Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT-2i) have demonstrated efficacy in reducing cardiovascular events and potentially improving kidney function in diabetic patients. This investigation analyzes the TriNetX database to assess the efficacy of SGLT-2i in diabetic kidney transplant recipients (KTR) concerning all-cause mortality, major adverse cardiac events (MACE), and major adverse kidney events (MAKE). The study includes type 2 diabetic patients over 18 who underwent kidney transplants between June 1, 2015, and June 1, 2023, with a focus on SGLT-2i use within the first three months post-transplant. After propensity score matching, the study compares 1970 SGLT-2i users with matched non-users. With a median follow-up of 3.4 years, SGLT-2i users showed significantly lower rates of all-cause mortality (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR]: 0.32), MACE (aHR: 0.48), and MAKE (aHR: 0.52). These findings indicate that SGLT-2i significantly reduces mortality and adverse events in diabetic KTR, underscoring its potential to improve post-transplant outcomes.

SGLT-2 抑制剂在糖尿病肾移植受者中的应用结果
钠-葡萄糖协同转运蛋白 2 抑制剂 (SGLT-2i) 已被证明在减少心血管事件和可能改善糖尿病患者的肾功能方面有效。本研究分析 TriNetX 数据库,以评估 SGLT-2i 在糖尿病肾移植受者 (KTR) 中全因死亡率、主要不良心脏事件 (MACE) 和主要不良肾脏事件 (MAKE) 方面的疗效。该研究包括 2015 年 6 月 1 日至 2023 年 6 月 1 日期间接受肾移植的 18 岁以上 2 型糖尿病患者,重点是移植后前三个月内 SGLT-2i 的使用。在倾向得分匹配后,该研究将 1970 个 SGLT-2i 用户与匹配的非用户进行了比较。中位随访 3.4 年,SGLT-2i 使用者的全因死亡率 (调整后风险比 [aHR]: 0.32)、MACE (aHR: 0.48) 和 MAKE (aHR: 0.52) 显著降低。这些发现表明,SGLT-2i 显着降低了糖尿病 KTR 的死亡率和不良事件,强调了其改善移植后结果的潜力。
