Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors for diabetic kidney disease: a primer for deprescribing.
Article in Clinical kidney journal, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a critical global public health problem associated with high morbidity and mortality, poorer quality of life and increased health care expenditures. CKD and its associated comorbidities are one of the most complex clinical constellations to manage. Treatments for CKD and its comorbidities lead to polypharmacy, which exponentiates the morbidity and mortality. Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) have shown remarkable benefits in cardiovascular and renal protection in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The pleiotropic effects of SGLT2is beyond glycosuria suggest a promising role in reducing polypharmacy in diabetic CKD, but the potential adverse effects of SGLT2is should also be considered. In this review, we present a typical case of a patient with multiple comorbidities seen in a CKD clinic, highlighting the polypharmacy and complexity in the management of proteinuria, hyperkalemia, volume overload, hyperuricemia, hypoglycemia and obesity. We review the cardiovascular and renal protection effects of SGLT2is in the context of clinical trials and current guidelines. We then discuss the roles of SGLT2is in the management of associated comorbidities and review the adverse effects and controversies of SGLT2is. We conclude with a proposal for deprescribing principles when initiating SGLT2is in patients with diabetic CKD.
