Abstract

Heart failure and renal disease remain significant complications in people with type 2 diabetes (T2D). Recent outcome studies with sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors have provided increasing insights, with the latest reporting trial DECLARE-TIMI 58 (Wiviott et al., 2018), pointing toward a role for these agents in the primary prevention of cardio-renal complications in T2D.
