Effect of Dapagliflozin on Cause-Specific Mortality in Patients With Heart Failure Across the Spectrum of Ejection Fraction: A Participant-Level Pooled Analysis of DAPA-HF and DELIVER
JAMA Cardiol. 2022; online ahead of print DOI: 10.1001/jamacardio.2022.3736
In a prospective, patient-level pooled meta-analysis of the DAPA-HF and DELIVER trials, dapagliflozin-associated reductions in CV mortality in patients with HF appeared to be principally due to lower rates of sudden death and HF death, regardless of EF.
Empagliflozin for Heart Failure With Preserved Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction With and Without Diabetes
Circulation 2022; online ahead of print
In patients enrolled in EMPEROR-Preserved, empagliflozin significantly reduced the risk of heart failure (HF) outcomes irrespective of diabetes status.

Cardiovascular Outcomes with Finerenone According to Glycemic Status at Baseline and Prior Treatment with Newer Antidiabetics among Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus
Endocrinol Metab 2022;37:170–4; doi.org/10.3803/EnM.2021.1296
Finerenone induced a 13% risk reduction in MACE (a composite of death from CV causes, nonfatal myocardial infarction, nonfatal stroke, or hospitalisation for heart failure) regardless of prior glycaemia. There was no difference in finerenone-derived MACE benefits whether patients were on baseline SGLT2i or GLP-1RA or not.
Effects of Empagliflozin on Markers of Liver Steatosis and Fibrosis and Their Relationship to Cardiorenal Outcomes
Diabetes Obes Metab 2022; doi:10.1111/dom.14670
In this study of adults with T2D and established CV disease, the proportion of patients at high steatosis risk decreased slightly in patients treated with empagliflozin compared with patients treated with placebo. Fibrosis risk was not reduced.
