The Efficacy of Sodium-Glucose Cotransporter-2 Inhibitors in Improving Morbidity and Mortality of Heart Failure: A Systematic Review

The Efficacy of Sodium-Glucose Cotransporter-2 Inhibitors in Improving Morbidity and Mortality of Heart Failure: A Systematic Review

Source : https://www.cureus.com/articles/120380-the-efficacy-of-sodium-glucose-cotransporter-2-inhibitors-in-improving-morbidity-and-mortality-of-heart-failure-a-systematic-review

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of mortality in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) worldwide. Sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) were initially developed for treating patients with type...

Conclusions/Relevance: The participants included in this study had various basal metabolic indices, ages, glomerular filtration rates, and diabetic status characteristics. Although these patients were quite different, after the administration of SGLT2i, the studies showed a beneficial effect in reducing CVD mortality and morbidity in patients...

Impact of left bundle branch block on heart failure with preserved ejection fraction - PubMed

Source : https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36932820/

In patients admitted with decompensated heart failure with preserved ejection fraction, left bundle branch block is associated with increased odds of cardiac arrest, mechanical circulatory support requirement, device implantation and...

Conclusion: In patients admitted with decompensated heart failure with preserved ejection fraction, left bundle branch block is associated with increased odds of cardiac arrest, mechanical circulatory support requirement, device implantation and mean cost of hospitalization but decreased odds of in-hospital mortality.

Neutral effects of SGLT2 inhibitors in acute coronary syndromes, peripheral arterial occlusive disease, or ischemic stroke: a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials - Cardiovascular Diabetology

Background Patients with type 2 diabetes are at increased risk for cardiovascular diseases. Sodium-glucose transport 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) have been shown to enhance cardiovascular health since their debut as a...

Conclusion: Our results appear to contradict the mainstream concepts regarding the cardiovascular effects of SGLT2i since we found no significant therapeutic benefits in SGLT2i to reduce the incidence of ACS, PAOD, or IS when compared to placebo or oral hypoglycemic drugs.

Conclusion: There was no increased risk of myotoxicity reporting associated with concomitant use of SGLT2i and statins or for specific drug pairs.
