Impact of newer antihyperglycemic agents on hepatic complications: A systematic review and meta-analysis of data from 5.3 million patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus

GLP-1 RAs and SGLT-2 inhibitors were associated with hepatoprotective effects compared with other glucose-lowering therapies in patients with T2DM, with GLP-1 RAs showing additional benefits in chronic liver disease. These findings provide evidence on the relationships between antidiabetic drug classes and liver-related outcomes in patients with T2DM and may inform clinical decision-making.

Abstract

GLP-1 RAs and SGLT-2 inhibitors were associated with hepatoprotective effects compared with other glucose-lowering therapies in patients with T2DM, with GLP-1 RAs showing additional benefits in chronic liver disease. These findings provide evidence on the relationships between antidiabetic drug classes and liver-related outcomes in patients with T2DM and may inform clinical decision-making.
