Clinical Trial Summary

This study was designed to evaluate the change in triglyceride glucose index, one of the atherosclerotic markers, in patients with type 2 DM followed in the Internal Medicine Clinic of Samsun University, Samsun Training, and Research Hospital.

Methods: The data of the patients who were followed up for at least 3 months by making a retrospective file review will be recorded and analyzed. It is planned to start the study following the ethics committee's approval.

Description:

The data of all patients who applied to Samsun Training and Research Hospital Internal Medicine outpatient clinic for 12 months in 2022 and were started on SGLT-2 inhibitor will be examined. According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria stated below, the patients will be evaluated and the data of the patients admitted to the study will be analyzed. The triglyceride glucose index of the patients before starting the SGLT-2 injection and the trig/glucose index at the end of 3 months of treatment will be calculated by the researchers using the data in the system. No additional blood tests or laboratory analyses will be performed on the patients. Triglyceride, glucose, and glycosylated hemoglobin values were checked at the beginning of the treatment and at the 3rd-month follow-up.
