Efficacy of Ertugliflozin on Heart Failure-Related Events in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and Established Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease: Results of the VERTIS CV Trial

In patients with T2DM with or without baseline HF, ertugliflozin reduced risk for first and total HHF and total HHF/CV death, adding further support for the use of SGLT2 inhibitors in primary and secondary prevention of HHF (Circulation)


Glucose management for exercise using continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) and intermittently scanned CGM (isCGM) systems in type 1 diabetes

Position statement of the European Association for the Study of Diabetes (EASD) and of the International Society for Pediatric and Adolescent Diabetes (ISPAD) endorsed by JDRF and supported by the American Diabetes Association (Diabetologia)


SGLT2 inhibitors with and without metformin: a meta‐analysis of cardiovascular, kidney and mortality outcomes

Treatment with SGLT2 inhibitors results in clear and consistent reductions in cardiovascular, kidney and mortality outcomes regardless of whether patients are receiving or not receiving metformin (Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism)


Insights from VERIFY: Early Combination Therapy Provides Better Glycaemic Durability Than a Stepwise Approach in Newly Diagnosed Type 2 Diabetes

The potential benefits of sustained and continuous disease control that early combination therapy offers represent the start of a new era in early diagnosis and intensive management, to achieve the treatment aims of type 2 diabetes (Diabetes Therapy)


What Makes Sodium-Glucose Co-Transporter-2 Inhibitors Stand out in Heart Failure?

SGLT-2 inhibitors are the latest class of therapies to demonstrate important clinical benefits among patients with HFrEF, and their pharmacological properties favor ease of use and integration in multi-drug disease-modifying regimens (Current Cardiology Reports)


Metformin use in prediabetes: is earlier intervention better?

The largest reductions in both incidence of diabetes and FPG occurred in prediabetic persons with a higher level of FPG at baseline. Metformin was able to stabilise insulin sensitivity and was more effective in persons with more pronounced IFG (Acta Diabetologica)
