Sodium‐glucose co‐transporter 2 inhibitors and hematopoiesis

Journal of Cellular Physiology, 2022
AbstractMany patients with diabetes mellitus, especially those with chronic kidney disorders, have some degree of anemia due to a spectrum of causes and underlying pathophysiologic pathways. As such, enhancement in erythropoiesis is important in these patients.

Sodium–glucose co-transporter-2 inhibitors

2022
Abstract This chapter studies the use of aldosterone antagonists, also known as Mineralocorticoid Receptor Antagonists (MRAs), in chronic heart failure (CHF). Overall, the results for aldosterone blockade in CHF due to left ventricular systolic dysfunction (LVSD) — now called heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HF-REF) — have ...

The unexpected benefits of sodium glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors

New Zealand Medical Journal, 2022
The sodium glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitor empagliflozin is currently funded in New Zealand for management of patients with type 2 diabetes who have an HbA1c >53mmol/mol and a high cardiovascular (CV) risk. Large clinical trials now provide strong evidence that SGLT2 inhibitors decrease the risk of cardiovascular death, heart failure ...

Sodium glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors and their nephroprotective potential

Clinical Nephrology, 2017
Chronic kidney disease among patients with diabetes is on the rise. The sodium glucose co-transporters 2 inhibitors are a new class of glucose-lowering agents, which act through a novel mechanism by producing a decline in glucose reabsorption in the kidney, thereby increasing glucosuria and decreasing serum glucose levels.

Sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors and Sarcopenia: A controversy that must be solved

Clinical Nutrition, 2023
Diabetes mellitus is a risk factor for muscle loss and sarcopenia. Sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) or "gliflozins" are one of the newest anti-hyperglycemic drugs. They reduce blood glucose levels by inhibiting renal glucose reabsorption in the early proximal convoluted tubule. Various randomized trials showed that SGLT2i have cardio-

A safety update on sodium glucose co‐transporter 2 inhibitors

Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, 2019
Sodium glucose co‐transporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) are the first class of glucose lowering agent to be shown to reduce cardiovascular events. They are generally well tolerated with infrequent serious adverse events. The most frequent side effect is genital mycotic infections with candida species that are usually mild to moderate in severity, easily ...

Cardiac and renal effects of sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors

Drug and Therapeutics Bulletin, 2023
After initially being licensed as treatment for diabetes, the range of indications for sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors has expanded to include chronic heart failure and chronic kidney disease. This article provides an overview of some of the evidence that supports the use of SGLT2 inhibitors in the management of chronic heart failure
