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) exhibit cardiorenal protective effects that likely involve mechanisms aside from SGLT2 inhibition. Still, many details surrounding these clinically important pleiotropic effects remain unclear. We previously showed that several SGLT2-independent proximal tubular transport functions are inhibited by canagliflozin, but not empagliflozin. Here, we demonstrate a canagliflozin-specific reduction in Sgk1 abundance in both opossum kidney proximal tubule and mouse cortical collecting duct (mCCDcl1) cells, pointing to a possible underlying mechanism. Given the role of Sgk1 in the distal nephron, we hypothesized that canagliflozin would also inhibit epithelial Na+ channel (ENaC)-dependent Na+ transport. Canagliflozin inhibited ENaC-dependent Na+ transport (amiloride-sensitive short circuit current; ISC) in mCCDcl1 cells while empagliflozin had no effect. Selective membrane permeabilization revealed canagliflozin-induced inhibition of both apical conductance through ENaC and basolateral transport via the Na+/K+ ATPase. These effects were mimicked by the selective Sgk1 inhibitor, GSK650394. Surface labeling studies demonstrated reduced membrane localization of ENaC, but not Na+/K+ ATPase subunits, consistent with a mechanism involving Sgk1. Canagliflozin reduced ISC in the presence and absence of rotenone, suggesting inhibition occurs independently of effects on mitochondrial complex I, another known target of canagliflozin. ENaC activity in mouse distal colon was also inhibited by canagliflozin, confirming these effects in native tissue. We identify Na+ transport through ENaC and the Na+/K+ ATPase as novel targets of inhibition by canagliflozin, with Sgk1 as a likely upstream mechanistic component. Canagliflozin-specific effects on transport mediated via this mechanism may contribute to non-class effects of this drug observed clinically.
