Abstract

This commentary provides an analysis of the study by Fu et al. in Kidney International, which employs 3 administrative databases to investigate the hyperkalemia protective effects of sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors, glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists, and dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors. It emphasizes the methodological approach, notably the use of a fixed-effect model to aggregate pairwise comparisons from 3 data sets. In addition, we explored the broader cardiorenal and potential nonrenal benefits of these drug classes, underscoring the imperative for continued research in this domain.
