Introduction: None of the studies of type 2 diabetes (T2D) subtyping to date have used linked population-level data for incident and prevalent T2D, incorporating a diverse set of variables, explainable methods for cluster characterization, or adhered to an established framework. We aimed to develop and validate machine learning (ML)-informed subtypes for type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D) using nationally representative data.
Research Design And Methods: In population-based electronic health records (2006-2020; Clinical Practice Research Datalink) in individuals ≥18 years with incident T2D (n=420 448), we included factors (n=3787), including demography, history, examination, biomarkers and medications.
Article Synopsis
- Researchers studied the coexistence of heart failure (HF), type 2 diabetes (T2D), and chronic kidney disease (CKD) in a large population in England from 1998 to 2020 to understand their impact on patient outcomes and healthcare use.
- The study found that individuals with CKD combined with HF or T2D had a more severe risk profile and higher mortality rates compared to those with CKD and T2D alone, with varying incidences of developing a third condition.
- It highlights the need for better healthcare planning and monitoring due to the significant burden these comorbidities place on patients and healthcare systems.
Background: Cardiovascular and renal diseases (CVRD) are major causes of mortality in individuals with type 2 diabetes (T2D). Studies of lifetime risk have neither considered all CVRD together nor the relative contribution of major risk factors to combined disease burden.
Methods: In a population-based cohort study using national electronic health records, we studied 473,399 individuals with T2D in England 2007-2018.
Lower risk of hospitalization for heart failure, kidney disease and death with sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 inhibitors compared with dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors in type 2 diabetes regardless of prior cardiovascular or kidney disease: A retrospective cohort study in UK primary care.

Aim: To assess if sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) reduce the risk of all-cause mortality, cardiovascular death and hospitalization for heart failure (HF) or chronic kidney disease (CKD) to a greater extent than dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors (DPP4is) in people with type 2 diabetes (T2D) with or without established cardiovascular and/or renal disease (CVRD).
Methods: This retrospective cohort study propensity-matched 24 438 patients receiving an SGLT2i 1:1 to a patient receiving a DDP4i, stratified based on the presence of CVRD. The primary outcomes were the time to each of the following: all-cause mortality, cardiovascular death or hospitalization for HF, myocardial infarction, stroke and CKD.
Aims: We compared the new use of sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitor (SGLT2i) versus dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor (DPP4i) and the risk of cardiorenal disease, heart failure (HF) or chronic kidney disease (CKD), in patients with type 2 diabetes without a history of prevalent cardiovascular and renal disease, defined as cardiovascular and renal disease (CVRD) free, managed in routine clinical practice.
Materials And Methods: In this observational cohort study, patients were identified from electronic health records from England, Germany, Japan, Norway, South Korea and Sweden, during 2012-2018. In total, 1 006 577 CVRD-free new users of SGLT2i or DPP4i were propensity score matched 1:1.
Aims: To examine the manifestation of cardiovascular or renal disease (CVRD) in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) initially free from CVRD as well as the mortality risks associated with these diseases.
Methods: Patients free from CVRD were identified from healthcare records in England, Germany, Japan, the Netherlands, Norway and Sweden at a fixed date. CVRD manifestation was defined by first diagnosis of cardiorenal disease, or a stroke, myocardial infarction (MI) or peripheral artery disease (PAD) event.
Introduction: The aim of this study was to determine how recommendations of gynaecologists on surgical treatment for stress urinary incontinence (SUI) were influenced by patient characteristics.
Methods: Two hundred forty-five gynaecologists in the UK fully responded to an online questionnaire including 18 vignettes describing 7 clinical characteristics of women with SUI (age, body mass index, SUI type, previous SUI surgery, frequency of leakage, bother, physical status). The gynaecologists scored recommendations for surgery ranging from 1 'certainly not' to 5 'certainly yes'.
