Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW To review the most recent clinical trials and data regarding epidemiology, pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction with an emphasis on the recent trends in cardiometabolic interventions. RECENT FINDINGS Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction makes up approximately half of overall heart failure and is associated with significant morbidity, mortality, and overall burden on the healthcare system. It is a complex, heterogenous syndrome and clinical trials, to this point, have not revealed quite as many effective treatment options when compared to heart failure with reduced ejection fraction. Nevertheless, there is an expanding amount of data insight into the pathogenesis of this disease and the potential for newer therapies and management strategies. Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction pathology has been found to be linked to abnormal energetics, myocyte hypertrophy, cell signaling, inflammation, ischemia, and fibrosis. These mechanisms also intricately overlap with the significant comorbidities often associated with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction including, but not limited to, atrial fibrillation, chronic kidney disease, hypertension, obesity and coronary artery disease. Treatment of this disease, therefore, should focus on the management and strict regulation of these comorbidities by pharmacologic and nonpharmacologic means. In this review, a clinical update is provided reviewing the most recent clinical trials and data regarding epidemiology, pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction with an emphasis on the recent trend in cardiometabolic interventions.

Abstract
Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists (RAs) are emerging glucose-lowering agents primarily used in managing diabetes and obesity. Recently, GLP-1 RAs have garnered attention for their cardiovascular benefits beyond glycaemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes, exhibiting patterns previously seen in cardiovascular outcomes trials on sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors, which now receive a high level of recommendation for the treatment of heart failure (HF). GLP-1 RAs have been increasingly investigated in HF cohorts, but mainly in small-scale studies reporting inconclusive findings regarding clinical outcomes and different safety profiles in HF patients with reduced and preserved ejection fractions. This review discusses the effects of GLP-1 RAs on surrogate HF outcomes, such as cardiac structure and function, exercise capacity and quality of life, in HF patients across the spectrum of left ventricular ejection fraction, to provide insights into the potential of these agents to be investigated in large clinical trials to evaluate clinical outcomes.

[PMID: 39324124 PMCID: PMC11422118 DOI: 10.3389/fendo.2024.1428160] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/05/2024] [Accepted: 08/26/2024] [Indexed: 09/27/2024] Open
Abstract
Objective The aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors (DPP4i) on cardiac structure and function by cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR). Research Methods & Procedures: Database including PubMed, Cochrane library, Embase and SinoMed for clinical studies of DPP4i on cardiac structure and function by CMR were searched. Two authors extracted the data and evaluated study quality independently. Mean difference (MD) or standardized MD and 95% confidence intervals (CI) were used for continuous variables. Review Manager 5.3 was used to performed the analysis. Results Ten references (nine studies) were included in this meta-analysis. Most of the studies were assessed as well quality by the assessment of methodological quality. For clinical control studies, the merged MD values of △LVEF by fixed-effect model and the pooled effect size in favor of DPP4i was 1.55 (95% CI 0.35 to 2.74, P=0.01). Compared with positive control drugs, DPP4i can significantly improve the LVEF (MD=4.69, 95%CI=2.70 to 6.69), but no such change compared to placebo (MD=-0.20, 95%CI=-1.69 to 1.29). For single-arm studies and partial clinical control studies that reported LVEF values before and after DPP4i treatment, random-effect model was used to combine effect size due to a large heterogeneity (Chi2 = 11.26, P=0.02, I2 = 64%), and the pooled effect size in favor of DPP4i was 2.31 (95% CI 0.01 to 4.62, P=0.05). DPP4i significantly increased the Peak filling rate (PFR) without heterogeneity when the effect sizes of two single-arm studies were combined (MD=31.98, 95% CI 13.69 to 50.27, P=0.0006; heterogeneity test: Chi2 = 0.56, P=0.46, I2 = 0%). Conclusions In summary, a possible benefit of DPP4i in cardiac function (as measured by CMR) was found, both including ventricular systolic function and diastolic function.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Ethnic differences in the progression and outcome of diabetic kidney disease (DKD) remain to be elucidated. MRI-quantified renal sinus fat volume could be a potential biomarker to help investigate the changes of DKD risk in response to glucose regulation. PURPOSE To evaluate whether the effect of glucose-lowering treatment on renal sinus fat volume differed in West Europeans (WE) compared to South Asians (SA), and whether ethnic-related difference exists regarding the effect of liraglutide on renal sinus fat. STUDY TYPE Retrospective. POPULATION Ninety-three patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, including 47 WE (27 males) aged 59.3 ± 6.5 years, and 46 SA (19 males) aged 54.4 ± 9.8 years. FIELD STRENGTH/SEQUENCE 3.0 T dual-echo fast gradient-echo pulse sequence using two-point Dixon technique with a phase-correction algorithm. ASSESSMENT Changes of renal sinus fat volume were measured by a radiologist (LL) with 4-years' experience, and were compared between the two ethnic groups, together with glycemic level, metabolic risk factors and renal function. The effects of liraglutide were assessed. STATISTICAL TESTS Normality of the data was visually evaluated by histograms and Q-Q plots. Within-group and between-group differences were analyzed using paired t-tests and analysis of covariance. Associations were analyzed by person's correlation and multiple linear regression models. RESULTS Renal sinus fat decreased in SA patients (Δ% = -7.6% ± 14.8%), but increased in WE patients (Δ% = 5.0% ± 13.1%), with a significant difference between the two ethnic groups. In the WE group, the increase of sinus fat volume was significant in the placebo subgroup (Δ% = 6.8% ± 12.5%), in contrast to the nonsignificant increase in the liraglutide subgroup (Δ% = 3.0% ± 13.8%, P = 0.444). DATA CONCLUSION Renal sinus fat accumulation responds differently to glucose regulation, showing a reduction in SA patients in contrast to a persistent accumulation in WE patients. A trend of less accumulation of sinus fat in WE patients receiving liraglutide has been observed. EVIDENCE LEVEL 4 TECHNICAL EFFICACY: Stage 4.

Growth differentiation factor 15 is not modified after weight loss induced by liraglutide in South Asians and Europids with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Exp Physiol 2024; 109:1292-1304.

Abstract
Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor (GLP-1R) agonists induce weight loss in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), but the underlying mechanism is unclear. Recently, the mechanism by which metformin induces weight loss could be explained by an increase in growth differentiation factor 15 (GDF15), which suppresses appetite. Therefore, we aimed to investigate whether the GLP-1R agonist liraglutide modifies plasma GDF15 levels in patients with T2DM. GDF15 levels were measured in plasma samples obtained from Dutch Europids and Dutch South Asians with T2DM before and after 26 weeks of treatment with daily liraglutide (n = 44) or placebo (n = 50) added to standard care. At baseline, circulating GDF15 levels did not differ between South Asians and Europids with T2DM. Treatment with liraglutide, compared to placebo, decreased body weight, but did not modify plasma GDF15 levels in all patients, or when data were split by ethnicity. Also, the change in plasma GDF15 levels after treatment with liraglutide did not correlate with changes in body weight or HbA1c levels. In addition, the dose of metformin used did not correlate with baseline plasma GDF15 levels. Compared to placebo, liraglutide treatment for 26 weeks does not modify plasma GDF15 levels in Dutch Europid or South Asian patients with T2DM. Thus, the weight loss induced by liraglutide is likely explained by other mechanisms beyond the GDF15 pathway. HIGHLIGHTS: What is the central question of this study? Growth differentiation factor 15 (GDF15) suppresses appetite and is increased by metformin: does the GLP-1R agonist liraglutide modify plasma GDF15 levels in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM)? What is the main finding and its importance? Plasma GDF15 levels did not differ between South Asians and Europids with T2DM and were not modified by 26 weeks of liraglutide in either ethnicity. Moreover, there was no correlation between the changes in plasma GDF15 levels and dosage of metformin administered, changes in body weight or HbA1c levels. The appetite-suppressing effect of liraglutide is likely exerted via pathways other than GDF15.

Abstract
AIMS To conduct an updated systematic review and meta-analysis to evaluate the efficacy of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) with regard to cardiac function and structure in people with or without type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). MATERIALS AND METHODS We conducted a systematic search using the PubMed, Embase and ClinicalTrials.gov online databases. The primary outcome of interest was changes in mitral inflow E-velocity to tissue Doppler e' velocity (E/e') ratio. Secondary outcomes included other indicators of cardiac reverse remodelling and functional capacity comprising changes in left ventricular mass (LVM), left ventricular global longitudinal strain, left ventricular end-diastolic volume, left ventricular end-systolic volume, left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), early to atrial mitral inflow velocity ratio, left atrial volume (LAV), N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) levels and 6-min walk test (6MWT) results. RESULTS A total of 15 trials involving 898 patients were included in this analysis. GLP-1RAs significantly improved E/e' ratio (mean difference [MD] = -0.73; 95% confidence interval [CI] -1.34, -0.13), LVM (MD = -3.86 g; 95% CI -7.60, -0.12), LAV (MD = -8.20 mL; 95% CI -12.37, -4.04), NT-proBNP level (standardized MD = -0.27; 95% CI -0.47, -0.06), and 6MWT result (MD = +22.31 m; 95% CI 1.64, 42.99). However, GLP-1RAs had no effect on LVEF (MD = +0.31%; 95% CI -1.02, 1.64). CONCLUSIONS In this systematic review and meta-analysis, GLP-1RAs were found to have a positive impact on left ventricle diastolic function, hypertrophy, and exercise capacity, but had no effect on systolic function.

Abstract
Over the last few years, given the increase in the incidence and prevalence of both type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and heart failure (HF), it became crucial to develop guidelines for the optimal preventive and treatment strategies for individuals facing these coexisting conditions. In patients aged over 65, HF hospitalization stands out as the predominant reason for hospital admissions, with their prognosis being associated with the presence or absence of T2DM. Historically, certain classes of glucose-lowering drugs, such as thiazolidinediones (rosiglitazone), raised concerns due to an observed increased risk of myocardial infarction (MI) and cardiovascular (CV)-related mortality. In response to these concerns, regulatory agencies started requiring CV outcome trials for all novel antidiabetic agents [i.e., dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors (DPP-4 inhibitors), glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs), and sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2is)] with the aim to assess the CV safety of these drugs beyond glycemic control. This narrative review aims to address the current knowledge about the impact of glucose-lowering agents used in T2DM on HF prevention, prognosis, and outcome.

Abstract
Therapy with glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP1) receptor agonists has raised great interest for its beneficial cardiovascular effects in preventing atherosclerosis and heart failure-related outcomes. However, while evidence about atherosclerosis consistently suggests a cardioprotective potential with class effect, controversies remain on its impact on heart failure. GLP1 receptor agonists appear to prevent hospitalization for new-onset heart failure and reduce symptoms in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (as demonstrated by the recent STEP-HFpEF Trial). Still, GLP1 agonism has resulted in neutral or even harmful effects in patients with established heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (the LIVE trial). GLP1 receptor agonists benefit the cardiovascular system indirectly through their marked metabolic effects (improved weight management, glycemic control, blood pressure, systemic and tissue inflammation), while direct effects on the heart have been questioned. Nonetheless, weight loss alone achieved through GLP1 receptor agonists has failed in improving left ventricular functions. Tirzepatide is a dual agonist of GLP1 and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide, representing an innovative treatment option in diabetes with a major impact on weight loss and promising cardiovascular benefits. Whether this class of therapies is going to change the history of heart failure is an ongoing debate.

[PMID: 38774880 PMCID: PMC11106398 DOI: 10.3389/fimmu.2024.1393392] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/29/2024] [Accepted: 04/16/2024] [Indexed: 05/24/2024] Open
Abstract
This review provides a comprehensive analysis of the critical role played by macrophages and their underlying mechanisms in the progression of diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM). It begins by discussing the origins and diverse subtypes of macrophages, elucidating their spatial distribution and modes of intercellular communication, thereby emphasizing their significance in the pathogenesis of DCM. The review then delves into the intricate relationship between macrophages and the onset of DCM, particularly focusing on the epigenetic regulatory mechanisms employed by macrophages in the context of DCM condition. Additionally, the review discusses various therapeutic strategies aimed at targeting macrophages to manage DCM. It specifically highlights the potential of natural food components in alleviating diabetic microvascular complications and examines the modulatory effects of existing hypoglycemic drugs on macrophage activity. These findings, summarized in this review, not only provide fresh insights into the role of macrophages in diabetic microvascular complications but also offer valuable guidance for future therapeutic research and interventions in this field.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Diabetic cardiomyopathy is defined as abnormal structure and function of the heart in the setting of diabetes, which could eventually develop heart failure and leads to the death of the patients. Although blood glucose control and medications to heart failure show beneficial effects on this disease, there is currently no specific treatment for diabetic cardiomyopathy. Over the past few decades, the pathophysiology of diabetic cardiomyopathy has been extensively studied, and an increasing number of studies pinpoint that impaired mitochondrial energy metabolism is a key mediator as well as a therapeutic target. In this review, we summarize the latest research in the field of diabetic cardiomyopathy, focusing on mitochondrial damage and adaptation, altered energy substrates, and potential therapeutic targets. A better understanding of the mitochondrial energy metabolism in diabetic cardiomyopathy may help to gain more mechanistic insights and generate more precise mitochondria-oriented therapies to treat this disease.

Effects of Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 Receptor Agonist (GLP-1RA) on Cardiac Structure and Function: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Randomized-Controlled Trials. Cardiovasc Drugs Ther 2024; 38:371-389. [PMID: 35819544 DOI: 10.1007/s10557-022-07360-w] [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] [Accepted: 06/10/2022] [Indexed: 11/25/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE Recent trials suggest glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) may have a cardioprotective role by reducing major adverse cardiac events, stroke mortality and heart failure-related hospitalisations. We examined whether and how GLP-1RAs affect cardiac function in cardiovascular and metabolic diseases including type 2 diabetes, heart failure and post-myocardial infarction. METHODS In this PRISMA-adherent systematic review and meta-analysis, three databases were searched from inception to July 2021 and registered on PROSPERO (CRD42021259661). RESULTS 20 reports of 19 randomized placebo-controlled trials including 2062 participants were meta-analyzed. Among type 2 diabetes patients, GLP-1RA resulted in improved systolic function measured by circumferential strain (mean difference [MD]= -5.48; 95% CI: -10.47 to -0.49; P= 0.03; I2= 89%) and diastolic dysfunction measured by E / A (MD= -0.15; 95% CI: -0.25 to -0.05; P= 0.003; I2= 0%). For post-myocardial infarction patients, GLP-1RA reduced infarct size (g) (MD= -5.36; 95% CI: -10.68 to -0.04; P= 0.05; I2= 78%). Liraglutide, but not exenatide, demonstrated improved systolic function, by increasing left ventricular ejection fraction (MD= 4.89; 95% CI: 3.62 to 6.16; P< 0.00001; I2= 0%) and reducing left ventricular end-systolic volume (MD= -4.15; 95% CI: -7.49 to -0.81; P = 0.01; I2= 0%). Among heart failure patients, no significant changes were noted. CONCLUSION GLP-1RA drugs may improve systolic and diastolic function in type 2 diabetes and reduce infarct size post-acute myocardial infarction with no demonstrable effect on cardiac function in heart failure. Tailored recommendations for the use of GLP-1RAs for cardioprotection should be considered for each patient's condition.

Effect of liraglutide on cardiac function in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus: A systematic review and meta-analysis of double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trials. Medicine (Baltimore) 2024; 103:e37432. [PMID: 38489694 PMCID: PMC10939689 DOI: 10.1097/md.0000000000037432] [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: 09/22/2023] [Revised: 01/16/2024] [Accepted: 02/08/2024] [Indexed: 03/17/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Liraglutide widely utilized in type 2 diabetes treatment, has elicited conflicting findings regarding its impact on cardiac function in patients with this condition. Therefore, The objective of this study was to conduct a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) to evaluate the effects of liraglutide on cardiac function in patients diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. METHODS We identified double-blind randomized trials assessing the effects of liraglutide compared to placebo on cardiac function in patients with type 2 diabetes. Data were synthesized with the fixed-effect models to generate standard mean differences (SMDs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) of each outcome for liraglutide versus placebo. The risk of bias would be assessed according to the Cochrane Risk of Bias Tool, while meta-analysis would be conducted using Revman 5.3.0 software. The evidence was graded based on the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation approach. RESULTS The meta-analysis encompassed 5 RCTs including 220 participants. Results revealed that liraglutide exhibited significant enhancements in left ventricular ejection fraction [SMD = -0.38, 95%CI(-0.70, -0.06), P = .02], cardiac index [SMD = -1.05, 95%CI(-1.52, -0.59), P < .0001], stroke volume [SMD = -0.67, 95%CI(-1.02, -0.32), P = .0002] and early diastolic filling velocity/late atrial filling velocity ratio [SMD = -0.52, 95%CI(-0.82, -0.22), P = .0006]. However, no statistically significant impact on cardiac output [SMD = -0.20, 95%CI(-0.53, 0.14), P = .26], early diastolic filling velocity/early diastolic annular velocity (E/Ea) ratio [SMD = -0.34, 95%CI(-0.75, 0.06), P = .10] and early diastolic filling velocity/early diastolic mitral annular velocity ratio [SMD = 0.21, 95%CI(-0.15, 0.56), P = .25] was observed. The Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation evidence quality ratings indicated that all the outcome measures included in this study were evaluated as having low and very low quality. CONCLUSION The available evidence suggested that liraglutide may exert a favorable impact on cardiac function in patients with type 2 diabetes. Consequently, the utilization of liraglutide as a preventive measure against heart failure incidents in individuals with type 2 diabetes represents a promising strategy. However, robust evidence support requires the conduct of large-scale, multicenter high-quality RCTs.

Abstract
Originally designed as anti-hyperglycemic drugs, Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1Ra) and Sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) have demonstrated protective cardiovascular effects, with significant impact on cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Despite several mechanisms have been proposed, the exact pathophysiology behind these effects is not yet fully understood. Cardiovascular imaging is key for the evaluation of diabetic patients, with an established role from the identification of early subclinical changes to long-term follow up and prognostic assessment. Among the different imaging modalities, CMR may have a key-role being the gold standard for volumes and function assessment and having the unique ability to provide tissue characterization. Novel techniques are also implementing the possibility to evaluate cardiac metabolism through CMR and thereby further increasing the potential role of the modality in this context. Aim of this paper is to provide a comprehensive review of changes in CMR parameters and novel CMR techniques applied in both pre-clinical and clinical studies evaluating the effects of SGLT2i and GLP-1Ra, and their potential role in better understanding the underlying CV mechanisms of these drugs.

Anti-Arrhythmic Effects of Heart Failure Guideline-Directed Medical Therapy and Their Role in the Prevention of Sudden Cardiac Death: From Beta-Blockers to Sodium-Glucose Cotransporter 2 Inhibitors and Beyond. J Clin Med 2024; 13:1316. [PMID: 38592135 PMCID: PMC10931968 DOI: 10.3390/jcm13051316] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/10/2024] [Revised: 02/14/2024] [Accepted: 02/21/2024] [Indexed: 04/10/2024] Open
Abstract
Sudden cardiac death (SCD) accounts for a substantial proportion of mortality in heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), frequently triggered by ventricular arrhythmias (VA). This review aims to analyze the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying VA and SCD in HFrEF and evaluate the effectiveness of guideline-directed medical therapy (GDMT) in reducing SCD. Beta-blockers, angiotensin receptor-neprilysin inhibitors, and mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists have shown significant efficacy in reducing SCD risk. While angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors and angiotensin receptor blockers exert beneficial impacts on the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system, their direct role in SCD prevention remains less clear. Emerging treatments like sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors show promise but necessitate further research for conclusive evidence. The favorable outcomes of those molecules on VA are notably attributable to sympathetic nervous system modulation, structural remodeling attenuation, and ion channel stabilization. A multidimensional pharmacological approach targeting those pathophysiological mechanisms offers a complete and synergy approach to reducing SCD risk, thereby highlighting the importance of optimizing GDMT for HFrEF. The current landscape of HFrEF pharmacotherapy is evolving, with ongoing research needed to clarify the full extent of the anti-arrhythmic benefits offered by both existing and new treatments.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) poses a higher risk for complications in South Asian individuals compared to other ethnic groups. To shed light on potential mediating factors, we investigated lipidomic changes in plasma of Dutch South Asians (DSA) and Dutch white Caucasians (DwC) with and without T2DM and explore their associations with clinical features. Using a targeted quantitative lipidomics platform, monitoring over 1000 lipids across 17 classes, along with 1H NMR based lipoprotein analysis, we studied 51 healthy participants (21 DSA, 30 DwC) and 92 T2DM patients (47 DSA, 45 DwC) from the MAGNetic resonance Assessment of VICTOza efficacy in the Regression of cardiovascular dysfunction in type 2 dIAbetes mellitus (MAGNA VICTORIA) study. This comprehensive mapping of the circulating lipidome allowed us to identify relevant lipid modules through unbiased weighted correlation network analysis, as well as disease and ethnicity related key mediatory lipids. Significant differences in lipidomic profiles, encompassing various lipid classes and species, were observed between T2DM patients and healthy controls in both the DSA and DwC populations. Our analyses revealed that healthy DSA, but not DwC, controls already exhibited a lipid profile prone to develop T2DM. Particularly, in DSA-T2DM patients, specific lipid changes correlated with clinical features, particularly diacylglycerols (DGs), showing significant associations with glycemic control and renal function. Our findings highlight an ethnic distinction in lipid modules influencing clinical outcomes in renal health. We discover distinctive ethnic disparities of the circulating lipidome and identify ethnicity-specific lipid markers. Jointly, our discoveries show great potential as personalized biomarkers for the assessment of glycemic control and renal function in DSA-T2DM individuals.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Diabetic cardiomyopathy is one of the leading causes of mortality for people with diabetes worldwide. The majority of the formalistic alterations in the heart associated with diabetic cardiomyopathy have been found to be primarily caused by the ongoing oxidative stress brought on by hyperglycemia, which leads to the dysfunctional reactions of apoptosis and inflammation. Liraglutide, a long-acting counterpart of glucagon-like peptide-1, has been demonstrated to have a number of therapeutic applications in medicine and other biological processes. METHODS The PubMed database was searched using the terms liraglutide, DCM, and all associated inflammatory markers. RESULTS There has been a lot of research on liraglutide's potential to protect the heart from cardiomyopathy brought on by diabetes. Liraglutide's therapeutic actions as an antioxidant, antihyperglycemic, anti-apoptotic, and anti-inflammatory medicine may help to lessen diabetic cardiomyopathy. CONCLUSION The most recent studies on the effects of liraglutide therapy on DCM are presented in this review, along with an explanation of the underlying mechanisms.

Abstract
Cardiovascular disease, especially heart failure (HF) is the leading cause of death in patients with diabetes. Individuals with diabetes are prone to a special type of cardiomyopathy called diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM), which cannot be explained by heart diseases such as hypertension or coronary artery disease, and can contribute to HF. Unfortunately, the current treatment strategy for diabetes-related cardiovascular complications is mainly to control blood glucose levels; nonetheless, the improvement of cardiac structure and function is not ideal. The transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily V member 1 (TRPV1), a nonselective cation channel, has been shown to be universally expressed in the cardiovascular system. Increasing evidence has shown that the activation of TRPV1 channel has a potential protective influence on the cardiovascular system. Numerous studies show that activating TRPV1 channels can improve the occurrence and progression of diabetes-related complications, including cardiomyopathy; however, the specific mechanisms and effects are unclear. In this review, we summarize that TRPV1 channel activation plays a protective role in the heart of diabetic models from oxidation/nitrification stress, mitochondrial function, endothelial function, inflammation, and cardiac energy metabolism to inhibit the occurrence and progression of DCM. Therefore, TRPV1 may become a latent target for the prevention and treatment of diabetes-induced cardiovascular complications.

Abstract
A significant cardiac complication of diabetes is cardiomyopathy, a form of ventricular dysfunction that develops independently of coronary artery disease, hypertension and valvular diseases, which may subsequently lead to heart failure. Several structural features underlie the development of diabetic cardiomyopathy and eventual diabetes-induced heart failure. Pathological cardiac fibrosis (interstitial and perivascular), in addition to capillary rarefaction and myocardial apoptosis, are particularly noteworthy. Sex differences in the incidence, development and presentation of diabetes, heart failure and interstitial myocardial fibrosis have been identified. Nevertheless, therapeutics specifically targeting diabetes-associated cardiac fibrosis remain lacking and treatment approaches remain the same regardless of patient sex or the co-morbidities that patients may present. This review addresses the observed anti-fibrotic effects of newer glucose-lowering therapies and traditional cardiovascular disease treatments, in the diabetic myocardium (from both preclinical and clinical contexts). Furthermore, any known sex differences in these treatment effects are also explored.

The Cardioprotective Effects of Semaglutide Exceed Those of Dietary Weight Loss in Mice With HFpEF. JACC Basic Transl Sci 2023; 8:1298-1314.

Abstract
Obesity-related heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) has become a well-recognized HFpEF subphenotype. Targeting the unfavorable cardiometabolic profile may represent a rational treatment strategy. This study investigated semaglutide, a glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist that induces significant weight loss in patients with obesity and/or type 2 diabetes mellitus and has been associated with improved cardiovascular outcomes. In a mouse model of HFpEF that was caused by advanced aging, female sex, obesity, and type 2 diabetes mellitus, semaglutide, compared with weight loss induced by pair feeding, improved the cardiometabolic profile, cardiac structure, and cardiac function. Mechanistically, transcriptomic, and proteomic analyses revealed that semaglutide improved left ventricular cytoskeleton function and endothelial function and restores protective immune responses in visceral adipose tissue. Strikingly, treatment with semaglutide induced a wide array of favorable cardiometabolic effects beyond the effect of weight loss by pair feeding. Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists may therefore represent an important novel therapeutic option for treatment of HFpEF, especially when obesity-related.

Effects of Incretin-Based Treatment on the Diastolic (Dys)Function in Patients with Uncontrolled Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: A Prospective Study with 1-Year Follow-Up. Diagnostics (Basel) 2023; 13:2817.

Abstract
Left ventricular diastolic dysfunction (DD) is a subclinical cardiac abnormality in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) that can progress to heart failure (HF) and increase cardiovascular risk. This prospective study evaluated the DD in T2DM patients without atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease after one year of incretin-based drugs added to standard treatment. Of the 138 enrolled patients (49.30% male, mean age 57.86 ± 8.82, mean T2DM history 5 years), 71 were started on dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor sitagliptin/saxagliptin, 21 on glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist exenatide, and 46 formed the control group (metformin and sulphonylurea/acarbose). At baseline, 71 patients had grade 1 DD, another 12 had grade 2 and 3 DD, and 15 had indeterminate DD. After one year, DD was evidenced in 50 cases. Diastolic function improved in 9 cases, and 27 patients went from grade 1 to indeterminate DD. The active group benefited more, especially patients treated with exenatide; their metabolic and inflammation profiles also improved the most. An in-depth analysis of echocardiographic parameters and paraclinical results in the context of literature data justifies the conclusion that early assessment of diastolic function in T2DM patients is necessary and the benefits of affordable incretin-based treatment may extend to subclinical cardiovascular manifestations such as DD.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to determine the effect of liraglutide on cardiac function in individuals with type 2 diabetes. The present meta-analysis aimed to identify studies testing liraglutide in individuals with type 2 diabetes. We included observational and randomized controlled trials comparing liraglutide with placebo or any other drug alone or in combination with other drugs. A comprehensive search was carried out using online databases including PubMed, Google Scholar, and Cochrane Library to find relevant studies from inception to June 30, 2023, according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) guidelines. Key terms used to search for relevant studies included "liraglutide," "cardiac function," and "type 2 diabetes," along with their synonyms and Medical Subject Heading (MeSH) terms. The outcomes assessed in the present meta-analysis included diastolic cardiac function and systolic cardiac function. For diastolic cardiac function, we assessed the E to A (E/A) ratio and the E to Ea (E/Ea) ratio. To assess the impact of liraglutide on systolic function, we assessed stroke volume in mL, left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) in %, cardiac output in L/min, and cardiac index in L/min/m². A total of seven studies were included, with a pooled sample size of 307 individuals (160 in the liraglutide group and 147 in the control group). The results indicated that liraglutide significantly reduced the E/A ratio (mean difference [MD]: -0.22, 95% CI: -0.38 to -0.06, p-value: 0.008) and E/Ea ratio (MD: -0.76, 95% confidence interval (CI): -1.39 to -0.12, p-value: 0.02, suggesting a potential clinical benefit on ventricular diastolic function. However, there was no significant impact on LVEF (MD: 0.46, 95% CI: -3.13 to 4.05, p-value: 0.80), cardiac output (MD: 0.05, 95% CI: -0.39 to 0.49), cardiac index (MD: 0.07, 95% CI: -0.18 to 0.32), and stroke volume (MD: -5.34, 95% CI: -14.81 to 4.12), indicating that liraglutide did not improve systolic function.

Abstract
Despite the availability of many glucose-lowering drugs, patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) often do not achieve the desired effect, and cardiovascular complications remain the leading cause of death in this group of patients. Recently, more and more attention has been paid to the properties of drugs, with particular emphasis on the possibility of reducing cardiovascular risk. One of them is liraglutide, which belongs to long-acting analogs of glucagon-like peptides-1 (GLP-1); it imitates incretins and causes an increase in insulin secretion. The current study focused on analyzing the efficacy and safety of liraglutide, as well as its impact on microvascular and cardiovascular outcomes in the treatment of patients with T2DM. Hyperglycemia-induced endothelial dysfunction, which is known to play a key role in maintaining cardiovascular homeostasis, is common in diabetes. Liraglutide reduces endothelial dysfunction by reversing damage to endothelial cells. By reducing the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), thereby affecting Bax, Bcl-2 protein levels, and restoring signaling pathways, Liraglutide reduces oxidative stress, inflammation, and prevents endothelial cell apoptosis. Liraglutide has beneficial effects on the cardiovascular system; patients with high cardiovascular risk particularly benefit from treatment, as it reduces their major adverse cardiovascular event (MACE) rate, which takes into account cardiovascular death, stroke, and non-fatal myocardial infarction. Liraglutide reduces the occurrence and progression of nephropathy, which is one of the most common microvascular complications of diabetes.

Differences in Inflammatory Pathways Between Dutch South Asians vs Dutch Europids With Type 2 Diabetes. J Clin Endocrinol Metab 2023; 108:931-940.

Abstract
CONTEXT South Asian individuals are more prone to develop type 2 diabetes (T2D) coinciding with earlier complications than Europids. While inflammation plays a central role in the development and progression of T2D, this factor is still underexplored in South Asians. OBJECTIVE This work aimed to study whether circulating messenger RNA (mRNA) transcripts of immune genes are different between South Asian compared with Europid patients with T2D. METHODS A secondary analysis was conducted of 2 randomized controlled trials of Dutch South Asian (n = 45; age: 55 ± 10 years, body mass index [BMI]: 29 ± 4 kg/m2) and Dutch Europid (n = 44; age: 60 ± 7 years, BMI: 32 ± 4 kg/m2) patients with T2D. Main outcome measures included mRNA transcripts of 182 immune genes (microfluidic quantitative polymerase chain reaction; Fluidigm Inc) in fasted whole-blood, ingenuity pathway analyses (Qiagen). RESULTS South Asians, compared to Europids, had higher mRNA levels of B-cell markers (CD19, CD79A, CD79B, CR2, CXCR5, IGHD, MS4A1, PAX5; all fold change > 1.3, false discovery rate [FDR] < 0.008) and interferon (IFN)-signaling genes (CD274, GBP1, GBP2, GBP5, FCGR1A/B/CP, IFI16, IFIT3, IFITM1, IFITM3, TAP1; all FC > 1.2, FDR < 0.05). In South Asians, the IFN signaling pathway was the top canonical pathway (z score 2.6; P < .001) and this was accompanied by higher plasma IFN-γ levels (FC = 1.5, FDR = 0.01). Notably, the ethnic difference in gene expression was larger for women (20/182 [11%]) than men (2/182 [1%]). CONCLUSION South Asian patients with T2D show a more activated IFN-signaling pathway compared to Europid patients with T2D, which is more pronounced in women than men. We speculate that a more activated IFN-signaling pathway may contribute to the more rapid progression of T2D in South Asian compared with Europid individuals.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) is an endogenous incretin hormone. Liraglutide, a GLP-1 receptor agonist, can lower blood sugar by increasing insulin production and inhibiting the production of glucagon. This study researched the bioequivalence and safety of the test and reference drugs in healthy Chinese subjects. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Subjects (N = 28) were randomly divided into group A and group B at a ratio of 1:1 for a two-cycle cross-over study. There was single dose per cycle with subcutaneous injection of the test and reference drugs, respectively. The washout was set at 14 days. Plasma drug concentrations were detected by specific liquid chromatography and tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) assays. Statistical analysis of major pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters was conducted to assess drug bioequivalence. In addition, we evaluated the safety of the drugs throughout the trial. RESULTS The geometric mean ratios (GMRs) of Cmax, AUC0-t, and AUC0-∞ for the test and reference drugs were 107.11%, 106.56%, 106.09%, respectively. The 90% confidence intervals (CIs) were all within 80%-125%, meeting the bioequivalence standards. In addition, both had good safety in this study. CONCLUSION The study shows that the two drugs had similar bioequivalence and safety. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION DCTR: CTR20190914; ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT05029076.

Improvement of Left Ventricular Global Longitudinal Strain after 6-Month Therapy with GLP-1RAs Semaglutide and Dulaglutide in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: A Pilot Study. J Clin Med 2023; 12:jcm12041586. [PMID: 36836121 PMCID: PMC9962489 DOI: 10.3390/jcm12041586] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/22/2023] [Revised: 02/08/2023] [Accepted: 02/14/2023] [Indexed: 02/19/2023] Open
Abstract
(1) Background: Glucagone-Like Peptide-1 Receptor Agonists (GLP-1 RAs) (GLP-1 RAs) are incretine-based medications recommended in the treatment of type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (DM2) with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) or high or very high cardiovascular (CV) risk. However, knowledge of the direct mechanism of GLP-1 RAs on cardiac function is modest and not yet fully elucidated. Left ventricular (LV) Global Longitudinal Strain (GLS) with Speckle Tracking Echocardiography (STE) represents an innovative technique for the evaluation of myocardial contractility. (2) Methods: an observational, perspective, monocentric study was conducted in a cohort of 22 consecutive patients with DM2 and ASCVD or high/very high CV risk, enrolled between December 2019 and March 2020 and treated with GLP-1 RAs dulaglutide or semaglutide. The echocardiographic parameters of diastolic and systolic function were recorded at baseline and after six months of treatment. (3) Results: the mean age of the sample was 65 ± 10 years with a prevalence of the male sex (64%). A significant improvement in the LV GLS (mean difference: -1.4 ± 1.1%; p value < 0.001) was observed after six months of treatment with GLP-1 RAs dulaglutide or semaglutide. No relevant changes were seen in the other echocardiographic parameters. (4) Conclusions: six months of treatment with GLP-1 RAs dulaglutide or semaglutide leads to an improvement in the LV GLS in subjects with DM2 with and high/very high risk for ASCVD or with ASCVD. Further studies on larger populations and with a longer follow-up are warranted to confirm these preliminary results.

Effect of Glucagon-like Peptide-1 Receptor Agonists on Prognosis of Heart Failure and Cardiac Function: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials. Clin Ther 2023; 45:17-30. [PMID: 36604209 DOI: 10.1016/j.clinthera.2022.12.006] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 12.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/01/2022] [Revised: 12/06/2022] [Accepted: 12/09/2022] [Indexed: 01/04/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE Whether an antidiabetic drug, glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1RA), could improve the prognosis of heart failure and cardiac function remains controversial. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials to explore the influence of GLP-1RAs on heart failure in patients regardless of diabetes diagnosis. METHODS Literature in English from the PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library databases was searched from inception to July 2022. The study aim was to identify published, randomized, placebo-controlled trials testing GLP-1RAs in patients with or without diabetes. Outcomes were heart failure hospitalization, cardiac function, and structure measures. FINDINGS Twenty-two randomized controlled trials involving 61,412 patients are included in the meta-analysis. Overall, compared with the placebo group, GLP-1RA treatment could not significantly decrease heart failure hospitalization in patients with a history of heart failure (hazard ratio [HR], 1.07; 95% CI, 0.91 to 1.25; P = 0.422). Six-minute walking test distances (WMD, 19.08 m; 95% CI, 4.81 to 33.36; P = 0.01), E-wave (SMD, -0.40; 95% CI, -0.60 to -0.20; P < 0.001), early diastolic to late diastolic velocities ratio (WMD, -0.10; 95% CI, -0.18 to -0.02; P = 0.01), mitral inflow E velocity to tissue Doppler e' ratio (WMD, -0.97; 95% CI, -1.54 to -0.41; P < 0.001), and E-wave deceleration time (WMD, -9.96 milliseconds; 95% CI, -18.52 to -1.41; P = 0.02) increased significantly after administration of GLP-1RAs. However, GLP-1RAs do not significantly influence N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide levels (WMD, -20.02 pg/mL; 95% CI, -53.12 to 13.08; P = 0.24), Minnesota Living with Heart Failure Questionnaire quality of life scores (WMD, -1.08; 95% CI, -3.99 to 1.84; P = 0.47), or left ventricular ejection fractions (WMD, -0.37%; 95% CI, -1.19 to 0.46; P = 0.38). IMPLICATIONS GLP-1RAs did not reduce heart failure readmissions in patients with a history of heart failure and elevated N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide levels. Thus, the prognosis of heart failure was not improved, although GLP-1RAs did significantly improve left ventricular diastolic function in patients. PROSPERO identifier: CRD42021226231.

Abstract
People with type 2 diabetes (T2D) have a higher risk of cardiovascular (CV) disease (CVD) than those without. This increased risk begins with pre-diabetes, potentially 7-10 years before T2D is diagnosed. Selecting medication for patients with T2D should focus on reducing the risk of CVD and established CVD. Within the last decade, several antihyperglycemic agents with proven CV benefit have been approved for the treatment of hyperglycemia and for the prevention of primary and secondary CV events, including glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) and sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors. T2D treatment guidelines recommend that an antihyperglycemic agent with proven CV benefit should be used after metformin in patients with high risk of or established CVD, regardless of glycated hemoglobin levels. Despite the availability of antihyperglycemic agents with proven CV benefit, and guidelines on when to use them, less than one in four patients with T2D and CVD receive this type of therapy. These findings suggest a potential gap between current recommendations and clinical practice. This article reviews the approved agents with CV indications, with a focus on injectable GLP-1RAs, and their place in the T2D treatment paradigm according to current guidelines. We aim to provide primary healthcare providers with in-depth information on subsets of patients who would benefit from this type of therapy and when it should be initiated, taking into consideration safety and tolerability and other disease factors. An individualized treatment approach is increasingly recommended in the management of T2D, employing a shared decision-making strategy between patients and healthcare professionals.

Abstract
Background Liraglutide, glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist, has been investigated for safety and effectiveness for blood glucose (BG) control in a surgical setting. However, there are only a few studies specific to cardiac surgery patients. Aims To primarily compare perioperative 1) BG and 2) glycemic variability (GV) between added liraglutide and only insulin infusion in diabetes mellitus (DM) patients undergoing cardiac surgery. Setting and Design A randomized control trial was conducted in DM patients undergoing cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). Inclusion criteria were age 20-80 years and DM Type 2. Material and Methods : The recruited patients were randomly assigned to Group 1 (added liraglutide with insulin infusion) and Group 2 (insulin infusion). Insulin infusion was based on institutional protocol. Point of care testing (POCT) glucose was used for the adjustment of insulin and BG analysis. Continuous glucose monitor (CGM) was for GV analysis (using Standard deviation: SD). Statistics : t-test, Chi-square or Fisher-exact test, or Mann-Whitney U test. Results : Finally, 60 patients were in our study (Group 1 = 32 vs Group 2 = 28). Perioperative mean BG levels of Group 1 were significantly lower than Group 2 with a mean difference of 15.9 mg/dL. Nine patients (18.7% vs 10.7%, P = 0.384) had BG of 60-70 with mean BGs (109.1 vs 147.9, P = 0.001) in the morning. Thirteen patients (9.4% vs 35.7%, P = 0.025) had BG >180 mg/dL at the 1st operative hour. SDs were increasing, but lower SD of Group 1 were observed at the postoperative period. Mean of SDs at postoperative day 2 were 23.65 vs 32.79 mg/dL, P = 0.018. Conclusions : Liraglutide added with insulin infusion can attenuate perioperative BG and is beneficial in the aspect of lowering GV together with BG at the postoperative period in DM patients. Liraglutide can be applied in cardiac surgery but a rearrangement of time and dosage should be further investigated.

Glimepiride Use is Associated with Reduced Cardiovascular Mortality in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes and Chronic Heart Failure: A Prospective Cohort Study. Eur J Prev Cardiol 2022; 30:zwac312. [PMID: 36573717 DOI: 10.1093/eurjpc/zwac312] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/17/2022] [Revised: 12/04/2022] [Accepted: 12/23/2022] [Indexed: 02/17/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Glimepiride has good cardiovascular safety. However, whether glimepiride benefits clinical cardiovascular outcomes is unclear. METHODS A total of 21,451 inpatients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and chronic heart failure (CHF) were analyzed, including 638 who received glimepiride treatment and 20,813 who did not. Propensity score matching yielded 509 pairs (glimepiride and non-glimepiride groups), and both groups were followed up. Kaplan-Meier and Cox regression analyses were used to compare all-cause mortality, cardiovascular mortality, hospitalizations and emergency visits for heart failure, and hospitalizations for acute myocardial infarction or stroke. RESULTS During follow-up, the all-cause mortality (adjusted hazard ratio [HR], 0.47; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.35-0.63; P < 0.001), cardiovascular mortality (adjusted HR, 0.34; 95% CI, 0.24-0.48; P < 0.001), and number of hospitalizations and emergency visits for heart failure (adjusted HR, 0.42; 95% CI, 0.36-0.50; P < 0.001) and hospitalizations for acute myocardial infarction or stroke (adjusted HR, 0.53; 95% CI, 0.38-0.73; P < 0.001) were significantly lower in the glimepiride group; the conclusion remained similar in all subgroups. Furthermore, high-dose glimepiride use (2-4 mg/day) was associated with lower cardiovascular mortality than low-dose (1 mg/day) (adjusted HR, 0.55; 95% CI, 0.31-0.99; P = 0.047). Glimepiride exhibited good molecular docking with soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH) and increased the level epoxyeicosatrienoic acid (EET). CONCLUSIONS Long-term continuous glimepiride use is associated with better survival, fewer hospitalizations and emergency visits for heart failure, and fewer hospitalizations for acute myocardial infarction or stroke in patients with T2D and CHF. High-dose glimepiride has greater cardiovascular protective advantages than low-dose glimepiride. The cardiovascular protective effect of glimepiride may be related to the EET level increase through sEH inhibition.

Abstract
Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is a common clinical syndrome frequently seen in elderly patients, the incidence of which is steadily increasing due to an ageing population and the increasing incidence of diseases, such as diabetes, hypertension, obesity, chronic renal failure, and so on. It is a multifactorial disease with different phenotypic aspects that share left ventricular diastolic dysfunction, and is the cause of about 50% of hospitalizations for heart failure in the Western world. Due to the complexity of the disease, no specific therapies have been identified for a long time. Sodium-Glucose Co-Transporter 2 Inhibitors (SGLT2-Is) and Glucagon-Like Peptide Receptor Agonists (GLP-1 RAs) are antidiabetic drugs that have been shown to positively affect heart and kidney diseases. For SGLT2-Is, there are precise data on their potential benefits in heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) as well as in HFpEF; however, insufficient evidence is available for GLP-1 RAs. This review addresses the current knowledge on the cardiac effects and potential benefits of combined therapy with SGLT2-Is and GLP-1RAs in patients with HFpEF.

Abstract
Arterial hypertension represents an important risk factor for the development of cardiac, vascular and renal events, predisposing to heart failure, acute coronary syndromes, peripheral artery disease, stroke, and chronic renal disease. Arterial hypertension leads to the development of subclinical hypertension mediated organ damage (HMOD) which has prognostic relevance and may influence the choice of treatment options. Alterations of cardiac structure and function represent the more widely assessed form of HMOD. This manuscript will focus on the diagnostic opportunities, prognostic significance and treatment of diastolic dysfunction alterations.

Abstract
Background Diabetic cardiomyopathy is one of the most life-threatening diabetic complications. However, the previous studies only discuss a particular aspect or characteristic of DCM, the current state and trends were explored by limited research. We aimed to perform a systemically bibliometric study of DCM research progress status in the past decade, visualize the internal conceptual structure and potential associations, and further explore the prospective study trends. Methods Articles related to DCM published from January 2012 to December 2021 were collected in the Web of Science core collection (WoSCC) database on June 24, 2022. We exported all bibliographic records, including titles, abstracts, keywords, authorship, institutions, addresses, publishing sources, references, citation times, and year of publication. In addition, the journal Impact Factor and Hirsch index were obtained from the Journal Citation Report. We conducted the data screening, statistical analysis, and visualization via the Bibliometrix R package. VOS viewer software was employed to generate the collaboration network map among countries and institutions for better performance in visualization. Results In total, 1,887 original research articles from 2012 to 2021 were identified. The number of annual publications rapidly increased from 107 to 278, and a drastic increase in citation times was observed in 2017–2019. As for global contributions, the United States was the most influential country with the highest international collaboration, while China was the most productive country. Professor Cai Lu was the most prolific author. Shandong University published the most articles. Cardiovascular Diabetology journal released the most DCM-related articles. “Metabolic Stress-induced Activation of FoxO1 Triggers Diabetic Cardiomyopathy in Mice” Battiprolu PK et al., J Clin Invest, 2012. was the most top-cited article regarding local citations. The top three keywords in terms of frequency were apoptosis, oxidative stress, and fibrosis. The analysis of future topic trends indicated that “Forkhead box protein O1,” “Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction,” “Dapagliflozin,” “Thioredoxin,” “Mitochondria dysfunction,” “Glucose,” “Pyroptosis,” “Cardiac fibroblast” and “Long non-coding RNA” could be promising hotspots. Conclusion This study provides meaningful insights into DCM, which is expected to assist cardiologists and endocrinologists in exploring frontiers and future research directions in the domain through a refined and concise summary.

Front Cardiovasc Med 2022; 9:1019120. [PMID: 36277800 PMCID: PMC9581215 DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2022.1019120] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/14/2022] [Accepted: 09/20/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Aims At present, the effects of Glucagon-Like Peptide 1 Receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) on arrhythmia in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and myocardial infarction (MI) are still unclear. Hence, this systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to investigate this association. Methods and results PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science were searched from inception to 30 April 2022. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that compared GLP-1RAs with placebo and met the critical criterion of a proportion of patients with T2DM and MI > 30% were included to verify our purpose indirectly. The outcomes of interest included atrial arrhythmias, ventricular arrhythmias, atrioventricular block (AVB), sinus arrhythmia, and cardiac arrest. Relative risk (RR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) were pooled using a random-effects model. We included five RCTs with altogether 31,314 patients. In these trials, the highest proportion of patients with T2DM and MI was 82.6%, while the lowest was 30.7%. Compared to placebo, GLP-1RAs were associated with a lower risk of atrial arrhythmias (RR 0.81, 95% CI 0.70-0.95). There was no significant difference in the risk of ventricular arrhythmias (RR 1.26, 95% CI 0.87-1.80), AVB (RR 0.95, 95% CI 0.63-1.42), sinus arrhythmia (RR 0.62, 95% CI 0.26-1.49), and cardiac arrest (RR 0.97, 95% CI 0.52-1.83) between groups. Conclusion GLP-1RAs may be associated with reduced risk for atrial arrhythmias, which seems more significant for patients with T2DM combined with MI. More studies are needed to clarify the definitive anti-arrhythmic role of this drug.

Abstract
Heart failure (HF) remains one of the cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) associated with a high unmet medical need due to high morbidity and mortality rates and lack of efficacious interventions. HF is closely related to cardiometabolic diseases such as diabetes, obesity and chronic kidney disease, and strategies that address most or all these intertwined conditions are desirable. Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) are approved for type 2 diabetes (T2D), and some are also indicated for reduction of the risk of atherosclerotic CVD in T2D and for weight management. As we summarise in this concise review, preliminary evidence suggests that the cardioprotective benefits of GLP-1 RAs may also extend to HF. The most robust clinical evidence arguably originates from the large cardiovascular outcomes trials (CVOTs) completed for most GLP-1 RAs, of which the latest showed a significant relative risk reduction (RRR) of 39% (HR) with once-weekly efpeglenatide on HF requiring hospitalisation, corroborating a meta-analysis which found a significant RRR across eight GLP-1 RA CVOTs of 11%. Further, although incompletely described, multiple studies are available to provide insights into the mechanistic underpinnings, which appear to be associated mostly with indirect cardioprotective benefits owing to the ability of GLP-1 RAs to address hyperglycaemia, and reduce body weight, and, amongst others, inflammation. In sum, current evidence positions GLP-1 RAs as a potential cardioprotective strategy in HF, with HF with preserved ejection fraction emerging as the clinically most relevant phenotype for the drug class, especially when occurring in people with obesity with and without diabetes.

Abstract
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death in the world. In 2019, 550 million people were suffering from CVD and 18 million of them died as a result. Most of them had associated risk factors such as high fasting glucose, which caused 134 million deaths, and obesity, which accounted for 5.02 million deaths. Diabesity, a combination of type 2 diabetes and obesity, contributes to cardiac, metabolic, inflammation and neurohumoral changes that determine cardiac dysfunction (diabesity-related cardiomyopathy). Epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) is distributed around the myocardium, promoting myocardial inflammation and fibrosis, and is associated with an increased risk of heart failure, particularly with preserved systolic function, atrial fibrillation and coronary atherosclerosis. In fact, several hypoglycaemic drugs have demonstrated a volume reduction of EAT and effects on its metabolic and inflammation profile. However, it is necessary to improve knowledge of the diabesity pathophysiologic mechanisms involved in the development and progression of cardiovascular diseases for comprehensive patient management including drugs to optimize glucometabolic control. This review presents the mechanisms of diabesity associated with cardiovascular disease and their therapeutic implications.

Abstract
New antidiabetic therapy that includes sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors, glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor (GLP-1R) agonists, and dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP-4) inhibitors showed significant benefit on cardiovascular outcomes in patients with and without type 2 diabetes mellitus, and this was particularly confirmed for SGLT2 inhibitors in subjects with heart failure (HF) with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). Their role on patients with HF with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is still not elucidated, but encouraging results coming from the clinical studies indicate their beneficial role. The role of GLP-1R agonists and particularly DPP-4 inhibitors is less clear and debatable. Findings from the meta-analyses are sending positive message about the use of GLP-1R agonists in HFrEF therapy and revealed the improvement of left ventricular (LV) diastolic function in HFpEF. Nevertheless, the relevant medical societies still consider their effect as neutral or insufficiently investigated in HF patients. The impact of DPP-4 inhibitors in HF is the most controversial due to conflicting data that range from negative impact and increased risk of hospitalization due to HF, throughout neutral effect, to beneficial influence on LV diastolic dysfunction. However, this is a very heterogeneous group of medications and some professional societies made clear discrepancy between saxagliptin that might increase risk of HF hospitalization and those DPP-4 inhibitors that have no effect on hospitalization. The aim of this review is to summarize current clinical evidence about the effect of new antidiabetic medications on LV diastolic function and their potential benefits in HFpEF patients.

Abstract
With the rapid development of society, the incidence of metabolic syndrome (MS) is increasing rapidly. Evidence indicated that patients diagnosed with MS usually suffered from cardiomyopathy, called metabolic syndrome–associated cardiomyopathy (MSC). The clinical characteristics of MSC included cardiac hypertrophy and diastolic dysfunction, followed by heart failure. Despite many studies on this topic, the detailed mechanisms are not clear yet. As the center of cellular metabolism, mitochondria are crucial for maintaining heart function, while mitochondria dysfunction plays a vital role through mechanisms such as mitochondrial energy deprivation, calcium disorder, and ROS (reactive oxygen species) imbalance during the development of MSC. Accordingly, in this review, we will summarize the characteristics of MSC and especially focus on the mechanisms related to mitochondria. In addition, we will update new therapeutic strategies in this field.

Abstract
AIMS Glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RA) decrease the risk of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE). However, their influence on the risk of heart failure (HHF) hospitalization is marginal, which is unexpected given their benefits on cardiometabolic risk, especially on bodyweight reduction. This meta-analysis aimed to map the effects of GLP-1RA on N-terminal pro-BNP. METHODS AND RESULTS We retrieved from a Medline and Embase all randomized trials comparing GLP-1RA with placebo, reporting NT-proBNP concentrations. The primary outcome was the change in N-terminal pro-BNP values from baseline to end-of-treatment with GLP-1RA versus placebo (reported as standard deviations, SD). We included nine trials (543 patients in active treatment and 536 in placebo). We observed significantly greater reductions in N-terminal pro-BNP with GLP-1RA versus placebo (-0.14 SD; 95% CI -0.27; -0.01; p = 0.03). Upon meta-regression, no modifying effect of age, HbA1c, and body mass index were observed, nor was any meta-correlation between the change in NT-proBNP and the change in HbA1c or body weight. CONCLUSIONS GLP-1RA can significantly decrease N-terminal pro-BNP. This effect was independent of baseline age, body weight, and metabolic control.

Effects of liraglutide vs. lifestyle changes on soluble suppression of tumorigenesis-2 (sST2) and galectin-3 in obese subjects with prediabetes or type 2 diabetes after comparable weight loss. Cardiovasc Diabetol 2022; 21:36. [PMID: 35277168 PMCID: PMC8917620 DOI: 10.1186/s12933-022-01469-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/08/2021] [Accepted: 02/18/2022] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Soluble suppression of tumorigenesis-2 (sST2) and galectin (Gal)-3 are two biomarkers related to inflammation, metabolic disturbances and to myocardial fibrosis that characterize several cardiac pathological conditions. Increased circulating levels of these molecules have been associated with risk of cardiovascular death. Treatment with liraglutide, a glucagon-like peptide 1 analog, is associated with weight loss, improved glycemic control, and reduced cardiovascular risk. We wanted to assess (I) potential differences between subjects with prediabetes or type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and healthy controls in sST2 and Gal-3 circulating levels, and their relationship with glycemic control and markers of beta cell function and myocardial injury; (II) whether liraglutide treatment modulates these markers in subjects with prediabetes or early T2DM independently of weight loss; (III) whether baseline levels of any of these two molecules may predict the response to liraglutide treatment. METHODS Forty metformin-treated obese subjects (BMI ≥ 30) with prediabetes [impaired fasting glucose (IFG) or impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) or both (n = 23)] or newly diagnosed T2DM (n = 17), were randomized to liraglutide or lifestyle counseling until achieving a comparable weight loss (7% of initial body weight). Thirteen subjects were enrolled as healthy controls for baseline sST2 and Gal-3 levels. RESULTS Baseline sST2 levels were comparable between controls and obese patients (p = 0.79) whereas Gal-3 levels were significantly higher in patients as compared to controls (p < 0.001). Liraglutide treatment, but not weight loss achieved by lifestyle counseling, decreased plasma sST2 levels (- 9%, beta = - 14.9, standard deviation 6.9, p = 0.037) while Gal-3 levels did not change. A reduction in serum hs-Troponin I was observed after intervention, due to a 19% (p = 0.29) increase in the lifestyle arm, and a 25% decrease (p = 0.033) in the liraglutide arm (between-group difference p = 0.083). Lower baseline Gal-3 levels predicted a better improvement in beta cell function after liraglutide treatment. CONCLUSIONS Liraglutide-induced reduction in sST2 and possibly hs-TnI suggests that in obese patients with prediabetes or early T2DM this drug may have a positive effect on (cardiac) fibrosis, whereas plasma level of Gal-3 before liraglutide initiation may predict response to the drug in terms of beta cell function improvement.

Abstract
Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction is a growing epidemic and accounts for half of all patients with heart failure. Increasing prevalence, morbidity, and clinical inertia have spurred a rethinking of the pathophysiology of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction. Unlike heart failure with reduced ejection fraction, heart failure with preserved ejection fraction has distinct clinical phenotypes. The obese-diabetic phenotype is the most often encountered phenotype in clinical practice and shares the greatest burden of morbidity and mortality. Left ventricular remodeling plays a major role in its pathophysiology. Understanding the interplay of obesity, diabetes mellitus, and inflammation in the pathophysiology of left ventricular remodeling may help in the discovery of new therapeutic targets to improve clinical outcomes in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction. Anti-diabetic agents like glucagon-like-peptide 1 analogs and sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 are promising therapeutic modalities for the obese-diabetic phenotype of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction and aggressive weight loss via lifestyle or bariatric surgery is still key to reverse adverse left ventricular remodeling. This review focuses on the obese-diabetic phenotype of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction highlighting the interaction between obesity, diabetes, and coronary microvascular dysfunction in the development and progression of left ventricular remodeling. Recent therapeutic advances are reviewed.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a major public health concern with a rising prevalence. Although sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) and glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) have shown the respective favorable effects on reducing the occurrence of AF/atrial flutter (AFL), comparative protective AF/AFL effects between above 2 novel antidiabetic agents remain unavailable. Thus, we aimed to evaluate the comparative efficacy of SGLT2is and GLP-1RAs in reducing the risk of AF/AFL in patients with type 2 diabetes and estimate relative rankings of interventions. PubMed, Embase, and ClinicalTrials.gov were searched up to December 1, 2020. All available randomized controlled trials comparing SGLT2is and GLP-1RAs with one another or placebo in patients with type 2 diabetes were included. Pooled results were shown as risk ratios (RRs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs). We used a frequentist network meta-analysis to evaluate the outcomes of interests. Thirty-six randomized controlled trials including 85,701 participants with type 2 diabetes were identified. Compared with placebo, both SGLT2is (RR: 0.82, 95% CI, 0.68-0.99) and GLP-1RAs (RR: 0.86, 95% CI, 0.76-0.97; RR long-acting ones: 0.87, 95% CI, 0.76-0.99; RR short-acting ones: 0.72, 95% CI, 0.45-1.14) significantly reduced AF/AFL risk. No significant difference between SGLT2is and GLP-1RAs was noted (RR: 0.95, 95% CI, 0.76-1.2). Compared with placebo, results from the analysis showed an RR of 0.72 (95% CI, 0.45-1.14) for short-acting GLP-1RAs and 0.87 (95% CI, 0.76-0.99) for long-acting GLP-1RAs in reducing the risk of AF/AFL. Compared with placebo, both SGLT2is and GLP-1RAs possessed favorable effects on reducing the risk of AF/AFL. However, no difference was observed when comparisons were made between them. In addition, long-acting ones may confer a more pronounced AF/AFL reduction benefit compared with placebo.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death in people with diabetes. Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DC) is an important complication of diabetes and represents a distinct subtype of heart failure that occurs in absence of cardiovascular diseases. Chronic hyperglycemia and hyperinsulinemia along with insulin resistance and inflammatory milieu are the main mechanisms involved in the pathophysiology of DC. Changes in lifestyle favoring healthy dietary patterns and physical activity, combined with more innovative anti-diabetes therapies, are the current treatment strategies to safeguard the cardiovascular system. This review aims at providing an updated comprehensive overview of clinical, pathogenetic, and molecular aspects of DC, with a focus on the effects of anti-hyperglycemic drugs on the prevention of pump dysfunction and consequently on cardiovascular health in type 2 diabetes.

Abstract
As the worldwide prevalence of diabetes and obesity continues to rise, so does the risk of debilitating cardiovascular complications. Given the significant association between diabetes and cardiovascular risk, the actions of glucose-lowering therapies within the cardiovascular system must be clearly defined. Incretin hormones, including GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide 1) and GIP (glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide), are gut hormones secreted in response to nutrient intake that maintain glycemic control by regulating insulin and glucagon release. GLP-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1Ras) and dipeptidyl peptidase 4 inhibitors (DPP-4is) represent two drug classes used for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) that improve glucose regulation through stimulating the actions of gut-derived incretin hormones or inhibiting their degradation, respectively. Despite both classes acting to potentiate the incretin response, the potential cardioprotective benefits afforded by GLP-1Ras have not been recapitulated in cardiovascular outcome trials (CVOTs) evaluating DPP-4is. This review provides insights through discussion of clinical and preclinical studies to illuminate the physiological mechanisms that may underlie and reconcile observations from GLP-1Ra and DPP-4i CVOTs. Furthermore, critical knowledge gaps and areas for further investigation will be emphasized to guide future studies and, ultimately, facilitate improved clinical management of cardiovascular disease in T2DM.

Dysregulated Epicardial Adipose Tissue as a Risk Factor and Potential Therapeutic Target of Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction in Diabetes. Biomolecules 2022; 12:biom12020176.

Abstract
Cardiovascular (CV) disease and heart failure (HF) are the leading cause of mortality in type 2 diabetes (T2DM), a metabolic disease which represents a fast-growing health challenge worldwide. Specifically, T2DM induces a cluster of systemic metabolic and non-metabolic signaling which may promote myocardium derangements such as inflammation, fibrosis, and myocyte stiffness, which represent the hallmarks of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). On the other hand, several observational studies have reported that patients with T2DM have an abnormally enlarged and biologically transformed epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) compared with non-diabetic controls. This expanded EAT not only causes a mechanical constriction of the diastolic filling but is also a source of pro-inflammatory mediators capable of causing inflammation, microcirculatory dysfunction and fibrosis of the underlying myocardium, thus impairing the relaxability of the left ventricle and increasing its filling pressure. In addition to representing a potential CV risk factor, emerging evidence shows that EAT may guide the therapeutic decision in diabetic patients as drugs such as metformin, glucagon-like peptide‑1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists and sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2-Is), have been associated with attenuation of EAT enlargement.

Abstract
Pathologic cardiac remodeling and dysfunction are the most common complications of type 2 diabetes. Physical exercise is important in inhibiting myocardial pathologic remodeling and restoring cardiac function in diabetes. The mitochondrial-derived peptide MOTS-c has exercise-like effects by improving insulin resistance, combatting hyperglycemia, and reducing lipid accumulation. We investigated the effects and transcriptomic profiling of MOTS-c and aerobic exercise on cardiac properties in a rat model of type 2 diabetes which was induced by feeding a high fat high sugar diet combined with an injection of a low dose of streptozotocin. Both aerobic exercise and MOTS-c treatment reduced abnormalities in cardiac structure and function. Transcriptomic function enrichment analysis revealed that MOTS-c had exercise-like effects on inflammation, myocardial apoptosis, angiogenesis and endothelial cell proliferation and migration, and showed that the NRG1-ErbB4 pathway might be an important component in both MOTS-c and exercise induced attenuation of cardiac dysfunction in diabetes. Moreover, our findings suggest that MOTS-c activates NRG1-ErbB4 signaling and mimics exercise-induced cardio-protection in diabetes.

Abstract
Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a pathophysiological condition of cardiac structure and function changes in diabetic patients without coronary artery disease, hypertension, and other types of heart diseases. DCM is not uncommon in people with diabetes, which increases the risk of heart failure. However, the treatment is scarce, and the prognosis is poor. Since 1972, one clinical study after another on DCM has been conducted. However, the complex phenotype of DCM still has not been fully revealed. This dilemma hinders the pace of understanding the essence of DCM and makes it difficult to carry out penetrating clinical or basic research. This review summarizes the literature on DCM over the last 40 years and discusses the overall perspective of DCM, phase of progression, potential clinical indicators, diagnostic and screening criteria, and related randomized controlled trials to understand DCM better.

Abstract
Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a highly morbid condition. PH due to left heart disease (PH-LHD) has no specific therapies and pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) has substantial residual risk despite several approved therapies. Multiple lines of experimental evidence link metabolic dysfunction to the pathogenesis and outcomes in PH-LHD and PAH, and novel metabolic agents hold promise to improve outcomes in these populations. The antidiabetic sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP1) agonists targeting metabolic dysfunction and improve outcomes in patients with LHD but have not been tested specifically in patients with PH. The angiotensin receptor/neprilysin inhibitors (ARNIs) produce significant improvements in cardiac hemodynamics and may improve metabolic dysfunction that could benefit the pulmonary circulation and right ventricle function. On the basis of promising preclinical work with these medications and clinical rationale, we explore the potential of SGLT2 inhibitors, GLP1 agonists, and ARNIs as therapies for both PH-LHD and PAH.

Abstract
Although there is an established bidirectional relationship between heart failure with reduced ejection fraction and liver disease, the association between heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) and liver diseases, such as nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), has not been well explored. In this paper, the authors provide an in-depth review of the relationship between HFpEF and NAFLD and propose 3 NAFLD-related HFpEF phenotypes (obstructive HFpEF, metabolic HFpEF, and advanced liver fibrosis HFpEF). The authors also discuss diagnostic challenges related to the concurrent presence of NAFLD and HFpEF and offer several treatment options for NAFLD-related HFpEF phenotypes. The authors propose that NAFLD-related HFpEF should be recognized as a distinct HFpEF phenotype.
