▶️Hypothesis 1
✅if BMI >30 - TZD > DPP4i at ⤵️HbA1c
✅if BMI <30 - DPP4i > TZD at ⤵️HbA1c
▶️Hypothesis 2
✅if eGFR>90 - SGLT2i > DPP4i at ⤵️HbA1c
✅if eGFR 60-90 - DPP4i > SGLT2i at ⤵️HbA1c
⚠️small difference approx 3 mmol/mol (0.25%) between groups
Secondary outcomes
📍Between groups the only statistically difference was TZD ⤴️wt if BMI>30
📍Overall
No difference in HbA1c change between drugs
✅TZD best tolerated by participants (p=0.052)
✅DPP4i least side-effects reported
✅SGLT2i best at weight
📍All 💊 were prefered by some!
📍overall SGLT2i>DPP4i>TZD
📍TZD
🙁wt gain
🙁change in appetite
🙁hypos
📍DPP4i
🤢feeling sick
📍SGLT2i
🙁passing more urine
🙁Thirst
🙁Feeling dehydrated
🙁Thrush
🤔Rashes
Bottomline on patient preference
It appears to be the number of side-effects experienced, rather than weight ⤴️ ⤵️ or HbA1c⤵️ that impacts on patient preference.
So what next after metformin?
📍No simple one size fits all it depends on
▶️ What 💊/💉 the patient can tolerate
▶️ Patient factors (e.g. frailty, eGFR, weight)
▶️ co-morbidities (e.g. eASCVD, Heart Failure, CKD)
📍HCP:Patient communication
&
📍Shared-decision making are key!
And finally (for now)....
I think the ADA/EASD nailed this one back in 2018 👉rdcu.be/8JZn
Although studies like GRADE & TriMaster add granularity into the picture
Welcome to our final Goggledocs tweetorial from this #EASD2021 takeover!
Over the last few days we have discussed all things cardio-reno-metabolic including SGLT2s, GLP1s, dual agonists, triple agonists….but not mentioned much about type 1 diabetes…
So today we are going to end on a cardiometabolic focused look at Type 1 Diabetes with data from #EASD2021 interwoven in... stay tuned!
Today I will be going through some of the preliminary data from the ReTune Study
📍Twin Cycle Hypothesis (R. Tayor 2008) of #type2diabetes
📍Once an individual' subcutaneous fat reserves are full
▶️ Fat is stored in the liver
▶️ Liver derived VLDL in turn, among other things, ⤴️ pancreatic fat
▶️⤴️pancreatic fat leads onto ⤵️ insulin secretion to food

STEP this way for the last of our tweetorials covering #ESCCongress@escardio Looking at a trial of intensive blood pressure control in older adults with hypertension
First...step aside to a different STEP trial – Semaglutide in Obesity – our last tweetorial on this was very popular – have a look!
