Abstract

The article presents a review of the results of real-world international retrospective cohort trial, CVD-REAL, comparing the efficacy of various of sodium-glucose linked transporter-2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors with other antidiabetic drugs in regard to cardiovascular outcomes in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2). It is noted that this study supplements the already available results of randomized clinical trials, and indicates the potential of early prescription of SGLT-2 inhibitors for DM2 patients. Studies with a longer follow-up period are required to confirm the long-term and persistent effects of these drugs.
