Racial, ethnic and regional differences in the effect of sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors and glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists on cardiovascular and renal outcomes: a systematic review and meta-analysis of cardiovascular outcome trials.

There appears to be substantial racial/ethnic differences in the cardiorenal effects of SGLT2-Is and GLP1-RAs in patients with T2D, with consistent benefits observed among White and Asian populations and consistent lack of benefits in Black populations. Whether the differences are due to issues with under-representation of Black populations and low statistical power or racial/ethnic variations in the pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and safety of SGLT2-Is and GLP1-RAs need further investigation.PROSPERO Registration: CRD42023401734.
