ABSTRACT: Abstract
Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) improve cardiovascular outcomes in patients with heart failure (HF). However, studies examining their benefits exclusively in nondiabetic patients on various HF outcomes are limited. By conducting a MEDLINE and ClinicalTrials.gov search for randomized controlled trials, we identified 4 studies on SGLT2i with data on HF outcomes in nondiabetic patients and performed a meta-analysis. There were 10.638 nondiabetic patients, with 5316 patients in the SGLT2i group and 5322 in the placebo group included in this meta-analysis. The composite of worsening HF (hospitalization for HF or urgent visit for HF) or cardiovascular death had 726 events (13.66%) in the SGLT2i group and 907 (17.04%) in the placebo group, with a hazard ratio (
