Racial Differences in Quality of Life in Patients With Heart Failure Treated With Sodium-Glucose Cotransporter 2 Inhibitors: A Patient-Level Meta-Analysis of the CHIEF-HF, DEFINE-HF, and PRESERVED-HF Trials
Circulation. 2023; DOI: 10.1161/CIRCULATIONAHA.122.063263
Health status outcomes, including symptoms, function and QoL are worse for Black compared with White patients with HF. However, it is not known whether the health status benefits of SGLT2i are similar across races. This patient-level meta-analysis used data from three US-based trials that enrolled a substantial proportion of Black patients (DEFINE-HF, PRESERVED-HF and CHIEF-HF) to assess the effects of SGLT2is versus placebo on health status for Black compared with White patients with HF.
