Sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors and incidence of atrial fibrillation in older adults with type 2 diabetes: a retrospective cohort analysis. Front Pharmacol 2024; 15:1379251. [PMID: 38846094 PMCID: PMC11153786 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2024.1379251] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/30/2024] [Accepted: 04/24/2024] [Indexed: 06/09/2024] Open
Abstract
Objectives To investigate the risk of atrial fibrillation (AF) with sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) compared to dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor (DPP4i) use in older US adults and across diverse subgroups. Methods We conducted a retrospective cohort analysis using claims data from 15% random samples of Medicare fee-for-service beneficiaries. Patients were adults with type 2 diabetes (T2D), no preexisting AF, and were newly initiated on SGLT2i or DPP4i. The outcome was the first incident AF. Inverse probability treatment weighting (IPTW) was used to balance the baseline covariates between the treatment groups including sociodemographics, comorbidities, and co-medications. Cox regression models were used to assess the effect of SGLT2i compared to DPP4i on incident AF. Results Of the 97,436 eligible individuals (mean age 71.2 ± 9.8 years, 54.6% women), 1.01% (n = 983) had incident AF over a median follow-up of 361 days. The adjusted incidence rate was 8.39 (95% CI: 6.67-9.99) and 11.70 (95% CI: 10.9-12.55) per 1,000 person-years in the SGLT2i and DPP4i groups, respectively. SGLT2is were associated with a significantly lower risk of incident AF (HR 0.73; 95% CI, 0.57 to 0.91; p = 0.01) than DPP4is. The risk reduction of incident AF was significant in non-Hispanic White individuals and subgroups with existing atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases and chronic kidney disease. Conclusion Compared to the use of DPP4i, that of SGLT2i was associated with a lower risk of AF in patients with T2D. Our findings contribute to the real-world evidence regarding the effectiveness of SGLT2i in preventing AF and support a tailored therapeutic approach to optimize treatment selection based on individual characteristics.

Treatment effect heterogeneity following type 2 diabetes treatment with GLP1-receptor agonists and SGLT2-inhibitors: a systematic review. COMMUNICATIONS MEDICINE 2023; 3:131.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A precision medicine approach in type 2 diabetes requires the identification of clinical and biological features that are reproducibly associated with differences in clinical outcomes with specific anti-hyperglycaemic therapies. Robust evidence of such treatment effect heterogeneity could support more individualized clinical decisions on optimal type 2 diabetes therapy. METHODS We performed a pre-registered systematic review of meta-analysis studies, randomized control trials, and observational studies evaluating clinical and biological features associated with heterogenous treatment effects for SGLT2-inhibitor and GLP1-receptor agonist therapies, considering glycaemic, cardiovascular, and renal outcomes. After screening 5,686 studies, we included 101 studies of SGLT2-inhibitors and 75 studies of GLP1-receptor agonists in the final systematic review. RESULTS Here we show that the majority of included papers have methodological limitations precluding robust assessment of treatment effect heterogeneity. For SGLT2-inhibitors, multiple observational studies suggest lower renal function as a predictor of lesser glycaemic response, while markers of reduced insulin secretion predict lesser glycaemic response with GLP1-receptor agonists. For both therapies, multiple post-hoc analyses of randomized control trials (including trial meta-analysis) identify minimal clinically relevant treatment effect heterogeneity for cardiovascular and renal outcomes. CONCLUSIONS Current evidence on treatment effect heterogeneity for SGLT2-inhibitor and GLP1-receptor agonist therapies is limited, likely reflecting the methodological limitations of published studies. Robust and appropriately powered studies are required to understand type 2 diabetes treatment effect heterogeneity and evaluate the potential for precision medicine to inform future clinical care.

Plain language summary This review identifies research that helps understand which clinical and biological factors that are associated with different outcomes for specific type 2 diabetes treatments. This information could help clinical providers and patients make better informed personalized decisions about type 2 diabetes treatments. We focused on two common type 2 diabetes treatments: SGLT2-inhibitors and GLP1-receptor agonists, and three outcomes: blood glucose control, heart disease, and kidney disease. We identified some potential factors that are likely to lessen blood glucose control including lower kidney function for SGLT2-inhibitors and lower insulin secretion for GLP1-receptor agonists. We did not identify clear factors that alter heart and renal disease outcomes for either treatment. Most of the studies had limitations, meaning more research is needed to fully understand the factors that influence treatment outcomes in type 2 diabetes.

Racial disparity in the co-occurrence of depression and type 2 diabetes mellitus. An electronic medical record study involving African American and White Caucasian adults from the US. J Affect Disord 2023; 330:173-179. [PMID: 36868390 DOI: 10.1016/j.jad.2023.02.097] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/30/2022] [Revised: 02/10/2023] [Accepted: 02/20/2023] [Indexed: 03/05/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Depression and diabetes commonly co-exist, however the temporal trends in the bidirectional association of both diseases in different sociodemographic setting has not been explored. We investigated the trends in prevalence and likelihood of having either depression or type 2 diabetes (T2DM) in African American (AA, or black) and White Caucasians (WC, or white). METHODS In this nationwide population-based study, the US Centricity Electronic Medical Records was used to establish cohorts of >2.5 million adults diagnosed with either T2DM or depression between 2006 and 2017. Logistic regression models were used to investigate ethnic differences in: (a) subsequent probability of depression in individuals with T2DM; and (b) subsequent probability of T2DM in individuals with depression; stratified by age and sex. RESULTS A total of 920,771 (15 % black) adults were identified with T2DM and 1,801,679 (10 % black) with depression. AA diagnosed with T2DM were much younger (56 vs. 60 years) and had significantly lower prevalence of depression (17 vs. 28 %). AA diagnosed with depression were slightly younger (46 vs. 48 years) and had significantly higher prevalence of T2DM (21 % vs. 14 %). The prevalence of depression in T2DM increased from 12 % (11, 14) to 23 % (20, 23) in black and 26 (25, 26) to 32 (32, 33) in white. Depressive AA above 50 years recorded the highest adjusted probability of T2DM (men: 6.3 % (5.8, 7.0), women: 6.3 % (5.9, 6.7)), while diabetic white women below 50 years had the highest probability of depression (20.2 % (18.6, 22.0)). No significant ethnic difference in diabetes was observed for younger adults diagnosed with depression: black 3.1 % (2.7, 3.7); white 2.5 % (2.2, 2.7). CONCLUSIONS We have observed significant difference in depression between AA and WC recently diagnosed with diabetes consistent across different demographics. Depression in people with diabetes is increasing with significantly higher values among white women younger than 50 years.

Abstract
AIMS/HYPOTHESIS We aimed to investigate the prevalence and incidence of depression, and the interplay of cardiometabolic comorbidities, in the differentiation of depression risk between young-onset diabetes (diagnosis at age <40 years) and usual-onset diabetes (diagnosis at age ≥40 years). METHODS Using electronic medical records from the UK and USA, retrospective cohorts of adults with incident type 2 diabetes diagnosed between 2006 and 2017 were examined. Trends in the prevalence and incidence of depression, and risk of developing depression, in participants with young-onset type 2 diabetes compared with usual-onset type 2 diabetes were assessed separately by sex and comorbidity status. RESULTS In total 230,932/1,143,122 people with type 2 diabetes from the UK/USA (mean age 58/60 years, proportion of men 57%/46%) were examined. The prevalence of depression in the UK/USA increased from 29% (95% CI 28, 30)/22% (95% CI 21, 23) in 2006 to 43% (95% CI 42, 44)/29% (95% CI 28, 29) in 2017, with the prevalence being similar across all age groups. A similar increasing trend was observed for incidence rates. In the UK, compared with people aged ≥50 years with or without comorbidity, 18-39-year-old men and women had 23-57% and 20-55% significantly higher risks of depression, respectively. In the USA, compared with those aged ≥60 years with or without comorbidity, 18-39-year-old men and women had 5-17% and 8-37% significantly higher risks of depression, respectively. CONCLUSIONS/INTERPRETATION Depression risk has been increasing in people with incident type 2 diabetes in the UK and USA, particularly among those with young-onset type 2 diabetes, irrespective of other comorbidities. This suggests that proactive mental health assessment from the time of type 2 diabetes diagnosis in primary care is essential for effective clinical management of people with type 2 diabetes.

Abstract
Evaluating appropriate methodologies for imputation of missing outcome data from electronic medical records (EMRs) is crucial but lacking for observational studies. Using US EMR in people with type 2 diabetes treated over 12 and 24 months with dipeptidyl peptidase 4 inhibitors (DPP-4i, n = 38,483) and glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RA, n = 8,977), predictors of missingness of disease biomarker (HbA1c) were explored. Robustness of multiple imputation (MI) by chained equations, two-fold MI (MI-2F) and MI with Monte Carlo Markov Chain were compared to complete case analyses for drawing inferences. Compared to younger people (age quartile Q1), those in age quartile Q3 and Q4 were less likely to have missing HbA1c by 25-32% (range of OR CI: 0.55-0.88) at 6-month follow-up and by 26-39% (range of OR CI: 0.50-0.80) at 12-month follow-up. People with HbA1c ≥ 7.5% at baseline were 12% (OR CI: 0.83, 0.93) and 14% (OR CI: 0.77, 0.97) less likely to have missing data at 6-month follow-up in the DPP-4i and GLP-1RA groups, respectively. All imputation methods provided similar HbA1c distributions during follow-up as observed with complete case analyses. The clinical inferences based on absolute change in HbA1c and by proportion of people reducing HbA1c to a clinically acceptable level (≤ 7%) were also similar between imputed data and complete case analyses. MI-2F method provided marginally smaller mean difference between observed and imputed data with relatively smaller standard error of difference, compared to other methods, while evaluating for consistency through artificial within-sample analyses. The established MI techniques can be reliably employed for missing outcome data imputations in large EMR-based relational databases, leading to efficiently designing and drawing robust clinical inferences in pharmaco-epidemiological studies.

Abstract
Cardiometabolic (CMO) risks factors do not provide similar cardiovascular disease (CVD) predictions in young African (AA) and European Americans (EA) adults. Whether CMO risk predictions contribute to this disparity in older adults is unclear. We hypothesize that older AA CMO clustering pattern will be different from EA clustering patterns when determine with non-fasting lipid and lipoproteins. The participants were 106 older adults (66 AA and 40 EA) from a working/middle class neighborhood (income $46,364 – $80,904) in an urban North Carolina community. The participants were evaluated for CMO risk factors (total cholesterol, high- (HDL) and low-density lipoproteins (LDL), triglyceride (TG), glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c), systolic –SBP- and diastolic blood pressures -DBP), body mass index (BMI), body fat % (BF%) and timed up and go test (assessed falls risk and physical function). The AA participants were heavier, had higher BMI, BF%, and timed up and go values (p < 0.01). The data were evaluated for differences (t-test) and Pearson correlations for relationships. If data differ by p < 0.05 the data were significantly different. The AA had a 17.6 % higher HDL (64.7 vs 55.1 mg/dL – p < 0.05) and 7.6 % higher HbA1c (5.8 vs 5.4 % – p < 0.01) than EA. Higher HDL values in EA indicate lower CVD risks. The HDL paradox for AA (AA had higher HDL values, but greater CVD risks) was observed and the HbA1c difference may be misleading, as similar glucose values in AA tend to have higher HbA1c values. Lipid, lipoprotein, and blood pressure was not different between the races. AA had higher body composition and HDL values. Although future research on this topic with larger samples, dietary data and detailed descriptions of participations medications is warranted to validate findings from this study. These data suggest older AA and EA adults with similar environmental conditions have similar CMO risks when measures with none fasting blood samples. Since AA have a greater prevalence of CVD, these finding suggests that population specific CMO risk factor clustering may be more effective predictors of CVD for AA.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore risks and associated mediation effects of developing chronic kidney disease (CKD) and heart failure (HF) in young- and usual-onset type 2 diabetes (T2D) between White Americans (WAs) and African Americans (AAs). RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS From U.S. medical records, 1,491,672 WAs and 31,133 AAs were identified and stratified by T2D age of onset (18-39, 40-49, 50-59, 60-70 years). Risks, mediation effects, and time to CKD and HF were evaluated, adjusting for time-varying confounders. RESULTS In the 18-39, 40-49, 50-59, 60-70 age-groups, the hazard ratios (of developing CKD and HF in AAs versus WAs were 1.21 (95% CI 1.17-1.26) and 2.21 (1.98-2.45), 1.25 (1.22-1.28) and 1.86 (1.75-1.97), 1.21 (1.19-1.24) and 1.54 (1.48-1.60), and 1.10 (1.08-1.12) and 1.11 (1.07-1.15), respectively. In AAs and WAs aged 18-39 years, time in years to CKD (8.7 [95% CI 8.2-9.1] and 9.7 [9.2-10.2]) and HF (10.3 [9.3-11.2] and 12.1 [10.6-13.5]) were, on average, 3.6 and 4.0 and 3.1 and 4.1 years longer compared with those diagnosed at age 60-70 years. Compared with females, AA males aged <60 years had an 11-49% higher CKD risk, while WA males aged <40 years had a 23% higher and those aged ≥50 years a 7-14% lower CKD risk, respectively. The mediation effects of CKD on the HF risk difference between ethnicities across age-groups (range 54-91%) were higher compared with those of HF on CKD risk difference between ethnicities across age-groups (13-39%). CONCLUSIONS Developing cardiorenal complications within an average of 10 years of young-onset T2DM and high mediation effects of CKD on HF call for revisiting guidelines on early diagnosis and proactive treatment strategies for effective management of cardiometabolic risk.

Abstract
Background Sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT-2is) are licenced for initiation for glucose lowering in people with type 2 diabetes (T2DM) with an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) ≥ 60 mL/min/1.73m2). However, recent trial data have shown that these medications have renal and cardio-protective effects, even for impaired kidney function. The extent to which trial evidence and updated guidelines have influenced real-world prescribing of SGLT-2is is not known, particularly with co-administration of diuretics. Methods We performed a cross-sectional analysis of people with T2DM registered with practices in the Oxford-Royal College of General Practitioners (RCGP) Research and Surveillance Centre (RSC) database on the 31st July 2019. We calculated the percentage of people prescribed SGLT-2is according to eGFR categories (< 45, 45–59, and ≥ 60 mL/min/1.73m2), with a heart failure diagnosis and stratified by body mass index categories (underweight, normal weight, overweight, obese), and with concomitant prescription of a diuretic. Multilevel logistic regression analysis was performed to determine whether heart failure diagnosis and renal function were associated with SGLT-2i prescribing. Results From a population of 242,624 people with T2DM across 419 practices, 11.0% (n = 26,700) had been prescribed SGLT-2is. The majority of people initiated SGLT-2is had an eGFR ≥ 60 mL/min/1.73m2 (93.2%), and 4.3% had a heart failure diagnosis. 9,226 (3.8%) people were prescribed SGLT-2is as an add-on to their diuretic prescription. People in the highest eGFR category (≥ 60 mL/min/1.73m2) were more likely to be prescribed SGLT-2is than those in eGFR lower categories. Overweight (OR 2.05, 95% CI 1.841–2.274) and obese people (OR 3.84, 95% CI 3.472–4.250) were also more likely to be prescribed these medications, whilst use of diuretics (OR 0.74, 95% CI 0.682–0.804) and heart failure (OR 0.81, 95% CI 0.653–0.998) were associated with lower odds of being prescribed SGLT-2is. Conclusions Prescribing patterns of SGLT-2is for glucose lowering in T2DM in primary care generally concur with licenced indications according to recommended renal thresholds. A small percentage of people with heart failure were prescribed SGLT-2is for T2DM. An updated analysis is merited should UK National Institute for Health Care and Excellence prescribing guidelines for T2DM be revised to incorporate new data on the benefits for those with reduced renal function or with heart failure.

Diabetes Obes Metab 2021; 23:1150-1161. [PMID: 33496366 DOI: 10.1111/dom.14323] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/24/2020] [Revised: 12/24/2020] [Accepted: 01/14/2021] [Indexed: 12/17/2022]
Abstract
AIM To evaluate temporal patterns in co-morbidities, cardiometabolic risk factors and a high atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) risk population at type 2 diabetes (T2D) diagnosis by age groups and sex. MATERIALS AND METHODS From the UK primary care database, 248,619 people with a new diagnosis of T2D during 2005-2016 were identified. Among people without ASCVD, high ASCVD risk was defined as two or more of current smoker, grade 2+ obesity, hypertension, dyslipidaemia or microvascular disease. Cardiometabolic multimorbidity (CMM) was defined as two or more of cardiovascular disease, microvascular disease, hypertension, dyslipidaemia, grade 2+ obesity or cancer. Temporal patterns in the distribution of cardiometabolic risk factors were evaluated. RESULTS While the prevalence of ASCVD was stable over time (approximately 18%), 50% were identified to have a high ASCVD risk (26% and 38% in the 18-39 and 40-49 years age groups, respectively), with an increasing trend across all age groups. Overall, 51% had CMM at diagnosis, increasing during 2005-2016 for the 18-39 years age group by 14%-17%, for the 40-49 years age group by 27%-33%, for the 50-59 years age group by 41%-50%, for the 60-69 years age group by 56%-65%, and for the 70-79 years age group by 65%-80%. People with young-onset T2D had significantly higher HbA1c, body mass index and lipids at diagnosis (all p < .01). The proportions with an HbA1c of 7.5% or higher in the 18-39 and 40-49 years age groups were 58% and 54%, respectively, significantly and consistently higher over the last decade compared with those aged 50 years or older, with males having higher proportions of 15-26 and 10-18 percentage points, respectively, compared with females. CONCLUSIONS CMM and high ASCVD risk have been increasing consistently across all age groups and in both sex, in particular CMM in those aged younger than 50 years. Our findings indicate that the European Society of Cardiology-European Association for the Study of Diabetes recommendations need to change to consider people with young-onset T2D as a high-risk group, as recommended in the Primary Care Diabetes Europe position statement.
