Patients admitted with prediabetes and atrial fibrillation are at high risk for major adverse cardiac or cerebrovascular events independent of confounding variables. The shared pathophysiology between these three serious but common diseases and their association with atherosclerotic cardiovascular risk factors establish a vicious circle culminating in high atherogenicity. Because of that, it is of paramount importance to perform risk stratification of patients with prediabetes to define phenotypes that benefit from various interventions.

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a common and severe complication in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D). While inhibitors of the renin-angiotensin system remained for a long time the only medications that had proven nephroprotective effects, several other pharmacological classes also recently showed such a benefit : sodium-glucose cotransporter type 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors (gliflozins), glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (semaglutide), and mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (MRA, finerenone). This clinical vignette aims at explaining the pharmacotherapy strategy for a patient with T2D who presents a progressive CKD.

Introduction: The aim of this study is to use observational methods to evaluate reliability of evidence generated by a study of the effect of glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RA) on chronic lower respiratory disease (CLRD) outcomes among Type-2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients.
Research Design And Methods: We independently reproduced a study comparing effects of GLP-1RA versus dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors (DPP4-i) on CLRD outcomes among patients with T2DM and prior CLRD. We reproduced inputs and outputs using the original study data (national administrative claims) and evaluated the robustness of results in comparison to alternate design/analysis decisions.

Background: Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP1RAs) are widely used in manageing type 2 diabetes mellitus and weight control. Their potential in treating ageing-related diseases has been gaining attention in recent years. However, the long-term effects of GLP1RAs on these diseases have yet to be fully revealed.

Type 2 diabetes (T2D), the most common form, is marked by insulin resistance and β-cell failure. β-cell dysfunction under high-glucose-high-lipid (HG-HL) conditions is a key contributor to the progression of T2D. This study evaluates the comparative effects of 10 nM semaglutide, 10 nM tirzepatide, and 1 mM metformin, both alone and in combination, on INS-1 β-cell maintenance and function under HG-HL conditions.
