DOI: 10.1186/s12933-018-0695-y
Abstract: BackgroundCardiovascular protection following empagliflozin therapy is not entirely attributable to the glucose lowering effect. Increased hematocrit might influence the shear stress that is the main force acting on the endothelium, regulating its anti-atherogenic function.ObjectiveWe designed… read more here.
