Clinical relevance of sodium/glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors has been rapidly evolving across several therapy areas, apart from type 2 diabetes mellitus. While some of these developments are based on recognized scientific explanations, unexpected study findings have also shaped much of our present understanding. As the role of these agents evolves in various facets of cardiology, nephrology, hepatology and endocrinology, their optimum clinical value propositions should be realized in line with the principles of personalized medicine. An updated pharmaco-ergonomic qualification tool, based on the present evidence with these agents, would be a step in this direction. This review describes the present evidence on diverse pharmacological and therapeutic aspects for various SGLT2 inhibitors, as an attempt to provide useful guidance for optimum application in clinical practice.

Background: Nephrology has seen an uptake in transition to remote care delivery. The impact of telenephrology care on chronic kidney disease (CKD) progression is not well defined.

Methods: We analyzed data from patients naturally selected for telenephrology versus standard, in-person visits.

Aims: Insulin therapy is a cornerstone in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) management, but its use is associated with several barriers, including hypoglycaemia, fear of injections and high costs. We compared the risk of insulin initiation and other treatment intensification between patients with T2DM newly treated with a sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitor (SGLT2i) versus those newly treated with a dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor (DPP4i).

Materials And Methods: This Japanese retrospective cohort study was conducted between 1 January 2015 and 31 March 2023 using the JMDC Claims Database.

Department of Endocrinology and Metabolism, Institute of Medicine, University of Tsukuba.

Diabetes mellitus, particularly type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), is a pervasive chronic disease that affects millions of people worldwide. It predisposes individuals to a range of severe microvascular and macrovascular complications, which drastically impact the patient's quality of life and increase mortality rates owing to various comorbidities. This extensive review explores the intricate pathophysiology underlying diabetic complications, focusing on key mechanisms, such as atherosclerosis, insulin resistance, chronic inflammation, and endothelial dysfunction.
