Abstract
PURPOSE Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is a serious microvascular complication of diabetes mellitus. Significantly reduced levels of autophagy in diabetic kidneys play an important role in the development of DN. The present study investigated the effects of dapagliflozin (DAP) on renal autophagy and AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK)/mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathway in vivo and in vitro. METHODS We explored the effect of DAP in streptozotocin (STZ)-induced DN rats. The anti-DN effect of DAP was assessed by body weight, kidney weight/body weight ratio, blood and urine biochemical parameters, and pathological changes of kidney tissue. Number of autophagosomes in the kidney was investigated through Transmission electron microscopy. Besides, cell viability and apoptosis of DAP alone or combined with Compound C (CC, a selective AMPK inhibitor)-treated high glucose (HG)-induced HK-2 cells were detected by Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) and flow cytometry assays. Immunohistochemistry, Western blot, Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), and immunofluorescence were employed to detect the expression levels of extracellular matrix (ECM) deposition, autophagy, apoptosis, and AMPK/mTOR pathway-associated targets in vivo and in vitro. RESULTS The results showed that DAP ameliorated the body weight and decreased kidney weight, fasting blood glucose, and serum/urine biochemical parameters of renal damage, as well as renal pathological changes. Moreover, DAP significantly ameliorated HG-induced cell apoptosis and ECM deposition in HK-2 cells. However, these favorable effects of DAP could be abolished by co-treatment with CC in HG-induced HK-2 cells. Mechanistically, DAP can enhance autophagy in DN including increased LC3-II/I ratio, Beclin-1, p-AMPK protein levels, and decreased p62 and p-mTOR protein expressions, as well as inhibited renal fibrosis and apoptosis. CONCLUSION In summary, DAP alleviated fibrosis, apoptosis, and autophagy in DN rats and HG-induced HK-2 cells by regulating the AMPK/mTOR pathway.

Sodium-glucose co-transporter protein 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors for people with chronic kidney disease and diabetes. Cochrane Database Syst Rev 2024; 5:CD015588. [PMID: 38770818 PMCID: PMC11106805 DOI: 10.1002/14651858.cd015588.pub2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 05/22/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Diabetes is associated with high risks of premature chronic kidney disease (CKD), cardiovascular diseases, cardiovascular death and impaired quality of life. People with diabetes are more likely to develop kidney impairment, and approximately one in three adults with diabetes have CKD. People with CKD and diabetes experience a substantially higher risk of cardiovascular outcomes. Sodium-glucose co-transporter protein 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors have shown potential effects in preventing kidney and cardiovascular outcomes in people with CKD and diabetes. However, new trials are emerging rapidly, and evidence synthesis is essential to summarising cumulative evidence. OBJECTIVES This review aimed to assess the benefits and harms of SGLT2 inhibitors for people with CKD and diabetes. SEARCH METHODS We searched the Cochrane Kidney and Transplant Register of Studies up to 17 November 2023 using a search strategy designed by an Information Specialist. Studies in the Register are continually identified through regular searches of CENTRAL, MEDLINE, and EMBASE, conference proceedings, the International Clinical Trials Registry Platform (ICTRP) Search Portal and ClinicalTrials.gov. SELECTION CRITERIA Randomised controlled studies were eligible if they evaluated SGLT2 inhibitors versus placebo, standard care or other glucose-lowering agents in people with CKD and diabetes. CKD includes all stages (from 1 to 5), including dialysis patients. DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS Two authors independently extracted data and assessed the study risk of bias. Treatment estimates were summarised using random effects meta-analysis and expressed as a risk ratio (RR) or mean difference (MD), with a corresponding 95% confidence interval (CI). Confidence in the evidence was assessed using the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) approach. The primary review outcomes were all-cause death, 3-point and 4-point major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), fatal or nonfatal myocardial infarction (MI), fatal or nonfatal stroke, and kidney failure. MAIN RESULTS Fifty-three studies randomising 65,241 people with CKD and diabetes were included. SGLT2 inhibitors with or without other background treatments were compared to placebo, standard care, sulfonylurea, dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors, or insulin. In the majority of domains, the risks of bias in the included studies were low or unclear. No studies evaluated the treatment in children or in people treated with dialysis. No studies compared SGLT2 inhibitors with glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists or tirzepatide. Compared to placebo, SGLT2 inhibitors decreased the risk of all-cause death (20 studies, 44,397 participants: RR 0.85, 95% CI 0.78 to 0.94; I2 = 0%; high certainty) and cardiovascular death (16 studies, 43,792 participants: RR 0.83, 95% CI 0.74 to 0.93; I2 = 29%; high certainty). Compared to placebo, SGLT2 inhibitors probably make little or no difference to the risk of fatal or nonfatal MI (2 studies, 13,726 participants: RR 0.95, 95% CI 0.80 to 1.14; I2 = 24%; moderate certainty), and fatal or nonfatal stroke (2 studies, 13,726 participants: RR 1.07, 95% CI 0.88 to 1.30; I2 = 0%; moderate certainty). Compared to placebo, SGLT2 inhibitors probably decrease 3-point MACE (7 studies, 38,320 participants: RR 0.89, 95% CI 0.81 to 0.98; I2 = 46%; moderate certainty), and 4-point MACE (4 studies, 23,539 participants: RR 0.82, 95% CI 0.70 to 0.96; I2 = 77%; moderate certainty), and decrease hospital admission due to heart failure (6 studies, 28,339 participants: RR 0.70, 95% CI 0.62 to 0.79; I2 = 17%; high certainty). Compared to placebo, SGLT2 inhibitors may decrease creatinine clearance (1 study, 132 participants: MD -2.63 mL/min, 95% CI -5.19 to -0.07; low certainty) and probably decrease the doubling of serum creatinine (2 studies, 12,647 participants: RR 0.70, 95% CI 0.56 to 0.89; I2 = 53%; moderate certainty). SGLT2 inhibitors decrease the risk of kidney failure (6 studies, 11,232 participants: RR 0.70, 95% CI 0.62 to 0.79; I2 = 0%; high certainty), and kidney composite outcomes (generally reported as kidney failure, kidney death with or without ≥ 40% decrease in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR)) (7 studies, 36,380 participants: RR 0.68, 95% CI 0.59 to 0.78; I2 = 25%; high certainty) compared to placebo. Compared to placebo, SGLT2 inhibitors incur less hypoglycaemia (16 studies, 28,322 participants: RR 0.93, 95% CI 0.89 to 0.98; I2 = 0%; high certainty), and hypoglycaemia requiring third-party assistance (14 studies, 26,478 participants: RR 0.75, 95% CI 0.65 to 0.88; I2 = 0%; high certainty), and probably decrease the withdrawal from treatment due to adverse events (15 studies, 16,622 participants: RR 0.94, 95% CI 0.82 to 1.08; I2 = 16%; moderate certainty). The effects of SGLT2 inhibitors on eGFR, amputation and fracture were uncertain. No studies evaluated the effects of treatment on fatigue, life participation, or lactic acidosis. The effects of SGLT2 inhibitors compared to standard care alone, sulfonylurea, DPP-4 inhibitors, or insulin were uncertain. AUTHORS' CONCLUSIONS SGLT2 inhibitors alone or added to standard care decrease all-cause death, cardiovascular death, and kidney failure and probably decrease major cardiovascular events while incurring less hypoglycaemia compared to placebo in people with CKD and diabetes.

Addition of adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells improves empagliflozin therapy for alleviating hyperglycemia--induced neuropathy. Am J Transl Res 2023; 15:6264-6285. [PMID: 37969202 PMCID: PMC10641353] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/31/2023] [Accepted: 10/11/2023] [Indexed: 11/17/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND We examined the impact of adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cell (ADMSC)-facilitated empagliflozin (EMPA) therapy for alleviating hyperglycemic induced neuropathy [i.e., diabetic neuropathy (DN)]. METHODS Study constituted N2a cell culture and rats to be classified into groups 1 (sham-operated-control)/2 (DN)/3 (DN + empagliflozin/20 mg/kg/daily orally for 6 weeks since post-day-7 DN induction)/4 (DN + ADMSCs/1.2 × 106 cells by vein transfusion at time intervals of 1/3/5 weeks after DN induction)/5 (DN + empagliflozin + ADMSCs) and sacrificed by day-42 after DN induction. RESULTS In vitro results showed that, compared to N2a cells, the cellular levels of senescence/DNA-damage and protein expressions of oxidative-stress (OS), apoptotic, autophagic and inflammatory biomarkers were significantly higher in N2a + glucose (25 mM) but were significantly reversed in N2a + glucose + ADMSCs, whereas the cellular levels of mitochondrial cytochrome C and protein levels of anti-oxidants displayed an opposite pattern of OS (all P<0.001). The above-mentioned parameters (i.e., OS/apoptosis/fibrosis/autophagy/DNA-damage) were lowest in N2a cells, highest in N2a + glucose and significantly higher in N2a + glucose + EMPA (50 μM) than in N2a + glucose + EMPA (150 μM) (all P<0.001). By days 7/14/21/28/35/42 after DN induction, the values of thermal paw-withdrawal-latency (TPWL)/mechanical-paw-withdrawal-threshold were highest in group 1 and significantly progressively increased from groups 2/4/3/5 (all P<0.0001). The cellular levels of unmyelinated C- and myelinated A-δ fibers, and protein levels of OS/apoptotic/DNA-damaged/fibrotic/autophagic/inflammatory/pain-facilitated/voltage-gated sodium channel biomarkers in L4-L5 levels of dorsal-root-ganglia exhibited an contradictory manner of TPWL among the groups (all P<0.0001). CONCLUSIONS Combination of EMPA and ADMSC therapy was superior to either alone for improving outcomes of DN.

Treatment effect heterogeneity following type 2 diabetes treatment with GLP1-receptor agonists and SGLT2-inhibitors: a systematic review. COMMUNICATIONS MEDICINE 2023; 3:131. [PMID: 37794166 PMCID: PMC10551026 DOI: 10.1038/s43856-023-00359-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/10/2023] [Accepted: 09/15/2023] [Indexed: 10/06/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND A precision medicine approach in type 2 diabetes requires the identification of clinical and biological features that are reproducibly associated with differences in clinical outcomes with specific anti-hyperglycaemic therapies. Robust evidence of such treatment effect heterogeneity could support more individualized clinical decisions on optimal type 2 diabetes therapy. METHODS We performed a pre-registered systematic review of meta-analysis studies, randomized control trials, and observational studies evaluating clinical and biological features associated with heterogenous treatment effects for SGLT2-inhibitor and GLP1-receptor agonist therapies, considering glycaemic, cardiovascular, and renal outcomes. After screening 5,686 studies, we included 101 studies of SGLT2-inhibitors and 75 studies of GLP1-receptor agonists in the final systematic review. RESULTS Here we show that the majority of included papers have methodological limitations precluding robust assessment of treatment effect heterogeneity. For SGLT2-inhibitors, multiple observational studies suggest lower renal function as a predictor of lesser glycaemic response, while markers of reduced insulin secretion predict lesser glycaemic response with GLP1-receptor agonists. For both therapies, multiple post-hoc analyses of randomized control trials (including trial meta-analysis) identify minimal clinically relevant treatment effect heterogeneity for cardiovascular and renal outcomes. CONCLUSIONS Current evidence on treatment effect heterogeneity for SGLT2-inhibitor and GLP1-receptor agonist therapies is limited, likely reflecting the methodological limitations of published studies. Robust and appropriately powered studies are required to understand type 2 diabetes treatment effect heterogeneity and evaluate the potential for precision medicine to inform future clinical care.

Comparative Safety Analysis of Empagliflozin in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Patients with Chronic Kidney Disease versus Normal Kidney Function: A Nationwide Cohort Study in Korea. Pharmaceutics 2023; 15:2394. [PMID: 37896154 PMCID: PMC10610004 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics15102394] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/24/2023] [Revised: 09/22/2023] [Accepted: 09/26/2023] [Indexed: 10/29/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Empagliflozin has been shown to reduce cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in patients with type 2 diabetes. Various research on its efficacy in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) have been actively conducted. So far, few studies have investigated the safety of these adverse effects specifically in Asians with CKD. We aim to address these safety concerns on a patient population of Asian CKD patients using real-world data. METHODS We conducted a retrospective cohort study using health insurance data from the Korean Health Insurance Review & Assessment Service and compared safety outcomes between empagliflozin and sitagliptin in 26,347 CKD patients diagnosed with diabetes. Adverse outcomes, including major adverse cardiac events (MACEs), all-cause mortality, myocardial infarction (MI), stroke, and hospitalization for heart failure (HHF), among others, were assessed. RESULTS Among a 1:1 matched cohort (6170 on empagliflozin, 6170 on sitagliptin), empagliflozin was associated with a significant reduction in MACEs, all-cause mortality, MI, hospitalization for unstable angina, coronary revascularization, HHF, hypoglycemic events, and urinary tract infections, but increased the risk of genital tract infections. No significant changes were observed for transient ischemic attack, acute kidney injury, volume depletion, diabetic ketoacidosis, thromboembolic events, and fractures. CONCLUSIONS The usage of empagliflozin in diabetic CKD patients shows a significant reduction in many adverse outcomes compared to sitagliptin, but with an increased risk of genital tract infections. These findings provide evidence for future clinical decision-making around the use of empagliflozin in Asian CKD patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The changes in the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and predictors of the renal prognosis were retrospectively assessed over the 12 months after the initiation of tofogliflozin, which has the shortest half-life among sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors, in Japanese patients with type 2 diabetes and renal impairment. METHODS In total, 158 patients treated with tofogliflozin between 2019 and 2021 were studied as the safety analysis set. One hundred and thirty subjects whose medication was continued over 12 months were investigated as the full analysis set. The subjects were divided into two groups based on the eGFR: normal- (eGFR ≥60 mL/min/1.73 m2, n = 87) and low- (eGFR <60 mL/min/1.73 m2, n = 43) eGFR groups. RESULTS The body weight, blood pressure, urinary protein excretion, and serum uric acid concentration decreased from baseline in both eGFR groups while the hemoglobin level increased. The eGFR did not significantly differ over time, except for the initial dip (-4.3±9.6 mL/min/1.73 m2 in the normal-eGFR group and -1.5±5.3 mL/min/1.73 m2 in the low-eGFR group). The change in the eGFR at 12 months after the initiation of tofogliflozin was -1.9±9.0 mL/min/1.73 m2 and 0.2±6.0 mL/min/1.73 m2 in the normal- and low-eGFR group, respectively. In the normal-eGFR group, the change in the eGFR showed a significant negative correlation with the HbA1c and eGFR at baseline, according to a multiple regression analysis. In the low-eGFR group, the change in the eGFR showed a significant negative correlation with urate-lowering agent use. The frequencies of adverse events specific for SGLT2 inhibitors were not significantly different between the normal- and low-eGFR groups. CONCLUSIONS Tofogliflozin may preserve renal function in the medium term in patients with type 2 diabetes and kidney impairment without an increase in specific adverse events.

Abstract
Background Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is an incurable disease requiring lifelong management. China has a high prevalence of CKD, which disproportionately affects older adults and those with chronic risk factors for CKD development. The rising prevalence of CKD in China places a substantial burden on the general population and the healthcare system. Summary In China, there are currently many unmet needs for patients with CKD and high-risk individuals, resulting from a lack of education and support to reduce risk factors, delayed diagnoses, limited knowledge of CKD among primary-care physicians, and poor access to treatments among some patient populations. An integrated, nationwide approach is required to improve the current situation of CKD management in China. There are currently several national healthcare frameworks in place that focus on new major health policies to prevent disease and encourage people to adopt healthier lifestyles, and while they do not directly target CKD, they may have a positive indirect impact. We explore the unmet needs for patients with CKD in China and discuss the potential strategies that may be required to overcome them. Such strategies include improving physician and patient education, establishing a targeted screening programme, supporting patients to improve self-management behaviours, accelerating the creation of medical consortia and medical satellite centres, and migrating from hospital- to community-based management. In addition to policy-driven strategies, development of novel therapies will be key to providing new solutions for the long-term management of CKD. Key Messages An integrated, nationwide approach is required, incorporating policy-driven changes to the clinical management of CKD, as well as the development of novel CKD treatments.

JOURNAL OF HEALTH, POPULATION, AND NUTRITION 2023; 42:61. [PMID: 37408009 DOI: 10.1186/s41043-023-00406-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/08/2023] [Accepted: 06/28/2023] [Indexed: 07/07/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE Chronic kidney disease (CKD) has been one of the most common complications in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients. This retrospective study aimed to investigate the regional differences in the prevalence and management of CKD in T2DM inpatients from two grassroots hospitals in Beijing and Taiyuan. METHODS The sociodemographic status, health history, lifestyle information, biochemical parameters and drug choices of the patients were collected from the Diabetes Care Information System using a retrospective cross-sectional analysis. The presence of CKD was defined as albuminuria (urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio of ≥ 30 mg/g) and/or as a reduced estimated glomerular filtration rate (< 60 ml/min/1.73 m2). RESULTS 858 patients with T2DM in Beijing and 1,085 patients with T2DM in Taiyuan were included, with a median age of 61.0 and 61.9 years, respectively. The duration of diabetes was 10.5 and 10.3 years, respectively. The prevalence of CKD in Beijing (39.2%) was significantly higher than in Taiyuan (22.4%). The overall ABC control (A = haemoglobin A1c; B = blood pressure; C = cholesterol) in both the Beijing and Taiyuan groups were not ideal. Patients with CKD tended to use insulin, renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) inhibitors, sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT-2i) and dyslipidaemia therapy in Taiyuan than in Beijing. The actual proportion of carbohydrate, fat and protein in calories was 49.6%:35.4%:14.4% in Beijing and 61.5%:27.8%:10.8% in Taiyuan. CONCLUSIONS The higher prescription rates of RAAS inhibitors, SGLT-2i and dyslipidaemia therapy may underlie the fluctuations in the prevalence of CKD in Beijing or Taiyuan. Intensive insulin therapy and personal nutritional guidance, along with the extensive use of RAAS inhibitors, SGLT-2i and dyslipidaemia therapy during follow-up, can all play a positive role in the management of CKD in patients with T2DM in both Beijing and Taiyuan.

Significance of Endothelial Dysfunction Amelioration for Sodium-Glucose Cotransporter 2 Inhibitor-Induced Improvements in Heart Failure and Chronic Kidney Disease in Diabetic Patients. Metabolites 2023; 13:736. [PMID: 37367894 DOI: 10.3390/metabo13060736] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/19/2023] [Revised: 05/29/2023] [Accepted: 06/07/2023] [Indexed: 06/28/2023] Open
Abstract
Beyond lowering plasma glucose levels, sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) significantly reduce hospitalization for heart failure (HF) and retard the progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD) in patients with type 2 diabetes. Endothelial dysfunction is not only involved in the development and progression of cardiovascular disease (CVD), but is also associated with the progression of CKD. In patients with type 2 diabetes, hyperglycemia, insulin resistance, hyperinsulinemia and dyslipidemia induce the development of endothelial dysfunction. SGLT2is have been shown to improve endothelial dysfunction, as assessed by flow-mediated vasodilation, in individuals at high risk of CVD. Along with an improvement in endothelial dysfunction, SGLT2is have been shown to improve oxidative stress, inflammation, mitochondrial dysfunction, glucotoxicity, such as the advanced signaling of glycation end products, and nitric oxide bioavailability. The improvements in endothelial dysfunction and such endothelium-derived factors may play an important role in preventing the development of coronary artery disease, coronary microvascular dysfunction and diabetic cardiomyopathy, which cause HF, and play a role in retarding CKD. The suppression of the development of HF and the progression of CKD achieved by SGLT2is might have been largely induced by their capacity to improve vascular endothelial function.

Effects of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists and sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors on cardiovascular and kidney outcomes in Asian versus White patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Diabetes Metab Syndr 2023; 17:102804. [PMID: 37315473 DOI: 10.1016/j.dsx.2023.102804] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/09/2023] [Revised: 05/08/2023] [Accepted: 06/02/2023] [Indexed: 06/16/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The study aimed to assess the treatment effects of the two medications on cardiovascular and kidney outcomes in Asian compared with White patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). METHODS MEDLINE, EMBASE, and CENTRAL were searched up to October 31, 2022. We included the trials that assessed the effects of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RA) or sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) versus placebo in Asian and White patients with T2DM on major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) and kidney outcomes. The Bucher method was used to perform an indirect comparison for estimating the differences in treatment effects of GLP-1 RA and SGLT2i between Asian versus White patients. Interaction tests were also performed for treatment-by-race to assess the potential effect modification by race. RESULTS We included 22 publications from 13 randomized trials. For MACE, there were no differences in treatment effects of GLP-1 RA (HR = 0.84, 95% CI: 0.68-1.04) or SGLT2i (HR = 0.90, 95% CI: 0.72-1.13) in Asian versus White patients. No differences in treatment effects of SGLT2i on kidney outcomes in Asian versus White patients were found (HR = 1.01, 95% CI: 0.75-1.36). There was no significant effect modification by race on cardiovascular and kidney outcomes. CONCLUSIONS There were no significant differences in treatment effects of GLP-1 RA or SGLT2i for MACE between Asian and White patients with T2DM. Likewise, no significant differences in treatment effects of SGLT2i on kidney outcomes were found between Asian and White patients.

Abstract
Background A precision medicine approach in type 2 diabetes requires identification of clinical and biological features that are reproducibly associated with differences in clinical outcomes with specific anti-hyperglycaemic therapies. Robust evidence of such treatment effect heterogeneity could support more individualized clinical decisions on optimal type 2 diabetes therapy. Methods We performed a pre-registered systematic review of meta-analysis studies, randomized control trials, and observational studies evaluating clinical and biological features associated with heterogenous treatment effects for SGLT2-inhibitor and GLP1-receptor agonist therapies, considering glycaemic, cardiovascular, and renal outcomes. Results After screening 5,686 studies, we included 101 studies of SGLT2-inhibitors and 75 studies of GLP1-receptor agonists in the final systematic review. The majority of papers had methodological limitations precluding robust assessment of treatment effect heterogeneity. For glycaemic outcomes, most cohorts were observational, with multiple analyses identifying lower renal function as a predictor of lesser glycaemic response with SGLT2-inhibitors and markers of reduced insulin secretion as predictors of lesser response with GLP1-receptor agonists. For cardiovascular and renal outcomes, the majority of included studies were post-hoc analyses of randomized control trials (including meta-analysis studies) which identified limited clinically relevant treatment effect heterogeneity. Conclusions Current evidence on treatment effect heterogeneity for SGLT2-inhibitor and GLP1-receptor agonist therapies is limited, likely reflecting the methodological limitations of published studies. Robust and appropriately powered studies are required to understand type 2 diabetes treatment effect heterogeneity and evaluate the potential for precision medicine to inform future clinical care. Plain language summary This review identifies research that helps understand which clinical and biological factors that are associated with different outcomes for specific type 2 diabetes treatments. This information could help clinical providers and patients make better informed personalized decisions about type 2 diabetes treatments. We focused on two common type 2 diabetes treatments: SGLT2-inhibitors and GLP1-receptor agonists, and three outcomes: blood glucose control, heart disease, and kidney disease. We identified some potential factors that are likely to lessen blood glucose control including lower kidney function for SGLT2-inhibitors and lower insulin secretion for GLP1-receptor agonists. We did not identify clear factors that alter heart and renal disease outcomes for either treatment. Most of the studies had limitations, meaning more research is needed to fully understand the factors that influence treatment outcomes in type 2 diabetes.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Many people with type 2 diabetes progress to end-stage diabetic kidney disease (DKD) despite blockade of the renin-angiotensin system, suggesting the need for innovative treatment options for DKD. To capture the findings of recent studies, we performed an updated systematic review and meta-analysis of the efficacy and safety of sodium glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors combined with standard care involving angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors and/or angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs) on the development and progression of DKD in people with type 2 diabetes compared with standard care alone. METHODS The Cochrane Library, MEDLINE, EMBASE, PubMed and clinical trials registers were systematically searched for randomized controlled trials published before 1 September 2022. Primary outcomes were urine albumin-creatinine ratio (UACR) and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). Secondary outcomes were glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) and systolic blood pressure (SBP). Relative risk was calculated for adverse events. RESULTS Eight studies enrolling 5512 participants were included. In the meta-analysis (n = 1327), SGLT2 inhibitors were associated with a statistically significant reduction in UACR (weighted mean difference [WMD] -105.61 mg/g, 95 % CI -197.25 to -13.98, I2 = 99 %, p = 0.02). There was no statistically significant difference in relation to eGFR (n = 1375; WMD -0.23 mL/min/1.73m2, 95 % CI -4.34 to 3.89, I2 = 94 %, p = 0.91). CONCLUSIONS SGLT2 inhibitors in addition to standard care including ACE inhibitors and/or ARBs significantly reduced albuminuria, HbA1c and SBP when compared to standard care alone, supporting their routine use in people with type 2 diabetes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Fixed-dose combination (FDC) of the sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitor empagliflozin and the dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor linagliptin was approved for type 2 diabetes (T2D) treatment in Japan in 2018. We conducted a post-marketing surveillance study of empagliflozin/linagliptin FDC in routine clinical practice in Japan. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS This one-year, prospective, multicenter, observational study investigated the safety and effectiveness of empagliflozin/linagliptin FDC in Japanese patients with T2D. The primary outcome was incidence of adverse drug reactions (ADRs). RESULTS Among 1146 patients, mean (SD) age was 63.8 (12.8) years and 22.08% were aged ≥75 years. Mean (SD) glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) was 7.66% (1.21); fasting plasma glucose (FPG) was 142.90 mg/dl (43.75). ADRs were experienced by 32 (2.79%) patients (1 serious ADR); ADRs of important identified risk included urinary tract infection (7 patients [0.61%]), hypoglycemia (2 [0.17%]), ketoacidosis (0), genital infection (1 [0.09%]), and volume depletion (1 [0.09%]). Overall mean (SD) change from baseline in body weight, HbA1c, and FPG were -1.08 kg (3.21), -0.39% (1.11), and -7.90 mg/dl (39.12), respectively. CONCLUSIONS Empagliflozin/linagliptin FDC was effective and generally well tolerated in Japanese patients with T2D; no new safety concerns were identified. TRIAL REGISTRATION The trial is registered at ClinicalTrials.gov (CT.gov identifier: NCT03761797) [Figure: see text] [Figure: see text].

Abstract
Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is one of the most serious complications of diabetes. Therefore, delaying and preventing the progression of DN becomes an important goal in the clinical treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus. Recent studies confirm that sodium-glucose cotransporters 2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) have been regarded as effective glucose-lowering drugs with renal protective effect. In this review, we summarize in detail the present knowledge of the effects of SGLT2is on renal outcomes by analyzing the experimental data in preclinical study, the effects of SGLT2is on estimated glomerular flitration rates (eGFRs) and urinary albumin-creatinine ratios (UACRs) from clinical trials and observational studies, and renal events (such as renal death or renal failure requiring renal replacement therapy) in some large prospective cardiovaslucar outcomes trials. The underlying mechanisms for renoprotective activity of SGLT2is have been demondtrated in multiple diabetic and nondiabetic animal models including kidney-specific effects and secondary kidney effects related to amelioration in blood glucose and blood pressure. In conclusion, these promising results show that SGLT2is act beneficially in terms of the kidney for diabetic patients.

Cardiorenal disease management in type 2 diabetes: An expert consensus. Diabetes Metab Syndr 2022; 16:102661. [PMID: 36375366 DOI: 10.1016/j.dsx.2022.102661] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/16/2022] [Revised: 09/28/2022] [Accepted: 10/29/2022] [Indexed: 11/06/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM The interplay between cardiovascular disease (CVD), chronic kidney disease (CKD) and type 2 diabetes (T2D) is well established. We aim at providing an evidence-based expert opinion regarding the prevention and treatment of both heart failure (HF) and renal complications in people with T2D. METHOD ology: The consensus recommendations were developed by subject experts in endocrinology, cardiology, and nephrology. The criteria for consensus were set to statements with ≥80% of agreement among clinicians specialized in endocrinology, cardiology, and nephrology. Key expert opinions were formulated based on scientific evidence and clinical judgment. RESULTS Assessing the risk factors of CVD or CKD in people with diabetes and taking measures to prevent HF or kidney disease are essential. Known CVD or CKD among people with diabetes confers a very high risk for recurrent CVD. Metformin plus lifestyle modification should be the first-line therapy (unless contraindicated) for the management of T2D. Glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) agonists can be preferred in people with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) or with high-risk indicators, along with sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i), whereas SGLT2i are the first choice in HF and CKD. The GLP-1 agonists can be used in people with CKD if SGLT2i are not tolerated. CONCLUSION Current evidence suggests SGLT2i as preferred agents among people with T2D and HF, and for those with T2D and ASCVD. SGLT2i and GLP-1RA also lower CV outcomes in those with diabetes and ASCVD, and the treatment choice should depend on the patient profile.

Abstract
The role of gut-kidney crosstalk in the progression of diabetic nephropathy (DN) is receiving increasing concern. On one hand, the decline in renal function increases circulating uremic toxins and affects the composition and function of gut microbiota. On the other hand, intestinal dysbiosis destroys the epithelial barrier, leading to increased exposure to endotoxins, thereby exacerbating kidney damage by inducing systemic inflammation. Dietary inventions, such as higher fiber intake, prebiotics, probiotics, postbiotics, fecal microbial transplantation (FMT), and engineering bacteria and phages, are potential microbiota-based therapies for DN. Furthermore, novel diabetic agents, such as glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists, dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors, and sodium-dependent glucose transporter-2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors, may affect the progression of DN partly through gut microbiota. In the current review, we mainly summarize the evidence concerning the gut-kidney axis in the advancement of DN and discuss therapies targeting the gut microbiota, expecting to provide new insight into the clinical treatment of DN.

Abstract
The prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus continues to increase in many Asian countries, with possible contributing factors, such as younger-onset disease, diabetes development at lower body mass index, higher visceral fat accumulation and poorer β-cell function, among Asian populations. Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors have been shown to confer favorable effects in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients, such as improved glycemic control, weight and blood pressure reduction, and importantly, cardiorenal benefits. Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors are generally well-tolerated, and have a well-defined safety profile based on evidence from numerous clinical trials and post-marketing pharmacovigilance reporting. To our knowledge, this review is the first to provide a comprehensive coverage of the adverse events of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors, as well as their management and counseling aspects for Asian type 2 diabetes mellitus populations.

SGLT2 inhibitor-empagliflozin treatment ameliorates diabetic retinopathy manifestations and exerts protective effects associated with augmenting branched chain amino acids catabolism and transportation in db/db mice. Biomed Pharmacother 2022; 152:113222. [PMID: 35671581 DOI: 10.1016/j.biopha.2022.113222] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/11/2022] [Revised: 05/26/2022] [Accepted: 05/30/2022] [Indexed: 11/28/2022] Open
Abstract
Empagliflozin (EMPA) is the first sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitor to significantly reduce cardiovascular and kidney complications in type 2 diabetes mellitus. Given this, we speculate that EMPA may have the potential to intervene in diabetic retinopathy (DR), which is another diabetes-specific microvascular complication. Db/db mice were treated with EMPA for different periods to observe the retinas and related mechanisms. EMPA effectively balanced body weight and blood glucose levels, mitigated ocular edema and microaneurysm in db/db mice. EMPA significantly inhibited oxidative stress, apoptosis and recovered tight junction in diabetic retinas. MS/MS analyses showed that EMPA suppressed aberrant branched-chain amino acid (BCAAs) accumulation in db/db retinas, which led to the inhibition of the mammalian target of rapamycin activation, downregulation of inflammation, and angiogenic factors, including TNF-ɑ, IL-6, VCAM-1, and VEGF induced by diabetes. Furthermore, branched-chain α-keto acids (BCKAs), which are catabolites of BCAAs, were increased in diabetic retinas and decreased with EMPA application. Moreover, branched-chain ketoacid dehydrogenase kinase (BCKDK) was enhanced, BCKDHA and BCKDHB were decreased in diabetic retinas. This could be reversed by EMPA treatment, thus promoting BCAAs catabolism to decrease BCAAs and BCKAs accumulation in diabetic retinas. The high levels of BCAAs in the plasma and enhanced L-type amino acid transporter 1 (LAT1) were responsible for the high levels of BCAAs in diabetic retinas, which could be inhibited by EMPA. Overall, EMPA could ameliorate DR manifestations. The normalization of BCAAs catabolism and intake may play a role in this process. This study supports EMPA as a protective drug against DR.

Abstract
CONTEXT Diabetic kidney disease is a major burden among diabetic patients. Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) were shown to reduce renal outcomes in clinical trials and real-world studies. However, head-to-head comparisons with individual classes of glucose-lowering agents warranted further investigation. OBJECTIVE This work aimed to investigate the associations between SGLT2is use vs dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors (DPP4is) use and 4 renal outcomes: end-stage renal disease (ESRD), albuminuria, acute renal failure (ARF), and the rate of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) change using a territory-wide electronic medical database in Hong Kong. METHODS For this retrospective cohort study, the "prevalent new-user" design was adopted to account for previous exposure to study drugs. Propensity score matching was used to balance baseline characteristics. Electronic health data of type 2 diabetes patients using SGLT2is and DPP4is between 2015 and 2018 were collected. RESULTS The matched cohort consisted of 6333 SGLT2is users and 25 332 DPP4is users, with a median follow-up of 3.8 years. Compared to DPP4is, SGLT2is use was associated with lower risks of ESRD (hazard ratio [HR]: 0.51; 95% CI, 0.42-0.62; P < .001) and ARF (HR: 0.59; 95% CI, 0.48-0.73; P < .001), and a slower decline in eGFR. The associations remained statistically significant among patients with or without rapid eGFR decline and patients who added or switched to SGLT2is from DPP4is. The association with albuminuria was inconsistent across analyses. CONCLUSION Compared to DPP4is, SGLT2is use was associated with reduced risks of ESRD and ARF, and a slower eGFR decline in a real-world setting. The associations remained statistically significant in patients with or without preindex rapid eGFR decline.

Abstract
The Asian-Indian phenotype of type 2 diabetes mellitus is uniquely characterized for cardio-metabolic risk. In the context of implementing patient-centric holistic cardio-metabolic risk management as a priority, the choice of various combinations of antidiabetic agents should be individualized. Combined therapy with two classes of antidiabetic agents, namely, dipeptidyl peptidase 4 inhibitors and sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 inhibitors, target several pathophysiological pathways. The wide-ranging clinical outcomes associated with this combination, including improvement of glycemia and adiposity, reduction of metabolic and vascular risk, safety, and simplicity for sustainable compliance, are extremely relevant to the Asian Indian patient population living with T2DM. In this review we describe the available evidence in detail and present a rational practical guidance for the optimum clinical use of this combination in this patient population.

Abstract
AIMS/INTRODUCTION We investigated the utilization of healthcare resources in patients with type 2 diabetes treated with empagliflozin, a sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitor, versus dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors in clinical practice in Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan. MATERIALS AND METHODS We analyzed the Japanese Medical Data Vision database (December 2014-April 2018), the South Korean National Health Information Database, and the Taiwanese National Health Insurance claims database (both May 2016-December 2017). Patients with type 2 diabetes starting empagliflozin, 10 or 25 mg, or a DPP-4 inhibitor were matched 1:1 via propensity scores (PS). We compared inpatient care needs, emergency room (ER) visits, and outpatient visits between the treatment groups using Poisson regression and Cox proportional hazards models, pooled across countries by random-effects meta-analysis. RESULTS We identified 28,712 pairs of PS-matched patients; the mean follow-up was 5.7-6.8 months. Empagliflozin-treated patients had a 27% lower risk of all-cause hospitalization compared with DPP-4 inhibitor-treated patients (rate ratio [RR] 0.73, 95% CI 0.67-0.79), and 23% reduced risk for first hospitalization (hazard ratio 0.77, 95% CI 0.73-0.81). The risk for an ER visit was 12% lower with empagliflozin than with DPP-4 inhibitors (RR 0.88, 95% CI 0.83-0.94) while the risk for outpatient visit was 4% lower (RR 0.96, 95% CI 0.96-0.97). These findings were generally consistent across countries, regardless of baseline cardiovascular disease, and in the subgroup starting empagliflozin with the 10 mg dose. CONCLUSIONS Empagliflozin treatment was associated with lower inpatient care needs and other healthcare resource utilization than DPP-4 inhibitors in routine clinical practice in East Asia in this study.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Empagliflozin, a glucose-lowering drug licensed for type 2 diabetes (T2D), demonstrated tolerability and effectiveness overall in a post-marketing surveillance (PMS) study in Japan. However, the impact of body mass index (BMI) is unclear. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS This was a prespecified sub-analysis of the prospective, 3-year, PMS study of empagliflozin in Japan where the primary endpoint was adverse drug reactions (ADRs). We evaluated results according to BMI. RESULTS We enrolled 7931 T2D patients treated with empagliflozin. Baseline mean age was 58.7 years; 63.01% were male. Baseline BMI was <20 kg/m2 in 2.06% of patients, while 21.28%, 37.35%, and 24.97% had BMI 20-<25, 25-<30 and ≥30 kg/m2, respectively. ADRs occurred in 19 (11.66%), 203 (12.03%), 411 (13.88%), and 295 (14.90%) patients with BMI <20, 20-<25, 25-<30 and ≥30 kg/m2, respectively. Excessive/frequent urination was the most frequent ADR of special interest in all BMI subgroups except 20-<25 kg/m2 (urinary tract infection). Mean change in glycated hemoglobin from baseline was -0.75%, with similar magnitude across BMI subgroups. Body-weight reduction seemed dependent on BMI, with almost no change in the <20 kg/m2 subgroup. CONCLUSIONS Empagliflozin appeared well tolerated and effective in Japanese T2D patients regardless of BMI, although the number of patients with BMI <20 kg/m2 was small in this study.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Empagliflozin, a sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 inhibitor, was licensed for treating type 2 diabetes (T2D) in Japan and elsewhere in recent years. We conducted a post-marketing surveillance study of empagliflozin in Japan. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS This was a 3-year, prospective, multicenter, observational study of the safety and effectiveness of empagliflozin in T2D patients in Japanese clinical practice who had not previously received this medication. The primary endpoint was the incidence of adverse drug reactions (ADRs). RESULTS Of 8145 patients enrolled from 1103 sites, 7931 received ≥1 dose of empagliflozin. Mean age was 58.7 years (10.5% aged ≥75), glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) 8.0%, body mass index 28.1 kg/m2 (<20 kg/m2 in 2.1%); 63.0% were male and most had comorbidities (renal impairment in ~62%). Median treatment duration was 36.5 months. ADRs occurred in 1024 (12.91%) patients overall (serious ADRs in 2.09%) and 120 patients aged ≥75 years (14.46%). ADRs of special interest included hypoglycemia (0.44% of patients), urinary tract infections (1.07%), genital infections (0.66%), volume depletion (0.50%), diabetic ketoacidosis (0%), and lower limb amputation (0.04%). Overall mean change in HbA1c from baseline was -0.75%. CONCLUSIONS Empagliflozin is effective and generally well tolerated in Japanese patients, and ADRs are consistent with its known safety profile.

Abstract
Background Randomized controlled trials have demonstrated the benefits of sodium–glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) in people with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and chronic kidney disease (CKD). However, real-world data on CKD progression and the development of end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) remains scarce. Our aim was to study renal outcomes of people with diabetic kidney disease (DKD) using SGLT2is in a highly prevalent DKD population. Methods Between 2016 and 2019 we recruited T2DM patients in the renal and diabetic clinics in a regional hospital in Singapore. Patients prescribed SGLT2is were compared with those on standard anti-diabetic and renoprotective treatment. The outcome measures were CKD progression [a ≥25% decrease from baseline and worsening of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) categories according to the Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes guidelines] and ESKD (eGFR <15 mL/min/1.73 m2). Results We analysed a total of 4446 subjects; 1598 were on SGLT2is. There was a significant reduction in CKD progression {hazard ratio [HR] 0.60 [95% confidence interval (CI) 0.49–0.74]} with SGLT2is. The HR for eGFR ≥45 mL/min/1.73 m2 and 15–44 mL/min/1.73 m2 was 0.60 (95% CI 0.47–0.76) and 0.43 (95% CI 0.23–0.66), respectively. There was also a reduction in risk for developing ESKD for the entire cohort [HR 0.33 (95% CI 0.17–0.65)] and eGFR 15–44 mL/min/1.73 m2 [HR 0.24 (95% CI 0.09–0.66)]. Compared with canagliflozin and dapagliflozin, empagliflozin showed a sustained risk reduction of renal outcomes across CKD stages 1–4. Conclusions This real-world study demonstrates the benefits of SGLT2is on CKD progression and ESKD. The effect is more pronounced in moderate to advanced CKD patients.

Abstract
Obesity-related glomerulopathy (ORG) and other obesity-associated kidney diseases pose a major challenge to the treating nephrologist. We review the benefits of weight loss and optimal management of ORG and kidney disease in the setting of obesity. Therapeutic strategies in ORG were limited mainly in the past to weight loss through lifestyle interventions and bariatric surgery, antihypertensive treatment, and renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system blockade. Current approaches to obtain the desired weight loss include novel pharmacologic therapies that have been approved for the treatment of diabetes while offering kidney protection, such as sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors and glucagon-like peptide-1-receptor agonists. This review focuses on the nephroprotective role of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system blockade and of these new pharmacologic agents, and on the renal effects of bariatric surgery in chronic kidney disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a leading cause of death globally. Recently, dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors (DPP4i), glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RA) and sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) were approved for treating people with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Although metformin remains the first-line pharmacotherapy for people with type 2 diabetes mellitus, a body of evidence has recently emerged indicating that DPP4i, GLP-1RA and SGLT2i may exert positive effects on patients with known CVD. OBJECTIVES To systematically review the available evidence on the benefits and harms of DPP4i, GLP-1RA, and SGLT2i in people with established CVD, using network meta-analysis. SEARCH METHODS We searched CENTRAL, MEDLINE, Embase, and the Conference Proceedings Citation Index on 16 July 2020. We also searched clinical trials registers on 22 August 2020. We did not restrict by language or publication status. SELECTION CRITERIA We searched for randomised controlled trials (RCTs) investigating DPP4i, GLP-1RA, or SGLT2i that included participants with established CVD. Outcome measures of interest were CVD mortality, fatal and non-fatal myocardial infarction, fatal and non-fatal stroke, all-cause mortality, hospitalisation for heart failure (HF), and safety outcomes. DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS Three review authors independently screened the results of searches to identify eligible studies and extracted study data. We used the GRADE approach to assess the certainty of the evidence. We conducted standard pairwise meta-analyses and network meta-analyses by pooling studies that we assessed to be of substantial homogeneity; subgroup and sensitivity analyses were also pursued to explore how study characteristics and potential effect modifiers could affect the robustness of our review findings. We analysed study data using the odds ratios (ORs) and log odds ratios (LORs) with their respective 95% confidence intervals (CIs) and credible intervals (Crls), where appropriate. We also performed narrative synthesis for included studies that were of substantial heterogeneity and that did not report quantitative data in a usable format, in order to discuss their individual findings and relevance to our review scope. MAIN RESULTS We included 31 studies (287 records), of which we pooled data from 20 studies (129,465 participants) for our meta-analysis. The majority of the included studies were at low risk of bias, using Cochrane's tool for assessing risk of bias. Among the 20 pooled studies, six investigated DPP4i, seven studied GLP-1RA, and the remaining seven trials evaluated SGLT2i. All outcome data described below were reported at the longest follow-up duration. 1. DPP4i versus placebo Our review suggests that DPP4i do not reduce any risk of efficacy outcomes: CVD mortality (OR 1.00, 95% CI 0.91 to 1.09; high-certainty evidence), myocardial infarction (OR 0.97, 95% CI 0.88 to 1.08; high-certainty evidence), stroke (OR 1.00, 95% CI 0.87 to 1.14; high-certainty evidence), and all-cause mortality (OR 1.03, 95% CI 0.96 to 1.11; high-certainty evidence). DPP4i probably do not reduce hospitalisation for HF (OR 0.99, 95% CI 0.80 to 1.23; moderate-certainty evidence). DPP4i may not increase the likelihood of worsening renal function (OR 1.08, 95% CI 0.88 to 1.33; low-certainty evidence) and probably do not increase the risk of bone fracture (OR 1.00, 95% CI 0.83 to 1.19; moderate-certainty evidence) or hypoglycaemia (OR 1.11, 95% CI 0.95 to 1.29; moderate-certainty evidence). They are likely to increase the risk of pancreatitis (OR 1.63, 95% CI 1.12 to 2.37; moderate-certainty evidence). 2. GLP-1RA versus placebo Our findings indicate that GLP-1RA reduce the risk of CV mortality (OR 0.87, 95% CI 0.79 to 0.95; high-certainty evidence), all-cause mortality (OR 0.88, 95% CI 0.82 to 0.95; high-certainty evidence), and stroke (OR 0.87, 95% CI 0.77 to 0.98; high-certainty evidence). GLP-1RA probably do not reduce the risk of myocardial infarction (OR 0.89, 95% CI 0.78 to 1.01; moderate-certainty evidence), and hospitalisation for HF (OR 0.95, 95% CI 0.85 to 1.06; high-certainty evidence). GLP-1RA may reduce the risk of worsening renal function (OR 0.61, 95% CI 0.44 to 0.84; low-certainty evidence), but may have no impact on pancreatitis (OR 0.96, 95% CI 0.68 to 1.35; low-certainty evidence). We are uncertain about the effect of GLP-1RA on hypoglycaemia and bone fractures. 3. SGLT2i versus placebo This review shows that SGLT2i probably reduce the risk of CV mortality (OR 0.82, 95% CI 0.70 to 0.95; moderate-certainty evidence), all-cause mortality (OR 0.84, 95% CI 0.74 to 0.96; moderate-certainty evidence), and reduce the risk of HF hospitalisation (OR 0.65, 95% CI 0.59 to 0.71; high-certainty evidence); they do not reduce the risk of myocardial infarction (OR 0.97, 95% CI 0.84 to 1.12; high-certainty evidence) and probably do not reduce the risk of stroke (OR 1.12, 95% CI 0.92 to 1.36; moderate-certainty evidence). In terms of treatment safety, SGLT2i probably reduce the incidence of worsening renal function (OR 0.59, 95% CI 0.43 to 0.82; moderate-certainty evidence), and probably have no effect on hypoglycaemia (OR 0.90, 95% CI 0.75 to 1.07; moderate-certainty evidence) or bone fracture (OR 1.02, 95% CI 0.88 to 1.18; high-certainty evidence), and may have no impact on pancreatitis (OR 0.85, 95% CI 0.39 to 1.86; low-certainty evidence). 4. Network meta-analysis Because we failed to identify direct comparisons between each class of the agents, findings from our network meta-analysis provided limited novel insights. Almost all findings from our network meta-analysis agree with those from the standard meta-analysis. GLP-1RA may not reduce the risk of stroke compared with placebo (OR 0.87, 95% CrI 0.75 to 1.0; moderate-certainty evidence), which showed similar odds estimates and wider 95% Crl compared with standard pairwise meta-analysis. Indirect estimates also supported comparison across all three classes. SGLT2i was ranked the best for CVD and all-cause mortality. AUTHORS' CONCLUSIONS Findings from both standard and network meta-analyses of moderate- to high-certainty evidence suggest that GLP-1RA and SGLT2i are likely to reduce the risk of CVD mortality and all-cause mortality in people with established CVD; high-certainty evidence demonstrates that treatment with SGLT2i reduce the risk of hospitalisation for HF, while moderate-certainty evidence likely supports the use of GLP-1RA to reduce fatal and non-fatal stroke. Future studies conducted in the non-diabetic CVD population will reveal the mechanisms behind how these agents improve clinical outcomes irrespective of their glucose-lowering effects.

Abstract
Chronic kidney disease is a prevalent complication of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Sodium-glucose cotransporter type 2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) have a unique mode of action targeting the kidney. As their glucose-lowering potency declines with the reduction in estimated glomerular filtration rate, their clinical use in patients with T2DM with chronic kidney disease has been submitted to restriction. However, recent observations demonstrated that SGLT2is reduce the progression of renal impairment in patients with mild-to-moderate chronic kidney disease, with or without albuminuria. Furthermore, SGLT2is reduce the incidence of cardiovascular events in patients with T2DM at high cardiovascular risk, independently of baseline estimated glomerular filtration rate. Thus, recent guidelines recommend the prescription of SGLT2is in patients with T2DM with mild-to-moderate chronic kidney disease defined by an estimated glomerular filtration rate between ≥ 30 and < 90 mL/min/1.73 m2 and/or albuminuria. The present comprehensive review describes the pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic properties of SGLT2is commercialised worldwide and in Japan in patients with T2DM with mild, moderate and severe chronic kidney disease. Drug exposure increases when the estimated glomerular filtration rate declines but without a clear-cut relationship with the severity of chronic kidney disease and in a rather moderate amplitude that most often does not require a dose reduction in the presence of mild-to-moderate chronic kidney disease. The urinary glucose excretion steadily declines with the reduction in estimated glomerular filtration rate. This may explain a lower effect on glucose control, yet the positive effects on body weight and blood pressure still remain. The efficacy and safety of these SGLT2is are analysed among patients with stages 3a and 3b chronic kidney disease in placebo-controlled randomised clinical trials, with almost similar results in Asian and non-Asian individuals with T2DM. In summary, there is no reason not to prescribe SGLT2is in patients with T2DM with mild-to-moderate chronic kidney disease, especially if the aim is to benefit from cardiovascular and/or renal protection.

Abstract
Background Empagliflozin, a sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 (SGLT-2) inhibitor, yielded significant beneficiaries in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). It is particularly benefited the diabetic subjects with heart conditions. Aims We aimed to obtain a real-world data about the effects of empagliflozin add-on treatment on metabolic parameters, cardiovascular risk factors, and anthropometric measures in patients with T2DM. Methods Type 2 diabetic patients with established coronary heart disease whom empagliflozin added to their treatment were enrolled in the study. Anthropometric measures, clinical and laboratory data, were obtained before and at the 6th month of the empagliflozin treatment. All data before and at the 6th month were compared. Results Body weight (p < 0.001), body mass index (p < 0.001), waist (p < 0.001) and hip (p < 0.001) circumferences, systolic blood pressure (p = 0.006), heart rate (p = 0.01), LDL cholesterol (p = 0.01), fasting plasma glucose (p < 0.001), and HbA1c (p < 0.001) levels were significantly reduced on 6th month of empagliflozin treatment compared to the baseline values. Estimated GFR (p = 0.66), serum creatinine (p = 0.8), uric acid (p = 0.40), total cholesterol (p = 0.053), triglyceride (p = 0.057), and HDL (p = 0.09) levels were not significantly changed. Conclusions We suggest that empagliflozin treatment may improve anthropometric measures, metabolic parameters, and blood pressure and does not cause deterioration in kidney functions in type 2 diabetic patients with established coronary heart disease.

Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is not only one of the main complications of diabetes, but also the leading cause of the end-stage renal disease (ESRD). The occurrence and development of DKD have always been a serious clinical problem that leads to the increase of morbidity and mortality and the severe damage to the quality of life of human beings. Controlling blood glucose, blood pressure, blood lipids, and improving lifestyle can help slow the progress of DKD. In recent years, with the extensive research on the pathological mechanism and molecular mechanism of DKD, there are more and more new drugs based on this, such as new hypoglycemic drugs sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors, glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) inhibitors, and dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors with good efficacy in clinical treatment. Besides, there are some newly developed drugs, including protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitors, advanced glycation end product (AGE) inhibitors, aldosterone receptor inhibitors, endothelin receptor (ETR) inhibitors, transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) inhibitors, Rho kinase (ROCK) inhibitors and so on, which show positive effects in animal or clinical trials and bring hope for the treatment of DKD. In this review, we sort out the progress in the treatment of DKD in recent years, the research status of some emerging drugs, and the potential drugs for the treatment of DKD in the future, hoping to provide some directions for clinical treatment of DKD.

Cardiovascular and mortality benefits of sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 inhibitors in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus: CVD-Real Catalonia. Cardiovasc Diabetol 2021; 20:139. [PMID: 34243779 PMCID: PMC8272340 DOI: 10.1186/s12933-021-01323-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/10/2021] [Accepted: 06/23/2021] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Evidence from prospective cardiovascular (CV) outcome trials in type 2 diabetes (T2DM) patients supports the use of sodium–glucose co-transporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) to reduce the risk of CV events. In this study, we compared the risk of several CV outcomes between new users of SGLT2i and other glucose-lowering drugs (oGLDs) in Catalonia, Spain. Methods CVD-REAL Catalonia was a retrospective cohort study using real-world data routinely collected between 2013 and 2016. The cohorts of new users of SGLT2i and oGLDs were matched by propensity score on a 1:1 ratio. We compared the incidence rates and hazard ratio (HR) for all-cause death, hospitalization for heart failure, chronic kidney disease, and modified major adverse CV event (MACE; all-cause mortality, myocardial infarction, or stroke). Results After propensity score matching, 12,917 new users were included in each group. About 27% of users had a previous history of CV disease. In the SGLT2i group, the exposure time was 60% for dapagliflozin, 26% for empagliflozin and 14% for canagliflozin. The use of SGLT2i was associated with a lower risk of heart failure (HR: 0.59; 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.47–0.74; p < 0.001), all-cause death (HR = 0.41; 95% CI 0.31–0.54; p < 0.001), all-cause death or heart failure (HR = 0.55; 95% CI 0.47–0.63; p < 0.001), modified MACE (HR = 0.62; 95% CI 0.52–0.74; p < 0.001), and chronic kidney disease (HR = 0.66; 95% CI 0.54–0.80; p < 0.001). Conclusions In this large, retrospective observational study of patients with T2DM from a Catalonia, initiation of SGLT-2i was associated with lower risk of mortality, as well as heart failure and CKD.

Abstract
Hypertonie und Diabetes treten oft gemeinsam auf und erhöhen die kardiovaskuläre Mortalität. Beide Erkrankungen sind bei COVID-19-Patienten (COVID-19: „coronavirus disease 2019“) mit schweren Verläufen gehäuft anzutreffen. Hinsichtlich der Kausalität für COVID-19 ist die Datenlage widersprüchlich. Sicher ist ein Surrogateffekt, da meiste ältere COVID-19-Patienten einen schweren Verlauf aufgrund der Vorschäden aufweisen. Hemmer des Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosteron-Systems (RAAS-Blocker) erhöhen nicht die Wahrscheinlichkeit der positiven SARS-CoV-2-Testung (SARS-CoV-2: „severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2“). Sie haben keinen Einfluss auf die Schwere des Verlaufs und die Mortalität und sollten daher unter COVID-19 nicht pausiert/abgesetzt werden. Die renale Denervierung erfreut sich einer Renaissance, nachdem sich die Studiendesigns und Technologien stark weiterentwickelt haben. Bei den SGLT-2-Hemmern (SGLT-2: „sodium glucose linked transporter 2“) ist der Wissenszuwachs enorm. In den ersten beiden großen randomisierten kontrollierten Studien mit primären renalen Endpunkten verzögerten sie die Progression der chronischen Niereninsuffizienz (CKD) bis zum Dialysebeginn deutlich um zusätzliche ca. 12–13 Jahre. Sie sind prinzipiell bei Typ‑2- sowie Typ-1-Diabetes und auch bei herzinsuffizienten Patienten mit und ohne Diabetes einsetzbar und reduzieren den systolischen Blutdruck. Der nichtsteroidale Mineralokortikoidrezeptorantagonist (MRA) Finerenon wirkt bei Typ‑2-Diabetes reno- und kardioprotektiv bezüglich kardiovaskulärer Mortalität und Niereninsuffizienz. Wie bei den klassischen MRA kann es auch hier zur Hyperkaliämie in höheren CKD-Bereichen kommen. Größere Vergleichsstudien zu den klassischen MRA liegen nicht vor. Die Zulassung in Deutschland steht noch aus.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The cardiovascular and kidney safety of glucose-lowering drugs is a key concern in type 2 diabetes (T2D). We evaluated cardiorenal outcomes with glucose-lowering drugs in Asian patients, who comprise over half of T2D cases globally. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS A rapid evidence assessment was conducted for phase III or IV, double-blind, randomized clinical trials of glucose-lowering drugs reporting cardiovascular or kidney outcomes for Asian T2D patients (Embase, Medline, Cochrane Library databases: 1 January 2008-14 June 2020). RESULTS Fifty-four publications reported exploratory data for Asians from 18 trials of dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors, sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors, glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists, and insulin analogs. SGLT2 inhibitors and several GLP-1 receptor agonists were associated with reduced cardiovascular risk in Asian T2D patients, while DPP-4 inhibitors exhibited cardiovascular safety. SGLT2 inhibitors also appeared to reduce renal risk; however, kidney outcomes were lacking for DPP-4 inhibitors other than linagliptin and GLP-1 receptor agonists in Asian patients. Insulin data were inconclusive as the only trial conducted used different types of insulin as both treatment and comparator. CONCLUSIONS Cardiorenal outcomes with glucose-lowering drugs in Asian T2D patients were similar to outcomes in the overall multinational cohorts of these trials. DPP-4 inhibitors appear to demonstrate cardiovascular safety in Asians, while SGLT2 inhibitors and some GLP-1 receptor agonists may reduce cardiorenal and cardiovascular risk, respectively.

Abstract
Aims The safety and efficacy, particularly, the factors associated with the renal prognosis, were assessed over 12 months after the initiation of luseogliflozin therapy in Japanese patients with type 2 diabetes and renal impairment. Methods In total, 238 patients treated with luseogliflozin (2.5 mg, once daily) were studied as the safety analysis set. Two hundred and two subjects whose medication was continued over 12 months were investigated as the full analysis set. The subjects were divided into 3 groups based on the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR): high eGFR (n = 49), normal eGFR (n = 116) and low eGFR (n = 37) groups. Results The body weight, systolic blood pressure, HbA1c and urinary protein excretion gradually decreased from baseline in all eGFR groups. While the eGFR was significantly reduced from baseline in the high and normal eGFR groups, the eGFR did not significantly differ over time in the low eGFR group. There was no marked difference in the frequency of adverse events that were specific for SGLT2 inhibitors among the 3 groups in the safety analysis set. Conclusions Luseogliflozin can preserve the renal function in the medium term in patients with type 2 diabetes and renal impairment without an increase in specific adverse events.

Abstract
Initially developed as glucose-lowering drugs, sodium-glucose co-transporter type 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) have demonstrated to be effective agents for the risk reduction of cardiovascular (CV) events in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Subsequently, data has emerged showing a significant CV benefit in patients treated with SGLT2i regardless of diabetes status. Renal protection has been initially evaluated in CV randomized trials only as secondary endpoints; nonetheless, the positive results gained have rapidly led to the evaluation of nephroprotection as primary outcome in the CREDENCE trial. Different renal and vascular mechanisms can account for the CV and renal benefits enlightened in recent literature. As clinical guidelines rapidly evolve and the role of SGLT2i appears to become pivotal for CV, T2DM, and kidney disease management, in this review, we analyze the renal effects of SGLT2, the benefits derived from its inhibition, and how this may result in the multiple CV and renal benefits evidenced in recent clinical trials.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study was designed to evaluate the efficiency and safety of combination therapy with SGLT2 inhibitors and RAS blockers, such as ACEI/ARB, in patients with T2DM. METHODS We searched PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science and Cochrane Library from their inception to May 2020. Two authors independently performed study selection, risk of bias assessment and data extraction. The quality and risk of bias were assessed by the Cochrane Risk of Bias Tool. Statistical heterogeneity was qualified by the I-squared statistics. RESULTS Seven studies including 1757 patients were analyzed. Compared with ACEI/ARB alone, combination therapy with SGLT2 inhibitors and ACEI/ARB produced reduction in SBP (WMD -3.84 mmHg), DBP (WMD -1.06 mmHg), 24 h ambulatory SBP (WMD -4.59 mmHg), 24 h ambulatory DBP (WMD -2.08 mmHg), UACR(WMD -29.70%), eGFR (WMD -3.46 mL/min per 1·73 m2), HbA1c (SMD -0.48), FPG (SMD -0.28), uric acid (SMD -0.35), and body weight (SMD -0.29). The risk of hypoglycemia with combination therapy was higher than the control group (RR 1.37). As for the risk of total AEs, genital infection and urinary tract infection, no significant difference was revealed. CONCLUSION Compared with ACEI/ARB alone, the combination therapy with SGLT2 inhibitors and ACEI/ARB in T2DM was effective and well-tolerated, and could achieve additional effects, including better control of blood pressure, improvement of renal outcomes, alleviation of long-term renal function, and decrease of blood glucose and body weight. The combination therapy showed an increased risk of hypoglycemia.

Abstract
The Asian Pacific Society of Cardiology convened a consensus statement panel for optimising cardiovascular (CV) outcomes in type 2 diabetes, and reviewed the current literature. Relevant articles were appraised using the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development and Evaluation system, and consensus statements were developed in two meetings and were confirmed through online voting. The consensus statements indicated that lifestyle interventions must be emphasised for patients with prediabetes, and optimal glucose control should be encouraged when possible. Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) are recommended for patients with chronic kidney disease with adequate renal function, and for patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction. In addition to SGLT2i, glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists are recommended for patients at high risk of CV events. A blood pressure target below 140/90 mmHg is generally recommended for patients with type 2 diabetes. Antiplatelet therapy is recommended for secondary prevention in patients with atherosclerotic CV disease.

[PMID: 33155749 PMCID: PMC7839543 DOI: 10.1111/dom.14251] [Citation(s) in RCA: 19] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/29/2020] [Revised: 10/17/2020] [Accepted: 11/01/2020] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
Early onset of type 2 diabetes and a high prevalence of co-morbidities predispose the Asian population to a high risk for, and rapid progression of, diabetic kidney disease (DKD). Apart from renin-angiotensin system inhibitors, sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors have been shown to delay renal disease progression in patients with DKD. In this review article, we consolidate the existing literature on SGLT-2 inhibitor use in Asian patients with DKD to establish contemporary guidance for clinicians. We extensively reviewed recommendations from international and regional guidelines, data from studies on Asian patients with DKD, global trials (DAPA-CKD, CREDENCE and DELIGHT) and cardiovascular outcomes trials. In patients with DKD, SGLT-2 inhibitor therapy significantly reduced albuminuria and the risk of hard renal outcomes (defined as the onset of end-stage kidney disease, substantial decline in renal function from baseline and renal death), cardiovascular outcomes and hospitalization for heart failure. In all the cardiovascular and renal outcomes trials, there was an initial decline in the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), which was followed by a slowing in the decline of renal function compared with that seen with placebo. Despite an attenuation in glucose-lowering efficacy in patients with low eGFR, there were sustained reductions in body weight and blood pressure, and an increase in haematocrit. Based on the available evidence, we conclude that SGLT-2 inhibitors represent an evidence-based therapeutic option for delaying the progression of renal disease in Asian patients with DKD and preserving renal function in patients at high risk of kidney disease.

Abstract
Aim: Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) provide renal protection in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The aim of this study was to elucidate the renal effects of long-term use of six types of SGLT2is in Japanese patients with T2DM and chronic kidney disease (CKD). Materials and Methods: The Kanagawa Physicians Association maintains a registry of patients who visit their 31 clinics. We retrieved clinical data of patients with T2DM and CKD who were prescribed with SGLT2is for >1 year. Results: A total of 763 patients with a median treatment duration of 33 months were included. The logarithmic value of urine albumin-creatinine ratio (LNACR) decreased significantly from 1.60 ± 0.65 to 1.51 ± 0.67. The multiple linear regression analysis revealed that the LNACR at the initiation of treatment, change in (Δ) diastolic blood pressure, and Δ hemoglobin A1c were independently correlated with ΔLNACR (P < 0.001). The decrease in the LNACR was significantly smaller in the patients with estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) [mL/(min ·1.73 m2)] of <60 (P < 0.05). The eGFR decreased from 77.4 ± 22.3 to 72.7 ± 22.5 mL/(min ·1.73 m2) (P < 0.001). The multiple linear regression analysis showed that the LNACR at the initiation of treatment, Δbody weight at the previous survey, ΔeGFR at the previous survey, and the eGFR at the initiation of treatment correlated independently with ΔeGFR during the maintenance period (P < 0.001). Greater changes in the eGFR during the maintenance period were observed in the patients with macroalbuminuria or eGFR of <60 (P < 0.01). Conclusions: The study confirmed that the long-term use of six types of SGLT2i improved the albumin-creatinine ratio (ACR), although the eGFR gradually decreased during the treatment. The change in the ACR was significantly smaller in the patients with eGFR of <60 mL/(min ·1.73 m2) than in those with eGFR of >60 mL/(min ·1.73 m2). However, this was a retrospective observational study; further studies are needed to formulate final conclusions.

Abstract
Aim To evaluate the effectiveness of empagliflozin in clinical practice in East Asia in the Empagliflozin Comparative Effectiveness and Safety (EMPRISE) East Asia study. Materials and methods Data were obtained from the Medical Data Vision database (Japan), National Health Insurance Service database (South Korea) and National Health Insurance database (Taiwan). Patients aged ≥ 18 years with type 2 diabetes initiating empagliflozin or a dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitor were 1:1 propensity score (PS) matched into sequentially built cohorts of new users naïve to both drug classes. This design reduces confounding due to switching treatments, time lag and immortal time biases. Outcomes included hospitalization for heart failure (HHF), end-stage renal disease (ESRD) and all-cause mortality. Hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% CIs were estimated using Cox proportional models, controlling for > 130 baseline characteristics in each data source and pooled by random-effects meta-analysis. Results Overall, 28 712 pairs of PS-matched patients were identified with mean follow-up of 5.7-6.8 months. Compared with DPP-4 inhibitors, the risk of HHF was reduced by 18% and all-cause mortality was reduced by 36% with empagliflozin (HR 0.82; 95% CI 0.71-0.94, and HR 0.64; 95% CI 0.50-0.81, respectively). Reductions were consistent across countries, and in patients with and without baseline cardiovascular disease. ESRD was also significantly reduced with empagliflozin versus DPP-4 inhibitors (HR 0.37; 95% CI 0.24-0.58). Conclusions Empagliflozin treatment was associated with reduced risk for HHF, all-cause mortality and ESRD compared with DPP-4 inhibitors in routine clinical practice in Japan, South Korea and Taiwan.

Abstract
Background This study aims to discuss, summarize and compare the renal outcomes associated with non-insulin antidiabetic (AD) pharmacotherapy prescribed for patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Methods A systematic search using predefined search terms in three scholarly databases, ScienceDirect, Google Scholar, and PubMed, was conducted. Original research articles published in the English language between 2012 and 2020 that reported renal outcomes associated with the use of non-insulin AD pharmacotherapy were eligible for inclusion. Review articles, meta-analysis studies, and conference proceedings were excluded. A study-specific data extraction form was designed to extract the author’s name, country, publication year, study design, study population, objectives, key findings, and conclusions. A narrative review of the key findings that focused on renal outcomes and renal safety issues was conducted. Results Of the 18,872 results identified through the initial search, a total of 32 articles were included in this review. Of these, 18 of the included articles reported the renal outcomes of newer antidiabetic medications, eg, SGLT2 inhibitors and GLP-1 agonists. Eight studies focussed on the well-established antidiabetic medications, eg, metformin and sulphonylureas. The review reported three main types of the clinical impact of the prescribed AD on the renal outcomes: “renoprotective effects”, “no additional risk” and “associated with a decline in renal parameters”. Seventeen studies reported the renoprotective effects of AD, including SGLT2i studies (n=8), GLP1 studies (n=6), and DPP4i studies (n=3). The reported renoprotective effects included slowing down the GFR decline, improving albuminuria, and reducing renal adverse events. The “no additional risk” impact was reported in eight studies, including DPP4i studies (n=3), two SGLT2i studies (n=2), metformin studies (n=2), and one study involving pioglitazone. Furthermore, seven studies highlighted the “associated with a decline in renal parameters” effect. Of these, three involved SGLT2i, two with metformin, and one for each DPP4i and sulphonylurea. Conclusion More than half of the studies included in this review supported the renoprotective effects associated with the use of AD medications, particularly GLP-1A, SGLT2i, and some of the DPP4i. Further studies involving patients with various stages of chronic kidney disease (CKD) are required to compare AD medications’ renal effects, particularly the newer agents.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors are a class of oral anti-hyperglycemic agents that have been available on the market in Japan since 2014. Although safety information has accumulated alongside the clinical use, the warnings issued by each country based on adverse events associated with the drug are different and examination of the safety of the drug is insufficient. OBJECTIVE This study examined the safety of SGLT2 inhibitors by using a Japanese spontaneous reporting database and focusing on the cautions issued in each country and the disparities within existing research into the occurrence of the adverse events of acute renal failure (ARF), ketoacidosis, and urogenital tract infections (UTIs). PATIENTS AND METHODS We analyzed data recorded on the Japanese Adverse Drug Event Report database (JADER) between April 2014 and February 2019. We calculated the reporting odds ratio (ROR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) with sex and age as adjustment factors. RESULTS JADER contained 366,501 cases with the adverse events of interest; 4322 involved SGLT2 inhibitors. The ROR for SGLT2 inhibitors was calculated as 1.0 (95% CI 0.9-1.2) for ARF, 72.2 (95% CI 59.3-87.8) for ketoacidosis, and 14.0 (95% CI 11.0-17.8) for UTIs. Analysis of only subjects receiving treatment for diabetes showed a similar trend. CONCLUSION The results suggested a correlation between SGLT2 inhibitors and the onset of ketoacidosis and UTIs, but not between SGLT2 inhibitors and ARF. Further verification of the safety of SGLT2 inhibitors, through continued risk assessments and large-scale clinical studies, are necessary.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of the present study was to assess the bioequivalence of a generic empagliflozin tablet versus a brand-named empagliflozin tablet (Jardiance®) and evaluate the food effects on the pharmacokinetics (PK) of empagliflozin in healthy Chinese subjects. METHODS Forty-eight healthy volunteers were included in this randomized, open-label, crossover, two-period study (fasting: n = 24, fed: n = 24). A single dose of 25-mg generic (or test) or brand-named (or reference) empagliflozin was administered to each subject in a randomized sequence. Blood samples were collected at the baseline and during the 72 h post-dose, and plasma empagliflozin concentrations were determined by high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS). Pharmacokinetic parameters were analyzed with non-compartmental methods. Safety was monitored. RESULTS The major PK parameters including C max, AUC0- t , and AUC0-∞ were similar between the generic and brand-named tablets under fasting and fed conditions (all p > .05). The 90% confidence intervals of the test/reference ratios of log-transformed C max, AUC0- t , and AUC0-∞ were 94.90-106.70%, 100.62-106.99%, and 100.64-106.85%, respectively, under fasting condition, and 94.21-104.91%, 97.31-101.79%, and 97.32-101.83%, respectively, under fed condition. High-fat food did not affect C max, AUC0- t , AUC0-∞, or T max of empagliflozin (all p > .05). There was no serious adverse event during the study period. CONCLUSION The generic formulation of empagliflozin tablet is bioequivalent to the brand-named product in healthy Chinese volunteers, and well tolerated. High-fat food had no effects on the PK of empagliflozin in healthy Chinese volunteers.

Abstract
In a healthy person, the kidney filters nearly 200 g of glucose per day, almost all of which is reabsorbed. The primary transporter responsible for renal glucose reabsorption is sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT2). Based on the impact of SGLT2 to prevent renal glucose wasting, SGLT2 inhibitors have been developed to treat diabetes and are the newest class of glucose-lowering agents approved in the United States. By inhibiting glucose reabsorption in the proximal tubule, these agents promote glycosuria, thereby reducing blood glucose concentrations and often resulting in modest weight loss. Recent work in humans and rodents has demonstrated that the clinical utility of these agents may not be limited to diabetes management: SGLT2 inhibitors have also shown therapeutic promise in improving outcomes in heart failure, atrial fibrillation, and, in preclinical studies, certain cancers. Unfortunately, these benefits are not without risk: SGLT2 inhibitors predispose to euglycemic ketoacidosis in those with type 2 diabetes and, largely for this reason, are not approved to treat type 1 diabetes. The mechanism for each of the beneficial and harmful effects of SGLT2 inhibitors-with the exception of their effect to lower plasma glucose concentrations-is an area of active investigation. In this review, we discuss the mechanisms by which these drugs cause euglycemic ketoacidosis and hyperglucagonemia and stimulate hepatic gluconeogenesis as well as their beneficial effects in cardiovascular disease and cancer. In so doing, we aim to highlight the crucial role for selecting patients for SGLT2 inhibitor therapy and highlight several crucial questions that remain unanswered.
