Biomarker evidence for distal tubular damage but cortical sparing in hospitalized diabetic patients with acute kidney injury (AKI) while on SGLT2 inhibitors

Biomarker evidence for distal tubular damage but cortical sparing in hospitalized diabetic patients with acute kidney injury (AKI) while on SGLT2 inhibitors

Background Inhibitors of sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 (SGLT2i) were found to improve renal outcome in diabetic patients in large prospective randomized trials. Yet, SGLT2i may acutely reduce kidney function through volume depletion, altered glomerular hemodynamics or intensified medullary hypoxia...
