1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) are a relatively new class of antidiabetic drugs that in addition to emerging as an effective antihyperglycemic treatment have been shown to improve, in several trials, both renal and cardiovascular outcomes. In consideration of the renal site of action and the associated osmotic diuresis, a negative sodium balance has been postulated during SGLT2i administration. Actually, sodium and water depletion may contribute to some positive actions of SGLT2i but evidence is far from being conclusive and the real physiologic effects of SGLT2i on sodium remain largely unknown. Indeed, no study has yet investigated how SGLT2i change sodium balance in the long term and especially the pathways through which the natriuretic effect is expressed. Furthermore, several experimental studies have recently identified different pathways, not directly linked to tubular sodium handling, which could contribute to the renal and cardiovascular benefits associated with SGLT2i. This paper will review the evidence of SGLT2i action on sodium transporters, their off-target effects and their potential role on kidney protection.
