A review of the safety of sodium‐glucose co‐transporter‐2 inhibitors
Abstract The development of sodium‐glucose co‐transporter‐2 (SGLT2) inhibitors represents a major turning point in the effort to preserve kidney function and prevent cardiovascular events and heart failure hospitalisations in those at high risk. These agents have now transcended their original glucose‐lowering indication and provide a

Comparative safety of different sodium-glucose transporter 2 inhibitors in patients with type 2 diabetes: a systematic review and network meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials. [PDF]
Backgrounds The safety of different sodium-glucose transporter 2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors remains uncertain due to the lack of head-to-head comparisons. Methods This network meta-analysis (NMA) was performed to compare the safety of nine SGLT-2 inhibitors in ...

The Early Pathogenesis of Diabetic Retinopathy and Its Attenuation by Sodium-Glucose Transporter 2 Inhibitors. [PDF]
The early pathogenetic mechanism of diabetic retinopathy (DR) and its treatment remain unclear. Therefore, we used streptozotocin-induced diabetic mice to investigate the early pathogenic alterations in DR and the protective effect of sodium–glucose ...

Comparative Effects of Sodium-Glucose Cotransporter 2 Inhibitor and Thiazolidinedione Treatment on Risk of Stroke among Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus [PDF]
Background Although cardiovascular outcome trials using sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT-2i) showed a reduction in risk of 3-point major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), they did not demonstrate beneficial effects on stroke risk ...

Research advances on renoprotective mechanism of SGLT-2 inhibitors in non-diabetic kidney disease
Sodium-glucose linked transporter (SGLT-2) inhibitors are the most emerging glucose-lowering agents. Predominantly expressed in kidney, SGLT-2 is mainly distributed in upper part of proximal tubule.

Harms and benefits fo sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors [PDF]
Sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors are oral glucose-lowering drugs that increase the urinary excretion of glucose. In patients with type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease they reduce all-cause mortality, cardiac mortality, rates of hospitalisation for heart failure and the progression of renal disease There are adverse effects related to ...

Safety of Sodium-Glucose Co-Transporter 2 Inhibitors [PDF]
Sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors have a well-defined safety profile based on data obtained from numerous clinical trials, including cardiovascular outcomes trials (CVOTs) and postmarketing pharmacovigilance reporting. Adverse events including risk of genital mycotic infection and volume depletion-related events are consistent with the
