ABSTRACT Background and Aims Glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor agonists (GLP‐1 RAs) sodium‐glucose cotransporter‐2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) have demonstrated long‐term liver benefits in patients with metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic disease (MASLD) type 2 diabetes (T2D). However, no direct comparison between these therapies has been conducted. This study aimed to compare major adverse outcomes (MALOs) GLP‐1 RAs SGLT2is MASLD T2D. Methods Using the TriNetX Research Network, a...

Abstract The long‐term risk of herpes zoster (HZ) after recovery from a SARS‐CoV‐2 infection is unclear. This retrospective cohort study assessed the HZ in patients following COVID‐19 diagnosis. retrospective, propensity score‐matched was based on multi‐institutional research network TriNetX. incident with compared that those not infected during 1‐year follow‐up period. Hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) its subtypes were calculated. identified 1 221 343 without diagnoses...

The effect of nirmatrelvir plus ritonavir (NMV-r) on post-acute COVID-19 sequelae beyond 3 months SARS-CoV-2 infection remains unknown. This retrospective cohort study utilized data from the TriNetX Research Network. We identified nonhospitalized adult patients with receiving a diagnosis between January 1 and July 31, 2022. Propensity score matching (PSM) was used to create two matched cohorts: NMV-r non-NMV-r groups, respectively. measured primary outcomes using composite all-cause...

Abstract The aim of this study was to investigate the clinical efficacy a combination nirmatrelvir and ritonavir (NMV‐r) for treating COVID‐19 in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM). This retrospective cohort used TriNetX research network identify adult diabetic between January 1, 2020, December 31, 2022. Propensity score matching match who received NMV‐r (NMV‐r group) those did not receive (control group). primary outcome all‐cause hospitalization or death during 30‐day follow‐up period....

Abstract Several randomized controlled trials and real‐world cohort studies have demonstrated the efficacies of nirmatrelvir plus ritonavir (NMV‐r) molnupiravir (MOV) in at‐risk patients with COVID‐19; however, effectiveness antisevere acute respiratory syndrome‐coronavirus 2 treatments on older (≥65 years) remains unclear. This retrospective study aimed to assess clinical oral antiviral agents, MOV NMV‐r, infected severe 2. Nonhospitalized COVID‐19 between January 1, 2022, December 31, were...

Abstract Although a novel oral antiviral agent can improve short‐term COVID‐19 outcomes, its effects on the long‐term namely risk of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs), remains unknown. This retrospective cohort study used TriNetX research network to identify nonhospitalized adult patients with between March 1, 2020, and January 2022. A propensity score matching method was form two matched cohorts without receiving nirmatrelvir–ritonavir (NMV‐r) or molnupiravir. The primary outcome...

Abstract This study assessed the clinical efficacy of nirmatrelvir plus ritonavir (NMV‐r) in treating patients with coronavirus disease‐2019 (COVID‐19) and substance use disorders (SUDs). included two cohorts: first examined SUDs, without a prescription for NMV‐r, while second compared prescribed diagnosis SUDs. SUDs were defined using ICD‐10 codes, related to including alcohol, cannabis, cocaine, opioid, tobacco (TUD). Patients underlying COVID‐19 identified TriNetX network. We used 1:1...

Abstract The retrospective cohort was conducted to assess the effect of nirmatrelvir‐ritonavir (NMV‐r) on long‐term risk neuropsychiatric sequela following COVID‐19. TriNetX research network used identify nonhospitalized adult patients who tested positive for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 infection or were diagnosed with COVID‐19 between March 1, 2020 and July 2022. Further propensity score matching method create two matched cohorts without receiving NMV‐r. primary outcome...
