Abstract
Introduction and Objective: GLP-1RAs & SGLT2i are treatments with benefits extending beyond glycemic control in kidney transplant recipients (KTR). These agents show promise in enhancing metabolic & cardiorenal outcomes in diabetic KTR, but evidence, especially for monotherapy vs. combination use, remains scarce. This study evaluates the effects of GLP-1RAs alone & combined with SGLT2i on metabolic, glycemic, renal, & cardiovascular outcomes in T2D KTR over 12 months. Methods: Retrospective cohort study of KTR with pre-transplant T2D. Baseline and 12-month data on metabolic, glycemic, renal, & CV outcomes were analyzed. The 2nd drug was initiated 3-9 months after the 1st. Paired t-tests were used, results expressed as mean±SEM. Results: 18 patients (59±2.7 yrs, 83% male) were studied. 12 (66.7%) received GLP-1RAs and 6 (33.3%) GLP-1RA+SGLT2i. GLP-1RA monotherapy significantly improved BMI (p<0.01), FPG (p=0.03), & A1c (p=0.07). No changes in BP, HR, Total Cholesterol, or HDL noted. Combination therapy showed significant improvements in LDL (p=0.08), eGFR (p=0.04), BUN (p<0.01), & Tacrolimus levels (p=0.05). No patients discontinued therapy due to side effects. Conclusion: GLP-1RAs & SGLT2i are effective & safe for T2D KTR, GLP-1RA improving glycemic & weight outcomes, while combination therapy offers added renal and lipid benefits, suggesting synergistic effects warranting further study.

期刊介绍:
Diabetes is a scientific journal that publishes original research exploring the physiological and pathophysiological aspects of diabetes mellitus. We encourage submissions of manuscripts pertaining to laboratory, animal, or human research, covering a wide range of topics. Our primary focus is on investigative reports investigating various aspects such as the development and progression of diabetes, along with its associated complications. We also welcome studies delving into normal and pathological pancreatic islet function and intermediary metabolism, as well as exploring the mechanisms of drug and hormone action from a pharmacological perspective. Additionally, we encourage submissions that delve into the biochemical and molecular aspects of both normal and abnormal biological processes.
However, it is important to note that we do not publish studies relating to diabetes education or the application of accepted therapeutic and diagnostic approaches to patients with diabetes mellitus. Our aim is to provide a platform for research that contributes to advancing our understanding of the underlying mechanisms and processes of diabetes.
