BackgroundCardiovascular disease threatens the health and quality of life of individuals, particularly those with type II diabetes. Recently, some studies have reported the effect of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors in reducing the rates of hospitalization or urgent visits, resulting in IV therapy for heart failure in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).MethodsWe did a comprehensive search in electronic databases from inception through July 2020 for randomized-controlled trials, using the keywords “sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitor”, “dapagliflozin”, “heart failure”, “cardiovascular outcomes”, “major adverse cardiovascular events”, “all-cause mortality”, and “cardiovascular death”. Random-effects summary odds ratios (OR) were constructed using M-L heterogeneity model.ResultsFive trials with 5,252 patients were ultimately included. The incidence of hospitalization for heart failure (HHF) (n=4, OR=0.74; 95% CI, 0.61 to 0.88; I2 = 0%) and all-cause mortality (ACM, n=4, OR=0.76; 95% CI, 0.66 to 0.94; I2 = 0%); was reduced by dapagliflozin, respectively, in all heart failure patients, without obvious heterogeneity. The incidence of cardiovascular death in dapagliflozin was lower than that in placebo without statistically significant (CVD, n=5, OR=0.84; 95% CI, 0.69 to 1.03; I2 = 0%). In HFrEF subgroup, dapagliflozin was associated with a reduced incidence of hospitalization for heart failure (n=4, OR=0.74; 95% CI, 0.60 to 0.91; I2 = 0%), cardiovascular death (n=4, OR=0.72; 95% CI, 0.58 to 0.91; I2 = 8%), and all-cause mortality (n=3, OR=0.70; 95% CI, 0.50 to 0.99; I2 = 43%) without significant heterogeneity. In contrast, in the HFpEF subgroup, there was no difference in the incidence of cardiovascular death (n=2, OR=1.45; 95% CI, 0.95 to 2.22; I2 = 0%) and all-cause mortality (n=2, OR=1.04; 95% CI, 0.76 to 1.43; I2 = 0%) between dapagliflozin and placebo.ConclusionIn our study, dapagliflozin performed a statistical reduction in the rate of heart failure hospitalization, cardiovascular death, and all-cause mortality in patients with HFrEF and diabetes. However, in the HFpEF subgroup, dapagliflozin did not show a significant cardiovascular protective effect.

Abstract Background A meta-analysis is presented of cardiovascular outcome trials (CVOTs) comparing glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RA) versus placebo on cardiorenal outcomes in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Methods We did an electronic search up to June 30, 2021, for eligible trials. We did a meta-analysis of available trial data using a random-effects model to calculate overall hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% CI (confidence intervals). We included data from 8 CVOTs and 60,080 patients (72.4% with established cardiovascular disease). Results GLP-1RA reduced major cardiovascular events (MACE) by 14% (HR = 0.86, 95% CI 0.79–0.94, P = 0.006) with a non-significant heterogeneity between subgroups of patients with and without cardiovascular disease (P = 0.127). GLP-1RA also reduced the risk of cardiovascular death by 13% (P = 0.016), nonfatal stroke by 16% (P = 0.007), hospitalization for heart failure by 10% (P = 0.023), all-cause mortality by 12% (P = 0.012), and the broad composite kidney outcome by 17% (P = 0.012), which was driven by a reduction in macroalbuminuria only (HR = 0.74, 0.67–0.82, P < 0.001). Conclusions GLP-1RA have moderate benefits on MACE, and also reduce hospitalization for heart failure and all-cause mortality; they also have robust benefits on reducing the incidence of macroalbuminuria.

BackgroundThe association between early changes in albuminuria and kidney and cardiovascular events is primarily based on trials of renin-angiotensin system blockade. It is unclear whether this association occurs with sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibition.MethodsThe Canagliflozin and Renal Events in Diabetes with Established Nephropathy Clinical Evaluation (CREDENCE) trial enrolled 4401 patients with type 2 diabetes and CKD (urinary albumin-creatinine ratio [UACR] >300 mg/g). This post hoc analysis assessed canagliflozin’s effect on albuminuria and how early change in albuminuria (baseline to week 26) is associated with the primary kidney outcome (ESKD, doubling of serum creatinine, or kidney death), major adverse cardiovascular events, and hospitalization for heart failure or cardiovascular death.ResultsComplete data for early change in albuminuria and other covariates were available for 3836 (87.2%) participants in the CREDENCE trial. Compared with placebo, canagliflozin lowered UACR by 31% (95% confidence interval [95% CI], 27% to 36%) at week 26, and significantly increased the likelihood of achieving a 30% reduction in UACR (odds ratio, 2.69; 95% CI, 2.35 to 3.07). Each 30% decrease in UACR over the first 26 weeks was independently associated with a lower hazard for the primary kidney outcome (hazard ratio [HR], 0.71; 95% CI, 0.67 to 0.76; P<0.001), major adverse cardiovascular events (HR, 0.92; 95% CI, 0.88 to 0.96; P<0.001), and hospitalization for heart failure or cardiovascular death (HR, 0.86; 95% CI, 0.81 to 0.90; P<0.001). Residual albuminuria levels at week 26 remained a strong independent risk factor for kidney and cardiovascular events, overall and in each treatment arm.ConclusionsIn people with type 2 diabetes and CKD, use of canagliflozin results in early, sustained reductions in albuminuria, which were independently associated with long-term kidney and cardiovascular outcomes.

Lin et al. recently did a network meta-analysis based on cardiovascular (CV) outcome trials (CVOTs) of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) and those of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP1RAs). Due to the absence of CVOTs directly comparing SGLT2is with GLP1RAs, Lin et al.'s network meta-analysis identified the indirect evidence that SGLT2is vs. GLP1RAs reduced hospitalization for heart failure (HHF) but did not reduce CV death and all-cause mortality (ACM) in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D). We did another meta-analysis incorporating those CV outcome cohort studies directly comparing SGLT2is with GLP1RAs, and identified that SGLT2is vs. GLP1RAs were significantly associated with the lower risks of not only HHF but also CV death and ACM. These findings may suggest that SGLT2is should be considered over GLP1RAs in terms of preventing CV and all-cause death and HHF in T2D patients.

Abstract Context The goal of the meta-analysis was to evaluate the effect of pioglitazone on the primary and secondary prevention of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) and renal adverse events in patients with or at high risk of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Design Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing pioglitazone with any control were identified through PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane Library. Cardiovascular outcomes included major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs, defined as the composite of nonfatal myocardial infarction, nonfatal stroke, and cardiovascular death), hospitalization for heart failure, and all-cause mortality. Renal outcomes included change in urinary albumin to creatinine ratio and 24-hour urinary protein excretion. Weighted mean difference (WMD) and risk ratio (RR) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were pooled. Results A total of 26 studies with 19 645 participants were enrolled. Pioglitazone reduced the risk of MACE (RR, 0.8 [95% CI, 0.7–0.9]), with benefit only seen in patients with a history of established CVDs (0.8 [0.7–0.9]) and not in those without (1.0 [0.7–1.3]). Regarding the individual components, pioglitazone reduced the risk of nonfatal myocardial infarction (0.8 [0.6–1.0]) and nonfatal stroke (0.8 [0.7–0.9]), which was confined to patients with a history of established CVDs, whereas no treatment effect was found on cardiovascular death (1.0 [0.7–1.2]) regardless of the presence of established CVDs. Pioglitazone increased the risk of hospitalization for heart failure (1.3 [1.1–1.6]) and had no treatment effect on all-cause mortality (1.0 [0.8–1.1]). Pioglitazone reduced albuminuria by 18.5% (WMD 18.5% [95% CI, 21.1-16.0]), with a similar benefit in patients with different renal function categories. Conclusions Pioglitazone should be considered in patients with or at high risk of T2DM for the prevention of cardiovascular endpoints, especially in those with a history of established CVD who might benefit the most. Robust reductions in progression of renal disease are seen regardless of baseline renal function degree.

Patients with type 2 diabetes are at increased risk of developing heart failure, cardiovascular death and renal failure. The recent results of three large sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitor cardiovascular outcomes trials have demonstrated a reduction in heart failure hospitalisation and progressive renal failure. One trial also showed a fall in cardiovascular and total death. A broad spectrum of patients with diabetes benefit from these salutary effects in cardiac and renal function and so these trials have important implications for the management of patients with type 2 diabetes. Selected glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists have also been shown to reduce adverse cardiovascular outcomes.

Abstract Objective To compare the risk of cardiovascular events between sodium glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors and dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors among people with type 2 diabetes in a real world context of clinical practice. Design Multi-database retrospective cohort study using a prevalent new user design with subsequent meta-analysis. Setting Canadian Network for Observational Drug Effect Studies (CNODES), with administrative healthcare databases from seven Canadian provinces and the United Kingdom, 2013-18. Population 209 867 new users of a SGLT2 inhibitor matched to 209 867 users of a DPP-4 inhibitor on time conditional propensity score and followed for a mean of 0.9 years. Main outcome measures The primary outcome was major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE, a composite of myocardial infarction, ischaemic stroke, or cardiovascular death). Secondary outcomes were the individual components of MACE, heart failure, and all cause mortality. Cox proportional hazards models were used to estimate site specific adjusted hazards ratios and 95% confidence intervals, comparing use of SGLT2 inhibitors with use of DPP-4 inhibitors in an as treated approach. Site specific results were pooled using random effects meta-analysis. Results Compared with DPP-4 inhibitors, SGLT2 inhibitors were associated with decreased risks of MACE (incidence rate per 1000 person years: 11.4 v 16.5; hazard ratio 0.76, 95% confidence interval 0.69 to 0.84), myocardial infarction (5.1 v 6.4; 0.82, 0.70 to 0.96), cardiovascular death (3.9 v 7.7; 0.60, 0.54 to 0.67), heart failure (3.1 v 7.7; 0.43, 0.37 to 0.51), and all cause mortality (8.7 v 17.3; 0.60, 0.54 to 0.67). SGLT2 inhibitors had more modest benefits for ischaemic stroke (2.6 v 3.5; 0.85, 0.72 to 1.01). Similar benefits for MACE were observed with canagliflozin (0.79, 0.66 to 0.94), dapagliflozin (0.73, 0.63 to 0.85), and empagliflozin (0.77, 0.68 to 0.87). Conclusions In this large observational study conducted in a real world clinical practice context, the short term use of SGLT2 inhibitors was associated with a decreased risk of cardiovascular events compared with the use of DPP-4 inhibitors.
