Glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonist use is associated with reduced risk for glaucoma

Jacob Sterling et al.

Summary: This study examined the impact of GLP-1R agonist exposure on glaucoma risk using an insurance claims database. The findings suggest that there is no significant association between GLP-1R agonist use and the new diagnosis of primary open-angle glaucoma, glaucoma suspect, or low-tension glaucoma.

Effects of oral antidiabetic drugs and glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists on left ventricular diastolic function in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus: a systematic review and network meta-analysis

Satoshi Ida et al.

Summary: The study compared the effects of oral antidiabetic drugs (OADs) and glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) on left ventricular diastolic function in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus through network meta-analysis. It found that only liraglutide significantly improved left ventricular diastolic function compared to placebo and other OADs in patients with type 2 diabetes. This suggests potential benefits of liraglutide in preventing heart failure in type 2 diabetes patients.

Summary: SGLT2 inhibitors are effective in reducing major adverse cardiovascular events and hospitalizations in patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction, regardless of the presence of type 2 diabetes mellitus. The U.S. FDA has approved dapagliflozin for use in HFrEF patients, irrespective of their T2DM status, showing the potential for new treatment options in heart failure management.

Federico Rea et al.

Summary: This study aimed to assess and compare drug therapy persistence between patients treated with GLP1-RA and SGLT2-I therapy. By conducting a matched cohort study in the Lombardy Region, it was found that patients prescribed GLP1-RA exhibited better treatment persistence, especially those receiving once-weekly administration of GLP1-RA.

Suetonia C. Palmer et al.

Summary: This network meta-analysis evaluated the effectiveness of SGLT-2 inhibitors and GLP-1 receptor agonists in patients with type 2 diabetes at varying cardiovascular and renal risk levels. The study found that both classes of drugs lowered mortality and improved cardiovascular outcomes, with notable differences in effects between the two agents. Additional benefits and adverse effects varied across different risk groups.

Should metformin remain the first-line therapy for treatment of type 2 diabetes?

Chelsea Baker et al.

Summary: Metformin is commonly used as first-line treatment for type 2 diabetes, but recent studies suggest that other glucose-lowering medications may have additional benefits in certain populations. In high-risk patients, initiating newer medications with cardiovascular benefits should be considered regardless of glycemic control. Cost remains a significant factor in treatment decisions.

Lower risk of death and cardiovascular events in patients with diabetes initiating glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists or sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors: A real-world study in two Italian cohorts

Marta Baviera et al.

Summary: This observational cohort study in Italy compared the efficacy and safety of GLP-1RAs and SGLT2 inhibitors with other AHAs in large and unselected populations. The findings showed that GLP-1RAs and SGLT2 inhibitors were associated with lower rates of death, cardiovascular events, and heart failure compared to other AHAs, indicating their favorable effects in type 2 diabetes patients beyond those with cardiovascular disease.

Summary: Patients with T2DM and obesity are at high risk of developing CVD. GLP-1 RAs have shown to significantly reduce the risk of MACE in T2DM patients with obesity, while SGLT-2 inhibitors have a similar effect. Direct comparison between the two drugs did not show a significant difference, indicating the need for further studies to determine the superiority of GLP-1 RAs over SGLT-2 inhibitors.
