The underutilization of sodium-glucose co-transporter type 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i), despite their proven cardiovascular and renal benefits, raises concerns about healthcare equity. SGLT2i effectively reduces proteinuria, a key indicator kidney disease, making them an essential treatment for individuals with or without diabetes, particularly those at higher risk, such as the Black American population, who have prevalence proteinuria. However, studies show disparities in prescriptions race, ethnicity, socioeconomic status contributing to lower utilization rates among vulnerable populations. This study aims explore prescription patterns Maryland, focusing on patients proteinuria address these improve access care. objective was identify racial SGLT2i. retrospective cohort utilized de-identified electronic health records (EHR) sourced from Epic database across University Maryland Medical System (UMMS), spanning 10-year period January 1, 2014, December 31, 2023, evaluated Of 5,866,616 UMMS system, 28,136 were diagnosed whom 4,360 (15.5%) prescribed medications.

Abstract Aim Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is a major complication of diabetes, including in insulin‐deficient phenotypes, yet data on outcomes with sodium‐glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) this population are limited. This study investigates the impact SGLT2i patients diabetes using real world data. Materials and Methods retrospective cohort utilized from large Health Maintenance Organization Israel included 12,530 propensity score‐matched adults diabetes. Patients were categorized into users non‐users followed for median 1657 days. The primary outcome was composite ≥50% decline eGFR to <60 mL/min/1.73 m or progression <15 . Secondary doubling serum creatinine changes albuminuria category. Results use associated reduced incidence (6.1% vs. 7.5%; HR 0.79, p < 0.001). analyses revealed significant reductions (HR 0.76, 0.001) improvements albuminuria, 51% transitioning normoalbuminuria. Benefits consistent across subgroups. Although diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) higher among (2.81% 2.19%, = 0.03), overall frequency low. Conclusions demonstrated substantial protection patients, extending benefits beyond type These findings highlight as potential therapeutic option mitigating DKD high‐risk populations.

Abstract Background Recent clinical trials demonstrate benefits of sodium‐glucose cotransporter‐2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) in patients with chronic kidney disease, but data on use transplant (KTx) recipients are limited. Methods We examined a novel database linking SRTR registry for KTx (2000–2021) outpatient fill records from large pharmaceutical claims warehouse (2015–2021). Adult (≥18 years) treated SGLT2i were compared to those who received other noninsulin diabetes medications without SGLT2i. Characteristics associated quantified by multivariable logistic regression (adjusted odds ratio, 95%LCL aOR 95%UCL ). Results Among 18 988 agents the study period, 2224 filled an Mean time prescription was 6.7 years versus 4.7 non‐SGLT2i medications. more common Asian adults (aOR, 1.09 1.31 1.58 ) and aged > 30–59 (compared 18–30 or BMI 35 kg/m 2 1.19 1.41 1.67 ), trended higher self‐pay status. lower among women .79 .87 .96 Black .77 .88 1.00 .52 .75 1.07 race, publicly insured .82 .92 1.03 less than college education .78 age 75 older. increased dramatically 2019–2021 5.01 5.63 6.33 vs. prior years).
