The current findings may point to a disconnect between how increased readiness for independent self‐care may translate into better perceived diabetes self‐management, but not into better HbA1c. In an effort to optimize HbA1c in teens with type 1 diabetes, future research is needed to design interventions that align perceived readiness for independent self‐care with self‐care behaviours that improve HbA1c (Diabetic Medicine) Tirzepatide significantly reduced A1C and body weight in people with type 2 diabetes in two phase 3 trials from Lilly’s SURPASS program In a large pharmacovigilance database, AF was robustly and consistently reported more frequently for diabetes medications other than SGLT2i. This finding complements available evidence from trials supporting a protective role of SGLT2i against the occurrence of AF (Cardiovascular Diabetology) The presence of DM on top of AF was associated with substantially increased risk for all-cause or CV mortality, sudden cardiac death and excess morbidity (Cardiovascular Diabetology) In this commentary we discuss how we should interpret the effects of cardiometabolic therapeutics on vascular surrogate markers, based on viewpoints learned from the results of clinical trials on dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors (Cardiovascular Diabetology)
