The effect of SGLT-2 inhibitors on liver stiffness in patients with diabetes mellitus and heart failure: a Fibroscan study.
Aim: Studies have shown an increase in liver stiffness (LS) by liver elastography in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) and regression of LS in patients receiving SGLT-2 inhibitors (SGLT-2i). We aimed to investigate liver stiffness and related factors before and after treatment with SGLT-2i in patients with diabetes and heart failure.
Methods: In our prospective and cross-sectional study, 237 patients with diabetes were included. Patients were divided into 3 groups according to the presence and status of heart failure. Patients were treated with SGLT-2i, and their pre- and post-treatment status was evaluated. LS measurements were performed with FibroScan® Mini 430 device (Echosens, France).
Results: NT-proBNP levels decreased significantly in all groups, with the most pronounced reduction in the HFrEF group (p < 0.001). Liver stiffness (kPa) also improved significantly in all groups, with the greatest change observed in the HFrEF group (Δ = 2.11 ± 1.1 kPa, p < 0.001). Similarly, HbA1c levels showed marked reductions across all groups, with the highest improvement seen in the group without heart failure (Δ = 1.28 ± 0.63%, p < 0.001).
Conclusion: Our findings reinforce the potential of SGLT-2i therapy to improve liver stiffness and related metabolic and cardiac parameters in diabetic patients, irrespective of heart failure status.
期刊介绍:
The Irish Journal of Medical Science is the official organ of the Royal Academy of Medicine in Ireland. Established in 1832, this quarterly journal is a contribution to medical science and an ideal forum for the younger medical/scientific professional to enter world literature and an ideal launching platform now, as in the past, for many a young research worker.
The primary role of both the Academy and IJMS is that of providing a forum for the exchange of scientific information and to promote academic discussion, so essential to scientific progress.
