Abstract
Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors were initially developed for their glucose-lowering effects and have shown a modest glycaemic benefit in people with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). In the past decade, a series of large, robust clinical trials of these therapies have demonstrated striking beneficial effects for various care goals, transforming the chronic disease therapeutic landscape. Cardiovascular safety studies in people with T2DM demonstrated that SGLT2 inhibitors reduce cardiovascular death and hospitalization for heart failure. Subsequent trials in participants with heart failure with reduced or preserved left ventricular ejection fraction demonstrated that SGLT2 inhibitors have beneficial effects on heart failure outcomes. In dedicated kidney outcome studies, SGLT2 inhibitors reduced the incidence of kidney failure among participants with or without diabetes. Post hoc analyses have suggested a range of other benefits of these drugs in conditions as diverse as metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease, kidney stone prevention and anaemia. SGLT2 inhibitors have a generally favourable adverse effect profile, although patient selection and medication counselling remain important. Concerted efforts are needed to better integrate these agents into routine care and support long-term medication adherence to close the gap between clinical trial outcomes and those achieved in the real world.

Abstract
Although several randomized clinical trials have reported the potential benefit of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) in reducing blood pressure (BP), whether SGLT2i can reduce incident hypertension is unknown. We analyzed individuals with diabetes who were newly prescribed SGLT2i or dipeptidyl peptidase 4 inhibitors (DPP4i) in a large-scale epidemiological database. The primary outcome was the incidence of hypertension. A propensity score matching algorithm was employed to compare the subsequent development of hypertension between the SGLT2i and DPP4i groups. After propensity score matching, 5708 well-balanced pairs of SGLT2i and DPP4i users were identified. SGLT2i administration was associated with a reduced risk of hypertension (HR 0.91, 95% CI: 0.84-0.97). The advantage of SGLT2i use over DPP4i use for incident hypertension was generally consistent in several sensitivity analyses, and subgroup analyses showed that SGLT2i use was significantly associated with a lower risk of hypertension in men, patients with baseline HbA1c of <7.5%, and baseline systolic blood pressure ≥127 mmHg. Our investigation using nationwide real-world data demonstrated the potential advantage of SGLT2i over DPP4i in reducing the development of hypertension in individuals with diabetes.

Abstract
Obesity is a multifactorial chronic disease characterized by an excess of adipose tissue, affecting people of all ages. In the last 40 years, the incidence of overweight and obesity almost tripled worldwide. The accumulation of "visceral" adipose tissue increases with aging, leading to several cardio-metabolic consequences: from increased blood pressure to overt arterial hypertension, from insulin-resistance to overt type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), dyslipidemia, chronic kidney disease (CKD), and obstructive sleep apnea. The increasing use of innovative drugs, namely glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP1-RA) and sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2-i), is changing the management of obesity and its related cardiovascular complications significantly. These drugs, first considered only for T2DM treatment, are now used in overweight patients with visceral adiposity or obese patients, as obesity is no longer just a risk factor but a critical condition at the basis of common metabolic, cardiovascular, and renal diseases. An adipocentric vision and approach should become the cornerstone of visceral overweight and obesity integrated management and treatment, reducing and avoiding the onset of obesity-related multiple risk factors and their clinical complications. According to recent progress in basic and clinical research on adiposity, this narrative review aims to contribute to a novel clinical approach focusing on pathophysiological and therapeutic insights.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors decrease blood pressure in patients with type 2 diabetes, but the consistency and magnitude of blood pressure lowering with dapagliflozin in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) is unknown. We conducted a prespecified analysis of the DAPA-CKD trial to investigate the effect of dapagliflozin on systolic blood pressure (SBP) in patients with CKD, with and without type 2 diabetes. METHODS A total of 4304 adults with baseline estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) 25-75 mL/min/1.73m2 and urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR) 200-5000 mg/g were randomized to either dapagliflozin 10 mg or placebo once daily; median follow-up was 2.4 years. The primary endpoint was a composite of sustained ≥50% eGFR decline, end-stage kidney disease, or death from a kidney or cardiovascular cause. Change in SBP was a prespecified outcome. RESULTS Baseline mean (SD) SBP was 137.1 mmHg (17.4). By Week 2, dapagliflozin compared to placebo reduced SBP by 3.6 mmHg (95% CI 2.8-4.4 mmHg), an effect maintained over the duration of the trial (2.9 mmHg, 2.3-3.6 mmHg). Time-averaged reductions in SBP were 3.2 mmHg (2.5-4.0 mmHg) in patients with diabetes and 2.3 mmHg (1.2-3.4 mmHg) in patients without diabetes. The time-averaged effect of dapagliflozin on diastolic blood pressure (DBP) was 1.0 mmHg (0.6-1.4 mmHg); 0.8 mmHg (0.4-1.3 mmHg) in patients with diabetes and 1.4 mmHg (0.7-2.1 mmHg) in patients without diabetes. Benefits of dapagliflozin on the primary composite and secondary endpoints were evident across the spectrum of baseline SBP and DBP. CONCLUSION In patients with CKD and albuminuria, randomization to dapagliflozin was associated with modest reductions in systolic and diastolic BP.

Abstract
SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT SGLT2 inhibitors reduce risk of kidney progression, AKI, and cardiovascular disease, but the mechanisms of benefit are incompletely understood. Bioimpedance spectroscopy can estimate body water and fat mass. One quarter of the EMPA-KIDNEY bioimpedance substudy CKD population had clinically significant levels of bioimpedance-derived "Fluid Overload" at recruitment. Empagliflozin induced a prompt and sustained reduction in "Fluid Overload," irrespective of sex, diabetes, and baseline N-terminal pro B-type natriuretic peptide or eGFR. No significant effect on bioimpedance-derived fat mass was observed. The effects of SGLT2 inhibitors on body water may be one of the contributing mechanisms by which they mediate effects on cardiovascular risk. BACKGROUND CKD is associated with fluid excess that can be estimated by bioimpedance spectroscopy. We aimed to assess effects of sodium glucose co-transporter 2 inhibition on bioimpedance-derived "Fluid Overload" and adiposity in a CKD population. METHODS EMPA-KIDNEY was a double-blind placebo-controlled trial of empagliflozin 10 mg once daily in patients with CKD at risk of progression. In a substudy, bioimpedance measurements were added to the main trial procedures at randomization and at 2- and 18-month follow-up visits. The substudy's primary outcome was the study-average difference in absolute "Fluid Overload" (an estimate of excess extracellular water) analyzed using a mixed model repeated measures approach. RESULTS The 660 substudy participants were broadly representative of the 6609-participant trial population. Substudy mean baseline absolute "Fluid Overload" was 0.4±1.7 L. Compared with placebo, the overall mean absolute "Fluid Overload" difference among those allocated empagliflozin was -0.24 L (95% confidence interval [CI], -0.38 to -0.11), with similar sized differences at 2 and 18 months, and in prespecified subgroups. Total body water differences comprised between-group differences in extracellular water of -0.49 L (95% CI, -0.69 to -0.30, including the -0.24 L "Fluid Overload" difference) and a -0.30 L (95% CI, -0.57 to -0.03) difference in intracellular water. There was no significant effect of empagliflozin on bioimpedance-derived adipose tissue mass (-0.28 kg [95% CI, -1.41 to 0.85]). The between-group difference in weight was -0.7 kg (95% CI, -1.3 to -0.1). CONCLUSIONS In a broad range of patients with CKD, empagliflozin resulted in a sustained reduction in a bioimpedance-derived estimate of fluid overload, with no statistically significant effect on fat mass.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The EMPA-KIDNEY trial showed that empagliflozin reduced the risk of the primary composite outcome of kidney disease progression or cardiovascular death in patients with chronic kidney disease mainly through slowing progression. We aimed to assess how effects of empagliflozin might differ by primary kidney disease across its broad population. METHODS EMPA-KIDNEY, a randomised, controlled, phase 3 trial, was conducted at 241 centres in eight countries (Canada, China, Germany, Italy, Japan, Malaysia, the UK, and the USA). Patients were eligible if their estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was 20 to less than 45 mL/min per 1·73 m2, or 45 to less than 90 mL/min per 1·73 m2 with a urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (uACR) of 200 mg/g or higher at screening. They were randomly assigned (1:1) to 10 mg oral empagliflozin once daily or matching placebo. Effects on kidney disease progression (defined as a sustained ≥40% eGFR decline from randomisation, end-stage kidney disease, a sustained eGFR below 10 mL/min per 1·73 m2, or death from kidney failure) were assessed using prespecified Cox models, and eGFR slope analyses used shared parameter models. Subgroup comparisons were performed by including relevant interaction terms in models. EMPA-KIDNEY is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03594110. FINDINGS Between May 15, 2019, and April 16, 2021, 6609 participants were randomly assigned and followed up for a median of 2·0 years (IQR 1·5-2·4). Prespecified subgroupings by primary kidney disease included 2057 (31·1%) participants with diabetic kidney disease, 1669 (25·3%) with glomerular disease, 1445 (21·9%) with hypertensive or renovascular disease, and 1438 (21·8%) with other or unknown causes. Kidney disease progression occurred in 384 (11·6%) of 3304 patients in the empagliflozin group and 504 (15·2%) of 3305 patients in the placebo group (hazard ratio 0·71 [95% CI 0·62-0·81]), with no evidence that the relative effect size varied significantly by primary kidney disease (pheterogeneity=0·62). The between-group difference in chronic eGFR slopes (ie, from 2 months to final follow-up) was 1·37 mL/min per 1·73 m2 per year (95% CI 1·16-1·59), representing a 50% (42-58) reduction in the rate of chronic eGFR decline. This relative effect of empagliflozin on chronic eGFR slope was similar in analyses by different primary kidney diseases, including in explorations by type of glomerular disease and diabetes (p values for heterogeneity all >0·1). INTERPRETATION In a broad range of patients with chronic kidney disease at risk of progression, including a wide range of non-diabetic causes of chronic kidney disease, empagliflozin reduced risk of kidney disease progression. Relative effect sizes were broadly similar irrespective of the cause of primary kidney disease, suggesting that SGLT2 inhibitors should be part of a standard of care to minimise risk of kidney failure in chronic kidney disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hypertension is commonly observed in patients living with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Finding an optimal treatment regime remains challenging due to the complex bidirectional cause-and-effect relationship between hypertension and CKD. There remains variability in antihypertensive treatment practices. AIM To analyze data from the Salford Kidney Study database in relation to antihypertensive prescribing patterns amongst CKD patients. METHODS The Salford Kidney Study is an ongoing prospective study that has been recruiting CKD patients since 2002. All patients are followed up annually, and their medical records including the list of medications are updated until they reach study endpoints [starting on renal replacement therapy or reaching estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) expressed as mL/min/1.73 m2 ≤ 10 mL/min/1.73 m2, or the last follow-up date, or data lock on December 31, 2021, or death]. Data on antihypertensive prescription practices in correspondence to baseline eGFR, urine albumin-creatinine ratio, primary CKD aetiology, and cardiovascular disease were evaluated. Associations between patients who were prescribed three or more antihypertensive agents and their clinical outcomes were studied by Cox regression analysis. Kaplan-Meier analysis demonstrated differences in survival probabilities. RESULTS Three thousand two hundred and thirty non-dialysis-dependent CKD patients with data collected between October 2002 and December 2019 were included. The median age was 65 years. A greater proportion of patients were taking three or more antihypertensive agents with advancing CKD stages (53% of eGFR ≤ 15 mL/min/1.73 m2 vs 26% of eGFR ≥ 60 mL/min/1.73 m2, P < 0.001). An increased number of patients receiving more classes of antihypertensive agents was observed as the urine albumin-creatinine ratio category increased (category A3: 62% vs category A1: 40%, P < 0.001), with the upward trends particularly noticeable in the number of individuals prescribed renin angiotensin system blockers. The prescription of three or more antihypertensive agents was associated with all-cause mortality, independent of blood pressure control (hazard ratio: 1.15; 95% confidence interval: 1.04-1.27, P = 0.006). Kaplan-Meier analysis illustrated significant differences in survival outcomes between patients with three or more and those with less than three antihypertensive agents prescribed (log-rank, P < 0.001). CONCLUSION Antihypertensive prescribing patterns in the Salford Kidney Study based on CKD stage were consistent with expectations from the current United Kingdom National Institute of Health and Care Excellence guideline algorithm. Outcomes were poorer in patients with poor blood pressure control despite being on multiple antihypertensive agents. Continued research is required to bridge remaining variations in hypertension treatment practices worldwide.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Apparent treatment-resistant hypertension (aTRH) is prevalent and associated with adverse outcomes in heart failure with mildly reduced or preserved ejection fraction. Less is known about the potential role of sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibition in this high-risk population. In this post hoc analysis of the DELIVER trial (Dapagliflozin Evaluation to Improve the Lives of Patients with Preserved Ejection Fraction Heart Failure), we evaluated clinical profiles and treatment effects of dapagliflozin among participants with aTRH. METHODS DELIVER participants were categorized on the basis of baseline blood pressure (BP), with aTRH defined as BP ≥140/90 mm Hg (≥130/80 mm Hg if diabetes) despite treatment with 3 antihypertensive drugs including a diuretic. Nonresistant hypertension was defined as BP above threshold but not meeting aTRH criteria. Controlled BP was defined as BP under threshold. Incidence of the primary outcome (cardiovascular death or worsening heart failure event), key secondary outcomes, and safety events was assessed by baseline BP category. RESULTS Among 6263 DELIVER participants, 3766 (60.1%) had controlled BP, 1779 (28.4%) had nonresistant hypertension, and 718 (11.5%) had aTRH at baseline. Participants with aTRH had more cardiometabolic comorbidities and tended to have higher left ventricular ejection fraction and worse kidney function. Rates of the primary outcome were 8.7 per 100 patient-years in those with controlled BP, 8.5 per 100 patient-years in the nonresistant hypertension group, and 9.5 per 100 patient-years in the aTRH group. Relative treatment benefits of dapagliflozin versus placebo on the primary outcome were consistent across BP categories (Pinteraction=0.114). Participants with aTRH exhibited the greatest absolute reduction in the rate of primary events with dapagliflozin (4.1 per 100 patient-years) compared with nonresistant hypertension (2.7 per 100 patient-years) and controlled BP (0.8 per 100 patient-years). Irrespective of assigned treatment, participants with aTRH experienced a higher rate of reported vascular events, including myocardial infarction and stroke, over study follow-up. Dapagliflozin modestly reduced systolic BP (by ≈1 to 3 mm Hg) without increasing risk of hypotension, hypovolemia, or other serious adverse events, irrespective of BP category, but did not improve the proportion of participants with aTRH attaining goal BP over time. CONCLUSIONS aTRH was identified in >1 in 10 patients with heart failure and left ventricular ejection fraction >40% in DELIVER. Dapagliflozin consistently improved clinical outcomes and was well-tolerated, including among those with aTRH. REGISTRATION URL: https://www.clinicaltrials.gov; Unique identifier: NCT03619213.

Abstract
Despite the growing body of evidence regarding the beneficial cardiovascular effects of sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors, clinical data in individuals without diabetes, heart failure (HF), and/or chronic kidney disease (CKD) is limited. A systematic review of the literature was conducted in PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, and Google Scholar, from database inception until May 4, 2023, to explore new evidence of SGLT2 inhibitors' cardiovascular benefits in individuals without diabetes, HF, and/or CKD. A total of 1156 individuals from 14 studies (13 randomized controlled trials and 1 nonrandomized study) were included. The results showed the benefits of SGLT2 inhibitors on blood pressure, weight, and body mass index in this population with an acceptable safety profile. The current evidence supports the potential role of SGLT2 inhibitors as primary prevention in individuals without diabetes, HF, and/or CKD. This review may shed light on the use of SGLT2 inhibitors in conditions such as stage A HF and metabolic syndrome. The literature trend is going toward uncovering SGLT2 inhibitors' role in stage B HF, different types of myocardial infarction, and cardiac arrhythmias.

Abstract
AIM To assess the effects of canagliflozin on clinical outcomes and intermediate markers across population-specific body mass index (BMI) categories in the CANVAS Program and CREDENCE trial. METHODS Individual participant data were pooled and analysed in subgroups according to population-specific BMI. The main outcomes of interest were: major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE, a composite of nonfatal myocardial infarction, nonfatal stroke or cardiovascular death); composite renal outcome; and changes in systolic blood pressure (SBP), body weight, albuminuria and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) slope. Cox proportional hazards models and mixed-effect models were used. RESULTS A total of 14 520 participants were included, of whom 9378 (65%) had obesity. Overall, canagliflozin reduced the risk of MACE (hazard ratio [HR] 0.83, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.75 to 0.93) with no heterogeneity of treatment effect across BMI subgroups (Pheterogeneity = 0.76). Similarly, canagliflozin reduced composite renal outcomes (HR 0.75, 95% CI 0.66 to 0.84) with no heterogeneity across subgroups observed (Pheterogeneity = 0.72). The effects of canagliflozin on body weight and SBP differed across BMI subgroups (Pheterogeneity <0.01 and 0.04, respectively) but were consistent for albuminuria (Pheterogeneity = 0.60). Chronic eGFR slope with canagliflozin treatment was consistent across subgroups (Pheterogeneity >0.95). CONCLUSIONS The cardiovascular and renal benefits of canagliflozin and its safety profile were consistent across population-specific BMI subgroups for adults in the CANVAS Program and CREDENCE trial.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Sodium glucose transporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2 inhibitors) are increasingly prescribed due to their considerable benefits on clinical outcomes in people with diabetes, heart failure, and chronic kidney disease (CKD). Hypertension is a common comorbidity in each of these disease states, increasing risk of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. We herein review the effects of SGLT2 inhibitors on blood pressure in different populations, proposed mechanisms of action, and the contribution of blood pressure lowering to end-organ protection. RECENT FINDINGS A recognised effect of SGLT2 inhibitors in recent clinical trials is blood pressure lowering, with multiple postulated mechanisms. This advantageous effect was first identified in populations with type 2 diabetes mellitus, prior to expansion of these trials to broader cohorts. On our review, we identified that the blood pressure lowering effect of SGLT2 inhibitors appears to be a dose-independent class-effect, with a magnitude of effect comparable to that seen with a low dose hydrochlorothiazide. There is considerable evidence demonstrating that this effect is observed across populations including those with type 2 diabetes mellitus, chronic kidney disease, and resistant hypertension.

Abstract
Resistant hypertension (RHT) is typically defined as blood pressure that remains above guideline-directed targets despite the use of three anti-hypertensives, usually including a diuretic, at optimal or maximally tolerated doses. It is generally estimated to affect 10-30% of those diagnosed with hypertension, though the true incidence might be lower after one factor in the prevalence of non-adherence. Risk factors for its development include diabetes, obesity and other adverse lifestyle factors, and a diagnosis of RHT confers a greater risk of adverse cardiovascular outcomes, such as stroke, heart failure and mortality. It is essential to exclude pseudoresistance and secondary hypertension and to ensure non-pharmacologic management is optimised prior to consideration of fourth-line anti-hypertensive agents or advanced interventions, such as device therapies. In this review, we will cover the different definitions of RHT, along with the importance of careful diagnosis and management strategies, and discuss newer agents and research needs.

Abstract
Background Both hypertension (HTN) and diabetes are public health concerns in low- and middle-income countries, particularly in sub-Saharan African countries. The co-occurrence of HTN and diabetes is associated with an increased risk of mortality, morbidity, and reduced productivity in the working force. In Ethiopia, there is limited evidence on the co-occurrence of HTN and type 2 diabetes (T2DM). Therefore, this study was conducted to assess the co-occurrence of HTN and T2DM and their associated factors among Haramaya University employees in Eastern Ethiopia. Methods A cross-sectional survey was conducted among 1,200 employees at Haramaya University using a simple random sampling technique from December 2018 to February 2019. Demographic and behavioral factors were collected on a semi-structured questionnaire, followed by measurement of anthropometry and blood pressure. Blood glucose and lipid profile measurements were performed by collecting 6 ml of venous blood samples after 8 h of overnight fasting. Data were entered into EpiData 3.1 version and analyzed using Stata 16 software. Bivariable and multivariable logistic regressions were applied to observe the association between independent variables with co-occurrence of HPN and T2DM using odds ratio, 95% confidence interval (CI), and p-values of ≤ 0.05 were considered statistically significant. Results The prevalence of HTN and T2DM was 27.3 and 7.4%, respectively. The co-occurrence of HTN and T2DM was 3.8%. The study found that being older (AOR = 3.97; 95 % CI: 1.80-8.74), khat chewing (AOR = 2.76; 95 % CI: 1.23-6.18), body mass index ≥ 25 kg/m2 (AOR = 5.11; 95 % CI: 2.06-12.66), and sedentary behavior ≥8 h per day (AOR = 6.44; 95 % CI: 2.89-14.34) were statistically associated with co-occurrence of HTN and T2DM. On the other hand, consuming fruits and vegetables (AOR = 0.10; 95 % CI: 0.04-0.22) and a higher level of education (AOR = 0.39; 95% CI: 0.17-0.89) were negatively statistically associated with the co-occurrence of HTN and T2DM. Conclusion The co-occurrence of HTN and T2DM was prevalent among the study participants. This may create a substantial load on the healthcare system as an end result of increased demand for healthcare services. Therefore, rigorous efforts are needed to develop strategies for screening employees to tackle the alarming increase in HTN and T2DM in university employees.

Abstract
Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors lowers blood pressure (BP) and exert a salutary effect on the salt sensitivity of BP. This study aimed to examine the associations of SGLT2 genetic variants with salt sensitivity, longitudinal BP changes and the risk of incident hypertension in Baoji Salt-Sensitive Study. A total of 514 participants were recruited when the cohort was established in 2004, and 333 participants received a dietary intervention that consisted of a 3-day usual diet followed sequentially by a 7-day low-salt diet and a 7-day high-salt diet. The cohort was then followed up for 14 years to evaluate the longitudinal BP changes and development of hypertension. We found that SGLT2 SNP rs3813007 was significantly associated with the systolic BP (SBP) responses to the low-salt diet. Over the 14 years of follow-up, SNPs rs3116149 and rs3813008 were significantly associated with the longitudinal SBP changes, and SNPs rs3116149, rs3813008, rs3813007 in SGLT2 were significantly associated with incidence of hypertension. Furthermore, gene-based analyses revealed that SGLT2 was significantly associated with hypertension incidence. Our study suggests that SGLT2 genetic polymorphisms may be involved in salt sensitivity and development of hypertension.

Abstract
The cardioprotective effects of sodium-glucose cotransporter type 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors have been demonstrated in many studies. However, their benefits for end-stage kidney disease patients, particularly those on peritoneal dialysis, remain unclear. SGLT2 inhibition has shown peritoneal protective effects in some studies, but the mechanisms are still unknown. Herein, we investigated the peritoneal protective mechanisms of Canagliflozin in vitro by simulating hypoxia with CoCl2 in human peritoneal mesothelial cells (HPMCs) and rats by intraperitoneal injection of 4.25% peritoneal dialysate simulating chronic high glucose exposure. CoCl2 hypoxic intervention significantly increased HIF-1α abundance in HPMCs, activated TGF-β/p-Smad3 signaling, and promoted the production of fibrotic proteins (Fibronectin, COL1A2, and α-SMA). Meanwhile, Canagliflozin significantly improved the hypoxia of HPMCs, decreased HIF-1α abundance, inhibited TGF-β/p-Smad3 signaling, and decreased the expression of fibrotic proteins. Five-week intraperitoneal injection of 4.25% peritoneal dialysate remarkably increased peritoneal HIF-1α/TGF-β/p-Smad3 signaling and promoted peritoneal fibrosis and peritoneal thickening. At the same time, Canagliflozin significantly inhibited the HIF-1α/TGF-β/p-Smad3 signaling, prevented peritoneal fibrosis and peritoneal thickening, and improved peritoneal transportation and ultrafiltration. High glucose peritoneal dialysate increased the expression of peritoneal GLUT1, GLUT3 and SGLT2, all of which were inhibited by Canagliflozin. In conclusion, we showed that Canagliflozin could improve peritoneal fibrosis and function by ameliorating peritoneal hypoxia and inhibiting the HIF-1α/TGF-β/p-Smad3 signaling pathway, providing theoretical support for the clinical use of SGLT2 inhibitors in patients on peritoneal dialysis.

Abstract
AIMS To elucidate the association between baseline renal characteristics and the disparities in renal outcomes among patients with SGLT2i treatment. METHODS Pubmed, Medline, Embase, the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials and Clinicaltrial.gov were searched from inception to November 2022. Event-driven randomized controlled trials of SGLT2i with reports of renal outcomes were included. Sensitivity analyses of prespecified eGFR and UACR subgroups were conducted. RESULTS Generally, compared with placebo, the use of SGLT2i was associated with improved renal prognosis (HR = 0.64, 95%CI 0.59-0.70). The magnitude of risk reductions in composite renal outcomes between SGLT2i versus placebo was comparable among different eGFR stratifications (normal renal function: HR = 0.49, 95%CI 0.31-0.79; mild renal impairment: HR = 0.57, 95%CI 0.48-0.68; moderate renal impairment: HR = 0.70, 95%CI 0.63-0.78; severe renal impairment: HR = 0.72, 95%CI 0.62-0.84; P for subgroup difference = 0.09). However, renal benefits seemd to be more prominent in normal to mildly increased albuminuria stratum (HR = 0.51, 95%CI 0.39-0.66) and severely increased albuminuria stratum (HR = 0.57, 95%CI 0.47-0.68), when compared with moderately increased albuminuria stratum (HR = 0.79, 95%CI 0.65-0.96; P for subgroup difference = 0.01). CONCLUSIONS Generally, the use of SGLT2i was consistently associated with decreased risk of renal events in all prespecified eGFR and albuminuria spectrums, even in patients with substantial renal impairment. The renal benefits of SGLT2i seemed to be independent of baseline eGFR, while the risk reduction in renal events was more profound among patients with mildly increased albuminuria or severely increased albuminuria.

Abstract
Hypertension is the leading cause of death in human being, which shows high prevalence and associated complications that increase the mortality and morbidity. Controlling blood pressure (BP) is very important because it is well known that lowering high BP effectively improves patients' prognosis. This review aims to provide a focused update of the 2018 Korean Hypertension Society Guidelines for the management of hypertension. The importance of ambulatory BP and home BP monitoring was further emphasized not only for the diagnosis but also for treatment target. By adopting corresponding BPs, the updated guideline recommended out-of-office BP targets for both standard and intensive treatment. Based on the consensus on corresponding BPs and Systolic Blood Pressure Intervention Trial (SPRINT) revisit, the updated guidelines recommended target BP in high-risk patients below 130/80 mmHg and it applies to hypertensive patients with three or more additional cardiovascular risk factors, one or more risk factors with diabetes, or hypertensive patients with subclinical organ damages, coronary or vascular diseases, heart failure, chronic kidney disease with proteinuria, and cerebral lacunar infarction. Cerebral infarction and chronic kidney disease are also high-risk factors for cardiovascular disease. However, due to lack of evidence, the target BP was generally determined at < 140/90 mmHg in patients with those conditions as well as in the elderly. Updated contents regarding the management of hypertension in special situations are also discussed.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disorder characterized by increased serum glucose due to errors in insulin production or response. The prevalence of diabetes mellitus has continued to rise globally over the years, with roughly 7079 persons per 100,000 expected to be impacted by 2030. A vast number of patients with diabetes mellitus experience unfavorable side effects such as weight gain, hypoglycemia, and hepatorenal toxicity from the several diabetic medications available. These adverse effects may result in life-threatening consequences with a high likelihood of occurrence; therefore, ongoing efforts continue to develop medications with improved tolerability and better glycemic control. Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RA) and sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT-2i) are examples of new innovative targeted therapies to manage diabetes mellitus and potentially improve cardiorenal conditions. This review article details the specific mechanisms of action, potential side effects, and cardiorenal benefits of GLP-1RA and SGLT-2i therapies to fully understand their roles in combating type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D).

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Hypertension is a well-established risk factor for cardiovascular (CV) events in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD), heart failure, obesity, and diabetes. Despite the usual prescribed antihypertensive therapies, many patients fail to achieve the recommended blood pressure (BP) targets. AREAS COVERED This review summarizes the clinical BP-lowering data presented in major CV and kidney outcome trials for sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors, as well as smaller dedicated BP trials in high-risk individuals with and without diabetes. We have also highlighted potential mechanisms that may contribute to the antihypertensive effects of SGLT2 inhibitors, including natriuresis and hemodynamic changes, a loop diuretic-like effect, and alterations in vascular physiology. EXPERT OPINION The antihypertensive properties of SGLT2 inhibitors are generally modest but may be larger in certain patient populations. SGLT2 inhibitors may have an additional role as an adjunctive BP-lowering therapy in patients with hypertension at high risk of CV disease or kidney disease.

Abstract
Background The canagliflozin and renal endpoints in diabetes with established nephropathy clinical evaluation (CREDENCE) and dapagliflozin and prevention of adverse outcomes in chronic kidney disease (DAPA-CKD) trials have demonstrated significant kidney benefits with sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors. SGLT2 inhibitors are now standard of care for patients with diabetic kidney disease and have also been shown to be effective in those with albuminuric CKD with or without diabetes. Objective We sought to determine how many patients in nephrology care in British Columbia, Canada, would have been eligible for those trials, to compare rates of outcomes, and to estimate cost avoidance arising from widespread use of SGLT2 inhibitors in this cohort. Study design Retrospective cohort study. Setting British Columbia, Canada. Participants CKD patients followed in the Kidney Care Clinics in British Columbia. Measurements We compared the outcomes of kidney failure, sustained estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) <15 mL/min/1.73 m2, dialysis, transplant, death from any cause, and doubling of serum creatinine. We also compared the composite outcome of kidney failure and doubling of serum creatinine. Methods The cohort was derived using a provincial database by combining the inclusion criteria of CREDENCE and DAPA-CKD trials. We included adult patients aged ≥18 years, urine albumin to creatinine ratio (UACR) ≥20 mg/mmol, and eGFR between 25 and 90 mL/min/1.73 m2, between April 1, 2014 and March 31, 2017. The primary outcome was compared with the outcomes experienced in the placebo arms of CREDENCE and DAPA-CKD. The composite outcome stratified by eGFR categories were compared in the British Columbia cohort and the CREDENCE trial. Cost avoidance was estimated based on the number needed to treat to prevent one instance of kidney failure. Results A total of 17.5% (3138/17 963) of patients were eligible, resulting in a cohort with a mean age of 69.7 years and 38% women. The eGFR slope of the British Columbia cohort was -4.21 ± 0.47 mL/min. The mean eGFR was 37.0 mL/min/1.73 m2, median UACR was 55.3 mg/mmol, and use of renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system inhibitors was 56.6%. The British Columbia cohort experienced nearly double the outcomes of kidney failure, death from any cause, and doubling of serum creatinine than the placebo arms of CREDENCE and DAPA-CKD. When stratified by eGFR, the British Columbia cohort and the CREDENCE placebo arm had similar event rates for those with an eGFR <45 mL/min but there were still higher rates of outcome in the greater than 45 mL/min eGFR groups in the British Columbia cohort. Treating the British Columbia cohort with canagliflozin could lead to net cost avoidance of $2.31 million over 2.6 years. Limitations The database only captures those referred to the Kidney Care Clinics by nephrologists, which may lead to selection bias of higher risk patients in the British Columbia cohort. The cost avoidance analysis was a limited high-level analysis. Conclusions The British Columbia cohort represents a high-risk group in whom implementation of the use of SGLT2 inhibitors may well improve outcomes and reduce health care system costs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The clinical benefit of blood pressure (BP) reduction in individuals with diabetes has not been fully elucidated. We sought to identify the clinical impact of BP reduction on incident cardiovascular disease in people having diabetes and hypertension. METHODS We conducted a retrospective cohort study including 754,677 individuals (median age 47 years, 75.8 % men) with stage 1/stage 2 hypertension. Participants were categorized using fasting plasma glucose (FPG) at baseline as normal FPG (FPG < 100 mg/dL) (n = 517,372), prediabetes (FPG:100-125 mg/dL) (n = 197,836), or diabetes mellitus (FPG ≥126 mg/dL) (n = 39,469). The primary outcome was heart failure (HF), and the secondary outcomes included ischemic heart disease (IHD) including myocardial infarction and angina pectoris, and stroke. RESULTS Over a mean follow-up of 1111 ± 909 days, 18,429 HFs, 17,058 IHDs, and 8,795 strokes were recorded. Reduction in BP of< 120/80 mmHg at 1year was associated with a lower risk of developing HF (HR:0.77, 95% CI:0.72-0.82), IHD (HR:0.84, 95% CI:0.79-0.89), and stroke (HR:0.75, 95% CI:0.69-0.82) in individuals with normal FPG, whereas it was not associated with a risk of developing HF (HR:0.98, 95% CI:0.81-1.17) and stroke (HR:0.82, 95% CI:0.62-1.09) in those with DM. Interaction analyses showed that the influence of BP reduction on incident HF was attenuated with people with prediabetes or DM. A multitude of sensitivity analyses confirmed our results. CONCLUSIONS The association of BP reduction with the risk of developing HF was attenuated with deteriorating glucose tolerance. The optimal management strategy for hypertensive people with prediabetes or DM for the prevention of developing cardiovascular disease (particularly HF) is needed to be established.

Abstract
Diabetes, hypertension, and aging are major contributors to cardiovascular and chronic kidney disease (CKD). Sodium/glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors have become a preferred treatment for type II diabetic patients since they have cardiorenal protective effects. However, most elderly diabetic patients also have hypertension, and the effects of SGLT2 inhibitors have not been studied in hypertensive diabetic patients or animal models. The present study examined if controlling hyperglycemia with empagliflozin, or given in combination with lisinopril, slows the progression of renal injury in hypertensive diabetic rats. Studies were performed using hypertensive streptozotocin-induced type 1 diabetic Dahl salt-sensitive (STZ-SS) rats and in deoxycorticosterone-salt hypertensive type 2 diabetic nephropathy (T2DN) rats. Administration of empagliflozin alone or in combination with lisinopril reduced blood glucose, proteinuria, glomerular injury, and renal fibrosis in STZ-SS rats without altering renal blood flow (RBF) or glomerular filtration rate (GFR). Blood pressure and renal hypertrophy were also reduced in rats treated with empagliflozin and lisinopril. Administration of empagliflozin alone or in combination with lisinopril lowered blood glucose, glomerulosclerosis, and renal fibrosis but had no effect on blood pressure, kidney weight, or proteinuria in hypertensive T2DN rats. RBF was not altered in any of the treatment groups, and GFR was elevated in empagliflozin-treated hypertensive T2DN rats. These results indicate that empagliflozin is highly effective in controlling blood glucose levels and slows the progression of renal injury in both hypertensive type 1 and type 2 diabetic rats, especially when given in combination with lisinopril to lower blood pressure.

Abstract
Abstract
Arterial hypertension is a leading cause of death globally. Due to ageing, the rising incidence of obesity, and socioeconomic and environmental changes, its incidence increases worldwide. Hypertension commonly coexists with Type 2 diabetes, obesity, dyslipidaemia, sedentary lifestyle, and smoking leading to risk amplification. Blood pressure lowering by lifestyle modifications and antihypertensive drugs reduce cardiovascular (CV) morbidity and mortality. Guidelines recommend dual- and triple-combination therapies using renin–angiotensin system blockers, calcium channel blockers, and/or a diuretic. Comorbidities often complicate management. New drugs such as angiotensin receptor-neprilysin inhibitors, sodium–glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors, glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists, and non-steroidal mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists improve CV and renal outcomes. Catheter-based renal denervation could offer an alternative treatment option in comorbid hypertension associated with increased sympathetic nerve activity. This review summarises the latest clinical evidence for managing hypertension with CV comorbidities.

Abstract
Abstract
Objective
To evaluate the cardiovascular and renal benefits of finerenone, sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) and glucagonlike peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RA) in patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) with network meta-analysis.
Methods
Systematic literature searches were conducted of PubMed, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, Medline and Embase covering January 1, 2000 to December 30, 2021. Randomized control trials (RCTs) comparing finerenone, SGLT-2i and GLP-1 RA in diabetics with CKD were selected. We performed a network meta-analysis to compare the two drugs and finerenone indirectly. Results were reported as risk ratio (RR) with corresponding 95% confidence interval (CI).
Results
18 RCTs involving 51,496 patients were included. Finerenone reduced the risk of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), renal outcome and hospitalization for heart failure (HHF) (RR [95% CI]; 0.88 [0.80–0.97], 0.86 [0.79–0.93], 0.79 [0.67,0.92], respectively). SGLT-2i were associated with reduced risks of MACE (RR [95% CI]; 0.84 [0.78–0.90]), renal outcome (RR [95% CI]; 0.67 [0.60–0.74], HHF (RR [95% CI]; 0.60 [0.53–0.68]), all-cause death (ACD) (RR [95% CI]; 0.89 [0.81–0.91]) and cardiovascular death (CVD) (RR [95% CI]; 0.86 [0.77–0.96]) compared to placebo. GLP-1 RA were associated with a lower risk of MACE (RR [95% CI]; 0.86 [0.78–0.94]). SGLT2i had significant effect in comparison to finerenone (finerenone vs SGLT2i: RR [95% CI]; 1.29 [1.13–1.47], 1.31 [1.07–1.61], respectively) and GLP-1 RA (GLP-1 RA vs SGLT2i: RR [95% CI]; 1.36 [1.16–1.59], 1.49 [1.18–1.89], respectively) in renal outcome and HHF.
Conclusions
In patients with T2DM and CKD, SGLT2i, GLP-1 RA and finerenone were comparable in MACE, ACD and CVD. SGLT2i significantly decreased the risk of renal events and HHF compared with finerenone and GLP-1 RA. Among GLP-1 RA, GLP-1 analogues showed significant effect in reducing cardiovascular events compared with exendin-4 analogues.

Abstract
Progress in the treatment of diabetic kidney disease (DKD) has been modest since the early trials on renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system inhibitors (RAASis). Although sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) have revolutionized the management of DKD by lowering proteinuria and protecting organs, other novel treatment approaches with good evidence and efficacy that can be used in conjunction with a RAASi or SGLT2i in managing DKD have emerged in the past few years. This review discusses the evidence for glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist, selective mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist, and selective endothelin A receptor antagonist, emerging treatment options for DKD beyond SGLT2 inhibition.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the efficacy and safety of finerenone and sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) on reducing new-onset of atrial fibrillation (AF) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and chronic kidney disease (CKD). METHOD We searched the PubMed, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, Medline and Embase covering January 1, 2000 to April 30, 2022. Randomized control trials comparing finerenone or SGLT2i with placebo in patients with T2DM and CKD were selected. Results were reported as risk ratio (RR) with corresponding 95% confidence interval (CI). RESULTS A total of 10 studies (35,841 patients) were included. Finerenone (RR 0.79, 95% CI 0.62-0.99) was associated with a decreased risk of AF compared with placebo, while SGLT2i were not. SGLT2i were associated with a decreased risk of hospitalization for heart failure (RR 0.78, 95% CI 0.63-0.98) compared with finerenone. They were comparable in AF(RR 0.84, 95% CI 0.48,1.46), major adverse cardiovascular events(MACE) (RR 0.93, 95% CI 0.81,1.06) and nonfatal stroke(RR 0.78, 95% CI 0.58,1.05). They both showed no significant risk of adverse events compared with placebo. CONCLUSION There was no significant difference in the reduction of new-onset of atrial fibrillation between Finerenone and SGLT2i based on the indirect comparisons of currently available clinical studies. The large-sampled head-to-head trials was needed for the more precise conclusion.

Abstract
The global burden of chronic kidney disease (CKD) has increased significantly over the past few decades. This reflects the rising prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and hypertension, two leading causes of CKD. Hypertension, which can also be a complication of CKD, accelerates renal disease progression and augments cardiovascular risk, especially in individuals with diabetic kidney disease. Hence, blood pressure (BP) reduction is a vital component of CKD management. Sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors are a relatively novel class of medications developed to treat T2DM by inducing glycosuria and hence, lowering glycaemia. Additionally, SGLT2 inhibitors are antihypertensive, renoprotective and cardioprotective, even in individuals without T2DM, making them effective therapeutic agents for CKD. Another therapy that has proven to be antihypertensive, renoprotective and cardioprotective is dietary sodium restriction. This review evaluates the potential combined benefits of SGLT2 inhibition and dietary sodium restriction on the BP and renal parameters of individuals with CKD.

Abstract
Hypertension and chronic kidney disease are closely linked. Patients with chronic kidney disease have hypertension almost universally and uncontrolled hypertension accelerates the decline in kidney function. The pathophysiology of hypertension in chronic kidney disease is complex, but is largely related to reduced nephron mass, sympathetic nervous system overactivation, involvement of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system, and generalized endothelial dysfunction. Consensus guidelines for blood pressure targets have adopted a blood pressure <120/80 mm Hg in native chronic kidney disease and <130/80 mm Hg in kidney transplant recipients. Guidelines also strongly advocate for renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system blockade as the first-line therapy.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Despite the significant contribution of hypertension to the global burden of disease, disease control remains poor worldwide. Considering this unmet clinical need, several new antihypertensive drugs with novel mechanisms of action are under development. AREAS COVERED The present review summarizes the recent advances in the development of emerging pharmacological agents for the management of hypertension. The latest technological innovations in the design of optimized formulations of available antihypertensive drugs and the potential role of the modification of intestinal microbiota to improve blood pressure (BP) control are also covered. EXPERT OPINION Significant efforts have been made to develop new antihypertensive agents with novel actions that target the main mechanisms involved in resistant hypertension. Sacubitril/valsartan may emerge as a potential first-line drug due to its superiority over renin angiotensin system inhibitors, and SGLT2 inhibitors can reduce BP in difficult-to-control hypertensive patients with type 2 diabetes. In addition, firibastat and aprocitentan may expand the therapeutic options for resistant hypertension by novel mechanism of actions. Since gut dysbiosis not only leads to hypertension but also causes direct target organ damage, prebiotics and probiotics could represent a potential strategy to prevent or reduce the development of hypertension and to contribute to BP control.

Abstract
Diabetes is the leading cause of kidney failure and specifically, diabetic kidney disease (DKD) occurs in up to 30% of all diabetic patients. Kidney disease attributed to diabetes is a major contributor to the global burden of the disease in terms of clinical and socio-economic impact, not only because of the risk of progression to End-Stage Kidney Disease (ESKD), but also because of the associated increase in cardiovascular (CV) risk. Despite the introduction of novel treatments that allow us to reduce the risk of future outcomes, a striking residual cardiorenal risk has been reported. This risk is explained by both the heterogeneity of DKD and the individual variability in response to nephroprotective treatments. Strategies that have been proposed to improve DKD patient care are to develop novel biomarkers that classify with greater accuracy patients with respect to their future risk (prognostic) and biomarkers that are able to predict the response to nephroprotective treatment (predictive). In this review, we summarize the principal prognostic biomarkers of type 1 and type 2 diabetes and the novel markers that help clinicians to individualize treatments and the basis of the characteristics that predict an optimal response.

Abstract
Background: Dapagliflozin improved heart failure and kidney outcomes in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) with or at high risk for cardiovascular disease in the DECLARE-TIMI 58 trial. Here, the aim was to analyze efficacy and safety of dapagliflozin stratified according to baseline systolic blood pressure (SBP). Methods: The DECLARE-TIMI 58 trial randomized patients with T2DM and either prior atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) or ASCVD risk factors to dapagliflozin or placebo. Patients were categorized by baseline SBP levels: < 120, 120-129, 130-139, 140-159 and ≥ 160 mmHg (respectively, normal, elevated, stage 1, stage 2 and severe hypertension). Efficacy outcomes of interest were hospitalization for heart failure (HHF) and a renal-specific composite outcome (sustained decrease in estimated glomerular filtration rate by 40%, progression to end-stage renal disease or renal death). Safety outcomes included symptoms of volume depletion, lower extremity amputations and acute kidney injury. Results: The trial comprised 17,160 patients; mean age of 64.0 ± 6.8 years ; 37.4% women; median duration of T2DM 11 years; 40.6% with prevalent CVD. Overall, dapagliflozin reduced SBP by 2.4 mmHg (95% CI 1.9-2.9; p < 0.0001) compared with placebo at 48 months. The beneficial effects of dapagliflozin on HHF and renal outcomes were consistent across all baseline SBP categories, with no evidence of modification of treatment effect (p-interactions = 0.28 and 0.52, respectively). Among normotensive patients, the HR´s were 0.66 (95% CI 0.42-1.05) and 0.39 (95% CI 0.19-0.78), respectively for HHF and the renal specific outcome. Events of volume depletion, amputation and acute kidney injury did not differ with dapagliflozin overall or within any baseline SBP group. Conclusions: In patients with T2DM with or at high ASCVD risk, dapagliflozin reduced risk for HHF and renal outcomes regardless of baseline systolic blood pressure, with no difference in adverse events of interest at any level of baseline SBP. These results indicate that dapagliflozin provides important cardiorenal benefit in patients with T2DM at high ASCVD risk, independent of baseline blood pressure.

Abstract
Background Sodium–glucose co-transport 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) lower blood pressure (BP) in normotensive subjects and in hypertensive and normotensive diabetic and non-diabetic patients. However, the mechanisms of these BP changes are not fully understood. Therefore, we examined the clinical and biochemical determinants of the BP response to empagliflozin based on 24-h ambulatory BP monitoring. Methods In this post-hoc analysis of a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study examining the renal effects of empagliflozin 10 mg vs. placebo in untreated normotensive non-diabetic subjects, the 1-month changes in 24 h ambulatory BP were analyzed in 39 subjects (13 placebo/26 empagliflozin) in regard to changes in biochemical and hormonal parameters. Results At 1 month, empagliflozin 10 mg decreased 24-h systolic (SBP) and diastolic (DBP) BP significantly by −5 ± 7 mmHg (p < 0.001) and −2 ± 6 mmHg (p = 0.03). The effect on SBP and DBP was more pronounced during nighttime (resp. −6 ± 11 mmHg, p = 0.004; −4 ± 7 mmHg, p = 0.007). The main determinants of daytime and nighttime SBP and DBP responses were baseline BP levels (for daytime SBP: coefficient −0.5; adj. R2: 0.36; p = 0.0007; for night-time SBP: coefficient −0.6; adj. R2: 0.33; p = 0.001). Although empaglifozin induced significant biochemical changes, none correlated with blood pressure changes including urinary sodium, lithium, glucose and urate excretion and free water clearance. Plasma renin activity and plasma aldosterone levels increased significantly at 1 month suggesting plasma volume contraction, while plasma metanephrine and copeptin levels remained the same. Renal resistive indexes did not change with empagliflozin. Conclusion SGLT2 inhibition lowers daytime and nighttime ambulatory systolic and diastolic BP in normotensive non-diabetic subjects. Twenty-four jour changes are pronounced and comparable to those described in diabetic or hypertensive subjects. Baseline ambulatory BP was the only identified determinant of systolic and diastolic BP response. This suggests that still other factors than sustained glycosuria or proximal sodium excretion may contribute to the resetting to lower blood pressure levels with SGLT2 inhibition.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Severe insulin resistance syndromes such as lipodystrophy lead to diabetes that is challenging to control. This study explores safety and efficacy of sodium glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) in a series of 12 patients with severe insulin resistance due to partial lipodystrophy. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Retrospective chart review of safety (N=22) and efficacy (N=12) of SGLT2i in patients with partial lipodystrophy at our institution. Efficacy outcomes included HbA1c, insulin dose, fasting plasma glucose, C-peptide, lipid profile, 24-hour urinary glucose excretion, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), and blood pressure before and after 12 months of SGLT2i treatment. RESULTS HbA1c decreased after SGLT2i (baseline 9.2±2.0% [77.6±21.2 mmol/mol]; 12 months 8.4±1.8% [67.9±19.6 mmol/mol]; p=0.028). Significant reductions were also noted in systolic (p=0.011) and diastolic blood pressure (p=0.013). There was a trend toward decreased C-peptide (P=0.071). Fasting plasma glucose, lipids, and eGFR remained unchanged. Adverse effects included extremity pain, hypoglycemia, diabetic ketoacidosis (in a patient who was non-adherent to insulin), pancreatitis (in a patient with prior pancreatitis), and fungal infections. CONCLUSIONS SGLT2i reduced HbA1c in patients with partial lipodystrophy, with a similar safety profile compared to type 2 diabetes. After individual consideration of risks and benefits, SGLT2i may be considered as part of the treatment armamentarium for these rare forms of diabetes, but larger trials are needed to confirm these findings.

Abstract
Resistant hypertension is common and known to be a risk factor for cardiovascular events, including stroke, myocardial infarction, heart failure, and cardiovascular mortality, as well as adverse renal events, including chronic kidney disease and end-stage kidney disease. This review will discuss the definition of resistant hypertension as well as the most recent evidence regarding its diagnosis, evaluation, and management. The issue of medication non-adherence and its association with apparent treatment-resistant hypertension will be addressed. Non-pharmacological interventions for the treatment of resistant hypertension will be reviewed. Particular emphasis will be placed on pharmacological interventions, highlighting the role of mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists and sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors and device therapy, including renal denervation, baroreceptor activation or modulation, and central arteriovenous fistula creation.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Over the past few decades, multiple glucose lowering therapies have been developed, but until now, no single drug has proven to both decrease cardiovascular mortality and improve renal outcomes. The purpose of this review is to outline the key findings of the recent major outcome clinical trials on SGLT2 inhibitors, review the indications for their use, and improve adoption of these medications in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). RECENT FINDINGS Recent studies have shown a benefit for SGLT2 inhibitors in patients with heart failure (HF) and kidney disease both in the presence and absence of T2DM. Additional benefits also include improvements in fluid status, blood pressure, serum uric acid levels, and weight loss. Available data suggests that SGLT2 inhibitors should be used in all eligible patients with HFrEF and/or CKD with albuminuria to decrease progression of CKD, hospitalizations for heart failure, major atherosclerotic cardiovascular events, and cardiovascular death, with and without T2DM.

Abstract
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) and heart failure affect many people worldwide. Despite the availability of pharmacological treatments, both diseases remain associated with considerable morbidity and mortality. After observations that sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors - originally developed as glucose-lowering agents - improved cardiovascular and renal outcomes in patients with type 2 diabetes, dedicated trials were initiated to evaluate the cardiovascular and kidney protective effects in patients with CKD or heart failure. The results of these clinical trials and subsequent detailed analyses have shown that the benefits of SGLT2 inhibitors are consistent across many patient subgroups, including those with and without type 2 diabetes, at different stages of CKD, and in patients with heart failure with preserved or reduced ejection fraction. In addition, post-hoc analyses revealed that SGLT2 inhibitors reduce the risk of anaemia and hyperkalaemia in patients with CKD. With respect to their safety, SGLT2 inhibitors are generally well tolerated. More specifically, no increased risk of hypoglycaemia has been observed in patients with CKD or heart failure without diabetes and they do not increase the risk of acute kidney injury. SGLT2 inhibitors therefore provide clinicians with an exciting new treatment option for patients with CKD and heart failure.

Abstract
There is currently an unmet need for effective treatment of chronic kidney disease (CKD) that slows disease progression, prevents development of end-stage kidney disease and cardiovascular disease, and prolongs survival of patients with CKD. In the last 20 years, the only agents to show a reduction in the risk of CKD progression in patients with and without type 2 diabetes (T2D) were angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors and angiotensin receptor blockers, but neither drug class has provided a decreased risk of all-cause mortality in patients with CKD and evidence for their use in patients with CKD without T2D is relatively limited. This review discusses the mechanisms underlying the progression of CKD, its associated risk factors, and summarizes the potential therapeutic approaches for managing CKD. There is increasing evidence to support the role of sodium–glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitor therapy in patients with CKD, including data from the designated kidney outcome trials in patients with T2D (CREDENCE) and in patients with or without T2D (DAPA-CKD). These studies showed a significant reduction in the risk of CKD progression with canagliflozin (in patients with T2D) or dapagliflozin (in patients with or without T2D), respectively, with DAPA-CKD being the first trial to show a reduced risk of all-cause mortality. On the basis of these data, individualized treatment with SGLT2 inhibitors represents a promising therapeutic option for patients with diabetic and nondiabetic CKD to slow disease progression. Chronic kidney disease is a common condition in which the ability of the kidneys to work correctly gradually decreases over time. It is a major risk factor for a number of other serious conditions, including cardiovascular disease and end-stage kidney disease, and for early death. Several treatments have been shown to reduce the risk of chronic kidney disease progressing (particularly in patients with type 2 diabetes), but there have been no treatments that slow chronic kidney disease progression, prevent the development of end-stage kidney disease and cardiovascular disease, and prolong survival. However, evidence is now accumulating to suggest that some drugs initially developed to treat other diseases may be potential treatments for chronic kidney disease. The sodium–glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors, which are commonly used to lower blood sugar levels in people with type 2 diabetes, are examples of such drugs. Data from two studies of sodium–glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors—the CREDENCE study of canagliflozin in patients with chronic kidney disease and type 2 diabetes and the DAPA-CKD study of dapagliflozin in patients with chronic kidney disease with or without type 2 diabetes—have shown that these drugs reduce the risk of chronic kidney disease progression in these patients. More importantly, the DAPA-CKD study showed that patients with chronic kidney disease who were taking dapagliflozin had a reduced risk of death compared with placebo. These results show that sodium–glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors are slowing the progression of chronic kidney disease and improve overall outcomes for properly selected patients.

Abstract
Atherosclerosis-caused cardiovascular diseases (CVD) are the leading cause of mortality in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors are effective oral drugs for the treatment of T2DM patients. Multiple pre-clinical and clinical studies have indicated that SGLT2 inhibitors not only reduce blood glucose but also confer benefits with regard to body weight, insulin resistance, lipid profiles and blood pressure. Recently, some cardiovascular outcome trials have demonstrated the safety and cardiovascular benefits of SGLT2 inhibitors beyond glycemic control. The SGLT2 inhibitors empagliflozin, canagliflozin, dapagliflozin and ertugliflozin reduce the rates of major adverse cardiovascular events and of hospitalization for heart failure in T2DM patients regardless of CVD. The potential mechanisms of SGLT2 inhibitors on cardioprotection may be involved in improving the function of vascular endothelial cells, suppressing oxidative stress, inhibiting inflammation and regulating autophagy, which further protect from the progression of atherosclerosis. Here, we summarized the pre-clinical and clinical evidence of SGLT2 inhibitors on cardioprotection and discussed the potential molecular mechanisms of SGLT2 inhibitors in preventing the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis and CVD.

Abstract
Patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D) are at increased risk of cardiovascular (CV) disease. Sodium glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors, also known as gliflozins, are a class of medications used to treat T2D by preventing the reabsorption of glucose filtered through the kidney and thereby facilitating glucose excretion in the urine. Over the past 5 years, many cardiovascular outcome trials (CVOTs) have evaluated the safety and efficacy of SGLT2 inhibitors in preventing CV events. The results of 7 CVOTs have provided solid evidence that the use of SGLT2 in patients with T2D and at high CV risk significantly reduced the risk of death from CV causes. Moreover, in patient with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction, regardless of the presence or absence of T2D, SGLT2 inhibitors use significantly reduced the risk of worsening heart failure and death from CV causes. Although the exact mechanism of the cardiorenal benefit of SGLT2 inhibitors is still unknown, studies have shown that the beneficial effect of these drugs cannot be exclusively explained by their glucose lowering effect, and several possible mechanisms have been proposed. This review will explore the changing role of SGLT2 inhibitors from a diabetes drug to clinical practice guideline-supported therapy for the prevention and treatment of CV diseases, including heart failure.

Abstract
Obesity-related glomerulopathy (ORG) and other obesity-associated kidney diseases pose a major challenge to the treating nephrologist. We review the benefits of weight loss and optimal management of ORG and kidney disease in the setting of obesity. Therapeutic strategies in ORG were limited mainly in the past to weight loss through lifestyle interventions and bariatric surgery, antihypertensive treatment, and renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system blockade. Current approaches to obtain the desired weight loss include novel pharmacologic therapies that have been approved for the treatment of diabetes while offering kidney protection, such as sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors and glucagon-like peptide-1-receptor agonists. This review focuses on the nephroprotective role of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system blockade and of these new pharmacologic agents, and on the renal effects of bariatric surgery in chronic kidney disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Empagliflozin reduces the risk of cardiovascular death or heart failure (HF) hospitalization in patients with reduced ejection fraction. Its interplay with systolic blood pressure (SBP) is not known. OBJECTIVES The goal of this study was to evaluate the interplay of SBP and the effects of empagliflozin in EMPEROR-Reduced (Empagliflozin Outcome Trial in Patients With Chronic Heart Failure With Reduced Ejection Fraction). METHODS Study patients (N = 3,730) were randomly assigned to groups according to SBP at baseline (<110 mm Hg, n = 928; 110-130 mm Hg, n = 1,755; >130 mm Hg, n = 1,047). This study explored the influence of SBP on the effects of empagliflozin on cardiovascular death or HF hospitalization (primary outcome), as well as on total HF hospitalizations, rate of decline in estimated glomerular filtration rate, renal outcomes, and empagliflozin's effects and significance on SBP. RESULTS Over a median of 16 months considering only patients receiving placebo, baseline SBP and the risk of cardiovascular death or hospitalization for HF (P trend = 0.0015) were inversely related. Corrected for placebo, a slight early increase was observed in SBP at <110 mm Hg, no change at 110-130 mm Hg, and a slight reduction at >130 mm Hg. These between-group differences were of borderline significance (P for interaction trend = 0.05-0.10) after 4 and 12 weeks but were not significant later. SBP at baseline did not influence the effect of empagliflozin to reduce the risk of HF events or renal endpoints. When treated with empagliflozin, patients with SBP <110 mm Hg did not have an increased rate of symptomatic hypotension. CONCLUSIONS Empagliflozin was effective and safe, with no meaningful interaction between SBP and the effects of empagliflozin in the EMPEROR-Reduced trial. (Empagliflozin Outcome Trial in Patients With Chronic Heart Failure With Reduced Ejection Fraction [EMPEROR-Reduced]; NCT03057977).

Abstract
In recent years, inhibitors of the sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2 inhibitors) have been shown to have significant protective effects on the kidney and the cardiovascular system in patients with diabetes. This effect is also manifested in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients and is minimally due to improved glycaemic control. Starting from these positive findings, SGLT2 inhibitors have also been tested in patients with non-diabetic CKD or heart failure with reduced ejection fraction. Recently, the DAPA-CKD trial showed a significantly lower risk of CKD progression or death from renal or cardiovascular causes in a mixed population of patients with diabetic and non-diabetic CKD receiving dapagliflozin in comparison with placebo. In patients with heart failure and reduced ejection fraction, two trials (EMPEROR-Reduced and DAPA-HF) also found a significantly lower risk of reaching the secondary renal endpoint in those treated with an SGLT2 inhibitor in comparison with placebo. This also applied to patients with CKD. Apart from their direct mechanism of action, SGLT2 inhibitors have additional effects that could be of particular interest for patients with non-diabetic CKD. Among these, SGLT2 inhibitors reduce blood pressure and serum acid uric levels and can increase hemoglobin levels. Some safety issues should be further explored in the CKD population. SGLT2 inhibitors can minimally increase potassium levels, but this has not been shown by the CREDENCE trial. They also increase magnesium and phosphate reabsorption. These effects could become more significant in patients with advanced CKD and will need monitoring when these agents are used more extensively in the CKD population. Conversely, they do not seem to increase the risk of acute kidney injury.

Abstract
In different large-scale clinic outcome trials, sodium (Na+)/glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors showed profound cardiac- and renal-protective effects, making them revolutionary treatments for heart failure and kidney disease. Different theories are proposed according to the emerging protective effects other than the original purpose of glucose-lowering in diabetic patients. As the ATP-dependent primary ion transporter providing the Na+ gradient to drive other Na+-dependent transporters, the possible role of the sodium–potassium adenosine triphosphatase (Na/K-ATPase) as the primary ion transporter and its signaling function is not explored.

Abstract
The heart and the kidneys are closely interconnected, and disease in one organ system can lead to disease in the other. This interdependence is illustrated in heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), where worsening heart failure can lead to renal dysfunction and vice versa. Further complicating this situation is the fact that drugs that serve as guideline directed medical therapy (GDMT) for HFrEF can affect renal function. Sodium glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors are a new class of medication with an evolving role in heart failure (HF) and chronic kidney disease (CKD). Initially found to have benefits in diabetics, new research established potential cardiovascular and renal benefits in patients with HF independent of their diabetic status and in populations with CKD. This has been established by landmark trials such as EMPEROR-Reduced, EMPA-TROPISM, CREDENCE, DAPA-CKD, DAPA-HF, and DEFINE-HF. Multiple mechanisms responsible for these benefits have been suggested by clinical and non-clinical studies, and involve cardiac and renal energetic efficiency, cardiac remodeling, preservation of renal function, immunomodulation, changes in hematocrit, and control of risk factors. As such, SGLT2 inhibitors have tremendous potential to improve outcomes in populations with HF and CKD. The purpose of this review is to discuss the current evidence and underlying mechanisms for the cardio-renal benefits of SGLT2 inhibitors in patients with HFrEF.
