The Impact of SGLT1 Inhibition on Frailty and Sarcopenia: A Mediation Mendelian Randomization Study.
Article in Journal of cachexia, sarcopenia and muscle, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundAlthough pharmacological effects of SGLT2 inhibitors on the development of frailty and sarcopenia were known, the role of SGLT1 remained less clear. The present study investigated the possible effect of SGLT1 inhibition on these conditions and explored potential mediators.
methodsA two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis was performed to assess the effect of SGLT1 inhibition on frailty index (FI) and low grip strength in individuals aged 60 years and older using both the FNIH and EWGSOP criteria. Subsequently, a two-step MR analysis was conducted to investigate the mediating role of insulin resistance phenotype and identify potential mediators of the effect of SGLT1 inhibition on the FI and low grip strength from 1558 plasma proteins and 1352 metabolites.
resultsGenetically predicted SGLT1 inhibition was associated with decreased FI (β: -0.290 [95% CI: -0.399, -0.181]) and reduced risk of low grip strength in individuals aged 60 years and older under both FNIH (β: -0.796 [95% CI: -1.216, -0.376]) and EWGSOP criteria (β: -0.287 [95% CI: -0.532, -0.041]). The two-step MR analysis demonstrated the role of insulin resistance phenotype in mediating SGTL1 inhibition on alleviating frailty (mediation proportion = 19.56% [95% CI: 8.42%, 30.70%]). After screening, 24 proteins and 16 metabolites were identified as mediators of the impact of SGLT1 inhibition on FI. Additionally, 13 proteins and 16 metabolites were found to mediate the effect of SGLT1 inhibition on low grip strength according to FNIH criteria while 22 proteins and 6 metabolites were shown to mediate the impact of SGLT1 inhibition on low grip strength under EWGSOP criteria.
conclusionsSGLT1 inhibition potentially mitigated frailty and sarcopenia through several biological mediators, shedding new light for therapeutic intervention.
