GLP-1 helps regulate blood glucose in humans

Stomach:Helps regulate
gastric emptying
Promotes satiety and
reduces appetite
Liver:
Glucagon reduces
hepatic glucose outputBeta cells:Enhances glucose-dependent
insulin secretion
Alpha cells: Postprandial
glucagon secretion
GLP-1 secreted upon
the ingestion of food
Pharmacologic Therapy for Type 2 DM
GLP-1 is rapidly degraded by DPP- 4

ADA/AHA/ACC: Recommendations for Use
of Aspirin for Primary Prevention of CV
Events in People With Diabetes
Pignone M, et al. Diabetes Care. 2010;33(6):1395-1402.
Low-dose (75–162 mg/d) aspirin use for
prevention is reasonable for adults with diabetes
and no previous history of vascular disease who
are at increased CVD risk and who are not at
increased risk for bleeding
• 10-yr risk of CVD events >10%
• Most men >50, women
>60 yrs with smoking, HTN,
dyslip, premature CVD fam hx,
albuminuria
Aspirin should not be recommended for CVD
prevention for adults with diabetes at low CVD
risk—potential adverse effects from bleeding
outweigh potential benefits
•10-yr CVD risk <5%
• Men <50, women
<60 yrs with no major add’l
CVD risk factors
Low-dose (75–162 mg/d) aspirin use for
prevention might be considered for those with
diabetes at intermediate CVD risk until further
research is available
• Younger patients with ≥1 risk
factor
• Older pts with no risk factors
• Pts w/ 10-yr CVD risk 5–10%
Recommendation Definition of risk
Endothelium is an Endocrine Organ
Diabetes causes endothelial dysfunction, which causes
cardiovascular disease
