It has become clear that these disease states are not independent but are frequently interrelated. By addressing conditions such as obesity,­ ­insulin resistance, stress hyperglycemia, impaired glucose tolerance, and diabetes ­mellitus, with its micro- and macrovascular complications, a specific treatment strategy can be ­developed. These conditions can be addressed by early identification of patients at high risk for type 2 diabetes, prompt and aggressive treatment of their hyperglycemia, recognition of the pleiotropic and synergistic benefits of certain antidiabetes agents on CVD, and thus, avoiding potential complications including hypoglycemia and weight gain. Incretin-based therapies, which include glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists and dipeptidyl peptidase-IV (DPP-IV) inhibitors, have the potential to alter the course of type 2 diabetes and associated CVD complications. Advantages of these therapies include glucose-dependent enhancement of insulin secretion, infrequent instances of hypoglycemia, weight loss with GLP-1 receptor agonists, weight maintenance with DPP-IV inhibitors, decreased blood pressure, improvements in dyslipidemia, and potential beneficial effects on CV function.Keywords: cardiovascular disease, glucose control, GLP-1 receptor agonists, DPP-IV inhibitorsSchwartz SDove Medical PressarticleType 2 Diabetesdiabetes treatmentincretin-based therapiesglucose controlGLP-1Cardiovascular diseaseSpecialties of internal medicineRC581-951ENDiabetes, Metabolic Syndrome and Obesity: Targets and Therapy, Vol Volume 3, Pp 227-242 (2010)
