RESUMO
AIM: To conduct a post hoc subgroup analysis of patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) from the RECAP study, who were treated with sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitor and glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonist (GLP-1RA) combination therapy, focusing only on those patients who had chronic kidney disease (CKD), to examine whether the composite renal outcome differed between those who received SGLT2 inhibitor treatment first and those who received a GLP-1RA first. METHODS: We included 438 patients with CKD (GLP-1RA-first group, n = 223; SGLT2 inhibitor-first group, n = 215) from the 643 T2D patients in the RECAP study. The incidence of the composite renal outcome, defined as progression to macroalbuminuria and/or a ≥50% decrease in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), was analysed using a propensity score (PS)-matched model. Furthermore, we calculated the win ratio for these composite renal outcomes, which were weighted in the following order: (1) both a ≥50% decrease in eGFR and progression to macroalbuminuria; (2) a decrease in eGFR of ≥50% only; and (3) progression to macroalbuminuria only. RESULTS: Using the PS-matched model, 132 patients from each group were paired. The incidence of renal composite outcomes did not differ between the two groups (GLP-1RA-first group, 10%; SGLT2 inhibitor-first group, 17%; odds ratio 1.80; 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.85 to 4.26; p = 0.12). The win ratio of the GLP-1RA-first group versus the SGLT2 inhibitor-first group was 1.83 (95% CI 1.71 to 1.95; p < 0.001). CONCLUSION: Although the renal composite outcome did not differ between the two groups, the win ratio of the GLP-1RA-first group versus the SGLT2 inhibitor-first group was significant. These results suggest that, in GLP-1RA and SGLT2 inhibitor combination therapy, the addition of an SGLT2 inhibitor to baseline GLP-1RA treatment may lead to more favourable renal outcomes.

Use of chronic vitamin K antagonist (VKA) induces a long-term deficiency of vitamin K, which may cause arterial stiffness and bone-related disease. Switching from VKA to rivaroxaban could induce rapid sufficiency of vitamin K and improvement of arterial stiffness. The K2 SUMMIT-3 study is a multicenter, open-label, prospective, and randomized design. Patients with atrial fibrillation who have been taking VKA for more than 6 months but less than 10 years were randomly assigned to two groups; those switching from VKA to rivaroxaban and those continuing with VKA medication. The primary endpoint was the percentage difference of brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) in 3 months. A total of 77 patients were randomly assigned to receive rivaroxaban (n = 38) or VKA (n = 39). The average age was 74 ± 9 years. The duration for which VKA was prescribed prior to randomization was 90 ± 87 months.Abnormally high levels of Des-gamma carboxyprothrombin (PIVKA-II) or uncarboxylated osteocalcin (ucOC) indicating vitamin K insufficiency were observed in 100% or 82% of the patients at baseline but it reduced to 2% (p < 0.0001) or 55% (p = 0.01) at 3 months in the rivaroxaban group. To the contrary, theses data had no changes in the VKA group. The percentage difference in baPWV was - 1.4 ± 10.0% vs. 3.5 ± 14.7% in the rivaroxaban and the VKA groups, respectively. (p = 0.02). Switching from VKA to rivaroxaban resulted in rapid sufficiency of vitamin K and reduction of arterial stiffness in 3 months.

RESUMO
Decrease in blood pressure contributes to the reno-protective effects of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors; however, its relationship with home monitoring of blood pressure is unclear. We retrospectively analyzed 101 visiting members of the Kanagawa Physicians Association with type 2 diabetes mellitus and chronic kidney disease who were taking sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors and who monitored blood pressure at home for a median treatment period of 14 months. At baseline, the mean value of HbA1c was 59.3 mmol/mol (7.6%) and the median value of albumin-creatinine ratio was 30.9 mg/gCr that was evaluated in 88 patients. The mean blood pressure both at office and home significantly decreased, and there was a significant positive correlation between the change in albumin-creatinine ratio and both blood pressures. Controlled hypertension, masked hypertension, white coat hypertension, and sustained hypertension were observed in 10.9%, 13.9%, 12.9%, and 62.4% of patients at the initiation of therapy, which changed to 10.9%, 16.8%, 17.8%, and 54.5% at the time of the survey, respectively. In conclusion, management of blood pressure both at office and home was found to be important for the reno-protective effects of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors along with strict blood pressure management.

Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitor (SGLT2-I) shows excellent antihypertensive effects in addition to its hypoglycemic effects. However, whether body mass index (BMI) affects the antihypertensive effect of SGLT2-I remains unknown. We investigated the impact of baseline BMI on the achievement of target blood pressure (BP) with SGLT2-I treatment in Japanese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and chronic kidney disease (CKD). We retrospectively evaluated 447 Japanese patients with T2DM and CKD treated with SGLT2-I for at least 1 year. The primary outcome was achieving the target BP (<130/80 mmHg) after SGLT2-I treatment. Patients were divided into two groups according to a baseline BMI of 29.1 determined by receiver operating characteristic analysis and analyzed in a cohort model with propensity score matching. In each group, 130 patients were compared by propensity score matching. The target BP achievement rate was significantly higher in the BMI < 29.1 group than in the BMI ≥ 29.1 group (34% and 21%, respectively, p = 0.03). The odds ratio for achieving the target BP in the BMI ≥ 29.1 group was 0.50 (95% confidence interval, 0.28-0.90, p = 0.02). The BMI < 29.1 group had significantly lower systolic and diastolic BPs after SGLT2-I treatment than the BMI ≥ 29.1 group. Only the BMI < 29.1 group was showed a significant decrease in the logarithmic albumin-to-creatinine ratio from baseline after SGLT2-I treatment. In patients with T2DM and CKD, baseline BMI was associated with the antihypertensive effects of SGLT2-I. Patients in the lower baseline BMI group were more likely to achieve the target BP after SGLT2-I treatment. Pretreatment BMI affects the antihypertensice effect of SGLT2 inhibirors in patients with T2DM and CKD.

Accumulating evidence has demonstrated that both SGLT2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) and GLP-1 receptor agonists (GLP1Ra) have protective effects in patients with diabetic kidney disease. Combination therapy with SGLT2i and GLP1Ra is commonly used in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D). We previously reported that in combination therapy of SGLT2i and GLP1Ra, the effect on the renal composite outcome did not differ according to the preceding drug. However, it remains unclear how the initiation of combination therapy is associated with the renal function depending on the preceding drug. In this post hoc analysis, we analyzed a total of 643 T2D patients (GLP1Ra-preceding group, n = 331; SGLT2i-preceding group, n = 312) and investigated the differences in annual eGFR decline. Multiple imputation and propensity score matching were performed to compare the annual eGFR decline. The reduction in annual eGFR decline in the SGLT2i-preceding group (pre: -3.5 ± 9.4 mL/min/1.73 m2/year, post: -0.4 ± 6.3 mL/min/1.73 m2/year, p < 0.001), was significantly smaller after the initiation of GLP1Ra, whereas the GLP1Ra-preceding group tended to slow the eGFR decline but not to a statistically significant extent (pre: -2.0 ± 10.9 mL/min/1.73 m2/year, post: -1.8 ± 5.4 mL/min/1.73 m2/year, p = 0.83) after the initiation of SGLT2i. After the addition of GLP1Ra to SGLT2i-treated patients, slower annual eGFR decline was observed. Our data raise the possibility that the renal benefits-especially annual eGFR decline-of combination therapy with SGLT2i and GLP1Ra may be affected by the preceding drug.
RESUMO
We aim to assess the data of patients with hypertension in Kanagawa Prefecture, Japan, collected in 2021 that were provided by the Japan Medical Association Database of Clinical Medicine. Data collected in 2011 and 2014 by the Kanagawa Physicians Association were used for comparative analysis. The target blood pressure (BP) achievement rates for patients whose target office and home BP were <140/90 mmHg and <135/85 mmHg, respectively, were 72.5% and 75.8% in 2011, 66.0% and 68.5% in 2014, and 46.7% and 83.3% in 2021, respectively. The target office BP achievement rate in 2021 was significantly lower than those in 2011 and 2014 (p ≤ 0.009). In contrast, there was no significant difference and improvement of the achievement rates for patients whose target office and home BP were <130/80 mmHg and <125/75 mmHg, respectively, among the three surveys. After the Japanese Society of Hypertension 2019 Guidelines were released, the achievement rates for patients whose target BP was tightened were significantly lower than those for patients with unchanged target BP (office/home, p < 0.001/0.04). The proportion of the patients who achieved their office and home target BP using more than three drugs was 38.5% and 20.0%, respectively. In the present analysis, we unveiled the current problems encountered in the clinical management of hypertension in Japan. In particular, efforts should be focused on the management of patients that require strict BP control.

Aims: This study aimed to clarify the renal influence of glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists (GLP1Ras) with or without sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) on Japanese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Methods: We retrospectively extracted 547 patients with T2DM who visited the clinics of members of Kanagawa Physicians Association. The progression of albuminuria status and/or aâ ≥â 15% decrease in the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) per year was set as the renal composite outcome. Propensity score matching was performed to compare GLP1Ra-treated patients with and without SGLT2i. Results: After matching, 186 patients in each group were compared. There was no significant difference of the incidence of the renal composite outcomes (17% vs. 20%, Pâ =â 0.50); however, the annual decrease in the eGFR was significantly smaller and the decrease in the urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio was larger in GLP1Ra-treated patients with the concomitant use of SGLT2is than in those without it (-1.1â ±â 5.0 vs. -2.8â ±â 5.1â mL/min/1.73 m2, Pâ =â 0.001; and -0.08â ±â 0.61 vs. 0.05â ±â 0.52, Pâ =â 0.03, respectively). Conclusion: The concomitant use of SGLT2i with GLP1Ra improved the annual decrease in the eGFR and the urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio in Japanese patients with T2DM.
RESUMO
AIMS: Combination therapy with sodium-glucose cotransporter inhibitors (SGLT2is) and GLP-1 receptor agonists (GLP1Ras) is now of interest in clinical practice. The present study evaluated the effects of the preceding drug type on the renal outcome in clinical practice. METHODS: We retrospectively extracted type 2 diabetes mellitus patients who had received both SGLT2i and GLP1Ra treatment for at least 1 year. A total of 331 patients in the GLP1Ra-preceding group and 312 patients in the SGLT2i-preceding group were ultimately analyzed. Either progression of the albuminuria status and/or a ≥30% decrease in the eGFR was set as the primary renal composite outcome. The analysis using propensity score with inverse probability weighting was performed for the outcome. RESULTS: The incidences of the renal composite outcome in the SGLT2i- and GLP1Ra-preceding groups were 28% and 25%, respectively, with an odds ratio [95% confidence interval] of 1.14 [0.75, 1.73] (p = .54). A logistic regression analysis showed that the mean arterial pressure (MAP) at baseline, the logarithmic value of the urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio at baseline, and the change in MAP were independent factors influencing the renal composite outcome. CONCLUSION: With combination therapy of SGLT2i and GLP1Ra, the preceding drug did not affect the renal outcome.

Polypharmacy is a serious concern in general practice, especially among elder patients; however, the evidence showing significantly poor renal outcomes is not sufficient. This survey was performed to evaluate the effect of polypharmacy on the incidence of the renal composite outcome among a sample of patients with sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitor (SGLT2i) treatment. We assessed 624 Japanese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and chronic kidney disease who received SGLT2i treatment for greater than 1 year. The patients were classified as those with concomitant treatment, that was limited to the medications for hypertension, T2DM, and dyslipidemia, with greater than or equal to seven medications (n = 110) and those with less than seven medications (n = 514). Evaluation of the renal composite outcome was performed by propensity score matching and stratification into quintiles. A subgroup analysis of patients of greater than or equal to 62 years of age and less than 62 years of age was also performed. The incidence of the renal composite outcome was larger in patients with greater than or equal to seven medications than in those with less than seven medications in the propensity score-matched cohort model (6% vs. 17%, respectively, p = 0.007) and also in the quintile-stratified analysis (odds ratio [OR], 2.23, 95% confidence interval [CI, 1.21-4.12, p = 0.01). The quintile-stratified analysis of patients of less than 62 years of age-but not those of greater than or equal to 62 years of age-also showed a significant difference (OR, 3.29, 95% CI, 1.41-7.69, p = 0.006). Polypharmacy appears to be associated to the incidence of the renal composite outcome, especially in young patients.

The cardiovascular and renal protective effects of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT-2is) and glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists (GLP-1Ras) are enhanced by low/controlled blood pressure (BP). However, the BP-lowering efficacy of SGLT-2is and GLP-1Ras have not been compared directly. We compared the rates of achieving target BP with SGLT-2i and GLP-1Ra treatments in Japanese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). This retrospective study included 384 SGLT-2i- and 160 GLP-1Ra-treated patients with BP > 130/80 mmHg before treatment. Inverse probability weighting methods using propensity scores were used in this study. The integrated odds ratios (OR) for BP control rates were calculated and clinical changes were analyzed using a generalized linear model. SGLT-2i treatment resulted in significantly higher BP control rates than that in the GLP-1Ra treatment (integrated OR = 2.09 [1.80, 2.43]). Compared with GLP-1Ra, SGLT-2i treatment demonstrated significantly larger decreases in diastolic BP, mean arterial pressure, and body weight (- 3.8 mmHg, P = 0.006; - 4.1 mmHg, P = 0.01; and - 1.5 kg, P = 0.008, respectively) and increased annual estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR; 1.5 mL/min/1.73 m2/year, P = 0.04). In T2DM patients with poorly controlled BP, compared with GLP-1Ra, SGLT-2i treatment significantly improved BP management and increased eGFR.

AIMS: This study aimed to clarify the differences in how sodium glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) and glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists (GLP1Ra) influence kidney function in Japanese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). METHODS: We retrospectively built two databases of patients with T2DM who visited the clinics of members of Kanagawa Physicians Association. We defined the renal composite outcome as either progression of albuminuria status and/or > 15% deterioration in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) per year. We used propensity score matching to compare patient outcomes after SGLT2i and GLP1Ra treatments. RESULTS: The incidence of renal composite outcomes was significantly lower in SGLT2i-treated patients than in GLP1Ra-treated patients (n = 15[11%] and n = 27[20%], respectively, P = 0.001). Annual eGFR changes (mL/min/1.73 m2/year) between the two groups differed significantly (-1.8 [95 %CI, -2.7, -0.9] in SGLT2i-treated patients and - 3.4 [95 %CI, -4.6, -2.2] in GLP1Ra-treated patients, P = 0.0049). The urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio changed owing to a significant interaction between the presence or absence of a decrease in systolic blood pressure and the difference in treatments (P < 0.04). CONCLUSION: Renal composite outcome incidence was lower in SGLT2i-treated patients than in GLP1Ra-treated patients.

In 2019, the Japanese Society of Hypertension guidelines for the management of hypertension (JSH) were revised. We previously reported the awareness of JSH among general practitioners in 2014, and in the current study, the same questionnaire was administered to determine their awareness of JSH 2019, and their responses were compared. We also sought to identify effective strategies to raise awareness of hypertension. The questionnaires included the same 12 questions as in 2014 and were mailed to members of two professional organizations from October to November 2019. Responses from 256 general practitioners in 2019 and 209 in 2014 were compared using the propensity score matching method to align the responders' backgrounds. Component analysis was performed to classify responders into appropriate clusters. The matched cohort of all 202 responders was analyzed. In both 2014 and 2019, >80% of responders instructed patients to perform home blood pressure monitoring (JSH 2014: 81.7% and JSH 2019: 84.6% in the matched cohort), and >70% instructed patients with hypertension to restrict their salt intake (JSH 2014: 79.7% and JSH 2019: 74.7% in the matched cohort). Regarding the clinical blood pressure measurement method, more responders answered "one time outside the consulting room" in the JSH 2019 group (p = 0.042). Fewer general practitioners responded that differential diagnosis for primary aldosteronism was performed in the JSH 2019 group (p = 0.032); however, the frequency of checking the aldosterone-renin ratio increased in the JSH 2019 group (p = 0.055). We confirmed the change in general practitioners' awareness of hypertension management. The categorized clusters may be useful for the development of effective strategies for higher-quality hypertension management in clinical practice.

AIMS/INTRODUCTION: Large-scale clinical trials have reported that, in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitor treatment affords favorable renal outcomes; the underlying mechanisms, however, remain unclear. Thus, this study investigated how SGLT2 inhibitor-induced changes in the mean arterial pressure (MAP; denoted as ΔMAP) are associated with renal outcomes in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). MATERIALS AND METHODS: We retrospectively assessed the data of 624 Japanese type 2 diabetes mellitus patients with CKD who had been using SGLT2 inhibitors for >1 year. For propensity score matching (1:1 nearest neighbor match, with caliper value = 0.053, no replacement), patients were categorized into two groups based on the ΔMAP (>-4 mmHg [n = 329] and ≤-4.0 mmHg [n = 295]). Composite albuminuria progression or a ≥15% annual reduction in the estimated glomerular filtration rate was regarded as the end-point. RESULTS: Per group, 173 propensity-matched patients were compared. Patients with ΔMAP ≤-4 mmHg had a significantly lower incidence of composite renal outcomes than those with ΔMAP ≥-4 mmHg (5.8% [n = 10] vs 15.6% [n = 27], P = 0.003). Although the between-group differences in the estimated glomerular filtration rates were non-significant, patients with a ΔMAP ≤-4 mmHg had significantly larger reductions in the logarithmic urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio (P = 0.005). CONCLUSIONS: The degree of blood pressure reduction after SGLT2 inhibitor treatment influenced renal composite outcomes in Japanese type 2 diabetes mellitus patients with CKD, confirming the importance of blood pressure management in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients with CKD, even when they are under SGLT2 inhibitor treatment.

Aim: Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) provide renal protection in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The aim of this study was to elucidate the renal effects of long-term use of six types of SGLT2is in Japanese patients with T2DM and chronic kidney disease (CKD). Materials and Methods: The Kanagawa Physicians Association maintains a registry of patients who visit their 31 clinics. We retrieved clinical data of patients with T2DM and CKD who were prescribed with SGLT2is for >1 year. Results: A total of 763 patients with a median treatment duration of 33 months were included. The logarithmic value of urine albumin-creatinine ratio (LNACR) decreased significantly from 1.60 ± 0.65 to 1.51 ± 0.67. The multiple linear regression analysis revealed that the LNACR at the initiation of treatment, change in (Δ) diastolic blood pressure, and Δ hemoglobin A1c were independently correlated with ΔLNACR (P < 0.001). The decrease in the LNACR was significantly smaller in the patients with estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) [mL/(min ·1.73 m2)] of <60 (P < 0.05). The eGFR decreased from 77.4 ± 22.3 to 72.7 ± 22.5 mL/(min ·1.73 m2) (P < 0.001). The multiple linear regression analysis showed that the LNACR at the initiation of treatment, Δbody weight at the previous survey, ΔeGFR at the previous survey, and the eGFR at the initiation of treatment correlated independently with ΔeGFR during the maintenance period (P < 0.001). Greater changes in the eGFR during the maintenance period were observed in the patients with macroalbuminuria or eGFR of <60 (P < 0.01). Conclusions: The study confirmed that the long-term use of six types of SGLT2i improved the albumin-creatinine ratio (ACR), although the eGFR gradually decreased during the treatment. The change in the ACR was significantly smaller in the patients with eGFR of <60 mL/(min ·1.73 m2) than in those with eGFR of >60 mL/(min ·1.73 m2). However, this was a retrospective observational study; further studies are needed to formulate final conclusions.

AIMS/INTRODUCTION: Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) improve renal outcome in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, but the mechanism is not fully understood. The aim of this retrospective study was to assess the association of achieved blood pressure with renal outcomes in Japanese type 2 diabetes mellitus patients with chronic kidney disease. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We assessed 624 Japanese type 2 diabetes mellitus patients with chronic kidney disease taking SGLT2i for >1 year. The patients were classified as those with post-treatment mean arterial pressure (MAP) of ≥92 mmHg (n = 344) and those with MAP of <92 mmHg (n = 280) for propensity score matching (1:1 nearest neighbor match with 0.04 of caliper value and no replacement). The end-point was a composite of progression of albuminuria or a decrease in the estimated glomerular filtration rate by ≥15% per year. RESULTS: By propensity score matching, a matched cohort model was constructed, including 201 patients in each group. The incidence of renal composite outcome was significantly lower among patients with MAP of <92 mmHg than among patients with MAP of ≥92 mmHg (n = 11 [6%] vs n = 26 [13%], respectively, P = 0.001). The change in estimated glomerular filtration rate was similar in the two groups; however, the change in the albumin-to-creatinine ratio was significantly larger in patients with MAP of <92 mmHg. CONCLUSIONS: In Japanese type 2 diabetes mellitus patients with chronic kidney disease, blood pressure after SGLT2i administration influences the renal composite outcome. Blood pressure management is important, even during treatment with SGLT2i.

The decrease in blood pressure is thought to play an important role for the renoprotective effects of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors in patients with diabetes mellitus. However, their influence on blood pressure at home has not been well studied. The aim of this study is to clarify how long-term use of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors influence on blood pressure both at the office and at home, and the kidney function. We retrospectively analyzed 102 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and chronic kidney disease to whom sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors were administered for more than 1 year, and whose blood pressure were monitored both at the office and at home. The blood pressure at the office and at home significantly decreased, and there was a significant positive correlation between both blood pressure values. Controlled, white-coat, and sustained hypertension were observed in 9.8%, 14.7%, and 55.9% of the patients at the beginning of the treatment, which changed to 16.7%, 15.7%, and 48.0% at the time of the survey, however, the ratio of masked hypertension was not changed (19.6%). The cutoff value of mean arterial pressure at home after treatment for the improvement of urine albumin to creatinine ratio was 92.0 mm Hg, with 54.1% of sensitivity and 60.0% of specificity. Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors can be useful for the strict management of blood pressures both at the office and at home. The decrease in blood pressure at home by this treatment might be related to the improvement of diabetic nephropathy.

AIM: The aim of this study was to assess the renal effects of the glucose-lowering SGLT2 inhibitors in Japanese type 2 diabetes mellitus patients with chronic kidney disease. METHODS: The Kanagawa Physicians Association maintains a registry of patients who visit their 31 clinics. Clinical data of type 2 diabetes mellitus patients with chronic kidney disease, who were prescribed SGLT2 inhibitors in addition to other treatments, were collected and analysed. RESULTS: SGLT2i was associated with a fall in HbA1c from 64.1 ± 16.7 mmol/mol (8.0 ± 1.5%) to 56.5 ± 12.9 mmol/mol (7.3 ± 1.2%) ( p < 0.01) in 869 analysed cases, a decrease in urine albumin-creatinine ratio from a median of 47.1 to 41.1 mg/gCr, and decrease in estimated glomerular filtration rate from 77.7 ± 23.9 to 75.0 ± 23.9 mL/min/1.73 m2 ( p < 0.01). The effect on albumin-creatinine ratio was independent of age or stage of estimated glomerular filtration; however, there was a significant negative correlation between albumin-creatinine ratio at the initiation of SGLT2 inhibitor and change in ACR. Multiple linear regression analysis identified use of empagliflozin, ß-blockers, and sulphonylureas, Δsystolic blood pressure at office, serum Cr and albumin-creatinine ratio value at initiation of SGLT2 inhibitor as independent and significant determinants of change in ACR. CONCLUSIONS: This study confirmed that the beneficial renal effects of SGLT2 inhibitor in Japanese type 2 diabetes mellitus patients with chronic kidney disease, similar to those reported in large-scale clinical trials conducted in Western countries.

AIM: The renoprotective effect of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors is thought to be due, at least in part, to a decrease in blood pressure. The aim of this study was to determine the renal effects of these inhibitors in low blood pressure patients and the dependence of such effect on blood pressure management status. METHODS: The subjects of this retrospective study were 740 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and chronic kidney disease who had been managed at the clinical facilities of the Kanagawa Physicians Association. Data on blood pressure management status and urinary albumin-creatinine ratio were analyzed before and after treatment. RESULTS: Changes in the logarithmic value of urinary albumin-creatinine ratio in 327 patients with blood pressure < 130/80 mmHg at the initiation of treatment and in 413 patients with BP above 130/80 mmHg were -0.13 ± 1.05 and -0.24 ± 0.97, respectively. However, there was no significant difference between the two groups by analysis of covariance models after adjustment of the logarithmic value of urinary albumin-creatinine ratio at initiation of treatment. Changes in the logarithmic value of urinary albumin-creatinine ratio in patients with mean blood pressure of <102 mmHg (n = 537) and those with ≥102 mmHg (n = 203) at the time of the survey were -0.25 ± 1.02 and -0.03 ± 0.97, respectively, and the difference was significant in analysis of covariance models even after adjustment for the logarithmic value of urinary albumin-creatinine ratio at initiation of treatment (p < 0.001). CONCLUSION: 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.

We conducted a descriptive case study to examine the effects of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors on urinary angiotensinogen excretion, which represents the function of the intrarenal renin-angiotensin system, in patients with type 2 diabetes. An SGLT2 inhibitor (canagliflozin 100 mg/day, ipragliflozin 25 mg/day, dapagliflozin 5 mg/day, luseogliflozin 2.5 mg/day or tofogliflozin 20 mg/day) was administered for 1 month (n=9). ELISA kits were used to measure both urinary intact and total angiotensinogen levels. Treatment with SGLT2 inhibitors significantly decreased hemoglobin A1c, body weight, systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure (8.5±1.3 to 7.5%±1.0%, 82.5±20.2 to 80.6±20.9 kg, 143±8 to 128±14 mm Hg, 78±10 to 67±9 mm Hg, p<0.05, respectively), while urinary albumin/creatinine ratio was not significantly changed (58.6±58.9 to 29.2±60.7 mg/g, p=0.16). Both total urinary angiotensinogen/creatinine ratio and intact urinary angiotensinogen/creatinine ratio tended to decrease after administration of SGLT2 inhibitors. However, these changes were not significant (p=0.19 and p=0.08, respectively). These data suggest that treatment with SGLT2 inhibitors does not activate the intrarenal renin-angiotensin system in patients with type 2 diabetes.
