Baseline SGLT2 Inhibitor Use Associated with Lower Risk of Sepsis-Induced Cardiomyopathy and Improved Outcomes in Type 2 Diabetes: Insights from a Large Propensity-Matched Cohort

A large propensity-matched cohort study found that baseline SGLT2 inhibitor use versus DPP4 inhibitor therapy in adults with type 2 diabetes and infection was associated with lower 30-day sepsis-induced cardiomyopathy and improved 1-year mortality and cardiovascular outcomes; residual confounding and safety considerations warrant prospective trials.

SGLT2 Inhibitors Linked to Lower Parkinson’s Disease Risk Than Metformin in Type 2 Diabetes: Large Real‑World TriNetX Study Signals Class Neuroprotection

A 20‑year TriNetX analysis of 913,428 T2DM patients found SGLT2 inhibitor use associated with a 28% lower Parkinson’s disease risk versus metformin (aHR 0.72), suggesting possible superior neuroprotection and prompting need for prospective confirmation.
