Abstract

and systolic blood pressure significantly decreased in both treatment groups after 36 months.

  • Both GLP-1 receptor agonist and SGLT-2 inhibitors were associated with significant reductions in HbA1c levels.
  • Systolic blood pressure decreased significantly in both groups over the 36-month period.
  • Estimated glomerular filtration rate showed a decrease, but this change was not statistically significant.
  • decreased significantly in both groups, with a subsequent increase observed after 30 months in the SGLT-2 inhibitor group.
  • Improvements in diastolic cardiac function, measured by specific cardiac indices, were noted only in the GLP-1 receptor agonist group at 36 months.
