The Effect of Sodium-Glucose Cotransporter Inhibitors on Renal Function as Adjunctive to Insulin in Adults with Type 1 Diabetes: An Updated Multilevel Meta-analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials.
Diabetes Therapy : Research, Treatment and Education of Diabetes and related Disorders 2024 January 6
INTRODUCTION: This systematic review aimed to summarize the existing evidence from published randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on the impact of sodium-glucose cotransporter (SGLT) inhibitors on albuminuria levels and renal function in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1D).
METHODS: The literature search was performed through Medline (via PubMed), Cochrane Library, and Scopus until November 11, 2023. Double-independent study selection, data extraction, and quality assessment were performed. Evidence was pooled with three-level mixed-effects meta-analysis.
RESULTS: In total, 5221 participants with T1D among 11 RCTs were analyzed. All RCTs had low risk of bias according to the Cochrane Collaboration tool (RoB 2). SGLT inhibitors were associated with a significantly greater reduction in urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR) compared to controls (MD = - 23.13%; 95% CI = [- 33.69, - 12.57]; P < 0.001; level of evidence high). On the basis of subgroup analysis, this effect was consistent across all available SGLT inhibitors, irrespective of the dosage. Finally, a neutral class effect was observed on the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR, MD = - 1.03 mL/min/1.73 m2 ; 95% CI = [- 2.26, 0.19]; P = 0.1; level of evidence moderate). Only empagliflozin was associated with a significant reduction in eGFR compared to placebo (MD = - 2.23 mL/min/1.73 m2 ; 95% CI = [- 3.62, - 0.84]; P = 0.002).
CONCLUSION: Our findings suggest that adjunctive therapy with SGLT inhibitors results in a significant reduction in albuminuria, while their use is associated with a neutral effect on creatinine clearance, as a measure of renal function. Future renal outcome trials are needed to assess SGLT inhibitors' role in the pharmacological armamentarium against diabetic nephropathy in T1D.
