Background: Post-transplant diabetes mellitus (PTDM) is a specific subtype of diabetes with an uncertain impact on mortality and morbidity in post-transplant patients. Diabetic retinopathy is the most common microvascular complication of diabetes mellitus, but the long-term clinical progression in PTDM is unknown. New technologies are being used to assess pre-clinical signs of retinal changes, such as swept-source optical coherence tomography (OCT) and OCT-angiography.

We aim to evaluate the association between SGLT2 inhibitors and the risk of cancer outcomes.
Methods: We searched PubMed, Embase and CENTRAL up to June 20th, 2022, for randomized controlled trials of SGLT2 inhibitors in adults, with a minimum follow-up of 48 weeks.
Introduction: New antihyperglycemic medications have been proven to have cardiovascular (CV) and renal benefits in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM); however, an evidence-based decision tree in specific clinical scenarios is lacking.
Materials And Methods: Systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs), with trial sequential analysis (TSA). Randomized controlled trial inclusion criteria were patients with T2DM from 1 of these subgroups: elderly, obese, previous atherosclerotic CV disease (ASCVD), previous coronary heart disease (CHD), previous heart failure (HF), or previous chronic kidney disease (CKD).
Objective: To assesses microvascular complications in renal transplant recipients with posttransplant diabetes mellitus (PTDM).
Research Design And Methods: In this observational study, patients with ≥5 years of PTDM were included from a cohort of 895 kidney recipients transplanted from 2000 through 2011. Diabetic retinopathy was evaluated by fundus photographs and optical coherence tomography (OCT).
