Tirzepatide confers renal protection in patients with T2D

05 Oct 2022 by

Once-weekly injection of tirzepatide, a dual GIP and GLP-1 receptor antagonist, slowed eGFR* decline and reduced UACR** in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) who are at high risk of cardiovascular (CV) disease compared with once-daily insulin glargine (iGlar), according to a prespecified post hoc analysis of the SURPASS-4*** trial presented at EASD 2022.

Poor glycaemic control tied to death risk in T2D patients with CKD

04 Oct 2022

Poorly controlled glycosylated haemoglobin (HbA1c) levels appear to aggravate the risk of mortality in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and chronic kidney disease (CKD), a recent study has found. Glycaemic control is not associated with progression to end-stage kidney disease (ESKD).

Dapagliflozin DELIVERs across full HF spectrum regardless of LVEF

04 Oct 2022 by

The selective, oral sodium–glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitor dapagliflozin reduces the risk of cardiovascular (CV) death or worsening heart failure (HF) in patients with HF and mildly reduced or preserved ejection fraction (HFmrEF or HFpEF) in the phase III DELIVER* trial, touted as the largest and most inclusive thus far in this patient group.

Palaeolithic diet-induced weight loss extends benefits to sleep apnoea in women

03 Oct 2022 by

High adherence to the palaeolithic diet helps reduce sleep apnoea in menopausal women who are overweight, with the benefit linked to weight loss, according to a secondary analysis of a trial comparing a 2-year intervention of a palaeolithic diet with a low-fat control diet according to the Nordic Nutritional Recommendations.

03 Oct 2022 by

A real-world study of over 250,000 type 2 diabetes (T2D) patients from Hong Kong has found that use of renin-angiotensin-system inhibitors (RASIs) is independently associated with reduced risk of cancer, including diabetes-related cancers and cancer-specific mortality in diabetes.
