| Abstract | AIM: Type 2 diabetes is not only an independent risk factor for cardiovascular (CV) disease but is also associated with a greater incidence of heart failure (HF). The aim of this review is to examine the effects of oral antidiabetic drugs on CV disease and HF. DATA SYNTHESIS: Trials of anti-diabetic agents are now designed to assess CV safety, but frequently HF is not included as a primary endpoint. However, HF in patients with diabetes is more frequent than other CV events and seems to be underestimated. A burning question is therefore if the most used trial design to monitor CV safety, i.e. non-inferiority, allows clinical translation of trial findings. Available data further suggest that the CV effects of anti-diabetic drugs may be rather class-specific and are only partly due to their glucose-lowering actions. Metformin, recommended as first line in most guidelines, shows positive CV effects while other classes like thiazolidinediones may precipitate HF. Experimental results on the relatively novel dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP IV) inhibitors imply CV protective effects, but the non-inferiority trials published to date show an overall neutral CV outcome and a potential increase in HF by saxagliptin. However, results on sitagliptin of the recently released TECOS indicate that HF is not a class-dependent effect of DPP IV inhibitors. CONCLUSION: Further basic research and long-term outcome studies to clarify the effects of antidiabetic agents on CV and HF are required so that we can select the optimal antidiabetic therapy for our patients. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
