Patients with previous cardiovascular metabolic diseases may face a greater risk of developing into the severe condition and the comorbidities can also greatly affect the prognosis of the COVID-19. On the other hand, COVID-19 can, in turn, aggravate the damage to the heart (Clinical Research in Cardiology)

Effect of Hemoglobin A1c Reduction or Weight Reduction on Blood Pressure in Glucagon‐Like Peptide‐1 Receptor Agonist and Sodium‐Glucose Cotransporter‐2 Inhibitor Treatment in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus
Treatment with GLP‐1RA and SGLT2i led to significant reductions in BP in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Weight reduction was significantly and independently associated with BP reductions in GLP‐1RA treatment and SGLT2i treatment (JAHA)
Prognostic Significance of Long-term HbA1c Variability for All-Cause Mortality in the ACCORD Trial
Long-term visit-to-visit HbA1c variability was a strong predictor of all-cause mortality. HbA1c VIM combined with HbA1c mean conferred an increased risk for all-cause mortality in the intensive-therapy group (Diabetes Care)
A Randomized, Controlled Trial of Liraglutide for Adolescents with Obesity
In adolescents with obesity, the use of liraglutide (3.0 mg) plus lifestyle therapy led to a significantly greater reduction in the BMI standard-deviation score than placebo plus lifestyle therapy (NEJM)
Exocrine Pancreatic Insufficiency in Type 1 and Type 2 Diabetes
Exocrine pancreatic insufficiency is a clinically relevant, frequent but poorly understood disorder in both type 1 and type 2 diabetes (Current Diabetes Reports)
Standards of Care for Management of Adults with Type 1 Diabetes 2020
ABCD Standards of care for the management of adults with type 1 diabetes provides comprehensive standards for units providing care to people with type 1 diabetes and is intended as a resource for specialist teams
Improving Pediatric Endocrinology Trainees’ Knowledge about Insulin Pumps and Continuous Glucose Monitors with Online Spaced Education: Technology Knowledge Optimization in T1D (TeKnO T1D)
TeKnO T1D proved to be an engaging, effective way to improve endocrinology fellows’ knowledge and confidence about insulin pumps and CGM use in the management of pediatric type 1 diabetes (Pediatric Diabetes)
Effect of Dapagliflozin on Worsening Heart Failure and Cardiovascular Death in Patients With Heart Failure With and Without Diabetes
In this exploratory analysis of a randomized trial of patients with HFrEF, dapagliflozin compared with placebo, when added to recommended therapy, significantly reduced the risk of worsening heart failure or cardiovascular death independently of diabetes status (JAMA)
Diabetes care – examining whether patients with diabetes receive the recommended care and treatment
Here we use data from the National Diabetes Audit and National Paediatric Diabetes Audit to look at how the quality of care for diabetics has changed over time (Nuffield Trust)
Efficacy of carbohydrate supplementation compared to bolus insulin dose reduction around exercise in adults with type 1 diabetes: a retrospective controlled analysis
Carbohydrate supplementation was superior to bolus insulin reductions in the prevention of hypoglycemia during exercise in people with type 1 diabetes (Canadian Journal of Diabetes)
Time Course of Normalization of Functional β-Cell Capacity in the Diabetes Remission Clinical Trial After Weight Loss in Type 2 Diabetes
A gradual increase in assessed functional β-cell capacity occurred after weight loss, becoming similar to that of NDC group participants by 12 months. This result was unchanged at 2 years with continuing remission of type 2 diabetes (Diabetes Care)
Preventing major adverse cardiovascular events by SGLT-2 inhibition in patients with type 2 diabetes: the role of kidney
Here, we present meta-analysis of the four key CVOTs indicating a major role of renal function in determining the extent of MACE prevention, with the benefit increasing in more severe kidney disease, that is, a high-risk condition where effectiveness of the traditional approach with statins is reduced (Cardiovascular Diabetology)
Fibrinogen is associated with glucose metabolism and cardiovascular outcomes in patients with coronary artery disease
The present study suggested that Fib levels were associated with FBG and HbA1c in stable CAD patients. Moreover, elevated Fib was independently associated with MACEs in CAD patients, especially among those with pre-DM and DM, suggesting that Fib may provide incremental value in the cardiovascular risk stratification of pre-DM and DM patients (Cardiovascular Diabetology)
Regression from prediabetes to normal glucose levels is more frequent than progression towards diabetes: The CRONICAS Cohort Study
Regression from pre-diabetes back to euglycemia was much more common than progression to diabetes (Diabetes Research and Clinical Practice)
The Effects of Intensive Glycemic Control on Clinical Outcomes Among Patients With Type 2 Diabetes With Different Levels of Cardiovascular Risk and Hemoglobin A1c in the ADVANCE Trial
The major benefits for patients with T2D in ADVANCE did not substantially differ across levels of baseline ASCVD risk and HbA1c (Diabetes Care)
National Paediatric Diabetes Audit – Annual report 2018-19
The National Paediatric Diabetes Audit assess the care received by children and young people with diabetes in all Paediatric Diabetes Units (PDUs) across England and Wales (HQIP)
Efficacy and safety of meal-time administration of short-acting exenatide for glycaemic control in type 1 diabetes (MAG1C)
Short-acting exenatide does not seem to have a future as a standard add-on treatment to insulin therapy in type 1 diabetes (The Lancet Diabetes & Endocrinology)
The Diabetes Care Index: A Novel Metric to Assess Delivery of Optimal Type 1 Diabetes Care
The T1DCI is a powerful metric to evaluate the ability of our diabetes program to standardize, quantify, and monitor delivery of optimal diabetes care to children with T1D, and to drive our program towards zero missed opportunities for quality care delivery (Pediatric Diabetes)
Fixed-Ratio Combination of Insulin and GLP-1 RA in Patients with Longstanding Type 2 Diabetes: A Subanalysis of LixiLan-L
iGlarLixi lowered glycated haemoglobin more versus iGlar regardless of T2D duration, with benefit retained even among patients with the longest T2D duration (Diabetes Therapy)
A Systematic Review of Cost-Effectiveness of Sodium-Glucose Cotransporter Inhibitors for Type 2 Diabetes
The literature demonstrated that SGLT2i may be cost-effective compared to many antidiabetic therapies including DPP-4i, SU, TZD, AGI, insulin, and standard care (Economics and Policy in Diabetes)
