Dapagliflozin in Patients with Heart Failure and Reduced Ejection Fraction
In this randomized, placebo-controlled trial, investigators evaluated the effects of the sodium–glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitor dapagliflozin in patients with heart failure and a reduced ejection fraction with or without type 2 diabetes. The risk of worsening heart failure or cardiovascular death...

| Summary: | In this randomized, placebo-controlled trial, investigators evaluated the effects of the sodium–glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitor dapagliflozin in patients with heart failure and a reduced ejection fraction with or without type 2 diabetes. The risk of worsening heart failure or cardiovascular death was lower among those who received dapagliflozin, regardless of the presence or absence of diabetes. |
