Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors are commonly prescribed in diabetes mellitus and increasingly for cardiorenal protection. They carry the risk of euglycaemic diabetic ketoacidosis (eDKA). Guidelines around the perioperative handling of these medications are limited and some evidence suggests that withholding them can lead to more surgical complications and poorer glycaemic control.

To date, there are limited studies describing the use of glucose-lowering medications (GLMs) in adult kidney transplant recipients (KTRs), and the uptake of sodium glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) and glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP1RAs). Thus, we aimed to evaluate the use of GLMs, including SGLT2i and GLP1RA, among adult KTRs with type 2 diabetes (T2D). This is an ecologic study of adult KTR with T2D.

This narrative review examines the dynamic interplay between carbohydrate intake and diabetes medications, highlighting their combined molecular and clinical effects on glycemic control. Carbohydrates, a primary energy source, significantly influence postprandial glucose regulation and necessitate careful coordination with pharmacological therapies, including insulin, metformin, glucagon-like peptide (GLP-1) receptor agonists, and sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors. Low-glycemic-index (GI) foods enhance insulin sensitivity, stabilize glycemic variability, and optimize medication efficacy, while high-GI foods exacerbate glycemic excursions and insulin resistance.

Sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i), glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP1a), and non-steroidal mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (ns-MRA) are promising treatments for chronic kidney disease. This umbrella review of network meta-analyses evaluated their effects on cardiovascular outcomes, kidney disease progression, and adverse events, using the TOPSIS method to identify the optimal intervention based on P-scores. A total of 19 network meta-analyses and 44 randomized controlled trials involving 86,150 chronic kidney disease patients were included.

Objectives: This study aimed to analyze the outcomes, outcome domains, and prevalence of the use of clinical outcome endpoints (COE) in clinical trials on sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors for chronic heart failure (CHF) registered on ClinicalTrials.gov and compare them to COE for cardiovascular trials.
Study Design And Setting: We conducted a cross-sectional methodological study.
