Eyesight failure caused by diabetic retinopathy and aging-related dementia make multiple daily insulin injections difficult for HD patients. Therefore, we reviewed the effects of DPP-4 inhibitors with a focus on oral antidiabetic drugs as a new treatment strategy in HD patients with diabetes. The following 7 DPP-4 inhibitors are available worldwide: sitagliptin, vildagliptin, alogliptin, linagliptin, teneligliptin, anagliptin, and saxagliptin. All of these are administered once daily with dose adjustments in HD patients. Four types of oral antidiabetic drugs can be administered for combination oral therapy with DPP-4 inhibitors, including sulfonylureas, meglitinide, thiazolidinediones, and alpha-glucosidase inhibitor. Nine studies examined the antidiabetic effects in HD patients. Treatments decreased hemoglobin A1 c and glycated albumin levels by 0.3% to 1.3% and 1.7% to 4.9%, respectively. The efficacy of DPP-4 inhibitor treatment is high among HD patients, and no patients exhibited significant severe adverse effects such as hypoglycemia and liver dysfunction. DPP-4 inhibitors are key drugs in new treatment strategies for HD patients with diabetes and with limited choices for diabetes treatment.展开更多

文摘目的 探讨中国河南豫北地区汉族原发性高血压人群血管紧张素转换酶(ACE)基因插入(I)/缺失(D)多态性与心房颤动(房颤) 的关系.方法 采用病例对照法,选择原发性高血压患者803例,分为房颤组405例和窦性心律组398例,采用PCR-RFLP方法进行ACE基因I/D多态性分析.结果 房颤组DD基因型频率明显高于窦性心律组(25.9% vs 13.1%),ID基因型频率明显低于窦性心律组(38.8% vs 50.3%,P〈0.05).与携带II+ID基因型者比较,携带DD基因型高血压患者房颤的风险增加(OR=2.13,95%CI:1.60-3.29,P〈0.05),携带DD基因型的高血压合并房颤患者左心房内径明显扩大,LVEF明显降低(P〈0.05).结论 ACE基因I/D多态性与原发性高血压患者房颤的发生存在相关性,DD基因型可能使高血压患者发生房颤的危险增加.
