Use of sodium –glucose co‐transporter 2 inhibitors in patients with heart failure and type 2 diabetes mellitus: data from the Swedish Heart Failure Registry
ConclusionIn a contemporary HF cohort with T2DM, SGLT2i use increased over time, was more common with specialist care, younger age, ischaemic heart disease, and preserved renal function, and was associated with lower mortality and morbidity.

Anti-diabetic drugs for preventing atrial fibrillation: a new revolution?
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) and atrial fibrillation (AF) are two of the great epidemics of our time. DM affects and estimated 8.5% of adults in the US1, and is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular events, including AF.2 AF in turn affects an estimated up to 12.5% of adults over age 65 years in the US, decreases quality of life and increases the risks of heart failure, stroke and death 3,4. In 2015, the EMPA-REG OUTCOME randomized controlled trial (RCT), assessing a sodium glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitor (SGLT-2i), sparked interest in the therapeutic potential for oral anti-diabetic agents to reduce card...

Sodium glucose transporter inhibition in heart failure From an unexpected side effect to a novel treatment possibility
Sodium-glucose transporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i), originally launched as glucose-lowering drugs, have been studied in large cardiovascular outcome trials to ascertain safety. Surprisingly, these compounds reduced the risk of cardiovascular events (cardiovascular death, non-fatal myocardial and non-fatal stroke) and total mortality. The mechanisms behind this benefit are only partly understood, but a major contributor is the reduction of heart failure hospitalisations, evident already within weeks after the initiation of the SGLT2i.

Comparing the clinical outcomes across different sodium/glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors in heart failure patients: a systematic review and network meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials
ConclusionsThere were no demonstrable treatment differences across SGLT2 inhibitors across cardiovascular, renal, and metabolic outcomes, although this needs to be interpreted considering the wide confidence intervals, limited number of included studies, and heterogeneity present. Future research of different SGLT2 inhibitors in head-to-head studies is warranted to determine if there is a drug class effect.

Prevention of Diabetes Macrovascular Complications and Heart Failure
Cardiovascular (CV) mortality in diabetes has declined substantially over the last 3  decades in high-income countries from a multifactorial approach targeting glucose, cholesterol, and blood pressure, and lower smoking rates. Additional CV gains may be achieved from large-scale weight loss, which ongoing trials are testing, and from delaying diabetes in those at highest risk. Fina lly, recent outcome trials support a role for (1) sodium/glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors, which lower major adverse cardiovascular events but incident heart failure more strongly, and (2) glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists, which lowe...

Summary: International Kidney Cancer Symposium
Conclusions:  Ideal ischemia time is 20-25 minutes or less improves short and long term renal function. >25 minutes carried 5 year risk of new onset stage 4 CKD No differences on GFR for cold vs. warm ischemia times Preoperative GFR and the percent of kidney preserved was a better predictor of post op GFR.  No ischemia preserves renal function better than warm. Longer cold ischemia times were equivalent to shorter warm ischemia times. Quality and quantity of the remaining kidney is associated with ultimate renal function.

Potential Therapeutic Benefits of Sodium-Glucose Cotransporter 2 Inhibitors in the Context of Ischemic Heart Failure: A State-Of-The-Art Review
Cardiovasc Hematol Agents Med Chem. 2021 Aug 9. doi: 10.2174/1871525719666210809121016. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTSodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors are a class of anti-diabetic agents that block the reabsorption of glucose in the proximal convoluted tubule of the nephron, thereby contributing to glycosuria and lowering blood glucose levels. SGLT2 inhibitors have been associated with improved cardiovascular outcomes in patients with diabetes, including a reduced risk of cardiovascular death and hospitalizations for heart failure. Recently, DAPA-HF and EMPEROR REDUCED trials showed the beneficial cardiova...

The Role of SGLT2 Inhibitors in Atherosclerosis: A Narrative Mini-Review
Objective: Sodium glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2-is) are antidiabetic drugs that improve glycemic control by limiting urinary glucose reuptake in the proximal tubule. SGLT2-is might suppress atherosclerotic processes and ameliorate the prognosis of patients with diabetes mellitus diagnosed with or at high risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). In this mini review, we examine the role of SGLT2-is in the development and progression of atherosclerosis throughout its spectrum, from subclinical atherosclerosis to ASCVD.Data Sources—PubMed and Google Scholar were searched for publications related to...
