Abstract
Background
Pulse wave velocity (PWV) and augmentation index (AIx) are indices used to assess arterial stiffness. We evaluated the effect of sodium glucose co-transporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) and glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP1-RA) on arterial stiffness indices.
Methods
We searched PubMed (up to January 2024) for RCTs assessing the effect of SGLT2i or GLP1-RA on arterial stiffness with reporting outcomes PWV and AIx. Effect sizes of the included studies were expressed as weighted mean difference (WMD) and 95 % confidence interval. Subgroup analyses were performed based on comparator (placebo vs. active comparator), design (RCT vs. crossover), population (diabetic vs. all) and blindness (yes vs. no).
Results
A total of 19 studies (SGLT2i, 12 studies; GLP1-RA, 5 studies; SGLT2i/GLP1-RA combination, 2 studies) assessing 1212 participants were included. We did not find any statistically significant association between GLP1-RA or SGLT2i and PWV or AIx. None of the subgroup analyses showed any statistically significant result.
Conclusion
No evidence of a favorable change in arterial stiffness indices (PWV, AIx) was found following the administration of SGLT2i or GLP1-RA.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Diabetes and Its Complications (JDC) is a journal for health care practitioners and researchers, that publishes original research about the pathogenesis, diagnosis and management of diabetes mellitus and its complications. JDC also publishes articles on physiological and molecular aspects of glucose homeostasis.
The primary purpose of JDC is to act as a source of information usable by diabetes practitioners and researchers to increase their knowledge about mechanisms of diabetes and complications development, and promote better management of people with diabetes who are at risk for those complications.
Manuscripts submitted to JDC can report any aspect of basic, translational or clinical research as well as epidemiology. Topics can range broadly from early prediabetes to late-stage complicated diabetes. Topics relevant to basic/translational reports include pancreatic islet dysfunction and insulin resistance, altered adipose tissue function in diabetes, altered neuronal control of glucose homeostasis and mechanisms of drug action. Topics relevant to diabetic complications include diabetic retinopathy, neuropathy and nephropathy; peripheral vascular disease and coronary heart disease; gastrointestinal disorders, renal failure and impotence; and hypertension and hyperlipidemia.
