PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 1 year

Coronary artery calcification will be measured using non-contrast computed tomography (NCCT). The Agatston score, a standardized method for quantifying coronary calcification, will be used to assess and compare baseline and 1-year follow-up measurements between the dapagliflozin and placebo groups.
