SGLT-2 inhibitors in nephrotic-range proteinuria: emerging clinical evidence
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors are a class of novel oral anti-hyperglycemic agents which are increasingly used in clinical practice. SGLT-2 inhibitors improve glycemic control and cardiorenal outcomes, promote weight loss, and reduce blood pressure. Randomized controlled trials have demonstrated that SGLT-2 inhibitors reduce proteinuria and delay progression of kidney disease in patients with albuminuria. However, whether SGLT-2 inhibitors have similar benefits in patients with nephrotic-range proteinuria has not been well established. Evidence to date has been limited to case reports, case series and secondary analyses of randomized controlled trials. This is the first comprehensive review on the effectiveness of SGLT-2 inhibitors for the treatment of patients with nephrotic-range albuminuria or proteinuria. Overall findings support a likely beneficial role of SGLT-2 inhibitors in reducing proteinuria and delaying chronic kidney disease progression in patients with nephrotic-range proteinuria.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
