GLP-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1-RA) have been shown to lower the risk of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) and hospitalizations for heart failure, reduce albuminuria, and slow the decline in eGFR\u2014and increasingly, these benefits extend beyond diabetes. With oral semaglutide, an oral agent with proven cardiovascular benefits is entering the scene for the first time, accompanied by the first large-scale data set on heart failure in type 2 diabetes. And the next generation\u2014triple agonists such as retatrutide\u2014is already on the horizon.     <\/strong><\/p>\n\n<div class=\"pmpro\"><div class=\"pmpro_card pmpro_content_message\"><div class=\"pmpro_card_content\">Dieser Inhalt ist nur f\u00fcr Benutzer der Gruppe: Medizinische Fachperson zug\u00e4nglich <br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/medizinonline.com\/en\/my-account\/packages\/\">Jetzt beitreten<\/a><\/div><div class=\"pmpro_card_actions pmpro_font-medium\">Already a member? <a href=\"https:\/\/medizinonline.com\/en\/log-in\/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fmedizinonline.com%2Fen%2Fthe-incretin-revolution-in-cardiology%2F\">Log in here<\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Within a decade, incretin mimetics have evolved from blood-sugar-lowering diabetes medications into one of the most dynamic classes of drugs in cardiovascular medicine.
