Cardiometabolic and renal benefits of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors.
Review in Nature reviews. Endocrinology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 18 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
The therapeutic scope of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors has expanded beyond glycaemic regulation in the management of diabetes mellitus. Studies published in the past few years highlight their substantial effect on cardiovascular outcomes, notably in decreasing mortality and the need for heart failure-related hospitalization. These agents also lead to pronounced improvements in a range of renal outcomes. The primary actions of SGLT2 inhibition, glycosuria and natriuresis, are pivotal in enhancing glucose control, promoting weight loss and lowering blood pressure. These effects initiate a series of beneficial mechanisms: facilitating haemodynamic improvement by reducing interstitial volume, enhancing cardiac function, boosting energy efficiency through altered ketone body metabolism and mitigating inflammation and oxidative stress. Additional effects include heightened erythropoiesis, reduced hyperuricaemia and increased levels of angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 and angiotensin (1-7). SGLT2 inhibitors also attenuate sympathetic overactivity by modulating neurohumoral activation and renal afferent signalling, contributing to their cardioprotective and renoprotective profiles. This Review provides a comprehensive overview of the diverse mechanisms underpinning the cardiometabolic and renal effects of SGLT2 inhibitors, emphasizing their clinical relevance and therapeutic potential.
