Glucose lowering drug or strategy dependent impact of weight reduction on the prevention of CVD outcomes in Type 2 diabetes: a systematic review of CVOTs. Diabetes Res Clin Pract 2024; 216:111816. [PMID: 39147102 DOI: 10.1016/j.diabres.2024.111816] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/30/2024] [Revised: 08/05/2024] [Accepted: 08/06/2024] [Indexed: 08/17/2024]
Abstract
AIMS This systematic review was aimed to assess the association between magnitude of body weight loss (BWL) in type 2 diabetes (T2D) patients and cardiovascular (CV) risk in CV outcome trials (CVOTs). METHODS We searched electronic databases (PubMed, Cochrane and Scopus) for available CVOTs, observational cohort studies or post hoc analyses of clinical trials of adult T2D patients investigated the association of BWL with CV outcomes and/or all-cause mortality. RESULTS 19 RCTs of novel glucose-lowering drugs (GLP-1RA, DPP-4i and SGLT2i) and 6 RCT or observational trial of different strategies (intensive treatment or standard care) were included (379.904 T2D patients). Higher BWL during GLP-1RA treatment, in comaprison to lower BWL, was associated with higher decrease in risk of MACE, while DPP-4i had not that effect. With SGLT2i the higher decrease in risk of MACE was associated with lower BWL. In contrast, in other different strategies, higher BWL lead to increase in risk for MACE and all-cause mortality. CONCLUSIONS In CVOTs, treatment of T2D patients resulted in BWL, which correlated with reduction in risk for CV outcomes, particularly with GLP-1 RAs. However, interventional non-CVOTs are warning that in the absence of structured behavioral intervention and relevant medication, the large BWL might be harmful for CV outcomes.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes (T2D) and lower-extremity peripheral artery disease (PAD) are growing global health problems associated with considerable cardiovascular (CV) and limb-related morbidity and mortality, poor quality of life and high healthcare resource use and costs. Diabetes is a well-known risk factor for PAD, and the occurrence of PAD in people with T2D further increases the risk of long-term complications. As the available evidence is primarily focused on the overall PAD population, we undertook a systematic review to describe the burden of comorbid PAD in people with T2D. The MEDLINE, Embase and Cochrane Library databases were searched for studies including people with T2D and comorbid PAD published from 2012 to November 2021, with no restriction on PAD definition, study design or country. Hand searching of conference proceedings, reference lists of included publications and relevant identified reviews and global burden of disease reports complemented the searches. We identified 86 eligible studies, mostly observational and conducted in Asia and Europe, presenting data on the epidemiology (n = 62) and on the clinical (n = 29), humanistic (n = 12) and economic burden (n = 12) of PAD in people with T2D. The most common definition of PAD relied on ankle-brachial index values ≤ 0.9 (alone or with other parameters). Incidence and prevalence varied substantially across studies; nonetheless, four large multinational randomised controlled trials found that 12.5%-22% of people with T2D had comorbid PAD. The presence of PAD in people with T2D was a major cause of lower-limb and CV complications and of all-cause and CV mortality. Overall, PAD was associated with poor quality of life, and with substantial healthcare resource use and costs. To our knowledge, this systematic review provides the most comprehensive overview of the evidence on the burden of PAD in people with T2D to date. In this population, there is an urgent unmet need for disease-modifying agents to improve outcomes.

Abstract
Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DbCM) is a common but underrecognized compli-cation of patients with diabetes mellitus (DM). Although the pathobiology of other cardiac complications of diabetes such as ischemic heart disease and cardiac autonomic neuropathy are mostly known with reasonable therapeutic options, the mechanisms and management options for DbCM are still not fully understood. In its early stages, DbCM presents with diastolic dysfunction followed by heart failure (HF) with preserved ejection fraction that can progress to systolic dysfunction and HF with reduced ejection fraction in its advanced stages unless appropriately managed. Apart from prompt control of DM with lifestyle changes and antidiabetic medications, disease-modifying therapy for DbCM includes prompt control of hypertension and dyslipidemia inherent to patients with DM as in other forms of heart diseases and the use of treatments with proven efficacy in HF. A basic study by Zhang et al, in a recent issue of the World Journal of Diabetes elaborates the potential pathophysiological alterations and the therapeutic role of teneligliptin in diabetic mouse models with DbCM. Although this preliminary basic study might help to improve our understanding of DbCM and offer a potential new management option for patients with the disease, the positive results from such animal models might not always translate to clinical practice as the pathobiology of DbCM in humans could be different. However, such experimental studies can encourage more scientific efforts to find a better solution to treat patients with this enigmatic disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS We aimed to examine the association between timing of clinic visits after health checks and risk of hospitalization for cardiovascular events and all-cause mortality among the high-risk population. METHODS A total of 412,059 high-risk individuals from the health claims database of the Japan Health Insurance Association were divided into 4 groups according to the timing of clinic visits during 12 months after health checks (early: <3 months, intermediate: 4-6 months, late: 7-12 months, and none). Cox proportional hazard regression models were used to examine the associations between timing of clinic visits after health checks and risk of hospitalization for stroke, coronary heart disease, heart failure, or all-cause mortality. RESULTS During a median follow-up of 4.3 years, we identified a total of 15,860 cases having composite outcomes of first hospitalization for stroke, coronary heart disease, heart failure, or all-cause mortality. Compared to high-risk adults without clinic visits after the health checks, the fully adjusted hazard ratios (95% confidence interval) of a composite outcome were 0.78 (0.74, 0.81), 0.84 (0.78, 0.89), and 0.94 (0.89, 1.00) for early, intermediate, and late clinic visits, respectively. Compared to no clinic visit, an early clinic visit was associated with lower risks of all individual endpoints, and the risk reductions appeared to be greater in the hospitalization for stroke and heart failure. CONCLUSIONS The present study using real-world data provided evidence that an early clinic visit after health checks was associated with lower risks of hospitalization for major cardiovascular events and all-cause mortality among high-risk individuals.

[PMID: 37596705 DOI: 10.1002/bdd.2374] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/07/2022] [Revised: 06/30/2023] [Accepted: 07/23/2023] [Indexed: 08/20/2023]
Abstract
Gegenqinlian decoction (GQD) is a classic prescription of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), which originated from Shanghanlun. The combination of GQD and hypoglycemic drugs (saxagliptin, Sax, metformin) is often used to treat Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in TCM clinics. However, the herb-drug interactions (HDIs) between GQD and hypoglycemic drugs are still unclear. In order to determine the safety of the combination, we assessed the influences of GQD on the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of Sax in T2DM rats. The plasma concentration of Sax (5 mg/kg) pretreated with GQD (freeze-dried powder, 1.35 g/kg) or not was determined by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), and pharmacokinetics parameters were calculated. The influence of GQD on the pharmacodynamics of Sax was investigated by detecting the levels of weight, (see abbreviations list) OGTT, TC, TG, LDL-C, HDL-C, FBG, FINS, HOMA-IR, QUICKI, AST, ALT, and the liver coefficient. The Cmax , AUC0-t ,and AUC0-∞ of Sax increased significantly in the combination group whether in normal or T2DM rats. The results of pharmacodynamics showed that the weight of rats in each treatment group increased. FBG, TC, TG, LDL-C, and HOMA-IR decreased, HDL-C, FINS, and QUICKI increased significantly (p < 0.05) compared with the model control group. The result showed that the combination of GQD and Sax could not only improve the hypoglycemic effect but also increase the plasma exposure of Sax. The potential HDIs between GQD and Sax should be taken into consideration in clinics. Moreover, for the complexity of the human compared with experimental animals, as well as genetic differences, the in-depth study should be carried out to assess the uniformity of the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics between rats and humans.

Abstract
Use of dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP4) inhibitor in some clinical trials might have caused heart failure (HF), leading to increased hospitalizations. The aim of the present study was to determine whether linagliptin has any effect on chronic dilated HF, and its underlying mechanisms. Physiologic and pathologic studies were conducted on heart/muscle-specific manganese superoxide dismutase-deficient mice, which exhibited dilated cardiomyopathy, and were randomized to receive a low dose (1 mg/kg, HF-L group) or high dose (10 mg/kg, HF-H group) mixed with food, or normal food (HF group), for 8 weeks. Linagliptin increased mortality and heart/body weight ratio in mice with HF. Cardiac contractility and fibrosis worsened, whereas hepatic glycogen content and individual carbohydrate consumption decreased significantly in the HF-H group, when compared with the HF control group. Therefore, we performed a complementary experiment by supplementing glucose to the mice treated with high-dose linagliptin (HF-HG group). Adequate glucose supplementation reduced heart/body weight ratio and cardiac fibrosis, and improved cardiac contractility, without changing mortality. Following oral administration of 13C glucose, the respiratory 13C decreased in the HF-H and HF-HG groups, when compared with that in the HF group; the fecal 13C increased, suggesting that linagliptin inhibited glucose absorbance in the intestine. In addition, the expression of GLUT2, a glucose transporter was downregulated in the small intestine. Linagliptin treatment exacerbated HF, which increased mortality, cardiac function, and fibrosis. DPP4 inhibitors might boost cardiac cachexia and exacerbate HF, at least in part, through the modification of glucose utilization and absorption.

Abstract
Uncontrolled type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and post-transplant diabetes mellitus (PTDM) increase morbidity and mortality after kidney transplantation. Conventional strategies for diabetes management in this population include metformin, sulfonylureas, meglitinides and insulin. Limitations with these agents, as well as promising new antihyperglycemic agents, create a need and opportunity to explore additional options for transplant diabetes pharmacotherapy. Novel agents including sodium glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i), glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP1RA), and dipeptidyl peptidase IV inhibitors (DPP4i) demonstrate great promise for T2DM management in the non-transplant population. Moreover, many of these agents possess renoprotective, cardiovascular, and/or weight loss benefits in addition to improved glucose control while having reduced risk of hypoglycemia compared with certain other conventional agents. This comprehensive review examines available literature evaluating the use of novel antihyperglycemic agents in kidney transplant recipients (KTR) with T2DM or PTDM. Formal grading of recommendations assessment, development, and evaluation (GRADE) system recommendations are provided to guide incorporation of these agents into post-transplant care. Available literature was evaluated to address the clinical questions of which agents provide greatest short- and long-term benefits, timing of novel antihyperglycemic therapy initiation after transplant, monitoring parameters for these antihyperglycemic agents, and concomitant antihyperglycemic agent and immunosuppression regimen management. Current experience with novel antihyperglycemic agents is primarily limited to single-center retrospective studies and case series. With ongoing use and increasing comfort, further and more robust research promises greater understanding of the role of these agents and place in therapy for kidney transplant recipients.

Abstract
AIMS To investigate the effects of glucose-lowering agents on all-cause mortality, and cardiovascular and renal outcomes in adults with type 2 diabetes. METHODS A MEDLINE and EMBASE search was performed to identify randomized controlled trials, published up to 28 February 2022, with a follow-up ≥52 weeks, in which glucose-lowering drugs were compared with either placebo or active comparators. We included only trials reporting formal external adjudication of events. All-cause mortality, 3-point MACE (major cardiovascular events), and hospitalization for heart failure (HHF) were considered as principal outcomes. Doubling of serum creatinine, worsening albuminuria, and renal death were considered as secondary endpoints. RESULTS We included randomized controlled trials performed on metformin (n = 17), pioglitazone (n = 20), alpha-glucosidase inhibitors (n = 9), insulin secretagogues (n = 42), dipeptidyl-peptidase-4 inhibitors (n = 67), glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (n = 45) or sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT-2i; n = 42) and insulin (n = 18). Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist and SGLT-2i were associated with a significant reduction in all-cause mortality [Mantel-Haenszel odds ratio (MH-OR), 95% confidence interval: 0.88 (0.83; 0.95) and 0.85 (0.79; 0.91), respectively] and MACE [MH-OR, 95% confidence interval: 0.89 (0.84; 0.94) and 0.90 (0.84; 0.96), respectively]. SGLT-2i was associated with a reduced risk of HHF [MH-OR 0.68 (0.62; 0.75)], worsening albuminuria [MH-OR 0.67 (0.55; 0.80)] and doubling of serum creatinine [MH-OR 0.58 (0.44; 0.79)]. Metformin and pioglitazone were associated with a significantly lower risk of MACE [MH-OR 0.60 (0.47; 0.80) and 0.85 (0.74; 0.97), respectively] and pioglitazone with a higher risk of HHF [MH-OR 1.30 (1.04; 1.62)]. Insulin secretagogues were associated with increased risk of all-cause mortality [MH-OR 1.12 (1.01; 1.24)] and MACE [MH-OR 1.19 (1.02; 1.39)]. CONCLUSIONS The results of this updated meta-analysis need to be considered in the choice of drug treatment for type 2 diabetes mellitus, which cannot be merely based on the effect of glucose-lowering drugs on long-term glycaemic control.

METHODS This was a multicentre retrospective study on patients aged 70-80 years with HbA1c above individualized target and starting dapagliflozin or DPP-4 inhibitors in 2015-2017. The primary outcome was the proportion reaching individualized HbA1c targets. Confounding by indication was addressed by inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW), multivariable adjustment (MVA), or propensity score matching (PSM). RESULTS Patients initiating dapagliflozin (n = 445) differed from those initiating DPP-4i (n = 977) and balance between groups was achieved with IPTW or PSM. The median follow-up was 7.5 months and baseline HbA1c was 8.3%. A smaller proportion of patients initiating dapagliflozin attained individualized HbA1c target as compared to those initiating DPP-4 inhibitors (RR 0.73, p < 0.0001). IPTW, MVA, and PSM yielded similar results. Between-group difference in the primary outcome was observed among patients with lower eGFR or longer disease duration. Dapagliflozin allowed greater reductions in body weight and blood pressure than DPP-4 inhibitors. CONCLUSIONS Elderly patients with T2D initiating dapagliflozin had a lower probability of achieving individualized HbA1c targets than those initiating DPP-4 inhibitors but displayed better improvements in extra-glycaemic endpoints.

Abstract
Posttransplant diabetes (PTD) is a common medical complication after solid organ transplantation. Because of adverse outcomes associated with its development and detrimental impact on long-term survival, strategies to prevent or manage PTD are critically important but remain underresearched. Treatment hierarchies of antidiabetic therapies in the general population are currently being revolutionized based on cardiovascular outcome trials, providing evidence-based rationale for optimization of medical management. However, opportunities for improving medical management of PTD are challenged by 2 important considerations: (1) translating clinical evidence data from the general population to underresearched solid organ transplant cohorts and (2) targeting treatment based on primary underlying PTD pathophysiology. In this article, the aim is to provide an overview of PTD treatment options from a new angle. Rationalized by a consideration of underlying PTD pathophysiological defects, which are heterogeneous among diverse transplant patient cohorts, a critical appraisal of the published literature and summary of current research in progress will be reviewed. The aim is to update transplant professionals regarding medical management of PTD from a new perspective tailored therapeutic intervention based on individualized characteristics. As the gap in clinical evidence between management of PTD versus type 2 diabetes widens, it is imperative for the transplant community to bridge this gap with targeted clinical trials to ensure we optimize outcomes for solid organ transplant recipients who are at risk or develop PTD. This necessary clinical research should help efforts to improve long-term outcomes for solid transplant patients from both a patient and graft survival perspective.

Abstract
Cardiovascular (CV) disease is the most alarming complication of diabetes mellitus (DM), and a strategy aiming at cardiovascular event prevention in diabetes mellitus has long been debated. Large landmark clinical trials have shown cardiovascular benefits of intensive glycemic control as a 'legacy effect' in newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes mellitus. In contrast, we have learned that excessive intervention aimed at strong glycemic control could cause unexpected cardiovascular death in patients who are resistant to treatments against hyperglycemia. It has also been shown that the comprehensive multifactorial intervention for cardiovascular risk factors that was advocated in the current guideline provided substantial cardiovascular event reduction. The impact of classical antidiabetic agents launched before 1990s on cardiovascular events is controversial. Although there are many clinical or observational studies assessing the impact of those agents on cardiovascular events, the conclusions are inconsistent owing to variable patient backgrounds and concomitant antidiabetic agents among the studies. Moreover, most of them were not large-scale, randomized, cardiovascular outcome trials. In contrast, GLP-1RA (glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist) and SGLT2 (sodium-glucose cotransporter 2) inhibitors have demonstrated undeniable cardiovascular benefits in large-scale, randomized, controlled trials. Whereas GLP-1RAs decrease atherosclerotic disease, especially stroke, SGLT2 inhibitors mainly prevent heart failure. SGLT2 inhibitors are superior to GLP-1RAs with respect to hard renal outcomes. Therefore, it can be said that drugs such as GLP-1RAs and SGLT2 inhibitors that prevent cardiovascular events, in addition to their glucose-lowering effect, are incredible novel tools that we have gained for use in diabetic treatment.

Effect of Dipeptidyl Peptidase-4 Inhibitors vs. Metformin on Major Cardiovascular Events Using Spontaneous Reporting System and Real-World Database Study. J Clin Med 2022; 11:jcm11174988. [PMID: 36078917 PMCID: PMC9456525 DOI: 10.3390/jcm11174988] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/11/2022] [Revised: 08/22/2022] [Accepted: 08/23/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: Metformin had been recommended as the first-line treatment for type 2 diabetes since 2006 because of its low cost, high efficacy, and potential to reduce cardiovascular events, and thus death. However, dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors are the most commonly prescribed first-line agents for patients with type 2 diabetes in Japan. Therefore, it is necessary to clarify the effect of DPP-4 inhibitors on preventing cardiovascular events, taking into consideration the actual prescription of antidiabetic drugs in Japan. Methods: This study examined the effect of DPP-4 inhibitors on preventing cardiovascular events. The Japanese Adverse Drug Event Report (JADER) database, a spontaneous reporting system in Japan, and the Japanese Medical Data Center (JMDC) Claims Database, a Japanese health insurance claims and medical checkup database, were used for the analysis. Metformin was used as the DPP-4 inhibitor comparator. Major cardiovascular events were set as the primary endpoint. Results: In the analysis using the JADER database, a signal of major cardiovascular events was detected with DPP-4 inhibitors (IC: 0.22, 95% confidence interval: 0.03–0.40) but not with metformin. In the analysis using the JMDC Claims Database, the hazard ratio of major cardiovascular events for DPP-4 inhibitors versus metformin was 1.01 (95% CI: 0.84–1.20). Conclusions: A comprehensive analysis using two different databases in Japan, the JADER and the JMDC Claims Database, showed that DPP-4 inhibitors, which are widely used in Japan, have a non-inferior risk of cardiovascular events compared to metformin, which is used as the first-line drug in the United States and Europe.

Abstract
This editorial describes the clinical trials related to antidiabetic drugs, most of them following an "add-on" design of where the new drug is added to metformin and the comparative arm is metformin plus placebo. Many drugs are already approved for therapy following this design; the authors believe that it is unethical to continue this trend because it makes it impossible to stratify the many antidiabetic drugs according to their efficacy and toxicity.

Abstract
In recent years, important changes have occurred in the field of diabetes treatment. The focus of the treatment of diabetic patients has shifted from the control of blood glucose itself to the overall management of risk factors, while adjusting blood glucose goals according to individualization. In addition, regulators need to approve new antidiabetic drugs which have been tested for cardiovascular safety. Thus, the newest class of drugs has been shown to reduce major adverse cardiovascular events, including sodium-glucose transporter 2 (SGLT2) and some glucagon like peptide 1 receptor (GLP1) analog. As such, they have a prominent place in the hyperglycemia treatment algorithms. In recent years, the role of DPP4 inhibitors (DPP4i) has been modified. DPP4i have a favorable safety profile and anti-inflammatory profile, do not cause hypoglycemia or weight gain, and do not require dose escalation. In addition, it can also be applied to some types of chronic kidney disease patients and elderly patients with diabetes. Overall, DPP4i, as a class of safe oral hypoglycemic agents, have a role in the management of diabetic patients, and there is extensive experience in their use.

Abstract
Disease burden in people with diabetes is mainly driven by long-term complications such as cardiovascular disease, heart failure and chronic kidney disease. This is a consequence of the interconnection between the cardiovascular, renal and metabolic systems, through a continuous chain of events referred to as 'the cardiorenal metabolic continuum'. Increasing evidence suggests that sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) have beneficial effects across all stages of the cardiorenal metabolic continuum, reducing morbidity and mortality in a wide range of individuals, from those with diabetes and multiple risk factors to those with established heart failure and chronic kidney disease, regardless of the presence of diabetes. Despite this robust evidence base, the complexity of label indications and misconceptions concerning potential side effects have resulted in a lack of clear understanding in primary care regarding the implementation of SGLT2is in clinical practice. With this in mind, we provide an overview of the clinical and economic benefits of SGLT2is across the cardiorenal metabolic continuum together with practical considerations in order to help address some of these concerns and clearly define the role of SGLT2is in primary care as a holistic outcomes-driven treatment with the potential to reduce disease burden across the cardiorenal metabolic spectrum.

Abstract
The increasing prevalence of diabetes and stroke is a major global public health concern. Specifically, acute stroke patients, with pre-existing diabetes, pose a clinical challenge. It is established that diabetes is associated with a worse prognosis after acute stroke and the various biological factors that mediate poor recovery profiles in diabetic patients is unknown. The level of association and impact of diabetes, in the setting of reperfusion therapy, is yet to be determined. This article presents a comprehensive overview of the current knowledge of the role of diabetes in stroke, therapeutic strategies for primary and secondary prevention of cardiovascular disease and/or stroke in diabetes, and various therapeutic considerations that may apply during pre-stroke, acute, sub-acute and post-stroke stages. The early diagnosis of diabetes as a comorbidity for stroke, as well as tailored post-stroke management of diabetes, is pivotal to our efforts to limit the burden. Increasing awareness and involvement of neurologists in the management of diabetes and other cardiovascular risk factors is desirable towards improving stroke prevention and efficacy of reperfusion therapy in acute stroke patients with diabetes.
