Summary
This study looked at whether dapagliflozin, a diabetes medication, can improve how the heart uses sugar and blood flow in people with type 2 diabetes and stable coronary artery disease. 25 adults took either the drug or a placebo for 4 weeks. The goal was to see if the drug helps the heart work better, not to cure diabetes or heart disease. Participants continued their usual diabetes care.
