Effect of sodium glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT-2is) on the clinical outcomes of patients with diabetic atrial fibrillation.
Observational study in BMC cardiovascular disorders, 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
backgroundDiabetes mellitus (DM) and atrial Fibrillation (AF) are among the most common health issues. They are responsible for the highest rates of morbidity and mortality. The importance of sodium glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT-2is) in treating DM has increased significantly in recent years. In our article, we aimed to evaluate the effect of SGLT-2i on the clinical outcomes of AF patients with DM.
methodsOur study is a retrospective, observational study. The patients with AF and DM were divided into two groups: those using SGLT-2i or not using SGLT-2i, and 3-year follow-up results were examined. The endpoints of the study were defined as all-cause death, the development of myocardial infarction (MI), major bleeding requiring hospitalization, and an ischemic cerebrovascular event (CVE). Differences between groups according to SGLT-2i use were analyzed.
resultsThe study included 485 patients, 205 (42.3%) of whom were male and had an average age of 70.7 ± 9.7 years. A total of 138 of 485 patients (28.5%) received SGLT-2i. All-cause mortality was lower in the group receiving SGLT-2i (p < 0.001). Similarly, a significant reduction in major bleeding events was observed among those who received SGLT-2i treatment (p = 0.009). The incidence of CVEs was lower among SGLT-2i recipients, but the difference was not statistically significant (p = 0.066). SGLT2i usage did not mitigate the risk of MI development (p = 0.317).
conclusionsIn our study, SGLT-2i treatment was associated with a significant reduction in all-cause mortality and major bleeding in diabetic AF patients. Our study provides evidence of the clinical benefit of SGLT-2i in AF patients.
