Abstract
Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors are strongly recommended in patients with heart failure, regardless of the presence of diabetes mellitus. A 74 year-old woman with a reduced left ventricular ejection fraction and diabetes mellitus (the types were unknown), receiving insulin and SGLT2 inhibitor, was hospitalized for altered consciousness with systemic hypotension. Upon admission, she was diagnosed with cardiogenic shock due to diabetic ketoacidosis. Intensive fluid resuscitation under Impella CP support successively improved her metabolic acidosis, preventing worsening pulmonary congestion by mechanically unloading the heart. After hemodynamic stabilization, she was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes mellitus for the first time. She was discharged on day 54 and was followed for 6 months without any recurrences. We must remain vigilant regarding the risk of diabetic ketoacidosis in patients using SGLT2 inhibitors, particularly those on insulin therapy or with diabetes mellitus of unknown types. Impella device shows promise as a circulatory support system in alleviating the left ventricle's workload and averting exacerbated pulmonary congestion, especially in cases where patients necessitate aggressive fluid replacement therapy, such as in the treatment of diabetic ketoacidosis concurrent with compromised cardiac function.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Obesity is an epidemic in the United States with serious concomitant co-morbid conditions; people living with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1D) are not immune to the risk either. Weight gain in T1D is likely multifactorial, due to genetic, environmental and treatment-related factors. FDA-approved and other adjunctive weight loss therapies may benefit people living with T1D but there are risks to consider when providing recommendations or prescribing medications. RECENT FINDINGS We performed a PubMed search of studies assessing clinical outcomes of both approved and off-label medications used in the treatment of type 1 diabetes. Search terms included 'type 1 diabetes, obesity' and the following: (1) metformin, (2) pramlintide, (3) glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists, (4) dual GLP-1 and gastric inhibitory polypeptide (GIP) agonists, (5) sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors, (6) surgical treatment of obesity, (7) insulin pump, (8) insulin, (9) medical nutrition therapy, (10) diabetes self-management education, (11) exercise, (12) naltrexone-buproprion, (13) orlistat, and (14) phentermine-topiramate. SUMMARY Weight loss treatments provide a wide-range of benefits in reducing both morbidity and mortality in those who are obese. Treatments also have varying adverse effect profiles which may impact T1D treatment. In this review, we aim to summarize study outcomes in people with T1D, including risks and benefits, of on- and off-label weight loss treatments.

Abstract
Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune condition resulting in insulin deficiency and eventual loss of pancreatic β cell function requiring lifelong insulin therapy. Since the discovery of insulin more than 100 years ago, vast advances in treatments have improved care for many people with type 1 diabetes. Ongoing research on the genetics and immunology of type 1 diabetes and on interventions to modify disease course and preserve β cell function have expanded our broad understanding of this condition. Biomarkers of type 1 diabetes are detectable months to years before development of overt disease, and three stages of diabetes are now recognized. The advent of continuous glucose monitoring and the newer automated insulin delivery systems have changed the landscape of type 1 diabetes management and are associated with improved glycated hemoglobin and decreased hypoglycemia. Adjunctive therapies such as sodium glucose cotransporter-1 inhibitors and glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists may find use in management in the future. Despite these rapid advances in the field, people living in under-resourced parts of the world struggle to obtain necessities such as insulin, syringes, and blood glucose monitoring essential for managing this condition. This review covers recent developments in diagnosis and treatment and future directions in the broad field of type 1 diabetes.

Real-world safety and effectiveness of dapagliflozin in people living with type 1 diabetes in Spain: The Dapa-ON multicenter retrospective study. DIABETES & METABOLISM 2024; 50:101501.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess real-world safety and effectiveness of dapagliflozin in people living with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). METHODS We conducted a multicenter retrospective study in Spain including data from 250 people living with T1DM receiving dapagliflozin as add-on therapy to insulin (80.8 % on-label use). The number of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) events was calculated over a 12-month follow-up (primary outcome). Changes in body weight, HbA1c, total daily insulin dose, and continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) metrics from baseline (at dapagliflozin prescription) to 12 months were also evaluated. RESULTS A total of five DKA events (2.4 % [95 % CI 0.3;4.5] were reported in patients with a 12-month follow-up, n = 207): two events related to insulin pump malfunction, two events related to concomitant illnesses, and one event related to insulin dose omission. DKA events were more frequent among insulin pump users than among participants on multiple daily injections (7.7 % versus 1.2 %). Four of the reported DKA events occurred within the first six months after initiation of dapagliflozin. No deaths or persistent sequelae due to DKA were reported. No severe hypoglycemia episodes were reported. Significant reductions in mean body weight (-3.3 kg), HbA1c (-0.6 %), and total daily insulin dose (-8.6 %), P < 0.001, were observed 12 months after dapagliflozin prescription. Significant improvements in TIR (+9.3 %), TAR (-7.2 %), TBR (-2.5 %), and coefficient of variation (-5.1 %), P < 0.001, were also observed in the subgroup of patients with available CGM data. Finally, an improvement in urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR) was found among participants with UACR ≥ 30 mg/g at baseline (median decrease of 99 mg/g in UACR, P = 0.001). CONCLUSION The use of dapagliflozin in people living with T1DM has an appropriate safety profile after careful selection of participants and implementation of strategies to reduce the risk of DKA (i.e., prescribed according to the recommendations of the European Medicines Agency), and also leads to clinical improvements in this population.

Younger patients and low c-peptide immunoreactivity index but not nutritional states affect fasting blood ketone levels in Japanese with type 1 diabetes after sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitor administration. Diabetes Obes Metab 2023; 25:3682-3689. [PMID: 37667649 DOI: 10.1111/dom.15262] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/30/2023] [Revised: 08/07/2023] [Accepted: 08/14/2023] [Indexed: 09/06/2023]
Abstract
AIM Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) are available for individuals with type 1 diabetes, but appropriate use is recommended to prevent ketosis or ketoacidosis. This study aimed to evaluate the risk of ketosis in people with type 1 diabetes, focusing on the relationship between nutritional assessment, glycaemic status, c-peptide immunoreactivity (CPR) index and body composition. MATERIALS AND METHODS In total, 46 Japanese patients with type 1 diabetes were included, and dietary assessment from food photographs and ketone levels were evaluated before and after taking SGLT2is. The effect of diet on morning ketone levels was also investigated. RESULTS All patients had an increase in mean ketone concentrations after taking SGLT2is (before 0.12 ± 0.06 mmol/L, after 0.23 ± 0.16 mmol/L). A significant negative correlation was found between average morning ketone levels and age (r = -0.514, p < .001) and the CPR index (r = -0.523, p = .038) after taking SGLT2is. Using a mixed-effects model based on the results before starting the inhibitors, it was noted that both patient-to-patient and age, or patient-to-patient and capacity of insulin secretion, influenced the ketone levels. Multiple regression analysis showed that factors associated with the risk of increasing ketone levels after taking SGLT2is were younger age (β = -0.504, p = .003) and a low ratio of basal to bolus insulin (β = -0.420, p = .005). CONCLUSIONS When administering SGLT2is to patients with a low CPR index or younger patients with type 1 diabetes, adequate instructions to prevent ketosis should be given.

Abstract
AIMS This study aimed to investigate the effects of dapagliflozin on renal function of type 1 diabetes patients. METHODS This retrospective multicenter cohort study enrolled 295 type 1 diabetes patients. The primary outcome was defined as the change in the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) after 24 months of dapagliflozin treatment. The secondary outcomes were defined as the changes in HbA1c, daily insulin dosage, and urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR) after 24 months. RESULTS Finally, 255 patients were included in the final analysis (dapagliflozin group; 76 patients, non-use group; 179 patients), with a median eGFR of 74.0 mL/min/1.73m2. A 1:1 propensity score matching was performed, and 142 patients were analyzed in a linear mixed model. The least squares mean change in eGFR in the dapagliflozin group was -3.14 mL/min/1.73 m2 (95% CI: -5.62 to -0.66), a significantly smaller decrease than in the non-use group (-6.94 mL/min/1.73 m2 (95% CI: -9.39 to -4.50)) (p = 0.032). HbA1c level, total insulin dose, and UACR change were significantly lower in the dapagliflozin group than in the non-use group. CONCLUSIONS At 24 months, the decline in eGFR was significantly lower in the dapagliflozin group than in the non-use group without increasing diabetic ketoacidosis and hypoglycemia.

Abstract
Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) is a progressive autoimmune disease that starts long before a clinical diagnosis is made. The American Diabetes Association recognizes three stages: stage 1 (normoglycaemic and positive for autoantibodies to β-cell antigens); stage 2 (asymptomatic with dysglycaemia); and stage 3, which is defined by glucose levels consistent with the definition of diabetes mellitus. This Perspective focuses on the management of the proportion of individuals with early stage 3 T1DM who do not immediately require insulin; a stage we propose should be termed stage 3a. To date, this period of non-insulin-dependent T1DM has been largely unrecognized. Importantly, it represents a window of opportunity for intervention, as remaining at this stage might delay the need for insulin by months or years. Extending the insulin-free period and/or avoiding unnecessary insulin therapy are important goals, as there is no risk of hypoglycaemia during this period and the adherence burden on patients of glycaemic monitoring and daily adjustments for diet and exercise is substantially reduced. Recognizing the pressing need for guidance on adequate management of children and adults with stage 3a T1DM, we present our perspective on the subject, which needs to be tested in formal and adequately powered clinical trials.

Abstract
CONTEXT Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) and sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) are used off-label in the management of type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) in real-world practice as adjuvant therapies to insulin. There are few real-world data regarding efficacy and safety of this practice. OBJECTIVE This work aimed to determine the efficacy and safety of GLP-1RAs and sodium-glucose SGLT2is in the management of T1DM in real-world practice. METHODS A retrospective chart review was performed of all instances of GLP-1RA and/or SGLT2i use greater than 90 days in adult patients with T1DM at a single academic center. We report the clinical and safety outcomes over the duration of use. RESULTS We identified 104 patients with T1DM who ever used a GLP-1RA (76 patients) or SGLT2i (39 patients) for more than 90 days. After 1 year of therapy, GLP-1RA users had statistically significant reductions in weight (90.5 kg to 85.4 kg; P < .001), glycated hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) (7.7% to 7.3%; P = .007), and total daily dose of insulin (61.8 units to 41.9 units; P < .001). SGLT2i users had statistically significant reductions in HbA1c (7.9% to 7.3%; P < .001) and basal insulin (31.3 units to 25.6 units; P = .003). GLP-1RA users compared to SGLT2i users had greater reduction in weight (P = .027) while HbA1c reduction was comparable between the groups. Over a mean total duration of use of 29.5 months/patient for both groups, more SGLT2i users experienced diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) (12.8% vs 3.9%). Therapy was discontinued because of adverse events 26.9% of the time for GLP-1RA users vs 27.7% for SGLT2i users. CONCLUSION GLP-1RA and SGLT2i use in T1DM is associated with clinically relevant benefits. DKA remains a clinical concern with SGLT2i use, requiring careful patient selection and monitoring, with the risk to benefit ratio of treatment evaluated at an individual level.

Abstract
Diabetic kidney disease (DKD), a severe microvascular complication of diabetes mellitus, is the primary cause of end stage renal disease (ESRD). Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors are a class of novel anti-diabetic drugs for DKD, which have the potential to prevent renal function from failing. The involved mechanisms have garnered considerable attention. Besides hypoglycemic effect, it seems that various glucose-independent nephroprotective mechanisms also have a role. Among them, improvement in tubuloglomerular feedback is considered as the main reason, followed by reduced intraglomerular pressure and fluid load. In addition, reduced blood pressure, anti-inflammatory effects, nutrient deprivation signaling as well as improved endothelial function are also important. In the future, clinical trials and mechanistic studies might further complement the current knowledge on SGLT2 inhibitors and facilitate to translate these agents to clinical use. Here, we review these mechanisms of SGLT2 inhibitors with an emphasis on kidney protective effects.

Abstract
Coronavirus disease-COVID-19 (coronavirus disease 2019) has become the cause of the global pandemic in the last three years. Its etiological factor is SARS-CoV-2 (Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus type 2). Patients with diabetes (DM-diabetes mellitus), in contrast to healthy people not suffering from chronic diseases, are characterised by higher morbidity and mortality due to COVID-19. Patients who test positive for SARCoV-2 are at higher risk of developing hyperglycaemia. In this paper, we present, analyse and summarize the data on possible mechanisms underlying the increased susceptibility and mortality of patients with diabetes mellitus in the case of SARS-CoV-2 infection. However, further research is required to determine the optimal therapeutic management of patients with diabetes and COVID-19.

Abstract
Diversity in sex and gender are important considerations in the pathogenesis, prognostication, research, and management of diabetic kidney disease (DKD). Sex and gender differences in the disease risk, disease-specific mechanisms, and outcomes in DKD may be attributed to biological differences between males and females at the cellular and tissue level, inconsistencies in the diagnostic and assessment tools used in chronic kidney disease and DKD, as well societal differences in the way men, women, and gender-diverse individuals self-manage and interact with health care systems. This review outlines key considerations related to the impact of sex on DKD, specifically elaborating on how they contribute to observed differences in disease epidemiology, pathogenesis, and treatment strategies. We also highlight the effect of gender on DKD progression and care.

Abstract
Safety evaluation is a continual and iterative process throughout the drug development life cycle and requires long time horizons and large amounts of data to fully understand the safety profile of a medical product. Although randomized clinical trials (RCT) provide high-quality data for an initial assessment of safety signals, the safety signals may not all have been known at the time of approval because safety data collected from RCT only involve a relatively small number of subjects during a relatively short follow-up period. The increased accumulation of post-marketing real-world data (RWD) presents an opportunity to utilize them for safety decision-making; these include identifying new safety signals, further characterization of safety concerns that are raised in pre-marketing RCT, and further generalization of RCT findings to the broader patient populations not previously studied in RCT. In this paper, we use cardiovascular safety outcome trial for antidiabetic therapies as an illustrative example and discuss how integrative analysis of RCT and observational study data can answer regulatory concerns about cardiovascular risk in a post-marketing setting. A novel statistical analysis strategy is proposed to combine both sources of safety data in a data fusion approach. The proposed approach includes three stages: (1) feasibility analysis that uses an RCT to validate an observational study, applying estimand framework and emulating RCT with RWD; (2) integrative analysis that combines evidence from the RCT and observational study data cooperatively; and (3) sensitivity analysis that examines the consistency of the previous analyses. Two potential utilities of the proposed integrative analysis for the cardiovascular safety outcome trial are discussed.

Abstract
We herein present the case of a 45-year-old diabetic woman who developed diabetic ketoacidosis following the administration of dapagliflozin, a sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitor. The patient had been diagnosed with diabetes three years previously and was being treated with multiple daily injections of insulin. Metformin hydrochloride and dapagliflozin were added seven months and 11 months later, respectively. Her clinical course was uneventful until the onset of influenza. She then discontinued insulin and oral medications voluntarily. On arrival at the hospital, she was found to be in a state of ketoacidosis, and promptly received insulin and saline infusion. In retrospect, the initial amount of glucose infused was insufficient, and the hypoglycemia was thought to have been prolonged. This phenomenon may also have affected her long-term urinary glucose excretion. Her urinary L-type fatty acid-binding protein (L-FABP) level was found to be markedly elevated (48.8 μg/g·Cr, reference value < 8.4 μg/g·Cr) as was her urinary β2-microglobulin level (9,230 μg/L, reference value < 230 μg/L). Patients with SGLT-2 inhibitor-associated diabetic ketoacidosis often exhibit protracted hyperglycosuria, in which acute proximal renal tubular dysfunction is considered to be etiologically implicated.

Abstract
The kidney plays a major physiological role in glucose homeostasis but also contributes to the pathophysiology of type 2 diabetes (T2D), mediated by renal sodium glucose cotransporters (SGLTs). This recognition led to the development of SGLT2 inhibitors that inhibit proximal renal tubular renal glucose and sodium reabsorption. The glucoretic and natriuretic effect of SGLT2 inhibitors is associated with reductions in HbA1c levels, body weight, systolic blood pressure and triglycerides. Major vascular complications of T2D include cardiovascular disease and chronic kidney disease (CKD). Results from several cardiovascular outcome trials (CVOTs) with these drugs have highlighted benefits in reducing major adverse cardiovascular events by 11%, reducing the risk of cardiovascular death or hospitalization for heart failure (HF) by 23% and reducing the risk of progression of renal disease by 45%. Their cardiorenal benefits are apparent across a range of eGFRs (within CKD1-3 groups) and the presence or absence of ischaemic heart disease, HF or T2D. In patients with HF with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), similar risk reductions in cardiovascular death and HF events are also seen; results from studies in patients with HF with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) are awaited. Cardiorenal benefits have been recently reported in patients with CKD, regardless of the presence or absence of T2D. Indications for use of SGLT2 inhibitors have extended beyond glucose-lowering to a central role in cardiorenal protection. This review will first explore the mechanisms by which glycaemic control, weight loss and cardiovascular risk factors are modulated therapeutically with SGLT2 inhibitors. Subsequently, we outline putative mechanisms underpinning the cardiorenal benefits seen, including in HF and CKD, in the context of completed and ongoing clinical studies. Treatment strategies with SGLT2 inhibitors in individuals with CKD or HF, with and/or without T2D are increasingly appealing. Combination therapy with complementary therapeutic agents is also explored.

Abstract
As closed-loop insulin therapies emerge into clinical practice and evolve in medical research for type 1 diabetes (T1D) treatment, the limitations in these therapies become more evident. These gaps include unachieved target levels of glycated hemoglobin in some patients, postprandial hyperglycemia, the ongoing need for carbohydrate counting, and the lack of non-glycemic benefits (such as prevention of metabolic syndrome and complications). Multiple adjunct therapies have been examined to improve closed-loop systems, yet none have become a staple. Sodium-glucose-linked cotransporter inhibitors (SGLTi's) have been extensively researched in T1D, with average reductions in placebo-adjusted HbA1c by 0.39%, and total daily dose by approximately 10%. Unfortunately, many trials revealed an increased risk of diabetic ketoacidosis, as high as 5 times the relative risk compared to placebo. This narrative review discusses the proven benefits and risks of SGLTi in patients with T1D with routine therapy, what has been studied thus far in closed-loop therapy in combination with SGLTi, the potential benefits of SGLTi use to closed-loop systems, and what is required going forward to improve the benefit to risk ratio in these insulin systems.

Abstract
Background: The safe method of instructing insulin dose reduction in combination with
SGLT2 inhibitors, dapagliflozin for patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus
has not been clarified. In this study, we conducted a stratified, 2-arm,
parallel comparative study with the primary endpoint of decreasing the
frequency of hypoglycemia by instructing basal insulin dose reduction. Methods: The study has a multicenter, open-label, 2-arm design; 60 type 1 diabetes
mellitus patients are being recruited from 7 hospitals. Study subjects have
been stratified into 2 groups based on the ratio of basal insulin daily dose
(Basal) to total daily insulin dose (TDD). The subjects whose Basal/TDD
ratio is <0.4 are instructed not to reduce Basal but to reduce bolus
insulin dose by 10% (group A), and subjects with a Basal/TDD ratio >0.4
will be instructed to reduce Basal by 10% (group B). The primary outcome is
the daily frequency of hypoglycemia during the intervention period (SGLT2
inhibitor administration), as determined by self-monitoring of blood
glucose. We aimed to confirm a greater reduction in frequency of
hypoglycemia in group B (reduced Basal), than in group A (non-reduction of
Basal and reduced insulin effect levels by 10%). Baseline hypoglycemia was
set at 7 ± 6 times/month. The minimum sample size required to achieve a
significance of .05 for a 1-sided t-test with a statistical
power at 80% is determined. When the sample size is 26 patients in 1 group,
the percentage increase in hypoglycemia exceeds 60%, and the sample size is
considered sufficient. Discussion: In this pilot study, we assumed that, given a sufficient Basal, hypoglycemia
would be more frequent in patients with type 1 diabetes when combined with
SGLT2 inhibitors, provided the Basal was not reduced.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) is a potentially life-threatening but often preventable acute complication of type 1 diabetes (T1D). Understanding clinical and psychosocial characteristics of people with DKA, particularly those with multiple presentations, may aid the development of prevention strategies. AIMS To describe clinical, psychological and demographic factors in adults with DKA and particularly those factors associated with recurrent admissions. METHODS A retrospective analysis was performed of all admissions with DKA in people with T1D over a 4-year period from 1 November 2013 to 31 October 2017 at a metropolitan tertiary hospital in Australia. Potential cases were identified by International Classification of Diseases-10th Revision coding data. Data were then manually extracted by clinicians from the electronic medical record. RESULTS There were 154 clinician-adjudicated admissions for DKA among 128 people with T1D. Of these, 16 (13%) had multiple DKA admissions. Forty-one (32%) had a history of depression. The most common factors contributing to presentation included insulin omission (54%), infection (31%), alcohol excess (26%) and new diabetes diagnosis (16%). Compared to people with single admissions, those with recurrent DKA were more likely to smoke (69% vs 27%, P = 0.003), be unemployed (31% vs 11%, P = 0.04) and use illicit substances (44% vs 17%, P = 0.02). CONCLUSIONS There is a high prevalence of psychiatric illness, illicit substance use and social disadvantage among people admitted with DKA, particularly those with recurrent presentations. Insulin omission, often due to inappropriate sick day management, was the most common reason for DKA occurrence. Innovative multidisciplinary models of care are required to address these challenges.

Abstract
AIMS/INTRODUCTION This study aimed to investigate the risk of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) in insulin-treated type 1 diabetes patients administered sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors in real-world clinical practice. MATERIALS AND METHODS We carried out a real-world, retrospective, observational cohort study using Japanese Medical Data Vision, a diagnosis procedure combination database. We identified insulin-treated adult type 1 diabetes patients enrolled from December 2018 to October 2019. We assessed the incidence and risk of DKA in type 1 diabetes patients using SGLT2 inhibitors in an 'on-label' manner. Cox multivariate regression analyses were carried out to determine clinical factors linked to SGLT2 inhibitor-associated DKA. RESULTS Of 11,475 type 1 diabetes patients, 1,898 (16.5%) were prescribed SGLT2 inhibitors. DKA occurred in 139 (7.3%) of these patients, with 20.2 incidences per 100 person-years. These patients also showed significantly higher DKA rates than did those not receiving SGLT2 inhibitors (hazard ratio 1.66, 95% confidence interval 1.33-2.06; P < 0.001). The mean time until DKA onset in SGLT2 inhibitor-treated type 1 diabetes patients was 30.6 ± 30.1 days. The risk of SGLT2 inhibitor-associated DKA increased in type 1 diabetes patients irrespective of sex, age or body mass index. However, the risk did not increase in type 1 diabetes patients receiving continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion, which warrants further investigation because of the small number of type 1 diabetes patients receiving continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion. CONCLUSIONS 'On-label' SGLT2 inhibitor use might increase DKA risk among insulin-treated type 1 diabetes patients irrespective of sex, age or body mass index. Both type 1 diabetes patients and healthcare providers should be wary of DKA, especially during the first month of initiating SGLT2 inhibitors.

Abstract
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a global pandemic where several comorbidities have been shown to have a significant effect on mortality. Patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) have a higher mortality rate than non-DM patients if they get COVID-19. Recent studies have indicated that patients with a history of diabetes can increase the risk of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 infection. Additionally, patients without any history of diabetes can acquire new-onset DM when infected with COVID-19. Thus, there is a need to explore the bidirectional link between these two conditions, confirming the vicious loop between "DM/COVID-19". This narrative review presents (1) the bidirectional association between the DM and COVID-19, (2) the manifestations of the DM/COVID-19 loop leading to cardiovascular disease, (3) an understanding of primary and secondary factors that influence mortality due to the DM/COVID-19 loop, (4) the role of vitamin-D in DM patients during COVID-19, and finally, (5) the monitoring tools for tracking atherosclerosis burden in DM patients during COVID-19 and "COVID-triggered DM" patients. We conclude that the bidirectional nature of DM/COVID-19 causes acceleration towards cardiovascular events. Due to this alarming condition, early monitoring of atherosclerotic burden is required in "Diabetes patients during COVID-19" or "new-onset Diabetes triggered by COVID-19 in Non-Diabetes patients".

Topics include trends in diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA), hypoglycemia, and adapting ambulatory technologies for inpatient use. RECENT FINDINGS Rates of DKA in the United States are rising. Although socioeconomic status, health insurance coverage, and hemoglobin A1c are persistently associated with DKA in individuals with T1D, newer risk factors have also emerged. These include the off-label use of sodium-glucose cotransporter inhibitor medications, immune checkpoint inhibitor-induced diabetes, and infection with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2. Hypoglycemia is common among hospitalized patients with T1D. Use of validated hypoglycemia risk prediction models and multidisciplinary care initiatives can reduce the risk of inpatient hypoglycemia. Finally, continuous glucose monitoring is being adapted for use in the hospital setting and has shown promise during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. SUMMARY Evidence-based treatment algorithms, risk prediction calculators, multidisciplinary interventions, and wearable technology hold promise for improved outcomes in hospitalized patients with T1D.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Insulin is the mainstay of treatment in people living with type 1 diabetes mellitus due to an immune-mediated loss of beta cells. Yet despite advances in insulin therapy and other technological advances, glycemic control remains difficult to achieve. Therefore, we aim to highlight risks and benefits of adjunctive therapies that may improve type 1 diabetes care. RECENT FINDINGS We identified studies assessing clinical outcomes of adjunctive therapies that are both Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved and off-label in type 1 diabetes. Adjunctive therapies reviewed included metformin, pramlintide, glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists and sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors. SUMMARY Although insulin is required in people living with type 1 diabetes mellitus, adjunctive therapies may positively impact glycemic control, reduce insulin requirements and lead to weight loss. In addition, the risk of hypoglycemia, gastrointestinal side effects and diabetes ketoacidosis may be increased with the use of these adjunctive therapies. Pramlintide is currently the only FDA-approved adjunctive therapy, whereas others require continued research to better understand risk-to-benefit ratio.

Abstract
The Sentinel System is a national electronic postmarketing resource established by the US Food and Drug Administration to support assessment of the safety and effectiveness of marketed medical products. It has built a large, multi-institutional, distributed data network that contains comprehensive electronic health data, covering about 700 million person-years of longitudinal observation time nationwide. With its sophisticated infrastructure and a large selection of flexible analytic tools, the Sentinel System permits rapid and secure analyses, while preserving patient privacy and health-system autonomy. The Sentinel System also offers enhanced capabilities, including accessing full-text medical records, supporting randomized clinical trials embedded in healthcare delivery systems, and facilitating effective collection of patient-reported data using mobile devices, among many other research programs. The nephrology research community can use the infrastructure, tools, and data that this national resource offers for evidence generation. This review summarizes the Sentinel System and its ability to rapidly generate high-quality, real-world evidence; discusses the program's experience in, and potential for, addressing gaps in kidney care; and outlines avenues for conducting research, leveraging this national resource in collaboration with Sentinel investigators.

Metabolic Effects of an SGLT2 Inhibitor (Dapagliflozin) During a Period of Acute Insulin Withdrawal and Development of Ketoacidosis in People With Type 1 Diabetes. Diabetes Care 2020; 43:2128-2136. [PMID: 32641376 DOI: 10.2337/dc19-2579] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/02/2020] [Accepted: 05/30/2020] [Indexed: 02/03/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine the effect of the sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitor dapagliflozin on glucose flux, lipolysis, and ketone body concentrations during insulin withdrawal in people with type 1 diabetes. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS A double-blind, placebo-controlled crossover study with a 4-week washout period was performed in 12 people with type 1 diabetes using insulin pump therapy. Participants received dapagliflozin or placebo in random order for 7 days. Stable isotopes were infused to measure the glucose Ra, Rd, and lipolysis. At isotopic steady state, insulin was withdrawn, and the study was terminated after 600 min or earlier if blood glucose reached 18 mmol/L, bicarbonate <15 mmol/L, venous pH <7.35, or capillary ketones >5.0 mmol/L. RESULTS At baseline, glucose Ra was significantly higher for the dapagliflozin group than the placebo group. Following insulin withdrawal, plasma glucose concentrations at the end point were significantly lower with dapagliflozin than placebo and glucose Rd area under the curve (AUC)0-180 min and β-hydroxybutyrate (BOHB) AUC0-180 min were significantly higher. There was a small but significantly higher glycerol Ra (measure of lipolysis) AUC0-180 min with dapagliflozin. Nonesterified fatty acid concentrations were not different between treatments. When divided by BMI >27 and <27 kg/m2, basal glucose Ra, BOHB, and glycerol Ra AUC0-180 min were significantly higher in the low-BMI group with dapagliflozin treatment versus the low-BMI group with placebo. CONCLUSIONS During insulin withdrawal, the increase in BOHB with dapagliflozin may be partially due to increased lipolysis. However, reduced renal excretion, reduced BOHB uptake by peripheral tissues, or a metabolic switch to increased ketogenesis within the liver may also play a role.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To estimate the rate of lower limb amputation among adults newly prescribed canagliflozin according to age and cardiovascular disease. DESIGN Population based, new user, cohort study. DATA SOURCES Two commercial and Medicare claims databases, 2013-17. PARTICIPANTS Patients newly prescribed canagliflozin were propensity score matched 1:1 with patients newly prescribed a glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist. Hazard ratios and rate differences per 1000 person years were computed for the rate of lower limb amputation in the following four groups: group 1, patients aged less than 65 years without baseline cardiovascular disease; group 2, patients aged less than 65 with baseline cardiovascular disease; group 3, patients aged 65 or older without baseline cardiovascular disease; group 4, patients aged 65 or older with baseline cardiovascular disease. Within each group, pooled hazard ratio and rate difference per 1000 person years were calculated by meta-analysis. INTERVENTION Canagliflozin versus a GLP-1 agonist. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Lower limb amputation requiring surgery. RESULTS Across the three databases, 310 840 propensity score matched adults who started canagliflozin or a GLP-1 agonist were identified. The hazard ratio and rate difference per 1000 person years for amputation in adults receiving canagliflozin compared with a GLP-1 agonist for each group was: group 1, hazard ratio 1.09 (95% confidence interval 0.83 to 1.43), rate difference 0.12 (-0.31 to 0.55); group 2, hazard ratio 1.18 (0.86 to 1.62), rate difference 1.06 (-1.77 to 3.89); group 3, hazard ratio 1.30 (0.52 to 3.26), rate difference 0.47 (-0.73 to 1.67); and group 4, hazard ratio 1.73 (1.30 to 2.29), rate difference 3.66 (1.74 to 5.59). CONCLUSIONS The increase in rate of amputation with canagliflozin was small and most apparent on an absolute scale for adults aged 65 or older with baseline cardiovascular disease, resulting in a number needed to treat for an additional harmful outcome of 556 patients at six months (that is, 18 more amputations per 10 000 people who received canagliflozin). These results help to contextualize the risk of amputation with canagliflozin in routine care.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a major chronic disease with ever-increasing prevalence and a variety of serious complications for persons with DM, such as cardiovascular and/or renal complications. New glucose-lowering therapies like DPP-4 inhibitors, GLP-1 receptor agonists, and SGLT-2 inhibitors have undergone cardiovascular outcome trials (CVOTs) for type 2 diabetes (T2DM), as by the guidance of the FDA. However, CVOTs for type 1 diabetes (T1DM) are generally lacking. Both, persons with T1DM and T2DM, are burdened with a high incidence of cardiovascular and renal disease such as atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) and diabetic kidney disease (DKD). Although pathologies of the two types of diabetes cannot be compared, similar mechanisms and risk factors like sex, hyperglycaemia, hypertension, endothelial damage and (background) inflammation have been identified in the development of CVD and DKD in T1DM and T2DM. Recent CVOTs in T2DM demonstrated that SGLT-2 inhibitors, besides exerting a glucose-lowering effect, have beneficial effects on cardiovascular and renal mechanisms. These mechanisms are reviewed in detail in this manuscript and evaluated for possible transferability to, and thus efficacy in, T1DM. Our review of current literature suggests that SGLT-2 inhibitors have cardioprotective benefits beyond their glucose-lowering effects. As this mainly has been observed in CVOTs in T2DM, further investigation in the adjunctive therapy for type 1 diabetes is suggested.

Abstract
Patients with diabetes have been reported to have enhanced susceptibility to severe or fatal COVID-19 infections, including a high risk of being admitted to intensive care units with respiratory failure and septic complications. Given the global prevalence of diabetes, affecting over 450 million people worldwide and still on the rise, the emerging COVID-19 crisis poses a serious threat to an extremely large vulnerable population. However, the broad heterogeneity and complexity of this dysmetabolic condition, with reference to etiologic mechanisms, degree of glycemic derangement and comorbid associations, along with the extensive sexual dimorphism in immune responses, can hamper any patient generalization. Even more relevant, and irrespective of glucose-lowering activities, DPP4 inhibitors and GLP1 receptor agonists may have a favorable impact on the modulation of viral entry and overproduction of inflammatory cytokines during COVID-19 infection, although current evidence is limited and not univocal. Conversely, SGLT2 inhibitors may increase the likelihood of COVID-19-related ketoacidosis decompensation among patients with severe insulin deficiency. Mindful of their widespread popularity in the management of diabetes, addressing potential benefits and harms of novel antidiabetic drugs to clinical prognosis at the time of a COVID-19 pandemic deserves careful consideration.

Abstract
Even before sodium-glucose cotransporter inhibitors (SGLTi) became popular agents for the treatment of people with type 2 diabetes (T2DM), clinicians had explored their potential as adjunct therapies in type 1 diabetes (T1DM). Several trials have demonstrated improved glycemic control (compared with placebo) and a decrease in glucose variability with a clinically relevant increase of time in range. In addition, weight loss and decreased systolic blood pressure are observed. The magnitude of the effects observed depends on the type of SGLTi, the dose administrated, and the duration of observation in the studies. As seen in T2DM, there was an increase in the risk of urogenital mycotic infections, but no increase in the risk of severe hypoglycemia. However, concerns arose regarding an increase in incidence of diabetic ketoacidosis. Mitigation strategies, including careful patient selection, extensive education of patients and (para)medical personnel, adequate insulin dose titration, and the adoption of a ketone-centered approach, are suggested. In different areas of the world, SGLTi are approved for use in T1DM with restrictions concerning patient selection and SGLTi dose. Real-world data on the effect of introduction of SGLTi in people with T1DM will yield insight on the robustness of glycemic effects over time, and allow us to determine whether the positive risk-benefit profile observed in clinical trials can be translated to the real world.
