Empagliflozin thus ameliorates the ‘cardiac energy-deficient’ state, regresses adverse myocardial cellular remodelling, and improves cardiac function, offering therapeutic opportunities to prevent or modulate heart failure in T2D (Diabetes) Overall, the results of CVOTs published so far seems to suggest that the gap between the cardiorenal benefits of SGLT-2 and GLP-1RA is narrowing (Cardiovascular Diabetology) Low glycaemia increases risk of frailty and functional decline in older people with type 2 diabetes. Management should minimise incidence of low glycaemia in these patients (Diabetes Research and Clinical Practice) A low eGDR (a measure of insulin resistance) is associated with an increased risk of stroke and death in individuals with T2D. The relative attributed risk was most important for hypertension (Cardiovascular Diabetology) In this study, a high HbA1c did not reduce the occurrence of nocturnal hypoglycemia, and low HbA1c was not associated with the highest TIR. Optimal personalization of glycemic control requires the use of newer tools, including CGM-derived parameters (Diabetes Care) This study supports the renoprotective benefit of real-world SGLT-2i use irrespective of patient baseline kidney function (Cardiovascular Diabetology)
