Cardiovascular Safety in Type 2 Diabetes With Sulfonylureas as Second-line Drugs: A Nationwide Population-Based Comparative Safety Study
CONCLUSIONSOur findings contribute to the understanding that second-line SU for glucose lowering are unlikely to increase CV risk or all-cause mortality. Given their potent efficacy, microvascular benefits, cost effectiveness, and widespread use, this study supports that SU should remain a part of the global diabetes treatment portfolio.

Using Artificial Intelligence to Develop a Multivariate Model with a Machine Learning Model to Predict Complications in Mexican Diabetic Patients without Arterial Hypertension (National Nested Case-Control Study): Metformin and Elevated Normal Blood Pressure Are Risk Factors, and Obesity Is Protective
In conclusion, the results we have obtained show that artificial intelligence is a powerful and feasible tool to use for this type of study. However, we suggest that more studies be conducted to verify and elaborate upon our findings.PMID:36846513 | PMC:PMC9949947 | DOI:10.1155/2023/8898958

Metformin Directly Binds to MMP-9 to Improve Plaque Stability
J Cardiovasc Dev Dis. 2023 Jan 30;10(2):54. doi: 10.3390/jcdd10020054.ABSTRACTVulnerable atherosclerotic plaque rupture is the principal mechanism that accounts for myocardial infarction and stroke. High matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) expression and activity have been proven to lead to plaque instability. Metformin, a first-line treatment for type 2 diabetes, is beneficial to plaque vulnerability. However, the mechanism underlying its anti-atherogenic effect remains unclear. Molecular docking and surface plasmon resonance experiments showed that metformin directly interacts with MMP-9, and incubated MMP-9 overexpressin...

Why Are Cardiologists Not Prescribing the New Diabetes Medications?
Randomized clinical trials and guidelines from multiple societies have established significant cardiovascular (CV) outcome benefits of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) and glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D). Among patients with T2D, those with known CV disease and those at high risk who are receiving metformin have lower risks of death, myocardial infarction, and stroke if they are treated with GLP-1RAs, and those treated with SGLT2is have reduced risks of hospital admission for heart failure, CV mortality, and all-cause mortality.

First-Line Therapy for Type 2 Diabetes With Sodium-Glucose Cotransporter-2 Inhibitors and Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 Receptor Agonists : A Cost-Effectiveness Study
CONCLUSION: As first-line agents, SGLT2 inhibitors and GLP1 receptor agonists would improve type 2 diabetes outcomes, but their costs would need to fall by at least 70% to be cost-effective.PRIMARY FUNDING SOURCE: American Diabetes Association.PMID:36191315 | DOI:10.7326/M21-2941

Association of glucose-lowering drugs with incident stroke and transient ischaemic attacks in primary care patients with type 2 diabetes: disease analyzer database
ConclusionsTreatment with SGLT2 inhibitors or GLP-1 receptor agonists might reduce non-fatal stroke/TIA in persons with newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes.

People With Diabetes Are More Vulnerable to Heart Disease. How to Reduce the Risk
If you’ve been diagnosed with diabetes, know that you’ve got plenty of company. The American Diabetes Association (ADA) reports that in 2019, the most recent year for which data is available, 37.3 million adults in the U.S.—about 11.3% of the population—had the chronic condition, and that number continues to grow. Type 1 diabetes develops when the body isn’t able to produce insulin, and Type 2 occurs when the body doesn’t use insulin correctly. Type 2 is the most common form of diabetes, and when it’s uncontrolled, a person’s blood sugar can jump to dangerous levels that requ...

SGLT2 Inhibitors a Better First Drug in Type 2 Diabetes Than Metformin?
(MedPage Today) -- Using SGLT2 inhibitors in the first-line treatment of type 2 diabetes lowered some cardiovascular risk, a claims database study showed. The combined 12-month risk for myocardial infarction (MI), stroke, and death was similar...

Cardiovascular Outcomes in Patients Initiating First-Line Treatment of Type 2 Diabetes With Sodium-Glucose Cotransporter-2 Inhibitors Versus Metformin : A Cohort Study
CONCLUSION: As first-line T2D treatment, initiators receiving SGLT-2i showed a similar risk for MI/stroke/mortality, lower risk for HHF/mortality and HHF, and a similar safety profile except for an increased risk for genital infections compared with those receiving metformin.PRIMARY FUNDING SOURCE: Brigham and Women's Hospital and Harvard Medical School.PMID:35605236 | DOI:10.7326/M21-4012
