DOI: 10.2337/db19-2367-pub
Abstract: Background: Some evidence suggests an association of SGLT2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) with an increased risk of euglycemic DKA (euDKA). The incidence and possible procedure-related triggers of metabolic abnormalities in patients taking SGLT2i after coronary angiography has… read more here.
