Results of our meta-analysis revealed that GLP-1 RA treatment decreases urinary albumin excretion and albumin to creatinine ratio but it did not cause significant changes in creatinine levels and glomerular filtration rate (British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology)

Glomerular resistances predict long-term GFR decline in type 2 diabetic patients without overt nephropathy: a longitudinal subgroup analysis of the DEMAND trial
These findings could be explained by glomerular hypoperfusion and chronic ischemic injury related to pre-glomerular arteriolar narrowing (Acta Diabetologica)
Progressive Decline in Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate in Patients With Diabetes After Moderate Loss in Kidney Function—Even Without Albuminuria
Our results support a diabetes-dependent decline in kidney function without albuminuria following CKD3, with a subgroup showing a progressive decline. Furthermore, this group seems to be undertreated in terms of cardioprotective and renal-protective treatment and suggests that increased attention should be drawn to normoalbuminuric diabetic kidney disease (Diabetes Care)
