ABSTRACT Introduction Glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor agonists (GLP‐1 RA) improve outcomes in heart failure (HF) with preserved ejection fraction. Whether GLP‐1 RA prevent new‐onset HF in Type 2 diabetes or obesity requires further investigation. Methods We performed an updated meta‐analysis of randomized placebo‐controlled trials (RCT) of treatment ...
