Effect of sex on sodium‐glucose co‐transporter‐2 antagonists and glucagon‐like peptide‐1 agonists in heart failure

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, Volume 11, Issue 6, Page 3539-3550, December 2024.
Abstract Background Recent evidence suggests that medications not primarily targeting the cardiovascular (CV) system may have cardioprotective effects in patients with heart failure (HF), in particular the anti‐diabetic therapies sodium‐glucose co‐transporter‐2 (SGLT‐2) antagonists and glucagon‐like peptide‐1 (GLP‐1) agonists. We conducted a systematic
