Having one of the highest diabetes prevalence rates in Southeast Asia, Singapore has explored various ways of enhancing the management of chronic illnesses, one of which is to treat diabetic patients in primary care settings rather than speciality facilities. Primary care physicians are tasked to manage their diabetic patients’ glycated haemoglobin levels, along with a myriad of related complications including hypoglycaemia, cardiovascular risk, and body weight issues. With the ever-increasing complexity of population health demands, oral semaglutide can be a strategic weapon utilised by primary care doctors to treat type 2 diabetic patients. In terms of glycaemic control and body weight reduction, oral semaglutide has outperformed several other oral anti-diabetic medicines. Moreover, oral semaglutide has a proven cardiovascular safety profile with potential benefits. The development of oral semaglutide, rather than the injectable type, has made it simpler for patients to benefit from semaglutide treatment. Oral semaglutide is a feasible and effective strategy in type 2 diabetes management, for both initiation and intensification needs, and is well positioned to be a game changer in primary care.","PeriodicalId":85774,"journal":{"name":"The Singapore family physician","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45366554","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is commonly associated with symptoms that alert the individual to take corrective actions to prevent further reduction in blood glucose level. Impaired awareness of hypoglycaemia (IAH) refers to the diminished ability to pick up symptoms of hypoglycaemia. Patients with IAH may fail to take corrective actions to prevent worsening hypoglycaemia. Such individuals may potentially lose consciousness or fall into coma as blood glucose level continues to decrease. Hence, it is important to address hypoglycaemia during clinic consultations. Sodium-glucose-co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors and Glucagon-like-peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptors agonists are two classes of diabetes treatment that target cardiovascular risk of type 2 diabetes treatments. These two agents should be used early in the course of treatment of diabetes. The gold standard for type 2 diabetes treatment should be aimed at lowering glycated haemoglobin, addressing cardiovascular risk, and minimising hypoglycaemia. Type 2 diabetes treatment should be patient-centred and individualised especially for elderly patients with significant comorbidities.","PeriodicalId":85774,"journal":{"name":"The Singapore family physician","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44202249","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Unfortunately, Type 2 diabetes may remain undiagnosed for years before presentation, allowing the onset of diabetes-related complications to occur even before diabetes diagnosis. Then there is the heterogeneity of Type 2 diabetes – there are thought to be subtypes within Type 2 diabetes which have different disease progression rates and risk of complications. Additionally, there is the present-day concept that the concept of Type 2 diabetes as a coronary heart risk equivalent is overly simplistic as not all patients with diabetes are at the same cardiovascular risk. Instead, individual patients will need to be risk-stratified for appropriate interventions. Despite these conundrums, protocols should be in place for early and regular complication screening, together with proactive and holistic management of diabetes mellitus. This article seeks to remind readers of what is necessary.","PeriodicalId":85774,"journal":{"name":"The Singapore family physician","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49264813","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Patients with DKD have a disproportionately higher risk for cardiovascular (CV) events and mortality. A comprehensive strategy is recommended for management of patients with DKD to reduce the risks of kidney disease progression and CV disease. Lifestyle modification, CV risk factor and glycaemic control, and maximum tolerated renin-angiotensin-aldosterone-system (RAAS) blockade form the foundation of DKD care. The kidney-protective effects of sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors are well established by randomised controlled trials (RTCs) in patients with DKD, and are independent of the stage of kidney disease. Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1RA) is the preferred added agent to metformin and SGLT-2 inhibitor if individualised glycaemic targets are not achieved. In addition, the non-steroidal mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist (MRA) finerenone improves kidney and cardiovascular outcomes in patients with DKD.","PeriodicalId":85774,"journal":{"name":"The Singapore family physician","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48622634","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Mr. J, a 78-year-old retired businessman, had been newly diagnosed with moderately differentiated caecal adenocarcinoma. He was expediently sent for surgery, but subsequently developed dire post-operative complications. Mr. J underwent multiple corrective operations and managed to survive this unfortunate turn of events. However, he inadvertently found himself forced into the position of caring for his stoma, an unfamiliar entity, which became an affliction that he was initially unable to accept.

Although the initial molecule – glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide – failed to stimulate insulin secretion in patients with type 2 diabetes, it led to the discovery of glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1). As GLP-1 impacts on various tissues and cells throughout the body, it allows patients with type 2 diabetes to benefit in many ways, in addition to lowering blood glucose levels. In a bid to harness these benefits pharmacologically, analogues were evolved from GLP-1 to produce a class of peptides known as GLP-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs). The mechanism of action by which GLP-1RAs achieve their effects on lowering glucose levels, body weight, systolic blood pressure as well as lipid profiles, and improving cardiovascular and renal outcomes will be further discussed. With the advancement in research and development, the advent of scientific research and development has greatly accelerated the global implementation and local approved use of the first oral GLP-1RA, allowing the abovementioned benefits to be easily accessed. Oral GLP-1RA is set to bring about a revolution in the management of type 2 diabetes in Singapore.","PeriodicalId":85774,"journal":{"name":"The Singapore family physician","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41416914","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
