Diario clinico

    Gli interventi clinici sono stati i seguenti:

    • sostituita l’insulina con repaglinide, mantenendo
      un discreto compenso dei valori glicemici;

    • considerato il buon compenso cardiorespiratorio è stata
      ridotta la terapia diuretica;
    • ecocardiogramma di controllo: (EF=50%);

    • per bradicardia sinusale è stata sospesa la terapia con
      ivabradina, instaurata durante il ricovero ospedaliero;

    • per insonnia è stata inizialmente praticata terapia con
      melatonina, poi sostituita per inefficacia con zolpidem,
      risultato invece efficace

These estimates are based on ADAG data of ;2,700 glucose measurements over 3 months per A1C
measurement in 507 adults with type 1, type 2, and no diabetes. The correlation between A1C and average
glucose was 0.92 (ref. 77). A calculator for converting A1C results into eAG, in either mg/dL or mmol/L, is
available at http://professional.diabetes .org/eAG.
Ranges of self-monitored blood glucose
          values for various A1c goals

It is not recommended to achieve target fasting glucose values below 70 mg/dL. ** This average uses both
fasting and post-prandial blood glucose readings from continuous glucose monitors or from 7-point daily testing.

Treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus in the elderly patient

   The overall goals of diabetes management in older adults
   are similar to those in younger adults and include
   management of both hyperglycemia and risk factors.

   However, in frail elderly patients with diabetes, avoidance
   of hypoglycemia, hypotension, and drug interactions due to
   polypharmacy are of even greater concern than in younger
   patients with diabetes. In addition, management of
   coexisting medical conditions is important, as it influences
   their ability to perform self-management.

         SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATIONS

The appropriate target for hemoglobin A1C (A1C) in
fit elderly patients who have a life expectancy of
over 10 years should be similar to those developed
for younger adults (

                                   Clinical Frailty Scale ©
•   Background: There is no single generally accepted clinical definition of frailty. Previously
    developed tools to assess frailty that have been shown to be predictive of death or need for
    entry into an institutional facility have not gained acceptance among practising clinicians. We
    aimed to develop a tool that would be both predictive and easy to use.
•   Methods: We developed the 9-point Clinical Frailty Scale© and applied it and other established
    tools that measure frailty to 2305 elderly patients who participated in the second stage of the
    Canadian Study of Health and Aging (CSHA). We followed this cohort prospectively; after 5 years,
    we determined the ability of the Clinical Frailty Scale© to predict death or need for institutional
    care, and correlated the results with those obtained from other established tools.
•   Results: The CSHA Clinical Frailty Scale was highly correlated (r = 0.80) with the Frailty Index.
    Each 1-category increment of our scale significantly increased the medium-term risks of death
    (21.2% within about 70 mo, 95% confidence interval [CI] 12.5%–30.6%) and entry into an
    institution (23.9%, 95% CI 8.8%–41.2%) in multivariable models that adjusted for age, sex and
    education Analyses of receiver operating characteristic curves showed that our Clinical Frailty
    Scale© performed better than measures of cognition, function or comorbidity in assessing risk
    for death (areaunder the curve 0.77 for 18-month and 0.70 for 70-month mortality).
•   Interpretation: Frailty is a valid and clinically important construct that is recognizable by
    physicians. Clinical judgments about frailty can yield useful predictive information.

Vecchi antidiabetici orali
Biguanides
• They reduce hyperglycemia by decreasing hepatic
  gluconeogenesis (primary effect) and increasing peripheral
  insulin sensitivity (secondary effect).
• They do not increase insulin levels or cause weight gain.
• Alone, they rarely cause hypoglycemia.
• Are absorbed from the intestines and are not bound to plasma
  proteins.
• They are not metabolized and are rapidly eliminated by the
  kidneys.
• Drug levels increase markedly in renal insufficiency.
• Lactic acidosis is a rare, but serious, complication that may
  occur with drug accumulation

Sulfanylureas

• Are time-honored insulin secretagogues (ie, oral hypoglycemic
  agents). Sulfonylureas function by stimulating the release of
  insulin from pancreatic beta cells and can usually reduce
  HbA1c by 1-2% and blood glucose concentrations by about
  20%.
• The most common adverse effect limiting its use is
  hypoglycemia, especially in older adults with impaired renal
  function, hepatic dysfunction, and those with poor oral intake.
• To avoid the use of long-acting sulfonylureas (chlorpropamide,
  glyburide, and glimepiride) in elderly adults and to prefer to
  use a short-acting sulfonylurea, such as glipizide.

Meglitinides (Repaglinide, Nateglinide)
• They work by stimulating insulin release from pancreatic beta cells
• Have much more short-acting insulin secretagogues than sulfonylureas
• Have similar or slightly less efficacy in decreasing glycemia than
  sulfonylureas
• Have similar risk for weight gain as sulfonylureas but possibly less risk of
  hypoglycemia
• Unlike nateglinide, repaglinide is principally metabolized by the liver,
  with less than 10 percent renally excreted. Dose adjustments with this
  agent do not appear to be necessary in patients with renal insufficiency.
  In addition, repaglinide is somewhat more effective in lowering A1C than
  nateglinide.
• Thus, repaglinide could be considered as initial therapy in a patient with
  chronic kidney disease who is intolerant of metformin and sulfonylureas

Alpha-glucosidase inhibitors
                (Acarbose and miglitol)

• Inhibit the gastrointestinal alpha-glucosidases that convert
  dietary starch and other complex carbohydrates into
  monosaccharides, thereby slowing the absorption of glucose,
  which results in a slower rise in postprandial blood glucose
  concentrations.

• Have not been widely tested in elderly diabetic patients, but
  are likely to be fairly safe and effective.
• The main side effects that limit their use are flatulence and
  diarrhea, which are very common

Nuovi antidiabetici orali
Thiazolidinediones (rosiglitazone and pioglitazone)

• Reduce insulin resistance in the periphery (ie, they sensitize
  muscle and fat to the actions of insulin) and perhaps to a small
  degree in the liver (ie, insulin sensitizers, antihyperglycemics).
  They activate peroxisome proliferator–activated receptor (PPAR)
  gamma, a nuclear transcription factor that is important in fat cell
  differentiation and fatty acid metabolism. The major action of
  thiazolidinediones is probably actually fat redistribution. These
  drugs may have beta-cell preservation properties.

Thiazolidinediones (rosiglitazone and pioglitazone)

•   Have moderate glycemic efficacy
•   They can be given to patients who have impaired renal function, are well
    tolerated in older adults, and do not cause hypoglycemia. However,
    thiazolidinediones should not be used in patients with class III or IV heart
    failure. In addition, limited experience, high cost, and concerns regarding
    fluid retention, congestive heart failure, MI, and fractures limit their
    usefulness, particularly in the elderly. If a thiazolidinedione is to be used as
    therapy, pioglitazone is preferred because of the greater concern about
    atherogenic lipid profiles and a potential increased risk for cardiovascular
    events with rosiglitazone.
•   New concerns regarding increased risk for bladder cancer with pioglitazone,
    in addition to fluid retention and bone loss, have led to decreased enthusiasm
    for its use

Amylinomimetics

These agents mimic endogenous amylin effects by delaying gastric
emptying, decreasing postprandial glucagon release, and
modulating appetite

• Pramlintide
      – is a synthetic analog of amylin that is administered by mealtime
        subcutaneous injection with insulin. It is available for the treatment of both
        type 1 and insulin-treated type 2 diabetes. It requires multiple
        subcutaneous injections and, therefore Its role in the management of
        diabetes in the elderly is limited

Sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2)
                     inhibitors
•   SGLT2 is expressed in the proximal tubule and mediates reabsorption of
    approximately 90 percent of the filtered glucose load.

•   SGLT2 inhibitors promote the renal excretion of glucose and thereby
    modestly lower elevated blood glucose levels in patients with type 2
    diabetes.

•   Canagliflozin (Invokana) lowers the renal glucose threshold (ie, the plasma
    glucose concentration that exceeds the maximum glucose reabsorption
    capacity of the kidney). Lowering the renal glucose threshold results in
    increased urinary glucose excretion.
•   Dapagliflozin (Farxiga), reduces glucose reabsorption in the proximal renal
    tubules and lowers the renal threshold for glucose, thereby increasing
    urinary glucose excretion.

Sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2)
                        inhibitors
•   Decrease in blood pressure and weight,
•   Low incidence of hypoglycemia
•   Canagliflozin should not be given to patients with eGFR
Sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2)
                     inhibitors

• SGLT2 inhibitors reduced A1C by approximately 0.5 to 0.7
  percentage points (mean difference versus active comparators -
  0.06 percent), making them relatively weak glucose-lowering
  agents, similar in potency to the DPP-4 inhibitors.

• We do not recommend sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2)
  inhibitors for routine use in patients with type 2 diabetes. SGLT2
  inhibitors may play a role as a third-line agent in patients with
  inadequate glycemic control on two oral agents (eg, metformin
  and sulfonylurea) if for some reason combination metformin and
  insulin is not a therapeutic option.

Glucagonlike Peptide-1 (GLP-1) Agonists
      (Exenatide and Liraglutide)
Incretins/GLP-1 mimetics
•   Incretins are gut-derived peptides secreted in response to meals; the
    incretin effect refers to the augmented release of insulin from oral ingestion
    of glucose compared with an i.v. glucose challenge. The two major incretins
    are GLP-1, which is produced by the neuroendocrine L cells of the ileum and
    colon, and glucose-dependent insulinotropic peptide, which is produced by
    the K cells of the duodenum and jejunum.
•   Both are released rapidly after a meal and they limit postprandial glucose
    excursions.
•   Incretins stimulate insulin production from pancreatic b cells and GLP-1 also
    decreases glucagon secretion, slows gastric emptying, and suppresses
    appetite. GLP-1 may also reduce b-cell apoptosis and promote b-cell
    proliferation
Physiology of GLP-1 secretion and action on GLP-1 receptors
                                   in different organs and tissues
                          (Richard E. Pratley and Matthew Gilbert, The Review of Diabetic Studies 2008)

GLP- 1 is produced postprandially by intestinal L-cells. Through activation of insulin receptors on beta-cells GLP-1 (like GIP) stimulates
insulin biosynthesis and secretion and inhibits glucagon secretion in the pancreas, which in turn reduces hepatic gluconeogenesis. GLP-1
release also exerts protective effects on heart and brain. Insulin sensitivity in the periphery is increased by improved insulin signaling and
reduced gluconeogenesis. Figure modified with permission from Cell Metabolism [3].

Exenatide once weekly versus liraglutide once daily in patients with
        type 2 diabetes (DURATION-6): a randomised, open-label study

Abstract
BACKGROUND: Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists exenatide and liraglutide have been shown to improve
glycaemic control and reduce bodyweight in patients with type 2 diabetes. We compared the efficacy and safety
of exenatide once weekly with liraglutide once daily in patients with type 2 diabetes.
METHODS: We did a 26 week, open-label, randomised, parallel-group study at 105 sites in 19 countries between
Jan 11, 2010, and Jan 17, 2011. Patients aged 18 years or older with type 2 diabetes treated with lifestyle
modification and oral antihyperglycaemic drugs were randomly assigned (1:1), via a computer-generated
randomisation sequence with a voice response system, to receive injections of once-daily liraglutide (1·8 mg) or
once-weekly exenatide (2 mg). Participants and investigators were not masked to treatment assignment. The
primary endpoint was change in glycated haemoglobin (HbA(1c)) from baseline to week 26. Analysis was by
intention to treat. This trial is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT01029886.
FINDINGS: Of 912 randomised patients, 911 were included in the intention-to-treat analysis (450 liraglutide, 461
exenatide). The least-squares mean change in HbA(1c) was greater in patients in the liraglutide group (-1·48%, SE
0·05; n=386) than in those in the exenatide group (-1·28%, 0·05; 390) with the treatment difference (0·21%, 95%
CI 0·08-0·33) not meeting predefined non-inferiority criteria (upper limit of CI
Insulin vs GLP-1 analogues in poorly controlled Type 2
            diabetic subjects on oral therapy: a meta-analysis
                     Abdul-Ghani MA et al. J Endocrinol Invest. 2013 Mar
Abstract
AIM: To compare insulin and GLP-1 analogues therapy on glycemic control in poorly controlled Type 2
diabetes (T2DM) subjects failing on oral therapy.
METHODS: The electronic database PubMed was systematically searched for randomized controlled
trial (RCT) with duration >16 weeks comparing the addition of insulin therapy vs glucagon-like peptide
(GLP-1) analogues in poorly controlled T2DM subjects on oral therapy.
RESULTS: We identified 7 RCT with 2199 patients of whom 1119 were assigned to insulin therapy and
1080 received a GLP-1 analogue. Both insulin and GLP-1 analogues were effective in lowering glycated
hemoglobin (HbA(1c)) with no statistically significant difference between the mean decreases in
HbA(1c). However, insulin was more effective than GLP-1 analogues in lowering the fasting plasma
glucose concentration, while GLP-1 agonists were more effective in lowering the postprandial glucose
concentration. Insulin therapy was associated with weight gain while GLP-1 analogues consistently
caused weight loss and the difference between the mean change in body weight between the two
therapies was highly statistically significant. Despite a similar decrease in HbA(1c), the risk of
hypoglycemia was 35% lower (p=0.001) with GLP-1 therapy compared to insulin. Compared to insulin,
GLP-1 analogues caused a significant decrease in systolic blood pressure and were associated with
greater rate of gastrointestinal adverse events.
CONCLUSION/INTERPRETATION: In poorly controlled T2DM subjects on oral therapy, GLP-1 analogues
and insulin are equally effective in lowering the HbA(1c). However, GLP-1 analogues have additional
non-glycemic benefits and lower risk of hypoglycemia. Thus, GLP-1 analogues should be considered
as a treatment option in this group of diabetic individuals.

Dipeptidyl Peptidase IV Inhibitors (DPP-4)

• DPP-4 degrades numerous biologically active peptides,
  including the endogenous incretins GLP-1 and glucose-
  dependent insulinotropic peptide (GIP).

• DPP-4 inhibitors prolong the action of incretin hormones.

Dipeptidyl Peptidase IV Inhibitors (DPP-4)

• They mainly:
   – have once a day dosing,
   – have low risk of hypoglycaemia without the risk of gastrointestinal
     side-effects.
   – do not reduce appetite or cause weight loss such as GLP-1 agonists
   – have lower efficacy (approximate HbA1c lowering by 0.5-0.8%/6-9
     mmol/mol) than other agents and may not be easily available in many
     countries due to high expense;
   – may cause adverse events such as increased blood pressure,
     neurogenic inflammation, and immunological reactions. No severe
     effects have been reported to date, but further long-term trials are
     needed.

GLP-1 receptor agonists or DPP-4 inhibitors:
              how to guide the clinician?
Abstract
Pharmacological treatment of type 2 diabetes has been enriched during recent years, with the
launch of incretin therapies targeting glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1). Such medications comprise
either GLP-1 receptor agonists, with short (one or two daily injections: exenatide, liraglutide,
lixisenatide) or long duration (one injection once weekly: extended-released exenatide, albiglutide,
dulaglutide, taspoglutide); or oral compounds inhibiting dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4), the enzyme
that inactives GLP-1, also called gliptins (sitagliptin, vildagliptin, saxagliptin, linagliptin, alogliptin).
Although both pharmacological approaches target GLP-1, important differences exist concerning the
mode of administration (subcutaneous injection versus oral ingestion), the efficacy (better with GLP-
1 agonists), the effects on body weight and systolic blood pressure (diminution with agonists versus
neutrality with gliptins), the tolerance profile (nausea and possibly vomiting with agonists) and the
cost (higher with GLP-1 receptor agonists).
Both agents may exert favourable cardiovascular effects. Gliptins may represent a valuable
alternative to a sulfonylurea or a glitazone after failure of monotherapy with metformin while GLP-1
receptor agonists may be considered as a good alternative to insulin (especially in obese patients)
after failure of a dual oral therapy. However, this scheme is probably too restrictive and modalities
of using incretins are numerous, in almost all stages of type 2 diabetes. Physicians may guide
the pharmacological choice based on clinical characteristics, therapeutic goals
and patient's preference

…..ritornando al caso clinico

• Verosimilmente non era adeguata la gestione farmacologica del
  diabete al domicilio (assunzione di sulfanilurea a lunga durata
  d’azione, associazione di 3 farmaci di cui nessuno a dosaggio
  massimo)

• Adeguato l’uso di insulina in ospedale in fase acuta di IMA e
  scompenso cardiaco. Non opportuno rilasciare alla dimissione la
  terapia pre-ricovero

• E in riabilitazione?
   – Si poteva optare per la metformina ma considerato il recente IMA e in
     attesa di rivalutazione ecocardiografica è stato preferito l’uso di
     repaglinide, poi mantenuta in terapia considerato il mantenimento di
     buoni valori glicemici
Conclusioni
• Nei diabetici anziani funzionalmente dipendenti (fragili e/o
  con demenza) il target dei valori di A1C è più elevato che in
  quelli funzionalmente indipendenti

• Dei nuovi farmaci antidiabetici alcuni risultano efficaci ma
  molto costosi, altri meno efficaci e supportati da pochi dati
  di letteratura sull’efficacia a lungo termine

• Nel paziente anziano la scelta del trattamento farmacologico
  deve essere fatta tenendo conto, oltre che dei valori di A1C,
  anche delle condizioni funzionali, della comorbilità, dei costi
  e del rapporto rischio/beneficio

• Nell’anziano rimane la metformina il farmaco (seppur
  vecchio) di prima scelta
