Condition(s) studied

Pre-Heart FailureHypertension

Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)

Empagliflozin 10 MG →Placebo

Empagliflozin 10 MG: Each participant in the empagliflozin treatment group takes a daily dose of 10mg.

Placebo: Each participant in the placebo group takes matching placebo.

Study summary

In this multicenter, randomized, placebo-controlled trial in pre-heat failure patients with hypertension and without diabetes, we will enroll 120 eligible patients to randomized to receive placebo or engagliflozin (10mg/d) for follow them for 6 months. The primary endpoint is the left atrial volume index, which reflects left ventricular diastolic function. We sought to comprehensively evaluate the effect of engagliflozin on the structure and function and explore its underlying mechanisms.
