Abstract: Background Empagliflozin, a sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 (SGLT-2) inhibitor, yielded significant beneficiaries in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). It is particularly benefited the diabetic subjects with heart conditions. Aims We aimed to obtain a real-world data about the effects of empagliflozin add-on treatment on metabolic parameters, cardiovascular risk factors, and anthropometric measures in patients with T2DM. Methods Type 2 diabetic patients with established coronary heart disease wh… Show more

“…Sodium-dependent glucose transporters 2 inhibitors improves HbA1c, BP, LDL control, and body weight loss. [ 9 ] Weight loss, especially fat tissue loss is associated with the decreasing of cytokine like Neuregulin-4 in diabetics with lower HbA1c levels. [ 10 , 11 ] But we did not measure inflammatory markers in this study.…”

“…In addition, the weight loss caused by SGLT-2 inhibitors may be due in part to body water loss, based on a unique glucose-lowering mechanism [38]. However, it should be noted that studies of ketosis and euglycemic ketoacidosis based on dehydration and insulinopenia during SGLT-2 inhibitors use have been reported [34,39,40]. Due to limited data, we did not conduct further analysis of water loss and risk of ketosis caused by SGLT-2 inhibitors.…”
