First seen Apr 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 12, 2026 · Updated 11 times

Summary

This study looks at how a common diabetes drug (SGLT2 inhibitor) changes the way the heart and muscles use energy from ketones. Researchers want to see if these changes can improve exercise ability and daily function in 30 adults with type 2 diabetes and heart failure. Participants will take the drug and undergo tests like MRI scans and walking tests to measure energy levels and heart function.
