Erythrocytosis and thrombotic events in kidney transplant recipients prescribed a sodium glucose cotransport‐2 inhibitor
Bibliographic record
Abstract
INTRODUCTION: The safety and efficacy of sodium glucose cotransport-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) in kidney transplant recipients remains uncertain. Transplant recipients may be at risk of thrombosis because of post-transplant erythrocytosis and SGLT2i are associated with an increase in hematocrit. METHODS: We determined SGLT2i use, the change in hematocrit and incidence of thrombotic events in kidney transplant recipients in 1700 prevalent patients in our center. RESULTS: Among the 42 patients treated with SGLT2i, the mean pre-transplant hematocrit was 31%, and none of the patients had a hematocrit ≥50%. The mean percent change in hematocrit measured at an average of 53 days after initiation of an SGLT2i was 11% and four patients (10%) had a hematocrit ≥ 50%. The mean hematocrit measured 3 months after treatment was 42% and two patients (5%) had a hematocrit ≥50%. One patient had a cerebellar stroke 14 months post-SGLT2i initiation when the hemoglobin was 173 grams/liter, and the hematocrit was 52%. CONCLUSIONS: All patients had a sustained increase in hematocrit 3 months after SGLT2i treatment. Hematocrit ≥50% occurred in 10%, and one patient had a thrombotic event that may or may not have been related to an increase in hematocrit. Clinicians may consider monitoring for erythrocytosis after starting and SGLT2i in kidney transplant recipients.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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 teacher head, not a consensus.
