Background: Cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy (CAN) is a common complication of diabetes and is associated with cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Despite its prevalence, it is usually underdiagnosed. Objective to assess frequency of CAN in type 2 diabetes, treated at the Diabetology Service at Cordoba Hospital, Argentina.Methods: Cross-sectional study was conducted from May 2015 to May 2016. Cardiovascular Autonomic Tests (Ewing´s battery) were performed: response to Valsalva maneuver, expiration-to-inspiration ratio (E/I ratio), standing to lying flat and postural hypotension.Results: 100 type 2 diabetes patients, 53% females. The mean age and diabetes duration 52 years old and 8.4 years, respectively. Hemoglobin A1c level of 8.7% and 47% were insulin-requiring type 2 diabetes patients. 29% had early CAN, 54% confirmed CAN (10% severe CAN) and 17% normal cardiovascular tests. Confirmed CAN was higher in those with longer duration of diabetes; longer duration of insulin therapy, older patients and severe hypoglycemia events was higher in those with confirmed CAN versus without CAN or early CAN (p 0.003). The risk factors associated were hypertension OR 2.55 (p 0.02), peripheral neuropathy OR 11.7 (p 7% OR 2.57 (p 0, 03).Conclusions: frequency of CAN was high, was associated with hypertension, microvascular complications, older age, poor metabolic control, longer duration of disease and insulin therapy. Patients with a higher risk of developing CAN should be identified, in order to reduce the impact of this complication.

Background and aims: Recent diabetes and cardiology guidelines recommend blood glucose (BG)-lowering medications with proven cardiovascular (CV) benefit in people with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and established CV disease (CVD) or at high/very high CV risk. CAPTURE was a cross-sectional, observational study of CVD prevalence in adults with T2D across 13 countries in 2019. This pre-specified secondary analysis assessed the proportion of adults with T2D and CVD using a BG-lowering medication with an approved CV indication in Argentinian population. Materials and methods: Detailed demographic and clinical data were collected for adults with T2D at a single, routine health visit to primary or specialist care (Dec 2018 – Sept 2019). In this analysis, participants were grouped by CVD status (no CVD, any CVD, atherosclerotic CVD [ASCVD]). BG-lowering medication use was summarised descriptively by approved CV indication status per the current (2020) FDA label and in line with ADA/EASD guidelines, as a glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1 RA: dulaglutide, liraglutide, semaglutide) or sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitor (SGLT2i: canagliflozin, dapagliflozin, empagliflozin).

The vascular complications typical of diabetes can appear even in early stages such as fasting or postprandial glucose intolerance. Therefore, regular screening and early detection of these complications have a high clinical significance. Central or visceral obesity is commonly associated with a set of risk factors (hypertension, dysglycemia, dyslipidemia) that increases the risk of diabetes and cardiovascular disease; precisely the term metabolic syndrome (MS) is used to describe this association of factors.

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the main cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2). However, scarce specific data are available about the prevalence of CVD in that population in daily clinical practice. The CAPTURE study investigated the contemporary prevalence of CVD in a representative sample of DM2 population in 13 countries, distributed over 5 continents (n = 9823). Among the 834 Argentinian participants, the CVD prevalence was 41.5% (n = 347) (95% confidence interval [95%CI]: 38.4-44.7%), while worldwide rate was 34.8% (n = 3582) (95%CI: 32.7-36.8%). In most cases, it was categorized as atherosclerotic CVD 35.3% (n = 295) (95%CI: 32.3; -38.4%). Likewise, the rate of use of antidiabetic drugs with proven cardiovascular benefits was low, both in Argentina (12.8%: n = 107) and global data (21.9%; n = 2151).La enfermedad cardiovascular (ECV) es la principal causa de morbimortalidad en los pacientes con diabetes mellitus tipo 2 (DM2). Sin embargo, se dispone de escasos datos específicos sobre la prevalencia de ECV en esta población en la práctica clínica cotidiana. El estudio CAPTURE investigó la prevalencia contemporánea de ECV en una muestra representativa de la población con diagnóstico de DM2 en 13 países, distribuidos en 5 continentes (n = 9823). Entre los 834 participantes de Argentina, la prevalencia de ECV fue de 41.5% (n = 347) (intervalo de confianza del 95% [IC95%]: 38.4-44.7%), mientras que a nivel mundial la prevalencia fue 34.8% (n = 3582) (IC95%: 32.7-36.8%). La mayoría de los casos fue categorizada como ECV aterosclerótica: 35.3% (n = 295) (IC95%:32.3-38.4%). Asimismo, la utilización de medicamentos antidiabéticos con beneficios cardiovasculares comprobados fue baja: 12.8% (n = 107) y 21.9% (n = 2151) en Argentina y a nivel global respectivamente.

Lower-income populations are hit harder by the diabetes epidemic as regards both prevalence and the risk of complications. Food Insecurity is one of the mechanisms through which poverty may predispose people with low socio-economic status to poorer control and higher complication rates. The United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization defined food security as "the right to have access to sufficient nutritional and culturally acceptable food choices." Adults suffering from diabetes with limited income have a 40% greater chance of having food insecurity and an inadequate blood glucose control. Such patients have a two-fold greater risk of developing severe hypoglycemia. In addition, several studies have shown that social vulnerability resulting from food insecurity, low socioeconomic status, low educational levels, and poor health education is an independent risk factor for hypoglycemia, even after conventional predictors are controlled. This review analyzes the literature available on social vulnerability as a non-conventional risk factor for development of hypoglycemia in diabetic subjects.

Introducción: las últimas guías de las sociedades de diabetes y cardiología recomiendan medicamentos hipoglucemiantes con beneficio cardiovascular (CV) comprobado en personas con diabetes tipo 2 (DM2) y enfermedad CV establecida (ECV) o con alto/muy alto riesgo CV. El estudio CAPTURE fue un ensayo observacional, transversal sobre la prevalencia de ECV en adultos con DM2 en 13 países durante 2019.Objetivos: este análisis secundario preespecificado evaluó la proporción de adultos en población Argentina con DM2 y ECV que usaban un medicamentos para reducir la glucemia con una indicación CV aprobada.Materiales y métodos: se recopilaron datos demográficos y clínicos detallados de adultos con DM2 en una única visita médica de rutina en atención primaria o especializada (diciembre de 2018 a septiembre de 2019). En este análisis, los participantes se agruparon según la presencia y tipo de ECV (sin ECV, con ECV y con ECV aterosclerótica [ECVA]). Lo descripto sobre el uso de medicación hipoglucemiante con beneficio CV se basa en la indicación aprobada actual (2020) de la FDA, alineado con las recomendaciones ADA/EASD para agonista del receptor del péptido 1 similar al glucagón (AR GLP-1: dulaglutida, liraglutida, semaglutidasc. semanal) o inhibidor del cotransportador-2 de sodio-glucosa (iSGLT2: canagliflozina, dapagliflozina, empagliflozina).

Se realizó Test Autonómicos Cardiovasculares: Maniobra de Valsalva (MV), Respiración Profunda (RP), Razón 30/15 e Hipotensión ortostática.Se reclutaron 100 pacientes con DM2. 53 % sexo femenino. Edad promedio 52 años, IMC 30,9; HbA1c 8,7 % y evolución de la enfermedad 8,4 años. El 17 % presentaron test normales. El 29 % tenía NAC temprana y 54% NAC confirmada (10 % NAC severa). Los pacientes con NAC confirmada tenían mayor tiempo de evolución (11 vs 5 años ), mayor duración de insulinoterapia (5 vs 1,5 años ), mayor edad ( 54 vs 49 años ) y mayor riesgo de hipoglucemias severas comparado con pacientes sin NAC o NAC temprana (p 0,003).Factores de riesgo asociados hipertensión arterial OR 2,55 (p 0,02), neuropatía periférica OR 11,7 (plt;0,0001) , retinopatía OR 9,03 (p 0,001), nefropatía OR 3,12 (p 0,03) y HbA1cgt; 7% OR 2,57(p 0,03).Hubo una alta frecuencia de NAC, se asoció con hipertensión, complicaciones microvasculares, mayor edad, duración de la enfermedad, de la insulinoterapia y mal control metabólico. Se debería identificar a pacientes con mayor riesgo, para reducir su aparición e impacto.
