Abstract The impressive results of recent clinical trials with glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1Ra) and sodium glucose transporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT-2i) in terms of cardiovascular protection prompted a huge interest in these agents for heart failure (HF) prevention and treatment. While both classes show positive effects on composite cardiovascular endpoints (i.e. 3P MACE), their actions on the cardiac function and structure, as well as on volume regulation, and their impact on HF-related events have not been systematically evaluated and compared. In this narrative review, we summarize and critically interpret the available evidence emerging from clinical studies. While chronic exposure to GLP-1Ra appears to be essentially neutral on both systolic and diastolic function, irrespective of left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), a beneficial impact of SGLT-2i is consistently detectable for both systolic and diastolic function parameters in subjects with diabetes with and without HF, with a gradient proportional to the severity of baseline dysfunction. SGLT-2i have a clinically significant impact in terms of HF hospitalization prevention in subjects at high and very high cardiovascular risk both with and without type 2 diabetes (T2D) or HF, while GLP-1Ra have been proven to be safe (and marginally beneficial) in subjects with T2D without HF. We suggest that the role of the kidney is crucial for the effect of SGLT-2i on the clinical outcomes not only because these drugs slow-down the time-dependent decline of kidney function and enhance the response to diuretics, but also because they attenuate the meal-related anti-natriuretic pressure (lowering postprandial hyperglycemia and hyperinsulinemia and preventing proximal sodium reabsorption), which would reduce the individual sensitivity to day-to-day variations in dietary sodium intake. |
