In routine care, SGLT2is have greater effects on cardiometabolic risk factors than SUs. Routine care data closely replicates the effects of diabetes drugs on physiological variables measured in clinical trials (Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism)

Assessing the Risk for Gout With Sodium–Glucose Cotransporter-2 Inhibitors in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes
Adults with type 2 diabetes prescribed an SGLT2 inhibitor had a lower rate of gout than those prescribed a GLP1 agonist. Sodium–glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors may reduce the risk for gout among adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus, although future studies are necessary to confirm this observation (Annals of Internal Medicine)
Enhancement of the serum chloride concentration by administration of sodium–glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitor and its mechanisms and clinical significance in type 2 diabetic patients
The present study demonstrated that SGLT2i enhances the serum chloride concentration in T2DM patients and suggests that the effect is mediated by the possible following mechanisms: (Diabetology & Metabolic Syndrome)
Fournier’s gangrene and sodium‐glucose co‐transporter‐2 inhibitors: A meta‐analysis of randomized controlled trials
Data from RCTs do not show an increased risk of FG among patients, unlike pharmacovigilance reports, but the number of recorded cases is small (Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism)
Glycemic efficacy and safety of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist on top of sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 inhibitor treatment compared to sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 inhibitor alone: a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials
This meta-analysis suggests that a GLP-1RA/SGLT-2i combination, if tolerated, exerts significant beneficial effects on glycemic control and body weight loss, however increasing the risk for any hypoglycemia and gastrointestinal adverse event (Diabetes Research and Clinical Practice)
Relation between Blood Pressure Management and Renal Effects of Sodium-Glucose Cotransporter 2 Inhibitors in Diabetic Patients with Chronic Kidney Disease
Our results confirmed that blood pressure management status after treatment with SGLT2 inhibitors influences the extent of change in urinary albumin-creatinine ratio. Stricter blood pressure management is needed to allow the renoprotective effects of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (Journal of Diabetes Research)
Sodium-Glucose Cotransporter-2 (SGLT2) Inhibitors: A Clinician’s Guide
This comprehensive review covers the historical background, physiology, application in type 2 diabetes, novel uses, cardiovascular benefits, side effects and contraindications of sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors (Diabetes, Metabolic Syndrome and Obesity)
Lessons learned from the DAPA-HF trial concerning the mechanisms of benefit of SGLT2 inhibitors on heart failure events in the context of other large-scale trials nearing completion
The DAPA-HF trial substantially extends the benefits of SGLT2 inhibitors in slowing the evolution and progression of heart failure, particularly in patients with a reduced ejection fraction (Cardiovascular Diabetology)
SGLT2 inhibitors for the prevention of kidney failure in patients with type 2 diabetes: a systematic review and meta-analysis
SGLT2 inhibitors reduced the risk of dialysis, transplantation, or death due to kidney disease in individuals with type 2 diabetes and provided protection against acute kidney injury. These data provide substantive evidence supporting the use of SGLT2 inhibitors to prevent major kidney outcomes in people with type 2 diabetes (The Lancet Diabetes & Endocrinology)
What Next After Metformin? Thinking Beyond Glycaemia: Are SGLT2 Inhibitors the Answer?
There is growing evidence to illustrate the overall safety profile of this class of agents and support the benefit–risk profile of SGLT2 inhibitors as a preferred option following metformin monotherapy failure, with respect to both kidney disease progression and heart failure outcomes (Diabetes Therapy)
Class effects of SGLT2 inhibitors on cardiorenal outcomes
Dapagliflozin, empagliflozin, and canagliflozin have internally and externally consistent and biologically plausible class effects on cardiorenal outcomes. Baseline renal filtration function and degree of albuminuria are the most significant indicators of risk for both CV and renal events. Thus, these two factors also anticipate the greatest clinical benefit for SGLT2i (Cardiovascular Diabetology)
Dapagliflozin vs Non‐SGLT‐2i Treatment is Associated with Lower Hospital Care Costs in Type 2 Diabetes Patients Similar to the DECLARE‐TIMI 58 Participants
In a nationwide, real‐world, DECLARE‐like population, dapagliflozin was associated with lower hospital costs compared with oGLD, mainly as a result of reduced rates of CV‐ and T2D‐associated complications (Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism)
The future is now: SGLT2 inhibitors and type 1 diabetes – what about exercise?
This novel drug class, which has received wide attention in its glucose-lowering and cardiovascular-protective properties in the management of type 2 diabetes, also bears potential for individuals with T1D who are struggling with achieving glycaemic targets
Sodium–Glucose Cotransporter-2 Inhibitors and the Risk for Severe Urinary Tract Infections: A Population-Based Cohort Study
In a large cohort of patients seen in routine clinical practice, risk for severe and nonsevere UTI events among those initiating SGLT-2 inhibitor therapy was similar to that among patients initiating treatment with other second-line antidiabetic medications (Annals of Internal Medicine)
The future of new drugs for diabetes management
The future of the newer classes of glucose-lowering drugs, namely dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors, glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) and sodium/glucose co-transporter-2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors, is being redefined by the large prospective cardiovascular outcome trials (Diabetes Research and Clinical Practice)
Do GLP‐1RAs and SGLT‐2is reduce cardiovascular events in black patients with type 2 diabetes? A systematic review and meta‐analysis
Given that black patients with type 2 diabetes were not well represented in CVSTs and such trials were underpowered to evaluate racial differences, it remains unclear whether GLP‐1RAs or SGLT‐2is would reduce cardiovascular risk in such patients, and additional studies targeting black patients are urgently needed (Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism)
Exploring Patient Preferences for Adjunct-to-Insulin Therapy in Type 1 Diabetes
Low-dose SGLTi profile was the favored adjunct-to-insulin therapy by persons with T1D (Diabetes Care)
SGLT2 Inhibitors: Cardiovascular Benefits Beyond HbA1c—Translating Evidence into Practice
The Improving Diabetes Steering Committee seeks to support healthcare professionals (HCPs) in appropriate treatment selection for people with T2DM who are at risk of developing or have established CVD and examines the role of SGLT2i therapy for these people. (Diabetes Therapy)
SGLT inhibitors: medications that mimic fasting for cardiovascular prevention
This review proposes a unifying hypothesis to explain the reduction in cardiovascular diseases through three different mechanisms of curbing free fatty acid (FFA) excess, all leading to the common mechanism of cellular caloric restriction. If this hypothesis is correct, the excellent results obtained with SGLT‐2 inhibitors could be attributed to their close simulation of fasting (Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism)
SGLT2 inhibitors in T2D and associated comorbidities — differentiating within the class
Cardiovascular outcomes trials investigating SGLT2 inhibitors have suggested benefits beyond glucose lowering that have been confirmed in real-world evidence studies (BMC Endocrine Disorders)
