SGLT2 Inhibitors Versus GLP-1RAs on Kidney and Heart Failure
The bars represent absolute effects of treatment per 1,000 patients treated for 5 years for patients at very low risk (no cardiovascular risk factors), low risk (3 or more cardiovascular risk factors), moderate risk (atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease), high risk (chronic kidney disease), and very high risk (atherosclerotic vascular disease plus chronic kidney disease). (A) Kidney failure: SGLT2 inhibitor and GLP-1RA compared with placebo. (B) Kidney failure: SGLT2 inhibitor compared with GLP-1RA. (C) Hospitalization for heart failure: SGLT2 inhibitor and GLP-1RA compared with placebo. (D) Hospitalization for heart failure: SGLT2 inhibitor compared with GLP-1RA.
