Abstract
Aims
The present study aims to determine the effects of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors on the serum uric acid (SUA) levels of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in Asia.
Methods
PubMed, CENTRAL, Embase and Cochrane Library databases were searched for randomized controlled trials of SGLT-2 inhibitors in patients with T2DM up to 15 July 2021, without language or date restrictions.
Results
In total, 19 high-quality studies (4218 participants) were included in the present network meta-analysis. All of the included SGLT-2 inhibitors (empagliflozin, dapagliflozin, canagliflozin, ipragliflozin, luseogliflozin and tofogliflozin) significantly decreased SUA levels compared with those of the control [total standard mean difference –0.965, 95% CI (−1.029, −0.901), p = .000, I2 = 98.7%] in patients with T2DM. Subgroup analysis and meta-regression showed that the combined analysis of different inhibitors might lead to heterogeneity of the results. Therefore, among the SGLT-2 inhibitors, the results of the subsequent network meta-analysis revealed that luseogliflozin and dapagliflozin ranked the highest in terms of lowering SUA levels among the SGLT-2 inhibitors. Moreover, the network meta-analysis declared that luseogliflozin (1 and 10 mg) and dapagliflozin (5 mg) led to a superior reduction in SUA in patients with T2DM.
Conclusions
SGLT-2 inhibitors could significantly reduce SUA levels in patients with T2DM, particularly luseogliflozin (1 and 10 mg) and dapagliflozin (5 mg) possess the best effects. Therefore, SGLT-2 inhibitors look extremely promising as an antidiabetes treatment option in patients with T2DM with high SUA.
期刊介绍:
Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism is primarily a journal of clinical and experimental pharmacology and therapeutics covering the interrelated areas of diabetes, obesity and metabolism. The journal prioritises high-quality original research that reports on the effects of new or existing therapies, including dietary, exercise and lifestyle (non-pharmacological) interventions, in any aspect of metabolic and endocrine disease, either in humans or animal and cellular systems. ‘Metabolism’ may relate to lipids, bone and drug metabolism, or broader aspects of endocrine dysfunction. Preclinical pharmacology, pharmacokinetic studies, meta-analyses and those addressing drug safety and tolerability are also highly suitable for publication in this journal. Original research may be published as a main paper or as a research letter.
