Assessing the Metabolic and Physical Effects of Combined DPP4 and SGLT2 Inhibitor Therapy in Patients with Type-2 Diabetes Mellitus: An Observational Prospective Pilot Study.
Article in JMA journal, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.

Abstract
Introduction: This study aimed to assess the efficacy of combined administration of dipeptidyl peptide-4 (DPP4) and sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors on metabolic disorders and their preferable and complementary effects. Methods: The effectiveness of a 24-week intervention on metabolic parameters (including glucose profile), physical functions (grip strength and calf circumference), and health-related quality of life (HR-QOL) was analyzed using the International Physical Activity Questionnaire and Geriatric Depression Scale 5. A total of 39 patients with type-2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) treated with the combination of DPP4 and SGLT2 inhibitors were included in this multicenter pilot study. Results: Combination therapy significantly reduced the HbA1c level (median [interquartile range]) after 24 weeks (pretreatment: 7.7% [7.3-8.2] vs. posttreatment: 7.1% [6.6-7.9], Conclusions: Combination therapy with DPP4 and SGLT2 inhibitors decreased HbA1c levels and improved physical function in patients with T2DM. This study confirmed the effectiveness of combination therapy for metabolic disorders and suggested its beneficial and complementary effects. Therefore, advances in treatment plans to achieve further improvements in glucose profiles using DPP4 and SGLT2 inhibitors are recommended to enhance the QOL of patients with T2DM.
