Healthcare Costs and Resource Utilization Associated with the Use of Empagliflozin Versus Other Antihyperglycemic Agents Among Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and Cardiovascular Disease: A Real-World Retrospective Cohort Analysis.
Article in Diabetes therapy : research, treatment and education of diabetes and related disorders, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.
Who cites it
6 citing papers in PubMed, 1 synthesis or guideline pooled it, 8 citations in OpenAlex.

Abstract
introductionEmpagliflozin has demonstrated lower rates of cardiovascular outcomes vs. standard of care among patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and cardiovascular disease (CVD). However, the impact of empagliflozin compared to other branded antihyperglycemic agents (AHAs) on total cost of care has yet to be quantified. METHODS AND
resultsThis retrospective cohort study evaluated the impact of empagliflozin (n = 441) on costs and healthcare resource utilization (HCRU) vs. other branded AHAs (n = 13,122) among patients with T2DM and CVD, using the IQVIA PharMetrics
conclusionsThis study demonstrated that the all-cause healthcare costs and HCRU were significantly lower for patients with T2DM and CVD who initiated empagliflozin vs. other branded AHAs. Along with the positive clinical evidence base of empagliflozin, these results can guide healthcare decision makers during therapy selection.
