Effects of 6 weeks of treatment with dapagliflozin, a sodium‐glucose co‐transporter‐2 inhibitor, on myocardial function and metabolism in patients with type 2 diabetes: A randomized, placebo‐controlled, exploratory study

Abstract

This exploratory study indicates reduced heart work but limited effects on myocardial function, efficiency and cardiac fatty acid uptake, while hepatic fatty acid uptake increased, after 6 weeks of treatment with dapagliflozin.
