    Abstract: Background: Arterial stiffness is a well-established surrogate marker of vascular properties in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2). We aimed to investigate whether optimization of DM2 therapy with novel antiglycemic agents additional to metformin, may improve arterial wall properties. Methods: We enrolled 99 consecutive patients (male gender=63.3%) receiving metformin and still not achieving the therapeutic targets. Subjects were assigned to age and sex matched equal groups (n=33/group) of an additional antiglycemic agent; either DPP-4i, SGLT2i (n=28) or GLP-1 agonists. Applanation tonometry was used to assess non-invasively augmentation index (AIx) and aortic pulse wave velocity (PWV) as a measure of arterial stiffness at baseline and at 3-month follow-up. Among other demographics data, hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) was measured. Results: There was no difference for male gender (p=0.10) or age (64.92 ± 8.30 years, p=0.27) between the 3 study groups. Interestingly, baseline values improved significantly after SGLT2i and DPP-4i administration both for PWV (11.46 ± 2.77 vs. 9.83 ± 2.19 m/s and 10.89 ± 2.35 vs. 9.68 ± 1.77 m/s respectively, p=0.01 for both) and AIx (28.81 ± 8.55 vs. 25.82 ± 7.40 and 27.91 ± 13.05 vs. 24.91 ± 12.70 respectively, p=0.01 for both), when compared to those at follow-up time. In contrast, GLP-1A administration decreased PWV (12.82 ± 3.00 m/s at baseline vs. 11.67 ± 2.77 m/s during follow-up, p & lt;0.001) but not AIx (31.64 ± 6.21 vs. 30.18 ± 6.03, p= 0.18). HbA1c at baseline was uniformly decreased in all study groups when compared to follow-up (7.52% vs. 6.72% for SGLT2i, 7.76% vs. 6.92% for DPP-4i and 8.19% vs. 6.85% for GLP-1A, p & lt;0.001 for all). Conclusion: The optimization of DM2 treatment with SGLT2i, DPP-4i or GLP-1A, added to metformin, not only helps to achieve better glycemic control but significantly ameliorates arterial stiffness indices and achieves therapeutic targets in patients with DM2.

    Abstract: Background: Patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2) exert a higher risk for thrombotic events. Platelet reactivity may be used to assess prothrombotic state in patients with cardiovascular disease. We aimed to investigate whether the administration of novel antiglycemic agents may influence platelet reactivity in these patients. Methods: We enrolled 99 patients (male=63.3%) receiving metformin for DM2 who did not achieve therapeutic targets under current treatment. Subjects were assigned to age and sex matched groups (n=33 per group) of an additional antiglycemic agent; either DPP-4 inhibitor, SGLT2 inhibitor or a GLP-1 agonist. Platelet reactivity was measured with PFA-200 assay; collagen/epinephrine (CEPI) and collagen/ADP closure time (CADP) were calculated in seconds and HbA1c at baseline and at 3 months. Results: There was no difference for male gender (p=0.10) or age (64.92 ± 8.30 years, p=0.27) between the study groups. All patients achieved better glycemic control in terms of HbA1c values between baseline and follow-up (7.78% vs. 6.92% for DPP-4, 7.52% vs. 6.73% for SGLT2 and 8.19% vs. 6.85% for GLP-1, p & lt;0.001 for all). Platelet reactivity did not differ significantly at baseline between the study groups (p=0.71 for CEPI and p=0.6 for CADP). Additionally, CEPI (p=0.54) and CADP (p=0.43) did not change significantly at follow-up in all groups. Interestingly, when we conducted a separate analysis for patients not receiving antiplatelet agents, we observed that only CADP was significantly reduced at follow-up time after DPP-4 and GLP-1 treatment, but not after SGLT2 administration (148.50 ± 60.65 vs. 119.75 sec for DPP-4, p=0.01, 104.12 ± 25.68 vs.88.7 ± 22.25 sec for GLP-1, p=0.01 and 101.57 ± 15.26 vs. 88.57 ± 13.26 sec for SGLT2, p=0.73). Conclusion: The addition of DPP-4 or GLP-1 to metformin influences platelet reactivity and achieves better glycemic control in DM2 patients, providing further insights in the pathophysiology of DM2.

    Abstract: Background: Arterial stiffness is a prominent macrovascular complication in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2). Antiplatelet therapy is the cornerstone of CVD therapy. There is little evidence about the influence of antiglycemic agents on arterial wall properties and prothrombotic state. Methods: We enrolled 80 consecutive patients (males=64.4%), aged 64.19 ± 8.82 years receiving either metformin plus another antiglycemic agent such as sulphonylureas, DPP-4i, GLP-1 agonists, insulin, or metformin alone (n=16 per group). Applanation tonometry was used to assess aortic pulse wave velocity (PWV) as a measure of arterial stiffness. Platelet reactivity was measured with PFA-200, collagen/epinephrine (CEPI) and PFA-200 collagen/ADP closure time (CADP). Results: There was no difference between the study groups regarding gender, age, hypertension, dyslipidemia, smoking, PWV, CADP or CEPI (p=NS for all). When conducting a separate analysis between patients receiving aspirin (AS), dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) and those without antiplatelet therapy (nAPT), we observed that nAPT patients exerted significantly lower CEPI values (134.42 ± 40 s for nAPT vs. 170.36 ± 64 s for AS vs. 178.90 ± 74 s for DAPT, p=0.03). PWV was 10.96 ± 2.54 m/s for nAPT vs. 11.20 ± 2.88 m/s for AS vs. 10.82 ± 2.76 m/s for DAPT (p=0.9). Within-group analysis showed that CEPI values were significantly reduced in nAPT under sulphonylureas (121 s vs. 243 s vs. 262 s for nAPT, AS and DAPT respectively, p=0.02) or GLP-1 (138 s vs. 203 s vs. 168 s for nAPT, AS and DAPT respectively, p=0.05). Additionally, we found an inverse, linear association between CEPI and PWV (rho= -0.45, p=0.02) and CADP and PWV (rho= -0.04, p=0.05) in nAPT patients alone. Conclusion: Increased prothrombotic state is associated with impaired arterial wall elastic properties. Antidiabetic and antiplatelet treatment interactions may regulate the relationship between arterial stiffness and thrombosis in patients with DM2. Disclosure G. Siasos: None. P.K.
