Track: Cardiometabolic Disease, Lipidology, and Atherosclerosis
The global epidemics of obesity, type 2 diabetes, and metabolic syndrome are driving a parallel surge in cardiovascular disease burden. The Cardiometabolic Syndrome, Obesity & Diabetes in Cardiology session examines the transformative cardiovascular outcomes data for GLP-1 receptor agonists including the LEADER, SUSTAIN-6, and SELECT trials establishing mortality benefits in diabetic and non-diabetic cardiovascular risk cohorts - SGLT2 inhibitor cardiorenal benefits in diabetic and non-diabetic heart failure, emerging dual GIP/GLP-1 agonists (tirzepatide) in cardiovascular outcomes, visceral adiposity as an imaging-based cardiovascular risk marker, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (MASLD) as an emerging cardiovascular risk factor, and the cardiometabolic consequences of weight cycling.
Key Discussion Areas:
- GLP-1 receptor agonists: cardiovascular outcomes across SELECT, LEADER, and SUSTAIN-6
- SGLT2 inhibitors in diabetic and non-diabetic HFrEF and HFpEF
- Tirzepatide and dual GIP/GLP-1 agonists: emerging cardiovascular outcomes data
- Visceral adiposity and pericardial fat as imaging-based cardiovascular risk markers
- MASLD/MASH and cardiovascular risk: emerging evidence and management
- Insulin resistance and cardiovascular disease: pathophysiological mechanisms
- Bariatric and metabolic surgery: cardiovascular outcomes and risk reduction
- Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and early cardiovascular risk in women
Why Attend This Session?
Cardiologists, endocrinologists, diabetologists, preventive medicine specialists, and primary care physicians will benefit from an integrated update on the cardiovascular benefits of cardiometabolic therapies, risk stratification tools, and multidisciplinary management strategies for the growing intersection of metabolic and cardiovascular disease.
