Assessment of cardiovascular event reduction with SGLT2 inhibitors compared to GLP-1 receptor agonists in type 2 diabetes mellitus.

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
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) remains the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Antidiabetic agents, sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) and glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RA) have demonstrated cardiovascular benefits, though direct comparative data are limited. This retrospective cohort study analysed records of 300 T2DM patients treated between January 2021 and December 2023 at a tertiary care centre. Patients were divided into two groups: Group A (n=150) received SGLT2i (empagliflozin or dapagliflozin), and Group B (n=150) received GLP-1 RA (liraglutide or semaglutide). Major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), including myocardial infarction, stroke, and cardiovascular death, were tracked over 24 months. Group A showed a lower incidence of MACE (11.3%) compared to Group B (15.3%), though the difference was not statistically significant (p=0.182). Kaplan-Meier curves indicated slightly better event-free survival in the SGLT2i group. Haemoglobin A1c reduction was similar between the groups (1.2% vs. 1.3%, p=0.456), while hospitalization for heart failure was significantly lower in the SGLT2i group (6.0% vs. 10.6%, p=0.048). Thus, we show that both SGLT2 inhibitors and GLP-1 receptor agonists offer cardiovascular protection in T2DM, with SGLT2i providing a modest advantage in reducing MACE and a significant benefit in lowering heart failure hospitalizations.
