Effects of Sodium-Glucose Cotransporter Type 2 Inhibitors on Residual Kidney Function in Patients Undergoing Incremental Hemodialysis: A Two-Center, Retrospective, Exploratory Cohort Study

Article C Peer reviewed Observational

Key takeaways

This study looked at people on dialysis who took a type of diabetes drug called an SGLT-2 inhibitor. It tracked how much kidney function they kept over 12 months. Because it was an observational study, it shows a link but not proof that the drug caused the change.
