Efficacy and Safety of SGLT2 Inhibitors in Patients with Type 1 Diabetes: A Meta-analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials.
Objective To assess the efficiency and safety of a novel sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitor-SGLT2 inhibitors, in combination with insulin for type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). Methods We searched Medline, Embase, and the Cochrane Collaboration Library to identify the eligible studies published between January 2010 and July 2016 without restriction of language. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) data and ClinicalTrials (http://www.clinicaltrials.gov) were also searched. ⋯ SGLT2 inhibitors could also increase the excretion of urine glucose (MD 131.09 g/24 h, 95%CI 91.79 to 170.39, P<0.001). There were no significant differences in the incidences of hyperglycemia [odds ratio (OR) 1.82, 95%CI 0.63 to 5.29, P=0.27], urinary tract infection (OR 0.95, 95%CI 0.19 to 4.85, P=0.95), genital tract infection (OR 0.27, 95%CI 0.01 to 7.19, P=0.43), and diabetic ketoacidosis (OR 6.03, 95%CI 0.27 to 135.99, P=0.26) between the two groups. Conclusion SGLT2 inhibitors combined with insulin might be an efficient and safe treatment modality for T1DM patients.
