Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibition improves left ventricular function in chronic kidney disease.
PURPOSE Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is a common comorbidity in people with chronic kidney disease (CKD) for which no evidence-based treatment currently exists. Recently, a group of anti-hyperglycemic agents used in the treatment of Type 2 diabetes, termed incretin-based therapies, have come under scrutiny for their putative glucose-independent effects on cardiac funct...
متن کاملThe use of dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors in patients with type 2 diabetes & chronic kidney disease
There is a need for treatment options in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and kidney disease to achieve glucose targets without risk of hypoglycemia. This article describes management options for these patients using glucose-lowering therapies, in particular dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors.
متن کامل[Left ventricular hypertrophy in chronic kidney disease].
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is associated with increased cardiovascular (CV) risk. Left ventricular (LV) hypertrophy (LVH), together with coronary artery disease, has been considered the main target of intervention. LVH is highly prevalent in CKD even in early stages, as compared to general non-selected population. This is mainly due to the multifactorial pathogenesis of LVH in renal patients ...
متن کاملDipeptidyl peptidase-4 and kidney fibrosis in diabetes
Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is the most common cause of end-stage kidney disease worldwide and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality in patients with both type 1 and type 2 diabetes. Recent evidence revealed that dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors may exhibit a protective effect against DN. In fact, the kidney is the organ where the DPP-4 activity is the highest level per or...
متن کاملDipeptidyl Peptidase-4 Inhibitor
In the United States, nearly 13% of adults aged 20 years and older have type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), and its prevalence is still increasing (1,2). Microvascular and macrovascular abnormalities are common in patients with T2DM and are related to the severity and duration of hyperglycemia (3–5). Thus, treatment of hyperglycemia is an important way to prevent or delay diabetic vascular complic...
