Fewer ECG Abnormalities in Early T2D With Combo Therapy
TOPLINE: In patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) of less than 10 years' duration who were taking metformin monotherapy, ECG abnormalities — including evidence of cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy — were common and associated with cardiovascular risk factors. After adding one of four frequently used glucose-lowering agents to metformin, fewer major ECG changes occurred with liraglutide than with the other treatments. METHODOLOGY: Researchers aimed to examine ECG abnormalities and cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy across the different glucose-lowering treatment groups in 5029 participants (mean age, 57.2 years; diabetes duration, 4.2 years; A1c level, 7.5%; 36.4% women) from the GRADE trial. The participants had T2D for less than 10 years and were initially taking metformin monotherapy before being randomly assigned to receive metformin plus one of four commonly used glucose-lowering agents (insulin glargine, glimepiride, liraglutide, or sitagliptin). Patients were followed up for an average of 5 years. Resting ECGs were recorded at baseline and at 2‐ and 4‐year follow-ups and analyzed for overall, major, and minor abnormalities, as well as heart rate variability — a measure of cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy. TAKEAWAY: More than half of participants in the GRADE trial had ECG abnormalities (57.1%) and ECG-defined cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy (52.8%) at baseline. The presence of these abnormalities was associated with longer diabetes duration, higher systolic blood pressure, greater prevalence of hyperlipidemia, more frequent use of lipid-lowering treatment, and beta-blocker use. Major ECG abnormalities occurred less frequently in the liraglutide group than in the other treatment groups (9% vs 13% at 4 years). Researchers found no significant differences in ECG-defined cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy between the liraglutide and non-liraglutide groups at 2 and 4 years (P = .42). IN PRACTICE: "ECG abnormalities, including those of CAN [cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy], are common in T2D < 10 years and are associated with certain CV [cardiovascular] risk factors. The development of major ECG abnormalities may differ by glucose-lowering treatment, as fewer occurred with liraglutide vs the other treatments," the authors concluded. SOURCE: The study was led by Rodica Pop-Busui, MD, PhD, Oregon Health & Science University in Portland. The results were presented on June 20 at the American Diabetes Association (ADA) 85th Scientific Sessions, being held June 20-23 at the McCormick Place Convention Center in Chicago, Illinois.

Houston Rockets have second-best NBA title odds at sportsbooks after Kevin Durant trade
Before Game 7 of this year's NBA Finals tipped off, the NBA world was stunned by a Kevin Durant blockbuster deal, sending him to the Houston Rockets for Jalen Green, Dillon Brooks, the No. 10 pick in next week's 2025 NBA draft and five second-round picks. It also sent a shockwave through the odds board at sportsbooks, as the Rockets moved from the 12-1 range to around +750 to win the 2025-26 NBA championship. Those are the consensus second-best odds behind the Oklahoma City Thunder, who are well ahead of any other team at +230. Advertisement "Good trade for Phoenix, adding Jalen Green and the 10th pick is the right direction," Jeff Sherman, vice president of risk at the Westgate Las Vegas SuperBook told Yahoo Sports via text message. "We lowered Houston from 12-1 to +900 just based on perception. They should be in the mix no doubt, I just like the return for Phoenix better than what the Rockets got in a 37-year-old they have to extend." The New York Knicks (+900), Indiana Pacers (+950) and Cleveland Cavaliers (11-1) had the next-best consensus title odds at sportsbooks. "Having someone who can score in the half court was exactly what Houston was lacking all season, and it cost them dearly in the playoffs," Thomas Gable, sportsbook director at The Borgata in Atlantic City (a BetMGM book) told Yahoo Sports via text. "While this will be Durant's 18th season, he can still generate offense in the half court, even if he doesn't get to the basket as much as he used to. He should help a very young Rockets team, even if it's only a short stint." Advertisement Sherman and other oddsmakers did have Houston as the second-best team in the West in their power ratings, but cautioned the ranking was simply as of today's trade, noting, for example, if San Antonio traded for Giannis Antetokounmpo that could vault them to No. 2. "We slightly lowered the Rockets' title odds," Jeff Benson, director of sportsbook operations at Circa Sports said via direct message on X. "They upgraded and didn't give up a ton, especially the good young guys." The +750 odds are the best for the Rockets since the 2019 season, per Sports Odds History, when Houston was +700.
