sulfonylureas (n = 159,465)
dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP4) inhibitors (n = 117,989)

Controls composed of initiating sulfonylureas, DPP4 inhibitors and SGLT2 inhibitors (n = 536,068), or who continued the use of non-GLP-1RA antihyperglycemics (usual care n=1,203,097).

Reduction of HCC risk with GLP-1RA in diabetics? Comparisons between the GLP-1RA use group (n = 215,970) and the usual care group who continued use of non-GLP-1RA antihyperglycemics (n = 1,203,097), from the VA database. Risk reduction 18%.
