Real-Life Individual Comparison of Sodium-Glucose Cotransporter-2 Inhibitors in Patients with Heart Failure and Diabetes Mellitus.
Article in American journal of cardiovascular drugs : drugs, devices, and other interventions, 2025. 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
backgroundSodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) are breakthrough agents for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and heart failure (HF). However, among patients with HF and T2DM, some uncertainty remains about individual comparisons, including dosing.
objectivesWe aimed to make a real-life individual comparison of SGLT2is among patients with HF and T2DM.
methodsThis was a subgroup analysis of the Turkish Ministry of Health's National Electronic Database for adult patients with HF (TRends-HF). All-cause mortality (ACM) data up to 7 years were evaluated. Patients with HF and T2DM who were prescribed an SGLT2i were identified, and individual doses of empagliflozin 25 mg, empagliflozin 10 mg, and dapagliflozin 10 mg were compared. For individual comparisons, propensity score-matching analysis was generated as 1:1:1, and disease-modifying therapies (DMTs) for HF were considered.
resultsIn the triple-matched cohort, 1-, 5-, and 7-year survival rates were 95%, 81%, and 76% versus 94%, 78%, and 72% versus 94%, 80%, and 75% for empagliflozin 25 mg, empagliflozin 10 mg, and dapagliflozin 10 mg, respectively. Among patients who were on triple DMT for HF, 1-, 5-, and 7-year survival rates were 95%, 78%, and 70% for empagliflozin 25 mg, 95%, 74%, and 66% for empagliflozin 10 mg, and 94%, 77%, and 69% for dapagliflozin, respectively. Annual emergency department visits were slightly lower with empagliflozin 10 mg and dapagliflozin 10 mg than with empagliflozin 25 mg. A greater proportion of patients on dapagliflozin 10 mg did not experience hospitalization during the 7-year follow-up compared with both doses of empagliflozin, albeit with a small effect size.
conclusionAmong patients with HF and T2DM, SGLT2is are instrumental, and empagliflozin 10 mg remains significantly inferior to dapagliflozin 10 mg and empagliflozin 25 mg in terms of 5- and 7-year ACM.
