HbA1c levels significantly decreased after 24 months of treatment compared to the baseline value in the ipragliflozin group, but not in the control group. However, there was no significant difference between the changes in HbA1c levels in the two groups (7.4 ± 0.8% vs. 7.0 ± 0.9% in the ipragliflozin group and 7.4 ± 0.7% vs. 7.3 ± 0.7% in the control group; P = 0.08). There was no significant difference between FMD values at baseline and after 24 months in both groups (5.2 ± 2.6% vs. 5.2 ± 2.6%, P = 0.98 in the ipragliflozin group; 5.4 ± 2.9% vs. 5.0 ± 3.2%, P = 0.34 in the control group). There was no significant difference in the estimated percentage change in FMD between the two groups (P = 0.77).
