Abstract / Description of output

Sodium glucose co-transporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) have been proposed as a potential treatment for 3 adults hospitalised with COVID-19, due to their potential anti-inflammatory and endothelial protective 4 effects. To-date published evidence from randomised control trials (RCTs) does not provide evidence 5 of benefit. We aimed to estimate the effect of oral administration of SGLT2i compared with usual care 6 or placebo in adults hospitalised with COVID-19.
