Evidence on SGLT2 Inhibitors' Efficacy in Older and Frail Patients.
Review in Journal of clinical medicine, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors have proven their favorable cardiovascular and nephroprotective benefits in large randomized-controlled trials (RCTs). Given that older adults constitute a substantial part of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), heart failure (HF), and chronic kidney disease (CKD), they are the primary target population for SGLT2 inhibitor therapy. However, their representation in clinical trials remains low and it does not reflect the real-life heterogeneity of this group of patients. As chronological age alone does not adequately reflect the biological age, it is important to evaluate older adults using a multidimensional approach, particularly with regard to frailty. This review aims to summarize and critically appraise the available evidence regarding the efficacy of SGLT2 inhibitors in older and frail adults, with a focus on age-specific outcomes, such as cognitive outcomes, risk of sarcopenia, functional activity and current gaps in evidence related to frailty.
