SGLT2 Inhibitors Empagliflozin and Canagliflozin Ameliorate Allergic Asthma Responses in Mice.
Article in International journal of molecular sciences, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Inhibitors of sodium/glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2), such as empagliflozin and canagliflozin, have been widely used to block glucose reabsorption in the proximal tubules of kidneys in patients with diabetes. A meta-analysis suggested that SGLT2 inhibitors are associated with a decreased risk of asthma development. Therefore, we investigated whether SGLT2 inhibitors could suppress allergic asthma. Empagliflozin and canagliflozin suppressed the in vitro degranulation reaction induced by antigens in a concentration-dependent manner in RBL-2H3 mast cells. Empagliflozin and canagliflozin were administered to BALB/c mice sensitized to ovalbumin (OVA). The administration of empagliflozin or canagliflozin significantly suppressed OVA-induced airway hyper-responsiveness and increased the number of immune cells and pro-inflammatory cytokine mRNA expression levels in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid. The administration of empagliflozin and canagliflozin also suppressed OVA-induced histopathological changes in the lungs. Empagliflozin and canagliflozin also suppressed serum IgE levels. These results suggested that empagliflozin and canagliflozin may be applicable for the treatment of allergic asthma by suppressing immune responses.
