Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Over the last decade, there has been remarkable progress in our understanding of the molecular and pathophysiological mechanisms linking diabetes to cardiovascular diseases. Furthermore, recent years have seen the discovery of new pharmacological approaches that not only address hyperglycemia but also offer significant cardiovascular benefits.

In particular, the emergence of SGLT2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) and GLP-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1as) has revolutionized the management of diabetic patients with cardiovascular diseases. These therapies have demonstrated improved outcomes in both atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases and heart failure, marking a significant shift in therapeutic strategies and patient care.

For this Special Issue, we welcome contributions from researchers and clinicians to explore the latest findings in this critical area. We encourage the submission of original research, reviews, and clinical studies that delve into the mechanisms by which diabetes exacerbates cardiovascular disease, the impact of emerging therapies, and the potential for these innovations to improve prognosis.

We look forward to your valuable contributions to this Special Issue, which aims to shape the future of diabetes and cardiovascular disease management.

Dr. Simona Giubilato
Guest Editor
