Zusammenfassung: | Aims
To determine the effects of empagliflozin on blood pressure (BP) and markers of arterial stiffness and vascular resistance in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).
Methods
We conducted a post hoc analysis of data from a phase III trial in patients with T2DM and hypertension receiving 12 weeks' empagliflozin and four phase III trials in patients with T2DM receiving 24 weeks' empagliflozin (cohort 1, n = 823; cohort 2, n = 2477). BP was measured using 24‐h BP monitoring (cohort 1) or seated office measurements (cohort 2).
Results
Empagliflozin reduced systolic BP (SBP) and diastolic BP in both cohorts (p |
