Abstract

Integrating sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) into the treatment for chronic kidney disease (CKD) has marked a significant therapeutic advance in nephrology. Clinical trials such as DAPA-CKD and EMPA-KIDNEY have demonstrated the beneficial effects of SGLT2i in slowing CKD progression and reducing proteinuria. However, the applicability of these results to patients with glomerulonephritis is still unresolved due to various limitations. This manuscript combines the evidence supporting the use of SGLT2i in glomerular diseases, highlights the limitations and strikes a conclusive balance on their role in clinical practice.
