Short Term Effect of Empagliflozin on Left Ventricular Relaxation in Non Diabetic Hypertensive Patients
Abstract
The investigators assessed the 6-week effect of once daily 25mg SGLT2-i Empagliflozin on left ventricular diastolic function and blood pressure profile in non diabetic hypertensive patients
Conditions: Hypertension.
Primary outcome: Left ventricular diastolic function.
Enrollment: 15 participants.
How strong is the evidence?
Evidence Hub reads this as a clinical trial, done in people. Its evidence level is 3 of 5 (Moderate · trial / cohort / secondary analysis). Trials without a large randomized design, cohorts and secondary analyses give moderate evidence. Reported size: 15 participants or records.
