Older adults are more likely to have influenza and respond less well to the flu vaccine. We
conducted this study to investigate whether pre-influenza vaccination metformin use had an

Propensity score matching was used to identify 28,169 pairs of metformin users and
nonusers from Taiwan's National Health Insurance Research Database from 1 January
2000 to 31 December 2018. We used Cox proportional hazards models to calculate the risks …
