Lower risk of hospitalization for heart failure, kidney disease and death with sodium‐glucose co‐transporter‐2 inhibitors compared with dipeptidyl peptidase‐4 inhibitors in type 2 diabetes regardless of prior cardiovascular or kidney disease: A retrospective cohort study in UK primary care

Abstract

There was consistency across subgroups and sensitivity analyses. SGLT2is were associated with a reduced risk of all-cause mortality and hospitalization for HF and CKD compared with DPP4-is, highlighting the need to introduce SGLT2is early in the management of patients with T2D.
