866 Infarct Size, Inflammatory Burden and Admission Hyperglycemia in Diabetic Patients With Acute Myocardial Infarction Treated With Sglt2-Inhibitors: A Multicenter International Registry
Abstract:Background
Sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2-I) currently receive intense clinical interest in patients with and without diabetes mellitus (DM) with pleiotropic beneficial effects. Nowadays, the inflammation response in the setting of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) has been proposed as a potential pharmacological intervention target. In this setting, we tested the hypothesis that the SGLT2-I displays anti-inflammatory effect along with glucose-lowering properties. We invest… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
