ABSTRACT Aims Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is linked to elevated risks of cerebrovascular diseases. Whether sodium‐glucose cotransporter‐2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) reduce stroke risk in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and DR remains uncertain. Materials and Methods We conducted a retrospective cohort study using the TriNetX Research Network.
