Risk of bone fracture by using dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors, glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists, or sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus: a network meta-analysis of population-based cohort studies.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is linked to a heightened likelihood of experiencing fractures. It is crucial to ascertain whether medications used to lower blood sugar levels can elevate the risk of fractures. We aimed to investigate and compare the effects of glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RA), Dipeptidyl Peptidase-4 Inhibitors (DPP-4i), and Sodium-Glucose Cotransporter-2 Inhibitors (SGLT-2i) on the fracture risk in patients with T2D in the real world.

Methods

A network meta-analysis conducted an inclusive literature search in PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library to select appropriate population-based cohort studies that investigated the risk of bone fractures of (GLP-1RA), (DPP-4i) or (SGLT-2i) in the real world. A network meta-
