Effects of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors on serum uric acid in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus: A systematic review and network meta-analysis

Xiaodong Hu et al.

Summary: SGLT-2 inhibitors were found to significantly reduce SUA levels in patients with T2DM, with luseogliflozin (1mg and 10mg) and dapagliflozin (5mg) showing the best effects. This suggests that SGLT-2 inhibitors may be a promising treatment option for T2DM patients with high SUA levels.

Summary: The study analyzed clinical data of 26,971 individuals and found that serum uric acid levels were positively correlated with kidney disease measures (eGFR and albuminuria), especially in cases of renal function decline.

Summary: In the study, empagliflozin was found to reduce the risk of heart failure and death in patients with type 2 diabetes and established cardiovascular disease. Changes in blood parameters such as hemoglobin were identified as the most important mediators of this reduction.

Treating Hyperuricemia: The Last Word Hasn't Been Said Yet

Elisa Russo et al.

Summary: Gout and asymptomatic hyperuricemia are associated with traditional cardiovascular risk factors and chronic kidney disease. Recent trials have failed to show the benefits of allopurinol treatment on kidney outcomes, raising doubts on renal protection expectations from urate lowering treatment. The study aims to provide possible explanations for the lack of effect of urate lowering treatment on chronic kidney disease progression.

Mediators of the improvement in heart failure outcomes with empagliflozin in the EMPA-REG OUTCOME trial

David Fitchett et al.

Summary: The study found that changes in haematocrit and haemoglobin were the most important mediators of the reduction in risk of HHF and death from HF in patients with T2DM and established CV disease treated with empagliflozin, while albumin, uric acid, and logUACR had smaller mediating effects in this population.
