Effective management strategies include medical therapy for rate and rhythm control, catheter ablation (CA), and goal\u2010directed medical therapy. Sodium\u2010glucose co\u2010transporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i), a novel class of antidiabetic drugs, have shown a promising impact in reducing cardiovascular events in diabetic and nondiabetic heart failure (HF) patients. It is unclear what impact SGLT2i use may have on AF recurrence following CA. To evaluate the effects of SGLT2i on preventing AF recurrence following CA and its impact on other cardiovascular outcomes. We performed a comprehensive literature search through multiple search engines (PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, and Cochrane) to include eligible studies using the appropriate keywords until 10 April 2024. Our search yielded nine eligible studies with 16\u2009857 patients. Our analysis reveals a significant reduction in AF recurrence after CA among patients receiving SGLT2i compared to non\u2010SGLT2i medications (RR\u2009=\u20090.72, 95% CI [0.67\u20130.78], <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u20090.00001). Additionally, SGLT2i therapy was associated with decreased all\u2010cause hospitalizations and reduced risk of ischemic stroke. However, no significant difference in all\u2010cause mortality was observed between SGLT2i and non\u2010SGLT2i groups. Our study found that SGLT2 inhibitors significantly reduced AF recurrence post\u2010CA in diabetic patients. Moreover, SGLT2i use was associated with lowered hospitalization and ischemic stroke risk. Though no significant difference in mortality was noted, the decrease in hospitalization suggests a possible favorable effect on cardiovascular events.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/jce.16544","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,1,10]],"date-time":"2025-01-10T06:40:38Z","timestamp":1736491238000},"page":"673-682","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":19,"title":["Impact
