Highlights The beneficial cardiovascular (CV) effects of SGLT-2 inhibitors (SGLT-2i) in patients with heart failure are already known. Whether SGLT-2i exert similar CV effects in heart failure with reduced or preserved ejection fraction is not known. This meta-analysis showed SGLT-2i exert similar CV benefits irrespective of the types of heart failure. Future trials will confirm or refute the CV effects of SGLT-2i in patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction.
