#SGLT2i & #GLP1RA; not just for the heart... or kidneys... or diabetes! In ppl w DM2, GLP-1RAs & SGLT2is were associated w ⬇️ risk of Alzheimer disease & related dementias vs other glucose-lowering drugs. @robmentz.bsky.social @jama.com @noshreza.bsky.social @jimjanuzzi.bsky.social ja.ma/3E3vWRn

#LBCT #SUMMIT trial #AHA24 💥 Treatment with tirzepatide led to ⤵️risk of a composite of death from cardiovascular 🫀 causes or worsening heart failure 🆚 placebo and improved health status in patients with HFpEF+obesity 📎 @NEJM www.nejm.org/doi/full/10....

BPROAD presented at #AHA24 showed in those w/ type 2 diabetes & elevated systolic blood pressure (SBP), intensive SBP lowering (<120 mmHg) reduced major adverse CV events (MACE) by 21% compared to standard treatment (<140 mmHg). Watch this for one attendee’s take on the data.
