Impact of canagliflozin on the cardiorenal effects of dietary sodium intake in type 2 diabetes: a post hoc analysis of the CREDENCE trial.
Trial report in Diabetologia, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It reports registered trial NCT02065791. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.

Abstract
aims/hypothesisSodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors provide cardiovascular and renal protection in type 2 diabetes and chronic kidney disease (CKD). Although both excess and restricted sodium intake are linked to adverse outcomes, the interaction of sodium intake with SGLT2 inhibitors has not been explored. This study aimed to examine how dietary sodium intake affects cardiorenal outcomes and whether canagliflozin modifies these effects.
methodsA post hoc analysis of the CREDENCE trial (median follow-up 2.6 years) was conducted in individuals with type 2 diabetes and CKD randomised to canagliflozin 100 mg or placebo. Using a validated formula, we estimated daily sodium intake from urine in 2573 participants, divided into low-normal sodium (LNS; n=1286) and high sodium (HS; n=1287) groups. Outcomes included the following: cardiovascular death or hospitalisation for heart failure; heart failure alone; a composite renal outcome; and all-cause death. Cox models were adjusted for confounders. Sodium intake was additionally analysed as a continuous variable to assess non-linearity.
resultsIn the placebo group, LNS intake increased the risk of heart failure/cardiovascular death vs HS (adjusted HR [adjHR] 1.56 [95% CI 1.10, 2.23]). Canagliflozin significantly reduced this risk in the LNS group (adjHR 0.48 [95% CI 0.33, 0.70]) but not in the HS group (adjHR 1.05 [95% CI 0.73, 1.53]). Similar patterns were seen for heart failure alone. Sodium intake had no effect on renal outcomes, while canagliflozin reduced renal risk in both the LNS group and the HS group. Neither sodium intake nor canagliflozin influenced all-cause mortality. Continuous modelling revealed a near-linear rise in heart failure/cardiovascular death risk as sodium intake decreased in placebo recipients, while this gradient was flattened with canagliflozin. CONCLUSIONS/
interpretationIn individuals with type 2 diabetes and CKD, LNS intake increases the risk of heart failure and cardiovascular death, while renal outcomes are unaffected by sodium intake. Canagliflozin mitigates the increased cardiovascular risk in individuals with LNS intake, while offering renal protection irrespective of dietary sodium.
