Coronary disease & ACS

Cardiovascular, renal, and lower limb outcomes in patients with type 2 diabetes after percutaneous coronary intervention and treated with sodium–glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors vs. dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors

Eur Heart J Cardiovasc PharmacotherPublished Retrospective cohort study

Authors' conclusion

Our data indicated that SGLT2i, compared with DPP4i, were associated with lower risks of HFH, coronary revascularization, composite renal outcomes, and all-cause mortality for patients with T2D after PCI.
