Prediction of new‐onset heart failure in patients with type 2 diabetes derived from ALTITUDE and CANVAS

Diabetes Obes MetabPublished Prediction model development and external validation study

Authors' conclusion

In patients with T2D, higher NT-proBNP level, TnT level and BMI are independent and externally validated predictors of new-onset HF, including patients using an SGLT2 inhibitor. This newly developed model may identify patients at high risk of new-onset HF, contributing to early recognition and possibly prevention.
