Cardiovascular events and all ‐cause mortality associated with sulfonylureas compared to other antihyperglycaemic drugs: A Bayesian meta‐analysis of survival data
ConclusionThis meta‐analysis shows an association between sulfonylurea therapy and a higher risk of major cardiovascular disease‐related events compared to other antihyperglycaemic drugs. Results of ongoing RCTs, which should be available in 2018, will provide definitive results on the risk of cardiovascular events and all‐cause mortality associated with sulfonylureas versus other antihyperglycaemic drugs.

Individualized prediction of the effect of angiotensin receptor blockade on renal and cardiovascular outcomes in patients with diabetic nephropathy
ConclusionsThe combined effects of ARBs on ESRD and CVD and mortality in patients with diabetic nephropathy vary considerably between patients. A substantial proportion of patients remain at high risk for both outcomes despite ARB treatment.

Cardiovascular safety of glucose ‐lowering agents as add‐on medication to metformin treatment in type 2 diabetes: report from the Swedish National Diabetes Register
ConclusionsThis nationwide observational study showed that second‐line treatment with TZD and DPP‐4 inhibitor as add‐on medication to metformin were associated with significantly lower risks of mortality and cardiovascular events compared with SU, whereas basal insulin was associated with a higher risk of mortality.

Comparative risk of major cardiovascular events associated with second ‐line antidiabetic treatments: a retrospective cohort study using UK primary care data linked to hospitalization and mortality records
ConclusionsThiazolidinedione add‐on treatments to metformin were associated with lower risks of major cardiovascular disease or cardiovascular death compared with sulphonylurea add‐on treatment to metformin. Lower, but non‐statistically significant, risks were also found with DPP‐4 inhibitor add‐on therapies.

Cardiovascular Safety of Glucose‐Lowering Agents as Add‐on Medication to Metformin Treatment in Type 2 Diabetes:Report from the Swedish National Diabetes Register (NDR)
Conclusions: This nationwide observational study showed that second‐line treatment with TZD and DPP‐4i as add‐on medication to metformin were associated with significantly lower risks of mortality and cardiovascular events compared with SU, whereas basal insulin was associated with a higher risk of mortality.

ConclusionsThiazolidinedione add‐on treatments to metformin were associated with lower risks for major cardiovascular disease or cardiovascular death compared to sulphonylurea combination with metformin. Lower, but non‐statistically significant, risks were also found with DPP‐4i add‐on therapies.

Comparative cardiovascular safety of glucagon ‐like peptide‐1 receptor agonists versus other antidiabetic drugs in routine care: a cohort study
ConclusionsThis large study, performing head‐to‐head comparisons of GLP‐1 RAs with other antidiabetic agents in real‐world patients, provides estimates of relative safety precise enough to exclude large differences in CVD risk and adds further understanding to results from recent clinical trials.

Revitalization of pioglitazone: the optimum agent to be combined with a sodium‐glucose co‐transporter‐2 inhibitor
The recently completed EMPA‐REG study showed that empagliflozin significantly decreased the major adverse cardiac events (MACE) endpoint, which comprised cardiovascular death, non‐fatal myocardial infarction (MI) and stroke, in patients with high‐risk type 2 diabetes (T2DM), primarily through a reduction in cardiovascular death, without a significant decrease in either MI or stroke. In the PROactive study, pioglitazone decreased the MACE endpoint by a similar degree to that observed in the EMPA‐REG study, through a marked reduction in both recurrent MI and stroke and a modest reduction in cardiovascular death. Thes...

Gliptin‐mediated neuroprotection against stroke requires chronic pretreatment and is independent of glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor
Gliptins are anti‐type 2 diabetes (T2D) drugs that regulate glycaemia by preventing endogenous glucagon‐like peptide‐1 (GLP‐1) degradation. Chronically administered gliptins before experimental stroke can also induce neuroprotection, and this effect is potentially relevant for reducing brain damage in patients with T2D and high risk of stroke. It is not known, however, whether acute gliptin treatment after stroke (mimicking a post‐hospitalization treatment) is neuroprotective or whether gliptin‐mediated neuroprotection occurs via GLP‐1‐receptor (GLP‐1R) activation. To answer these two questions, wild‐ty...
