Abstract

Review question / Objective: To compare the efficacy of SGLT-2i on prognostic improvement of heart failure.Condition being studied: The prognostic improvement of dapagliflozin and empagliflozin in Sodium-glucose Cotransport-2 Inhibitors (SGLT-2i) in patients with HF has been discovered.However which drug could improve varied prognostic outcomes have not been elucidated.Eligibility criteria: Inclusion criteria: (1) study subjects were patients with HF; (2) the drugs applied were dapagliflozin, empagliflozin, and placebo; (3) drug doses were consistent with most studies (both were10mg per day); (3) RCTs; and (4) reported at least one prognosis endpoint of interest.INPLASY registration number: This protocol was registered with the International Platform of Registered Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis Protocols (INPLASY) on 10 January 2022 and was last updated on 10 January 2022 (registration number INPLASY202210046).
