In this study we aimed to assess the prescribing trends of guidelines-recommended cardioprotective medications, including sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i), glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RA), angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors/angiotensin receptor blockers (ACEi/ARB), and high-intensity statins, among patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) in Qatar's primary health care corporation (PHCC). This evidence concerns the gene SLC5A2 and atherosclerosis.
