Summary

This study used health records from over 450,000 adults with obesity and type 2 diabetes to see if adding a second medication early (like GLP-1 or SGLT2 drugs) improves survival and kidney health. Researchers compared those who added another drug within 90 days to those who did not. The goal was to understand which treatment strategies work best for preventing death and serious heart or kidney problems.
