Abstract
INTRODUCTION Gliflozins are recommended as first-line treatment in patients with heart failure and/or cardiovascular comorbidities and are demonstrated to reduce atrial fibrillation (AF) occurrence. However, it is not well known which gliflozin yields the larger cardioprotection in terms of AF occurrence reduction. Hence, we aimed to compare data regarding AF recurrence associated with different gliflozins. METHODS An accurate search of online scientific libraries (from inception to June 1, 2023) was performed. Fifty-nine studies were included in the meta-analysis involving 108 026 patients, of whom 60 097 received gliflozins and 47 929 received placebo. RESULTS Gliflozins provided a statistically significant reduction of AF occurrence relative to standard of care therapy in the overall population (relative risks [RR]: 0.8880, 95% CI: [0.8059; 0.9784], p = .0164) and in patients with diabetes and cardiorenal diseases (RR: 0.8352, 95% CI: [0.7219; 0.9663], p = .0155). Dapagliflozin significantly decreased AF occurrence as compared to placebo (0.7259 [0.6337; 0.8316], p < .0001) in the overall population, in patients with diabetes (RR: 0.2482, 95% CI: [0.0682; 0.9033], p = .0345), with diabetes associated with cardiorenal diseases (RR: 0.7192, 95% CI: [0.5679; 0.9110], p = .0063) and in the subanalysis including studies with follow-up ≥1 year (RR: 0.7792, 95% CI: [0.6508; 0.9330], p = .0066). No significant differences in terms of AF protection were found among different gliflozins. CONCLUSIONS Dapagliflozin use was associated with significant reduction in AF risk as compared to placebo in overall population and patients with diabetes, whereas the use of other gliflozins did not significantly reduce AF occurrence.

Impact of initiation of SGLT2 inhibitor treatment on the development of arrhythmias in patients with implantable cardiac devices. REVISTA ESPANOLA DE CARDIOLOGIA (ENGLISH ED.) 2024; 77:481-489.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES Sodium-glucose cotransporter type 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) have been associated with improved prognosis in patients with heart failure, but their impact on atrial arrhythmic (AA) and ventricular arrhythmic (VA) events is not fully understood. METHODS This multicenter retrospective study included patients with implantable cardioverter-defibrillators who initiated treatment with SGLT2i. AA and VA events were compared in 2 time periods for each patient: 1 year before and 1 year after starting SGLT2i. RESULTS The study included 195 patients (66.8 [61.3-73.1] years, 18.5% women). In the post-SGLT2i period, there was a reduction in the percentage of patients with any VA (pre: 52.3% vs post: 30.3%; P<.001) and clinically relevant VA (excluding nonsustained ventricular tachycardia) (pre: 21.5% vs post: 8.7%; P<.001). There was also a decrease in the number of episodes per patient/y of nonsustained ventricular tachycardia (pre: 2 (1-5) vs post: 1 (0-2); P<.001) and sustained ventricular tachycardia (pre: 1 (1-3) vs post: 0 (0-2); P=0.046). However, no differences were observed in the prevalence of AA (24.7% vs 18.8%; P=.117) or the burden of atrial fibrillation (pre: 0% (0-0.1) vs post: 0% (0-0); P=.097). CONCLUSIONS Initiation of SGLT2i treatment was associated with a decrease in the percentage of patients with relevant VA but this effect was not observed for AA.

Expert Rev Cardiovasc Ther 2023; 21:803-816. [PMID: 37856368 DOI: 10.1080/14779072.2023.2273900] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/16/2023] [Accepted: 10/18/2023] [Indexed: 10/21/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Sodium glucose co-transporter 2-inhibitors (SGLT2-I), antihyperglycemic agents, are increasingly prescribed in chronic heart failure (CHF). Their risk for drug-drug interactions (DDI) seems low. Safety-data derive mainly from diabetes-patients. This review aims to summarize adverse-events (AE) and DDI of the SGLT2-I dapagliflozin, empagliflozin and sotagliflozin in patients with CHF. AREAS COVERED Literature-search-terms in PubMed were 'adverse event/drug-drug interaction' and 'heart failure AND 'dapagliflozin' OR 'empagliflozin' OR 'sotagliflozin.'AEreported in randomized controlled trials (RCT) comprisegenitaland urinary-tract infections, hypotension, ketoacidosis, renal impairment, hypoglycemia, limb-amputations, Fournier's gangrene, bone-fractures, hepatopathy, pancreatitis, diarrhea, malignancy and venous thromboembolism. Their incidence is largely unknown, since they were not consistently evaluated in RCT of CHF. Further AE from meta-analyses, pharmacovigilance reports, case-series and case-reports include erythrocytosis, hypertriglyceridemia, myopathy, sarcopenia, skin problems, ventricular tachycardia, and urinary retention. The maximal observation period of RCT in CHF was 26 months.DDI were mainly studied in healthy volunteers for 3-8 days. In CHF or diabetes-patients, DDI were reported with interleukin-17-inhibitors, linezolid, lithium, tacrolimus, valproate, angiotensin-receptor-neprilysin-inhibitors and intravenous iron. EXPERT OPINION Guidelines recommend treatment with SGLT2-I for CHF but no data on AE during long-term therapy and only little information on DDI are available, which stresses the need for further research. Evidence-based recommendations for ketoacidosis-prevention are desirable.
