TL;DR

Among adults aged ≥75 years with type 2 diabetes, SGLT2i initiation was associated with lower all-cause mortality and renal risk compared with DPP-4i initiation, and the higher observed stroke risk requires cautious interpretation.

SGLT-2 inhibitors and risk of 59 long-term health conditions, hospitalisation, and mortality.

BACKGROUND Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is often the first condition on the pathway to patients developing multiple long-term conditions (MLTC). The impact of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT-2i), a key T2DM treatment, on hospitalisation and MLTC progression remains uncertain. METHODS In this compar...

Efficacy and Safety of Sodium-Glucose Cotransporter 2 Inhibitors in the Very Elderly with Chronic Kidney Disease: a Retrospective Cohort Study Using Real-World Data

ABSTRACT Importance: The prevalence of chronic kidney disease (CKD) is increasing, with aging being a major contributor. Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) are well established therapies for CKD; however, adults aged 80 years or older have been underrepresented in previous large-scale trials. Consequent...

SGLT2 inhibitors and outcomes in the chronic Post-LVAD phase: a multicenter real-world cohort study

Background The effect of sodium–glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) in patients with left ventricular assist devices (LVAD) remains uncertain. We evaluated the association between SGLT2i use and adverse outcomes during the chronic post-LVAD phase. Methods We conducted a retrospective cohort study using the TriN...

Recorded Adoption of SGLT2 Inhibitors from 2022 to 2025 Among Adults with an EHR-Defined HFrEF Phenotype at a Jordanian Public Hospital

Background/Objectives: Sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) are foundational therapy for heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), irrespective of diabetes. We evaluated recorded SGLT2i adoption and diabetes-related differences among adults with an electronic health record (EHR)-defined HFrEF...
