Efficacy and Safety of Dapagliflozin in Patients with Heart Failure with Mildly Reduced or Preserved Ejection Fraction by Baseline Glycaemic Status (DELIVER): a Subgroup Analysis from an International, Multicentre, Double-blind, Randomised, Placebo-controlled Trial
Lancet Diabetes Endocrinol. 2022;10:869–881 DOI: 10.1016/S2213-8587(22)00308-4
Dapagliflozin was shown to be highly efficacious in patients with HFmrEF and HFpEF in the DELIVER trial. However, whether the benefits of dapagliflozin are observed across glycaemia categories has not been previously reported.

Time to Clinical Benefit of Dapagliflozin in Patients With Heart Failure With Mildly Reduced or Preserved Ejection Fraction: A Prespecified Secondary Analysis of the DELIVER Randomized Clinical Trial
JAMA Cardiol. 2022; online ahead of print DOI: 10.1001/jamacardio.2022.3750
Dapagliflozin was recently shown to reduce CV death or worsening HF events in patients with HF with mildly reduced or preserved ejection fraction in the DELIVER trial. This prespecified secondary analysis of DELIVER examined the timeline to onset of clinical benefit with dapagliflozin.
Empagliflozin and Left Ventricular Remodeling in People Without Diabetes: Primary Results of the EMPA-HEART 2 CardioLink-7 Randomized Clinical Trial
Circulation. 2022; online ahead of print DOI: 10.1161/CIRCULATIONAHA.122.062769
Among patients with neither diabetes nor significant HF but with risk factors for adverse cardiac remodelling, empagliflozin did not result in a meaningful reduction in change in left ventricular mass indexed (LVMi) to baseline body surface area (BSA) after 6 months as measured by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging.
SGLT2i have demonstrated reverse cardiac remodelling in patients with diabetes or HF, but their effects earlier in the natural history of HF are less well studied.

The SGLT2 Inhibitor Empagliflozin in Patients Hospitalized For Acute Heart Failure: A Multinational Randomized Trial
Nature Med 2022;28:568–74 doi: 10.1038/s41591-021-01659-1
Empagliflozin is well tolerated in patients hospitalised for acute heart failure, resulting in significant clinical benefit 90 days after treatment initiation.
Dapagliflozin and New-Onset Type 2 Diabetes in Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease Or Heart Failure: Pooled Analysis of the DAPA-CKD and DAPA-HF Trials
Lancet Diabetes Endocrinol 2022;10:24–34 doi.org/10.1016/
Chronic kidney disease and heart failure are insulin resistant states associated with high incidence rates of diabetes. Rossing et al. carried out a two Phase 3, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled trials assessed the effect of dapagliflozin on new-onset type 2 diabetes, in a pooled analysis of data from 6,608 individuals.
