Effects of dapagliflozin on renal function in type 1 diabetes patients in the real world: A retrospective multicenter study of the KAMOGAWA-A cohort

Diabetes Res Clin PractPublished Retrospective cohort study

Authors' conclusion

At 24 months, the decline in eGFR was significantly lower in the dapagliflozin group than in the non-use group without increasing diabetic ketoacidosis and hypoglycemia.

Main finding

As reported in the abstract

Least squares mean change in eGFR

Dapagliflozin

−3.14

least squares mean · 95% CI −5.62–-0.66 · mL/min/1.73 m²

Non-use

−6.94

least squares mean · 95% CI −9.39–-4.50 · mL/min/1.73 m²

P = 0.032

Observational data: associations, not effects.

Secondary outcomes

Change in HbA1c, total insulin dose and urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR) · 24 months

HbA1c, total insulin dose and UACR change significantly lower with dapagliflozin than non-use
