Effect of Ertugliflozin on Cardiac Function in Diabetes

Summary

The aim of this study is to investigate the beneficial role of ertugliflozin, a new SGLT2 inhibitor, in cardiac function via measuring GLS as well as other hemodynamic factors using echocardiogram in patients with T2D and HF, who are not controlled with oral antidiabetic medications including DPP4 inhibitors.
