between the antihyperlipidemic drug fluvastatin (FLV) and the antidiabetic drug empagliflozin (EMP), which are commonly co-administered medications. EMP's impact on FLV levels is attributed to its inhibition of organic anion transporting polypeptide 1B1 (OATP1B1), responsible for FLV liver uptake, consequently elevating FLV concentrations in blood. Traditional extraction methods for FLV faced difficulties due to its high hydrophobicity. In this study, a hydrophobic natural deep eutectic solvent (NDES) using air assisted dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction (AA-DLLME) was utilized as an excellent choice for achieving the highest extraction recovery, reaching 96% for FLV and 92% for EMP. The NDES was created through the combination of menthol and hippuric acid in a 4 : 1 ratio, making it a green and cost-effective pathway. Liquid phase microextraction followed by spectrofluorometric measurements of FLV at λem = 395 nm and EMP at λem = 303 nm, with excitation at a single wavelength of 275 nm was carried out. Response surface methodology (RSM) relying on central composite design (CCD) was used to optimize the variables affecting the AA-NDES-DLLME. The optimized conditions for extraction are: NDES volume of 200 μL, centrifugation time of 15 minutes, air-agitation cycle of 6 cycles, and sample pH of 4.0. Under these optimized conditions, the developed method exhibited good linearity and precision. The method showed good recoveries from rabbit plasma samples spiked at varying concentrations of the analyzed compounds. To assess the applicability and effectiveness of the hydrophobic DES, the validated method was applied to extract the studied drugs from rabbit plasma samples after oral administration of FLV alone and in combination with EMP. The pharmacokinetic parameters of FLV were calculated in both cases to investigate any changes and determine the need for dose adjustment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although observational studies have shown that physical activity is a protective factor for acute pancreatitis, the causal associations between PA/ sedentary behavior and acute pancreatitis (AP) and chronic pancreatitis (CP) remain unclear. METHODS We used Mendelian randomization as a strategy to assess the causalities between exposures and outcomes by simulating randomized experiments with genetic variation. The collected genetic variants data of physical activity were from UK Biobank, the data on sedentary behavior were also from UK Biobank, and both of them could be found in the GWAS catalog, and the data on AP and CP were from FinnGen. There were three physical activity related activity patterns (moderate to vigorous physical activity [MVPA], accelerometer-based physical activity with average acceleration, [AccAve] and accelerometer-based physical activity with accelerations >425 milli-gravities, [Acc425]) and three sedentary behavior-related lifestyle patterns (Leisure screen time [LST], Sedentary commuting, Sedentary behavior at work). We used inverse variance weighted (IVW), weighted median and MR-Egger for the analysis of Mendelian randomization, followed by sensitivity tests with the Cochran Q test, MR-Egger intercepts analysis and MR-PRESSO. RESULTS A causal relationship was found between LST and acute pancreatitis based on IVW analysis (odds ratios [OR] = 1.38, corresponding 95% confidence intervals [CI] = 1.16-1.64, p = 0.0002) and there were no causal relationships between physical activity/sedentary behavior and chronic pancreatitis. Sensitivity analysis showed no pleiotropy and heterogeneity of the results. CONCLUSIONS Results show that reducing LST contributes to the prevention of acute pancreatitis, thereby reducing the health burden associated with it.

Abstract
The goal of obesity management is to improve health. Sustained weight loss of more than 10% overall bodyweight improves many of the complications associated with obesity (eg, prevention and control of type 2 diabetes, hypertension, fatty liver disease, and obstructive sleep apnoea), as well as quality of life. Maintenance of weight loss is the major challenge of obesity management. Like all chronic diseases, managing obesity requires a long-term, multimodal approach, taking into account each individual's treatment goals, and the benefit and risk of different therapies. In conjunction with lifestyle interventions, anti-obesity medications and bariatric surgery improve the maintenance of weight loss and associated health gains. Most available anti-obesity medications act on central appetite pathways to reduce hunger and food reward. In the past 5 years, therapeutic advances have seen the development of targeted treatments for monogenic obesities and a new generation of anti-obesity medications. These highly effective anti-obesity medications are associated with weight losses of more than 10% of overall bodyweight in more than two-thirds of clinical trial participants. Long-term data on safety, efficacy, and cardiovascular outcomes are awaited. Long-term studies have shown that bariatric surgical procedures typically lead to a durable weight loss of 25% and rapid, sustained improvements in complications of obesity, although they have not yet been compared with new-generation highly effective anti-obesity medications. Further work is required to determine optimal patient-specific treatment strategies, including combinations of lifestyle interventions, anti-obesity medications, endoscopic and bariatric surgical procedures, and to ensure equitable access to effective treatments.

Abstract
BACKGROUND: The widespread use in clinical practice of drugs with cardio- and nephroprotective properties, in particular, sodium-glucose cotransporter type 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i), is based on the results of large-scale international randomized trials. Meanwhile, there are no data demonstrating the possibility of the influence of these drugs on mortality rates in real clinical practice in Russian patients. To study this issue, a CARDIA-MOS study was conducted on a population of patients with type 2 diabetes (T2DM) in Moscow.AIM: To study the effect of SGLT2i on the total mortality of patients with T2DM in Moscow.MATERIALS AND METHODS: To assess the frequency of different outcomes, two samples of patients were formed according to predetermined criteria: 1) patients who started therapy with SGLT2i (dapagliflozin) in 2017; 2) a control group of patients corresponding to the main group in terms of key indicators: age, duration of T2DM, presence of cardiovascular diseases, use of insulin therapy, HbA1c level.RESULTS: Firstly, an analysis of the data of 499 patients who started treatment with dapagliflozin in 2017, as well as 499 patients in the control group (n = 998) was made. The baseline characteristics of the patients were generally comparable. Pre-study SBP and HbA1c were worse in the dapagliflozin group. The use of dapagliflozin was associated with a 39% reduction in the relative risk of death from all causes (RR 0.614, 95% CI 0.417–0.903, p = 0.013), led to a decrease in HbA1c levels by 0.8% (from 8.5 to 7.7%, p<0.001) for 48 months. observations. The safety profile of dapagliflozin was comparable to that of the control groupCONCLUSION: The use of dapagliflozin in the treatment of patients with T2DM can reduce overall mortality and improve glycemic control.

[PMID: 35291207 PMCID: PMC8920048 DOI: 10.1016/j.lana.2021.100111] [Citation(s) in RCA: 22] [Impact Index Per Article: 11.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/26/2021] [Revised: 10/19/2021] [Accepted: 10/21/2021] [Indexed: 12/31/2022]
Abstract
Background Among patients with type 2 diabetes, minority racial/ethnic groups have a higher burden of cardiovascular disease, chronic kidney disease, and hypoglycaemia. These groups may especially benefit from newer diabetes medication classes, but high cost may limit access. We examined the association of race/ethnicity with the initiation of newer diabetes medications (GLP-1 receptor agonists, DPP-4 inhibitors, SGLT-2 inhibitors). Methods We conducted a secondary analysis of the Look AHEAD (Action for Health in Diabetes) trial including participants with at least one study visit after April 28, 2005. Cox proportional hazards models were used to estimate the association between race/ethnicity and socioeconomic factors with time to initiation of any newer diabetes medication from April 2005 to February 2020. Models were adjusted for demographic and clinical characteristics. Findings Among 4,892 participants, 63.6%, 15.7%, 12.6%, 5.2%, and 2.9% were White, Black, Hispanic, American Indian or Alaskan Native (AI/AN), or other race/ethnicity, respectively. During a median follow-up of 8.3 years, 2,180 (45.2%) participants were initiated on newer diabetes medications. Race/ethnicity was associated with newer diabetes medication initiation (p=.019). Specifically, initiation was lower among Black (HR 0.81, 95% CI 0.70 -0.94) and AI/AN participants (HR 0.51, 95% CI 0.26-0.99). Yearly family income was inversely associated with initiation of newer diabetes medications (HR 0.78, 95% CI 0.62-0.98) comparing the lowest and highest income groups. Findings were mostly driven by GLP-1 receptor agonists. Interpretation These findings provide evidence of racial/ethnic disparities in the initiation of newer diabetes medications, independent of socioeconomic factors, which may contribute to worse health outcomes.

Relationship between Indices of Vascular Function and Presence of Overt Cardiovascular Disease among Persons with Poorly Controlled Type 2 Diabetes. J Cardiovasc Dev Dis 2021; 8:jcdd8120185. [PMID: 34940540 PMCID: PMC8704649 DOI: 10.3390/jcdd8120185] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/22/2021] [Revised: 12/12/2021] [Accepted: 12/13/2021] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
The aim of this study was to assess the factors associated with impaired vascular function in patients with poorly controlled type 2 diabetes (DM2) with and without overt cardiovascular disease (CVD). Ninety-five patients with DM2 and poor glycemic control were recruited and divided into two groups: Group 1, with known CVD (n = 38), and Group 2, without CVD (n = 57). Patients in Group 2 were further subdivided into those with short (<5 years, group 2b) and long (>5 years, group 2a) diabetes duration. Subclinical markers of atherosclerosis were assessed. Glycemic control was similar in the two groups (HbA1c: 9.2% (1.5) vs. 9.4% (1.8), p = 0.44). In Group 1, lower FMD (3.13 (2.16)% vs. 4.7 (3.4)%, p < 0.05) and higher cIMT (1.09 (0.3) mm vs. 0.96 (0.2) mm, p < 0.05) was seen compared with Group 2, whereas PWV was similar (12.1 (3.4) vs. 11.3 (3.0) m/s, p = 0.10). Patients in Group 2b had significantly lower PWV and cIMT and higher FMD compared to Group 1 (p < 0.05). Among patients with poorly controlled T2D, more pronounced vascular dysfunction was present in those with overt macrovascular disease. In patients with T2D without known CVD, vascular dysfunction was associated with disease duration. The use of vascular indices for cardiovascular risk stratification in patients with T2D requires further study.

Abstract
AIM Retrospective national sub-analysis of antidiabetic pharmacotherapy in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) and heart failure (HF) based on data reported to the National Register of Paid Health Services in the Czech Republic between 2012-2018. METHODOLOGY AND RESULTS In 2012, there were 75,022 patients with HF and DM (i.e. 42.5% of patients with HF), 6 years later 117,265 (i.e. 41.0% of HF patients in 2018). The most represented antidiabetic drug was metformin (45.6%). Of the insulins and analogues, glargine showed the largest positive trend (5.8% 2012; 14.8% 2018). Empagliflozin was the most prescribed SGLT-2 inhibitor (1.8% in 2018). A decrease in prescribing was observed for saxagliptin (0.5% 2012; 0.1% 2018) and for sulfonylurea derivates - gliclazide (13.0% 2012; 10.3% in 2018) and glimepiride (12.9% 2012; 9.0% 2018). Linagliptin was the most prescribed dipeptidyl peptidase inhibitor (0.7% 2012; 6.8% 2018). CONCLUSION In the Czech Republic, between 2012 and 2008, there was an increase in prevalence of patients with heart failure and concomitant diabetes mellitus, their proportion being similar. In correspondence with other registries, metformin was used mostly. A positive trend was observed in prescription of DDP-4 and SGLT-2 inhibitors, while there was a significant decrease in patients taking sulfonylureas.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of intensive antidiabetic therapy on vascular indices in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients. METHODS Poorly controlled T2DM patients (n = 62, mean age 64 years, T2DM duration 14 years, HbA1c ≥ 7.5%) were studied at baseline and following intensive treatment to achieve optimal glycemic control. Brachial artery flow-mediated dilation, carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity, central augmentation index, large and small (C2) artery compliance, carotid intima-media thickness (cIMT), and ankle-brachial index were assessed at baseline and follow-up. RESULTS HbA1c decreased from 8.8% (8.1, 10.1) (median, interquartile range-IQ) to 7.4% (6.9, 7.8), p < 0.001. Triglycerides and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein levels were decreased by ~ 10% and 50%, respectively (p < 0.05). Maximum cIMT and C2 increased at follow-up (0.97 ± 0.25 to 1.03 ± 0.27 mm and 3.3 (2.7, 4.2) to 4.2 (3.2, 5.4) ml/mmHg × 10, respectively, p < 0.05). In subgroup analysis, the observed changes in vascular indices were not affected by diabetes duration, presence of cardiovascular disease, or insulin treatment. CONCLUSION In patients with long-standing T2DM, short-term aggressive glycemic control was associated with an improvement of microvascular function (C2) and deterioration of carotid atherosclerosis (IMT) without any effect on the elastic properties of large arteries.

Abstract
Randomized clinical trials on the cardiovascular effects of hypoglycemic drugs on people with type 2 diabetes mellitus began more than fifty years ago. In the last decade, the emergence of new classes of hypoglycemic drugs has led to the development of randomized clinical trials to assess their cardiovascular safety. Known as Cardiovascular Outcome Trials, they have provided a lot of new information that needs to be critically appraised if the knowledge obtained is to be applicable in clinical practice. To this end, the current article first comments on the guidelines to which these trials have adhered, then reviews some concepts for improving their interpretation (such as different types of analyses, the definition of objectives and the evaluation of their results), and concludes by mentioning the new guidelines to which future trials designed to evaluate the safety of new hypoglycemic drugs should adhere.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Only few studies have shown the efficacy and safety of glucose-control strategies using the quadruple drug combination. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to investigate the usefulness of the quadruple combination therapy with oral hypoglycemic agents (OHAs) in patients with uncontrolled type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). METHODS From March 2014 to December 2018, data of patients with T2DM, who were treated with quadruple hypoglycemic medications for over 12 months in 11 hospitals in South Korea, were reviewed retrospectively. We compared glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) levels before and 12 months after quadruple treatment with OHAs. The safety, maintenance rate, and therapeutic patterns after failure of the quadruple therapy were also evaluated. RESULTS In total, 357 patients were enrolled for quadruple OHA therapy, and the baseline HbA1c level was 9.0%±1.3% (74.9±14.1 mmol/mol). After 12 months, 270 patients (75.6%) adhered to the quadruple therapy and HbA1c was significantly reduced from 8.9%±1.2% to 7.8%±1.3% (mean change, -1.1%±1.2%; P<0.001). The number of patients with HbA1c <7% increased significantly from 5 to 68 (P<0.005). In addition, lipid profiles and liver enzyme levels were also improved whereas no changes in body weight. There was no significant safety issue in patients treated with quadruple OHA therapy. CONCLUSION This study shows the therapeutic efficacy of the quadruple OHA regimen T2DM and demonstrates that it can be an option for the management of T2DM patients who cannot use insulin or reject injectable therapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors (DPP-4i) provide a unique antihyperglycemic effect by regulating incretin peptides in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients who are inadequately controlled with insulin therapy. The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of DPP-4i on leptin concentrations in subjects with T2DM. METHODS Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) with comparators were systematically searched through PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane Library. Quantitative analysis was performed with a fixed or random-effects model according to heterogeneity. Publication bias was evaluated by using the standard methods for sensitivity analysis. RESULTS Ten trials with 698 patients with T2DM were included. Pooled analysis demonstrated that DPP-4i did not significantly change leptin concentrations (1.31 ng/mL, 95 % CI - 0.48 to 3.10). DPP-4i exerted effects on modulating leptin levels compared to active comparators (0.21 ng/mL, 95 % CI - 1.37 to 1.78). Meta-analysis was powerful and stable after sensitivity analysis. CONCLUSIONS DPP-4i did not modulate leptin concentrations in T2DM and exerted no stronger effects than traditional antidiabetic agents.

Abstract
BACKGROUND As the last link in the chain of cardiovascular events, chronic heart failure (CHF) has high morbidity, high mortality, and poor prognosis. It is one of the main causes of death and disability worldwide. As a new drug for the treatment of chronic cardiovascular disease, dapagliflozin, the efficacy, and safety issues are still the focus of attention. Therefore, we conducted a meta-analysis to evaluate the efficacy and safety of dapagliflozin in the treatment of CHF. METHODS According to the search strategy, regardless of publication date or language, randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of dapagliflozin for CHF will be retrieved from 8 databases. First of all, the literature was screened according to the eligibility criteria, and use the Cochrane Collaboration's tool to assess the quality of the included literature. Then, using Rev Man 5.3 and STATA 14.2 software for traditional meta-analysis. Finally, the evaluation of the quality of the evidence and the strength of the recommendations will adopt the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development and Evaluation method. RESULTS This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of dapagliflozin for CHF, thereby providing more evidence support for clinical decision-making in CHF. CONCLUSION Our research will provide more references for the clinical medication of patients with CHF. PROTOCOL REGISTRATION NUMBER INPLASY202150046.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Until recently, most patients with diabetes worldwide have been diagnosed when symptomatic and have high cardiovascular risk, meaning most should be prescribed cardiovascular preventive medications. However, in New Zealand, a world-first national programme led to approximately 90% of eligible adults being screened for diabetes by 2016, up from 50% in 2012, identifying many asymptomatic patients with recent-onset diabetes. We hypothesised that cardiovascular risk prediction equations derived before widespread screening would now significantly overestimate risk in screen-detected patients. METHODS New Zealanders aged 30-74 years with type 2 diabetes and without known cardiovascular disease, heart failure, or substantial renal impairment were identified from the 400 000-person PREDICT primary care cohort study between Oct 27, 2004, and Dec 30, 2016, covering the period before and after widespread screening. Sex-specific equations estimating 5-year risk of cardiovascular disease were developed using Cox regression models, with 18 prespecified predictors, including diabetes-related and renal function measures. Equation performance was compared with an equivalent equation derived in the New Zealand Diabetes Cohort Study (NZDCS), which recruited between 2000 and 2006, before widespread screening. FINDINGS 46 652 participants were included in the PREDICT-1° Diabetes subcohort, of whom 4114 experienced first cardiovascular events during follow-up (median 5·2 years, IQR 3·3-7·4). 14 829 (31·8%) were not taking oral hypoglycaemic medications or insulin at baseline. Median 5-year cardiovascular risk estimated by the new equations was 4·0% (IQR 2·3-6·8) in women and 7·1% (4·5-11·2) in men. The older NZDCS equation overestimated median cardiovascular risk by three times in women (median 14·2% [9·7-20·0]) and two times in men (17·1% [4·5-20·0]). Model and discrimination performance measures for PREDICT-1° Diabetse equations were also significantly better than for the NZDCS equation (eg, for women: R2=32% [95% CI 29-34], Harrell's C=0·73 [0·72-0·74], Royston's D=1·410 [1·330-1·490] vs R2=24% [21-26], C=0·69 [0·67-0·70], and D=1·147 [1·107-1·187]). INTERPRETATION International treatment guidelines still consider most people with diabetes to be at high cardiovascular risk; however, we show that recent widespread diabetes screening has radically changed the cardiovascular risk profile of people with diabetes in New Zealand. Many of these patients have normal renal function, are not dispensed glucose-lowering medications, and have low cardiovascular risk. These findings have clear international implications as increased diabetes screening is inevitable due to increasing obesity, simpler screening tests, and the introduction of new-generation glucose-lowering medications that prevent cardiovascular events. Cardiovascular risk prediction equations derived from contemporary diabetes populations, with multiple diabetes-related and renal function predictors, will be required to better differentiate between low-risk and high-risk patients in this increasingly heterogeneous population and to inform appropriate non-pharmacological management and cost-effective targeting of expensive new medications.

Abstract
Randomized clinical trials on the cardiovascular effects of hypoglycemic drugs on people with type2 diabetes mellitus began more than fifty years ago. In the last decade, the emergence of new classes of hypoglycemic drugs has led to the development of randomized clinical trials to assess their cardiovascular safety. Known as Cardiovascular Outcome Trials, they have provided a lot of new information that needs to be critically appraised if the knowledge obtained is to be applicable in clinical practice. To this end, the current article first comments on the guidelines to which these trials have adhered, then reviews some concepts for improving their interpretation (such as different types of analyses, the definition of objectives and the evaluation of their results), and concludes by mentioning the new guidelines to which future trials designed to evaluate the safety of new hypoglycemic drugs should adhere.

Effects of liraglutide on the metabolism of triglyceride-rich lipoproteins in type 2 diabetes. Diabetes Obes Metab 2021; 23:1191-1201.

Abstract
AIM To elucidate the impact of liraglutide on the kinetics of apolipoprotein (apo)B48- and apoB100-containing triglyceride-rich lipoproteins in subjects with type 2 diabetes (T2D) after a single fat-rich meal. MATERIALS AND METHODS Subjects with T2D were included in a study to investigate postprandial apoB48 and apoB100 metabolism before and after 16 weeks on l.8 mg/day liraglutide (n = 14) or placebo (n = 4). Stable isotope tracer and compartmental modelling techniques were used to determine the impact of liraglutide on chylomicron and very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) production and clearance after a single fat-rich meal. RESULTS Liraglutide reduced apoB48 synthesis in chylomicrons by 60% (p < .0001) and increased the triglyceride/apoB48 ratio (i.e. the size) of chylomicrons (p < .001). Direct clearance of chylomicrons, a quantitatively significant pathway pretreatment, decreased by 90% on liraglutide (p < .001). Liraglutide also reduced VLDL1 -triglyceride secretion (p = .017) in parallel with reduced liver fat. Chylomicron-apoB48 production and particle size were related to insulin sensitivity (p = .015 and p < .001, respectively), but these associations were perturbed by liraglutide. CONCLUSIONS In a physiologically relevant setting that mirrored regular feeding in subjects with T2D, liraglutide promoted potentially beneficial changes on postprandial apoB48 metabolism. Using our data in an integrated metabolic model, we describe how the action of liraglutide in T2D on chylomicron and VLDL kinetics could lead to decreased generation of remnant lipoproteins.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus is a major healthcare problem. It is not only characterized by hyperglycemia and chronic complications, but in longer lasting diabetes and a longer living population, it is also associated with accelerated arterial ageing, which importantly contributes to cardiovascular complications. The accelerated arterial ageing in patients with diabetes should be considered separately from arterial ageing in patients without diabetes. Basic and clinical research have allowed better insight into the mechanisms of arterial ageing. In a simplified mechanistic way, it could be considered that the three tightly connected cornerstone characteristics of arterial ageing in patients with diabetes are: phenotypic presentation as endothelial dysfunction and arterial stiffness, and the underlying basic ageing-facilitating mechanism represented as the impaired expression of genetic longevity pathways. Currently, specific drugs for preventing/treating arterial ageing are not available. Therefore, we aimed to review the capacity of available drugs, particularly antidiabetic drugs, to interfere with the arterial ageing process. In the near future, these characteristics could help to guide therapy in patients with diabetes. Overall, it appears that arterial ageing could become a new target in diabetes. The expanding knowledge regarding the capability of antidiabetic drugs and other available drugs to inhibit/delay arterial aging is therefore essential.

J Diabetes Complications 2021; 35:107813.

Abstract
AIM To explore reasons behind treatment inertia in current approaches to early cardiorenal risk management in type 2 diabetes (T2D). METHODS A global, web-based, quantitative panel survey of primary care physicians (PCPs) and primary care diabetes specialists treating people living with T2D. The questions covered current management of T2D, particularly the use of sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors, glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists, and dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors as second-/third-line therapies. RESULTS Of 1677 respondents from 18 countries who completed the survey, 73.4% were responsible for second-/third-line therapy initiation. Two thirds had modified treatment decisions based on recent cardiovascular outcomes trials (CVOTs). Respondents cited restricted access to therapies and limits on regular appointments as the greatest barriers to second-/third-line therapy prescription. Although 81.6% agreed that early intensification to second-/third-line therapies is associated with clinical benefits, 46.1% of respondents still reserve these for later lines of therapy, and 23.8% would not consider changing therapeutic approach in patients with well-controlled T2D but increasing cardiovascular risk. CONCLUSIONS Substantial barriers still prevent optimization of primary setting T2D patient care. Education programs which enable PCPs to translate CVOT evidence into clinical benefits for patients with T2D could address many of the remaining knowledge gaps identified.

Abstract
Elevated reactive oxygen species (ROS) in type 2 diabetes cause cellular damage in many organs. Recently, the new class of glucose-lowering agents, SGLT-2 inhibitors, have been shown to reduce the risk of developing diabetic complications; however, the mechanisms of such beneficial effect are largely unknown. Here we aimed to investigate the effects of dapagliflozin on cell proliferation and cell death under oxidative stress conditions and explore its underlying mechanisms. Human proximal tubular cells (HK-2) were used. Cell growth and death were monitored by cell counting, water-soluble tetrazolium-1 (WST-1) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) assays, and flow cytometry. The cytosolic and mitochondrial (ROS) production was measured using fluorescent probes (H2DCFDA and MitoSOX) under normal and oxidative stress conditions mimicked by addition of H2O2. Intracellular Ca2+ dynamics was monitored by FlexStation 3 using cell-permeable Ca2+ dye Fura-PE3/AM. Dapagliflozin (0.1–10 μM) had no effect on HK-2 cell proliferation under normal conditions, but an inhibitory effect was seen at an extreme high concentration (100 μM). However, dapagliflozin at 0.1 to 5 μM showed remarkable protective effects against H2O2-induced cell injury via increasing the viable cell number at phase G0/G1. The elevated cytosolic and mitochondrial ROS under oxidative stress was significantly decreased by dapagliflozin. Dapagliflozin increased the basal intracellular [Ca2+]i in proximal tubular cells, but did not affect calcium release from endoplasmic reticulum and store-operated Ca2+ entry. The H2O2-sensitive TRPM2 channel seemed to be involved in the Ca2+ dynamics regulated by dapagliflozin. However, dapagliflozin had no direct effects on ORAI1, ORAI3, TRPC4 and TRPC5 channels. Our results suggest that dapagliflozin shows anti-oxidative properties by reducing cytosolic and mitochondrial ROS production and altering Ca2+ dynamics, and thus exerts its protective effects against cell damage under oxidative stress environment.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is an independent risk factor for atrial fibrillation (AF), which is the most common sustained arrhythmia and is associated with substantial morbidity and mortality. Advanced glycation end product and its receptor activation, cardiac energy dysmetabolism, structural and electrical remodeling, and autonomic dysfunction are implicated in AF pathophysiology in diabetic hearts. Antidiabetic drugs have been demonstrated to possess therapeutic potential for AF. However, clinical investigations of AF in patients with DM have been scant and inconclusive. This article provides a comprehensive review of research findings on the association between DM and AF and critically analyzes the effect of different pharmacological classes of antidiabetic drugs on AF.

SGLT-2 inhibitors may be targeting higher risk patients with diabetes possibly justifying higher cost: Single center repeated cross-sectional analysis. J Diabetes Complications 2021; 35:107761. [PMID: 33234402 DOI: 10.1016/j.jdiacomp.2020.107761] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/09/2020] [Revised: 09/23/2020] [Accepted: 09/23/2020] [Indexed: 11/28/2022]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION We studied the use of all hypoglycemic agents in periods before and after introduction of SGLT-2 inhibitors in the USA by repeated cross sectional analysis to initially assess improvement in HbA1c control among patients with type 2 diabetes and hypertension. We sought to identify changes in glucose management related to the availability of the SGLT-2 inhibiting agents. We hypothesized that patients transitioned to SGLT-2 inhibitor-based therapy represented a higher risk group that derived benefits in terms of Hba1c control. METHODS Deidentified records of patients seen at least twice during the relevant time periods at Joslin Clinic between January 1, 2010 and December 31, 2012 and/or between January 1, 2014 and December 31, 2016 were examined. Records required all of the following: demographic information of gender, age, height, weight, BMI, HbA1c, eGFR, blood pressure, smoking status and completed medication lists. RESULTS 10,191 patients met criteria for analysis, 7769 seen in period 1 and 6576 in period 2. 4625 patients were seen in both periods. The group of patients defined by SGLT-2 use had significantly higher BMI and HbA1c. Notable shifts in medication use were observed as SGLT-2 use increased from none to 14%. Increased use (all p < 0.001) of GLP-1 agents (16.0 to 23.8%), insulin (56.1 to 60.5%) and statins (78.4 to 81.5%) and statistically significant decreases (all p < 0.001) in use of biguanides (69.5 to 66.3%) and sulfonylurea compounds (44.7 to 39.4%), thiazolidinediones (13.6 to 3.4%) and diuretics (32.4 to 28.9%) were observed. Statistically significant decreases (all p < 0.001) of HbA1c (7.9 to 7.8%), BMI (32.5 to 32.1), eGFR (80.6 to 77.5 ml/min) and increased systolic blood pressure (130 to 132 mm Hg) were documented. CONCLUSIONS In the absence of glycemia treatment resistance or clinical heart failure SGLT-2 inhibitor use may not be cost effective. Enthusiasm for use of SGLT-2 inhibition should be based upon long-term cardiorenal protection rather than short-term glycemia control given limited impact upon HbA1c levels in our tertiary care type 2 diabetes population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Animal studies suggested that vildagliptin might exert a beneficial effect on cognitive function. The present study evaluated whether the use of vildagliptin in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus might affect dementia risk. METHODS The database of Taiwan's National Health Insurance was used to enroll an unmatched cohort and a propensity score-matched-pair cohort of ever and never users of vildagliptin from patients with newly diagnosed diabetes mellitus during 2002-2014. The patients should be alive on January 1, 2015 and were followed up for dementia diagnosis until December 31, 2016. Unadjusted and multivariate-adjusted hazard ratios (HR) and their 95% confidence intervals (CI) were estimated for vildagliptin ever versus never users, for cumulative duration and cumulative dose of vildagliptin therapy categorized into tertiles versus never users, and for cumulative duration and cumulative dose treated as continuous variables. RESULTS There were 355610 never users and 43196 ever users in the unmatched cohort and 40489 never users and 40489 ever users in the matched cohort. In the unmatched cohort, unadjusted HR (95% CI) was 0.929 (0.683-1.264) and the multivariate-adjusted HR (95% CI) was 0.922 (0.620-1.372). In the matched cohort, the unadjusted HR (95% CI) was 0.930 (0.616-1.402) and the multivariate-adjusted HR (95% CI) was 0.825 (0.498-1.367). None of the analyses conducted for cumulative duration and cumulative dose was significant, either being treated as tertile cutoffs or as continuous variables, in either the unmatched cohort or the matched cohort. CONCLUSIONS This study showed a neutral effect of vildagliptin on dementia risk.

Abstract
AIMS To estimate the prevalence of chronic kidney disease (CKD) in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) in Finnish primary healthcare, and to evaluate the screening for CKD and the proportions of patients receiving antihyperglycemic and cardiovascular preventive medication. MATERIAL AND METHODS T2D patients treated at the Rovaniemi Health Center, Finland during the years 2015-2019. Data included patient characteristics, blood pressure, HbA1c, lipid levels, kidney function and albuminuria, and medications prescribed. CKD was defined as estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) <60 ml/min/1.72 m2 and/or albuminuria. RESULTS The study population comprised of 5112 T2D patients with a mean (SD) age of 66.7 (13.0) years. Of these, 60.2% were screened for CKD with both eGFR and albuminuria, and 30.1% of these patients had CKD. The prevalence of moderately increased and severely increased albuminuria was 19.6% and 3.2%, respectively. A total of 57.0% of the study population received angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors or angiotensin receptor blockers (ARB). CONCLUSIONS Screening for CKD with both recommended measures (eGFR and albuminuria) was insufficiently performed among this T2D population. Additionally, just over half of the study population had been prescribed ACE inhibitors or ARB. These results suggest an incongruity between the gold standard of diabetes care and real-world clinical practice.

Abstract
ZusammenfassungTyp-2-Diabetes(T2 D)-Patienten weisen im Vergleich zur Normalbevölkerung eine erhöhte Sterblichkeit auf. Ein Teil der Patienten ist mit dem Ziel einer besseren Versorgung in das nationale „Disease-Management-Programm Diabetes“ (DMP) Typ-2-Diabetes eingeschlossen. In dieser Arbeit werden Mortalitätsdaten von T2D-Patienten aus der Routineversorgung mit Mortalitätsdaten der Allgemeinbevölkerung und von T2D-Patienten aus verschiedenen Studienkollektiven verglichen. Die Sterblichkeit der deutschen T2D-Patienten insgesamt ist etwa 3,1-fach höher als in der Allgemeinbevölkerung. Die Sterblichkeit von deutschen T2D-Patienten innerhalb des DMP ist 2,4-fach höher. Inwieweit sich dieser Mortalitätsunterschied durch einen Selektionsbias oder durch die Teilnahme am DMP selbst erklären lässt, ist mit den verfügbaren Daten nicht eindeutig zu beantworten. Die Tatsache aber, dass im Vergleich dazu das Sterblichkeitsrisiko innerhalb kontrollierter T2D-Interventionsstudien trotz zusätzlicher kardiovaskulärer Komorbidität nochmals niedriger ist, gibt einen wichtigen Hinweis darauf, dass die kardiovaskuläre Pathophysiologie im bisherigen DMP nicht ausreichend berücksichtigt wird und dieser Tatbestand ein wichtiges Verbesserungspotenzial für eine Optimierung des DMP darstellt.

Abstract
Clinical decision-making that best serves the interests of our patients requires the synthesis of evidence-based medicine, sound clinical judgment and guidelines. However, a relatively low percentage of clinical guidelines are based on well-designed prospective randomized clinical trials. Thus the foundation on which good clinical outcomes can be reasonably expected should be based on i) data derived from the most applicable and highest quality clinical studies available, and ii) 'tried and tested' clinical maxims acquired through experience that are, in turn, those ideas that are in keeping with a reasonable body of medical opinion. It follows that poor decision-making and unfavorable clinical outcomes can be linked to inappropriate or inferior quality evidence, or incorrectly conceived or implemented clinical judgment. Here we review selected areas of recent controversy in clinical cardiology, highlighting the critical role of evidence-based medicine when making informed clinical decisions to help avoid harm in our patients.

Abstract
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) comprises fatty liver (steatosis), non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) and fibrosis/cirrhosis and may lead to end-stage liver failure or hepatocellular carcinoma. NAFLD is tightly associated with the most frequent metabolic disorders, such as obesity, metabolic syndrome, and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Both multisystem diseases share several common mechanisms. Alterations of tissue communications include excessive lipid and later cytokine release by dysfunctional adipose tissue, intestinal dysbiosis and ectopic fat deposition in skeletal muscle. On the hepatocellular level, this leads to insulin resistance due to abnormal lipid handling and mitochondrial function. Over time, cellular oxidative stress and activation of inflammatory pathways, again supported by multiorgan crosstalk, determine NAFLD progression. Recent studies show that particularly the severe insulin resistant diabetes (SIRD) subgroup (cluster) associates with NAFLD and its accelerated progression and increases the risk of diabetes-related cardiovascular and kidney diseases, underpinning the critical role of insulin resistance. Consequently, lifestyle modification and certain drug classes used to treat T2DM have demonstrated effectiveness for treating NAFLD, but also some novel therapeutic concepts may be beneficial for both NAFLD and T2DM. This review addresses the bidirectional relationship between mechanisms underlying T2DM and NAFLD, the relevance of novel biomarkers for improving the diagnostic modalities and the identification of subgroups at specific risk of disease progression. Also, the role of metabolism-related drugs in NAFLD is discussed in light of the recent clinical trials. Finally, this review highlights some challenges to be addressed by future studies on NAFLD in the context of T2DM.

Abstract
Currently, South Asia accounts for a quarter of the world population, yet it already claims ≈60% of the global burden of heart disease. Besides the epidemics of type 2 diabetes mellitus and coronary heart disease already faced by South Asian countries, recent studies suggest that South Asians may also be at an increased risk of heart failure (HF), and that it presents at earlier ages than in most other racial/ethnic groups. Although a frequently underrecognized threat, an eventual HF epidemic in the densely populated South Asian nations could have dramatic health, social and economic consequences, and urgent interventions are needed to flatten the curve of HF in South Asia. In this review, we discuss recent studies portraying these trends, and describe the mechanisms that may explain an increased risk of premature HF in South Asians compared with other groups, with a special focus on highly relevant features in South Asian populations including premature coronary heart disease, early type 2 diabetes mellitus, ubiquitous abdominal obesity, exposure to the world's highest levels of air pollution, highly prevalent pretransition forms of HF such as rheumatic heart disease, and underdevelopment of healthcare systems. Other rising lifestyle-related risk factors such as use of tobacco products, hypertension, and general obesity are also discussed. We evaluate the prognosis of HF in South Asian countries and the implications of an anticipated HF epidemic. Finally, we discuss proposed interventions aimed at curbing these adverse trends, management approaches that can improve the prognosis of prevalent HF in South Asian countries, and research gaps in this important field.

Abstract
Metabolic diseases and diabetes represent an increasing global challenge for human health care. As associated with a strongly elevated risk of developing atherosclerosis, kidney failure and death from myocardial infarction or stroke, the treatment of diabetes requires a more effective approach than lowering blood glucose levels. This review summarizes the evidence for the cardioprotective benefits induced by antidiabetic agents, including sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitor (SGLT2i) and glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP1-RA), along with sometimes conversely discussed effects of dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor (DPP4i) and metformin in patients with high cardiovascular risk with or without type 2 diabetes. Moreover, the proposed mechanisms of the different drugs are described based on the results of preclinical studies. Recent cardiovascular outcome trials unexpectedly confirmed a beneficial effect of GLP-1RA and SGLT2i in type 2 diabetes patients with high cardiovascular risk and with standard care, which was independent of glycaemic control. These results triggered a plethora of studies to clarify the underlying mechanisms and the relevance of these effects. Taken together, the available data strongly highlight the potential of repurposing the original antidiabetics GLP1-RA and SGLT2i to improve cardiovascular outcome even in non-diabetic patients with cardiovascular diseases.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors (DPP-4is), which belong to the class of incretin-based medications, are recommended as second or third-line therapies in guidelines for the management of type 2 diabetes mellitus. They have a favorable drug tolerability and safety profile compared to other glucose-lowering agents. OBJECTIVE This review discusses data concerning the use of DPP-4is and their cardiovascular profile, and gives an updated comparison with the other oral glucose-lowering medications with regards to safety and efficacy. Currently available original studies, abstracts, reviews articles, systematic reviews and meta-analyses were included in the review. DISCUSSION DPP4is are moderately efficient in decreasing the HbA1c by an average of 0.5% as monotherapy, and 1.0% in combination therapy with other drugs. They have a good tolerability and safety profile compared to other glucose-lowering drugs. However, there are possible risks pertaining to acute pancreatitis and pancreatic cancer. CONCLUSION Cardiovascular outcome trials thus far have proven the cardiovascular safety for ischemic events in patients treated with sitagliptin, saxagliptin, alogliptin, linagliptin and vildagliptin. Data showing increased rate of hospitalisation in the case of saxagliptin did not seem to be a class effect.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Cardiovascular (CV) outcomes trial (CVOT) results have led to changes in indications for some glucose-lowering agents, with recommendations based on the presence of comorbidities. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to understand internal medicine (IM) and family medicine (FM) physicians' knowledge of CVOTs and beliefs about type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) medications, excluding insulin, for CV disease risk reduction. METHODS WebMD, LLC, fielded a 23-item online survey from September 18 to 20, 2018, to 47,534 Medscape members (US IM and FM physicians) who were invited to participate via e-mail (quota = 500). RESULTS Of the 702 physicians who responded, 503 were eligible and completed the survey. Overall, 39% of respondents were not familiar with the 2018 American Diabetes Association treatment recommendations for those with T2DM and atherosclerotic CV disease. Respondents reported they were most familiar with TECOS (42%), LEADER (39%), EMPA-REG OUTCOME (33%), and CANVAS (30%). Many respondents did not know which CVOT showed superiority for major adverse CV events (26%) or CV mortality (31%). When provided with a list of seven treatment priorities, 33% of respondents ranked using T2DM medications with CV benefits as least important. CONCLUSIONS Findings from this 2018 survey suggest that there are knowledge gaps among IM and FM physicians regarding the results from CVOTs, with implications for the treatment of patients with T2DM and CV disease.

Abstract
The aim of this narrative review is to update the current knowledge on the differential choice of circulating cardiac biomarkers in patients with prediabetes and established type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). There are numerous circulating biomarkers with unconfirmed abilities to predict clinical outcomes in pre-DM and DM individuals; the prognostication ability of the cardiac biomarkers reported here has been established, and they are still being studied. The conventional cardiac biomarkers, such as natriuretic peptides (NPs), soluble suppressor tumorigenisity-2, high-sensitivity circulating cardiac troponins and galectin-3, were useful to ascertain cardiovascular (CV) risk. Each cardiac biomarker has its strengths and weaknesses that affect the price of usage, specificity, sensitivity, predictive value and superiority in face-to-face comparisons. Additionally, there have been confusing reports regarding their abilities to be predictably relevant among patients without known CV disease. The large spectrum of promising cardiac biomarkers (growth/differential factor-15, heart-type fatty acid-binding protein, cardiotrophin-1, carboxy-terminal telopeptide of collagen type 1, apelin and non-coding RNAs) is discussed in the context of predicting CV diseases and events in patients with known prediabetes and T2DM. Various reasons have been critically discussed related to the variable findings regarding biomarker-based prediction of CV risk among patients with metabolic disease. It was found that NPs and hs-cTnT are still the most important tools that have an affordable price as well as high sensitivity and specificity to predict clinical outcomes among patients with pre-DM and DM in routine clinical practice, but other circulating biomarkers need to be carefully investigated in large trials in the future.

Abstract
BACKGROUND High blood glucose level has a linear relationship with all-cause mortality. However, the influence of glycemic abnormality on mortality differs by age group. We aimed to analyze all-cause mortality according to glycemic status, age groups, and comorbidities using a national health database. METHODS The 6,330,369 participants who underwent Korean National Health Screening in 2009 were followed up until 2016, with a median follow-up of 7.3 years. All-cause mortality rates were analyzed according to glycemic status (normoglycemia, impaired fasting glucose [IFG], newly diagnosed diabetes, diabetes duration <5 years, diabetes duration ≥5 years), age groups (20-39, 40-65, and ≥65 years), and comorbidities using the Korean National Health Insurance System database. RESULTS At baseline, 712,901 (11.3%) subjects had diabetes. Compared with subjects without diabetes, those with diabetes at baseline showed increased mortality risk after adjustment for multiple risk factors (hazard ratio [HR] 1.613; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.598,1.629), and those with IFG showed a significantly increased mortality risk compared with normoglycemic subjects (HR 1.053; 95% CI 1.042,1.064). Mortality risk associated with glycemic status decreased gradually from younger to older age groups and was consistently higher in those with diabetes with coronary heart disease, ischemic stroke or decreased renal function than those without comorbidities. CONCLUSION Compared with normoglycemic subjects, subjects with diabetes and IFG had an increased mortality risk and the mortality risk was higher in the younger age group than in the older age group. The presence of diabetes and comorbid diseases synergistically increased mortality risk.

Abstract
Individuals with idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) display reduced oral glucose tolerance. This may involve defects in pancreatic function or insulin sensitivity but this hypothesis has not been tested; moreover, fasting nutrient metabolism remains poorly described in PAH. Thus, we aimed to characterise fasting nutrient metabolism and investigated the metabolic response to hyperglycaemia in PAH.12 participants (six PAH, six controls) were administered a hyperglycaemic clamp, while 52 (21 PAH, 31 controls) underwent plasma metabolomic analysis. Glucose, insulin, C-peptide, free fatty acids and acylcarnitines were assessed from the clamp. Plasma metabolomics was conducted on fasting plasma samples.The clamp verified a reduced insulin response to hyperglycaemia in PAH (-53% versus control), but with similar pancreatic insulin secretion. Skeletal muscle insulin sensitivity was unexpectedly greater in PAH. Hepatic insulin extraction was elevated in PAH (+11% versus control). Plasma metabolomics identified 862 metabolites: 213 elevated, 145 reduced in PAH (p<0.05). In both clamp and metabolomic cohorts, lipid oxidation and ketones were elevated in PAH. Insulin sensitivity, fatty acids, acylcarnitines and ketones correlated with PAH severity, while hepatic extraction and fatty acid:ketone ratio correlated with longer six-min walk distance.Poor glucose control in PAH could not be explained by pancreatic β-cell function or skeletal muscle insulin sensitivity. Instead, elevated hepatic insulin extraction emerged as an underlying factor. In agreement, nutrient metabolism in PAH favours lipid and ketone metabolism at the expense of glucose control. Future research should investigate the therapeutic potential of reinforcing lipid and ketone metabolism on clinical outcomes in PAH.

Abstract
Over the past 66 years, our knowledge of the role of the endothelium in the regulation of cardiovascular function and dysfunction has advanced from the assumption that it is a single layer of cells that serves as a barrier between the blood stream and vascular smooth muscle to an understanding of its role as an essential endocrine-like organ. In terms of historical contributions, we pay particular credit to (1) the Canadian scientist Dr. Rudolf Altschul who, based on pathological changes in the appearance of the endothelium, advanced the argument in 1954 that "one is only as old as one's endothelium" and (2) the American scientist Dr. Robert Furchgott, a 1998 Nobel Prize winner in Physiology or Medicine, who identified the importance of the endothelium in the regulation of blood flow. This review provides a brief history of how our knowledge of endothelial function has advanced and now recognize that the endothelium produces a plethora of signaling molecules possessing paracrine, autocrine, and, arguably, systemic hormone functions. In addition, the endothelium is a therapeutic target for the anti-diabetic drugs metformin, glucagon-like peptide I (GLP-1) receptor agonists, and inhibitors of the sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) that offset the vascular disease associated with diabetes.

Abstract
Treatment options for type 2 diabetes have expanded. While metformin remains the first line treatment in most cases, choices for second line treatment now extend beyond sulfonylureas and include the sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors, glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP1) receptor agonists, and dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP4) inhibitors. SGLT2 inhibitors are recommended for people with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, heart failure or kidney disease. Diabetic ketoacidosis is an uncommon but important side effect; its occurrence can be minimised with appropriate patient education and management, especially during perioperative periods and times of illness. GLP1 receptor agonists are recommended for people with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. Gastrointestinal side effects are common but are less prominent with the longer acting agents and can be minimised with slow titration of the shorter acting agents. DPP4 inhibitors are generally well tolerated, but alogliptin and saxagliptin should be used with caution in people with risk factors for heart failure. To optimise the management of type 2 diabetes, clinicians need to be aware of the pharmacological characteristics of each class of blood glucose-lowering medications and of the effect on cardiovascular health and renal function, balanced by potential adverse effects. Medications that have cardiovascular or renal benefits should be prescribed for patients with these comorbidities, and this is reflected in recent international guidelines.

Abstract
The management of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) essentially consists in controlling hyperglycaemia, together with other vascular risk factors, in order to reduce the incidence and severity of diabetic complications. Whereas glucose control using classical glucose-lowering agents (except perhaps metformin) largely fails to reduce cardiovascular disease (CVD), two new pharmacological classes, glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) and sodium-glucose cotransporter type 2 inhibitors (SGLT2is), have proven their ability to reduce major cardiovascular events in patients with established CVD. Furthermore, SGLT2is reduced the risk of hospitalisation for heart failure and the progression of renal disease. According to the 2018 ADA-EASD consensus report, the choice of a second agent to be added to metformin should now be driven by the presence or not of atherosclerotic CVD, heart failure or renal disease, all conditions that should promote the use of a SGLT2i or a GLP-1 RA with proven efficacy. Thus endocrinologists have to face a new paradigm in the management of T2DM, with a shift from a primary objective of glucose control without inducing hypoglycaemia and weight gain to a goal of cardiovascular and renal protection, largely independent of glucose control. Of note, however, the latter remains crucial to reduce the risk of microangiopathy.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes mellitus and congestive heart failure are highly prevalent diseases with significant morbidity and mortality. These 2 diseases often occur concurrently because of shared risk factors such as coronary artery disease, and also because type 2 diabetes mellitus has direct cardiotoxic effects. Type 2 diabetes mellitus likely has a causative role in the development and prognosis of patients with heart failure. Optimal prevention and treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus and heart failure likely involves identifying and treating their shared pathophysiologic features. Novel drug therapies, such as sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors, offer an exciting potential to better understand the relationship between type 2 diabetes mellitus and heart failure, and may prove to have beneficial effects on cardiovascular outcomes in patients affected by these diseases.

Abstract
Although intensively expressed within intestine, the precise roles of intestinal dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPPIV) in numerous pathologies remain incompletely understood. Here, we first reported a nonsystemic intestine-targeted (NSIT) DPPIV inhibitor with β-homophenylalanine scaffold, compound 7, which selectively inhibited the intestinal rather than plasmatic DPPIV at an oral dosage as high as 30 mg/kg. We expect that compound 7 could serve as a qualified tissue-selective tool to determine undetected physiological or pathological roles of intestinal DPPIV.

Abstract
Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is one of the most perilous side effects of diabetes mellitus type 1 and type 2 (T1DM and T2DM).). It is known that sodium/glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT 2i) and glucagone like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) have renoprotective effects, but the molecular mechanisms are still unknown. In clinical trials GLP-1 analogs exerted important impact on renal composite outcomes, primarily on macroalbuminuria, possibly through suppression of inflammation-related pathways, however enhancement of natriuresis and diuresis is also one of possible mechanisms of nephroprotection. Dapagliflozin, canagliflozin, and empagliflozin are SGLT2i drugs, useful in reducing hyperglycemia and in their potential renoprotective mechanisms, which include blood pressure control, body weight loss, intraglomerular pressure reduction, and a decrease in urinary proximal tubular injury biomarkers. In this review we have discussed the potential synergistic and/or additive effects of GLP 1 RA and SGLT2 inhibitors on the primary onset and progression of kidney disease, and the potential implications on current guidelines of diabetes type 2 management.

Abstract
After an acute coronary syndrome (ACS), patients with diabetes remain at high risk for additional cardiovascular events despite use of current therapies. Bromodomain and extra-terminal (BET) proteins are epigenetic modulators of inflammation, thrombogenesis, and lipoprotein metabolism implicated in atherothrombosis. The BETonMACE trial tests the hypothesis that treatment with apabetalone, a selective BET protein inhibitor, will improve cardiovascular outcomes in patients with diabetes after an ACS. DESIGN: Patients (n = 2425) with ACS in the preceding 7 to 90 days, with type 2 diabetes and low HDL cholesterol (≤40 mg/dl for men, ≤45 mg/dl for women), receiving intensive or maximum-tolerated therapy with atorvastatin or rosuvastatin, were assigned in double-blind fashion to receive apabetalone 100 mg orally twice daily or matching placebo. Baseline characteristics include female sex (25%), myocardial infarction as index ACS event (74%), coronary revascularization for index ACS (80%), treatment with dual anti-platelet therapy (87%) and renin-angiotensin system inhibitors (91%), median LDL cholesterol 65 mg per deciliter, and median HbA1c 7.3%. The primary efficacy measure is time to first occurrence of cardiovascular death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, or stroke. Assumptions include a primary event rate of 7% per annum in the placebo group and median follow-up of 1.5 years. Patients will be followed until at least 250 primary endpoint events have occurred, providing 80% power to detect a 30% reduction in the primary endpoint with apabetalone. SUMMARY: BETonMACE will determine whether the addition of the selective BET protein inhibitor apabetalone to contemporary standard of care for ACS reduces cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in patients with type 2 diabetes. Results are expected in 2019.
