Meeting Impression: Diabetes & Heart Failure: Evaluating novel strategies to address outcomes
During the ESC Heart Failure Congress 2016, held in Florence, Italy, PACE-CME organised a satellite symposium on diabetes and heart failure, two debilitating diseases, that aggravate each other when they coexist. During the symposium, current treatment options of diabetes in heart failure were discussed. The results of recent trials with SGLT2 inhibitors were summarised, and potential mechanisms of the observed clinical benefit were considered.
