About

The aim of this study is to explore the effect of SGLT2i on the levels of cardiac biomarkers, inflammatory and stress markers in Egyptian heart failure patients to provide a better understanding of mechanism that might assist in tailoring treatment strategies in patients with various forms of HF especially in Egyptian population. Also understand how biomarkers may be employed to predict risk in patients receiving SGLT2i or identification of those who may derive the most benefit from SGLT2i in the means of individualized medicine.
