Figure 2. Cardiovascular outcomes of Asian patients. 3P-MACE: 3-point major adverse CV events (CV death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, or non-fatal stroke); 4P-MACE: 4-point major adverse CV events (CV death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, non-fatal stroke, or hospitalization for unstable angina); CI: confidence interval; CV: cardiovascular; DPP-4: dipeptidyl peptidase-4; GLP-1: glucagon-like peptide-1; SGLT2: sodium-glucose co-transporter-2. a95.47% CI. b95.6% CI. cNumerical data not provided but forest plot indicates no effect of treatment on outcome (CI crosses 1.00) [Citation61]. Point size is proportional to size of trial cohort (number of patients)

Figure 3. Kidney outcomes of Asian patients. CI: confidence interval; CV: cardiovascular; DPP-4: dipeptidyl peptidase-4; eGFR: estimated glomerular filtration rate; ESKD: end-stage kidney disease; RRT: renal-replacement therapy; SCr: serum creatinine; SGLT2: sodium-glucose co-transporter-2. aeGFR was measured in ml/min/1.73 m2. bMacroalbuminuria was defined as urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio >300 mg/g. Point size is proportional to size of trial cohort (number of patients)
