Efficacy of Sodium-Glucose Cotransporter-2 Inhibitors in Patients With Acute Myocardial Infarction: A Meta-Analysis of Randomised Controlled Trials.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors improve cardiovascular (CV) outcomes in patients with or without Type 2 diabetes and heart failure (HF). However, studies have shown conflicting evidence regarding their efficacy in patients following acute myocardial infarction (MI). We conducted a pilot systematic review and meta-analysis to synthesise the available evidence regarding the effectiveness of SGLT2 inhibitors in MI.

Methods

A systematic literature search was conducted using PubMed/MEDLINE, the Cochrane Library and Embase databases to identify randomised controlled trials (RCTs) that compared clinical outcomes of SGLT2 inhibitors with placebo following MI. We conducted the statistical analysis using RevMan, version 5.4 and pooled risk ratios (RRs) alo
