🔥 HOT TOPIC 📗 @HEP_Journal Potentially practice-changing for patients with #MASLD and #type2diabetes, this study found that a #GLP-1 receptor agonist–SGLT-2 inhibitor combination was associated with a lower risk of major adverse liver and cardiovascular outcomes compared with either therapy alone. The study also highlights an innovative use of emulation trial methodology to evaluate potential clinical efficacy in the absence of prospective randomized trials.
