The effects of empagliflozin, dietary energy restriction, or both on appetite‐regulatory gut peptides in individuals with type 2 diabetes and overweight or obesity: The SEESAW randomized, double‐blind, placebo‐controlled trial
Abstract
To assess the impact of the sodium‐glucose co‐transporter‐2 (SGLT2) inhibitor empagliflozin (25 mg once‐daily), dietary energy restriction, or both combined, on circulating appetite‐regulatory peptides in people with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and overweight or obesity.
How strong is the evidence?
Evidence Hub reads this as a randomized trial, done in people. Its evidence level is 2 of 5 (High · randomized trial). Randomized trials of a reasonable size are the strongest single-study design.
