TriNetX retrospective 123,709 vaccinated patients with type 2 diabetes, showing significantly lower risk of COVID-19 mortality, mechanical ventilation, and hospitalization with metformin use. There was no significant difference for cases. The increasing benefit for more serious outcomes matches the results of studies to date.
risk of death, 25.0% lower, HR 0.75, p = 0.001, treatment 232 of 20,894 (1.1%), control 295 of 20,894 (1.4%), NNT 332, propensity score matching, Kaplan–Meier.
risk of mechanical ventilation, 25.0% lower, HR 0.75, p = 0.01, treatment 133 of 20,894 (0.6%), control 168 of 20,894 (0.8%), NNT 597, propensity score matching, Kaplan–Meier.
risk of ICU admission, 19.0% lower, HR 0.81, p = 0.005, treatment 332 of 20,894 (1.6%), control 390 of 20,894 (1.9%), NNT 360, propensity score matching, Kaplan–Meier.
risk of hospitalization, 15.0% lower, HR 0.85, p < 0.001, treatment 2,820 of 20,894 (13.5%), control 3,139 of 20,894 (15.0%), NNT 65, propensity score matching, Kaplan–Meier.
risk of case, 2.0% higher, HR 1.02, p = 0.63, treatment 1,467 of 20,894 (7.0%), control 1,364 of 20,894 (6.5%), propensity score matching, Kaplan–Meier.
Effect extraction follows pre-specified rules prioritizing more serious outcomes. Submit updates
