Association of glucose-lowering medications with cardiovascular outcomes: an umbrella review and evidence map
We examined the association between glucose-lowering medications and a broad range of cardiovascular outcomes, and assessed the strength of evidence for these associations.MethodsFor this umbrella review we searched PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane Library to identify systematic reviews and meta-analyses of randomised controlled trials examining the cardiovascular safety of glucose-lowering medications. Cardiovascular outcomes examined included major adverse cardiovascular events, cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, stroke, heart failure, unstable angina, and atrial fibrillation. For each meta-analysis, we estimat...

Effects of GLP-1 receptor agonists on neurological complications of diabetes
Rev Endocr Metab Disord. 2023 May 26. doi: 10.1007/s11154-023-09807-3. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTEmerging evidence suggests that treatment with glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) could be an interesting treatment strategy to reduce neurological complications such as stroke, cognitive impairment, and peripheral neuropathy. We performed a systematic review to examine the evidence concerning the effects of GLP-1 RAs on neurological complications of diabetes. The databases used were Pubmed, Scopus and Cochrane. We selected clinical trials which analysed the effect of GLP-1 RAs on stroke, cognitive impair...

Effect of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists on all-cause mortality and cardiovascular outcomes: A meta-analysis.
CONCLUSION: GLP1RA therapy when compared to placebo reduced all-cause mortality in high cardiovascular risk patients with type 2 diabetes. They did not impact cardiovascular mortality, nonfatal MI, nonfatal stroke, or heart failure hospitalizations. PMID: 28413990 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Clinical Impact of 5  Years of Liraglutide Treatment on Cardiovascular Risk Factors in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus in a Real-Life Setting in Italy: An Observational Study
ConclusionIn patients prolonging treatment with liraglutide for 5  years, the benefits in relation to metabolic control and CV risk factors are maintained. The UKPDS risk scores suggest that liraglutide is associated with a reduced CHD risk, but not with a reduced stroke risk.

The extra‐pancreatic effects of GLP‐1 receptor agonists: a focus on the cardiovascular, gastrointestinal and central nervous systems
Abstract The glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor agonists (GLP‐1RAs) exenatide and liraglutide have been shown to improve glycaemic control and beta‐cell function with a low risk of hypoglycaemia in people with type 2 diabetes. GLP‐1 receptors are also expressed in extra‐pancreatic tissues and trial data suggest GLP‐1RAs also have effects beyond their glycaemic actions. Preclinical studies using native GLP‐1 or GLP‐1RAs provide substantial evidence for cardioprotective effects, while clinical trial data have demonstrated beneficial actions on hypertension and dyslipidaemia in people with type 2 diabetes. Sig...

Cardiovascular safety of albiglutide in the Harmony programme: a meta-analysis
Publication date: Available online 11 August 2015 Source:The Lancet Diabetes & Endocrinology Author(s): Miles Fisher, Mark C Petrie, Philip D Ambery, Jill Donaldson, John J V McMurray, June Ye Background Albiglutide is a glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist, a new class of drugs used to treat type 2 diabetes. We did a prospective meta-analysis of the cardiovascular safety of albiglutide as stipulated by the US Food and Drug Administration recommendations for the assessment of new treatments for diabetes. Methods We did a meta-analysis of eight phase 3 trials and one phase 2b trial in which patients wer...
