Abstract

Aims

To compare the effectiveness of adding a glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1RA) on composite of diabetes-related complications and mortality with that of adding short-acting insulin (SAI) or shifting to premixed insulin among basal insulin (BI)-treated individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in South Korea.

Methods

From the Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service database, individuals with T2DM who initiated BI treatment and had advanced their treatment regimen from July 1, 2012, to December 31, 2018.

Results

A total of 38,634 individuals with T2DM were included in this study. Compared to adding SAI to BI, adding GLP-1RA was associated with decreased risks of cardiovascular complications (hazard ratio 0.56; 95 % confidence interval 0.43–0.72), severe microvascular complications (0.30; 0.19–0.48), diabetes-related hospitalization (0.62; 0.53–0.73), and all-cause mortality (0.27; 0.13–0.57). Compared to switching to premixed insulin, adding GLP-1RA was also associated with lower risk of cardiovascular complications (0.65; 0.51–0.84), severe microvascular complications (0.36; 0.22–0.58), diabetes-related hospitalization (0.62; 0.53–0.73), and all-cause mortality (0.32; 0.15–0.67).

Conclusions

In this real-world Korean study, adding GLP-1RA to BI reduced risks of diabetes complications and all-cause mortality than adding SAI or shifting to premixed insulin.

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.
