Hybrid closed-loop insulin therapy in patients with suboptimally controlled type 1 diabetes (T1D) helps to keep their sugar levels within range, a 12-week multicentre, multinational trial has shown, supporting the utility of closed-loop technology in clinical practice.
The GLP-1* receptor agonist lixisenatide may slow the progression of micro- and macroalbuminuria in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and acute coronary syndrome, based on an exploratory analysis of the ELIXA** trial presented at EASD 2018.
The FOURIER trial previously demonstrated that adding the proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) inhibitor evolocumab to background statin therapy lowered LDL-cholesterol (LDL-C) below target levels and significantly reduced the risks of cardiovascular (CV) events in patients with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). At the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) Congress 2018 in Munich, Germany, experts reiterated how evolocumab helps lower LDL-C levels and reduces CV events even in patients with various comorbidities.

Individuals who opt for a plant-based diet over an animal-based one may reduce their risk of developing insulin resistance or incident type 2 diabetes (T2D), according to a study from the Netherlands.
Adding insulin degludec/liraglutide to SGLT2i* may improve glycaemic control in patients with uncontrolled type 2 diabetes (T2D), according to the DUAL IX** trial presented at EASD 2018.
