β°2 hours until #NephJC chat
SGLT2i has transformed the world of nephrology, with sustained effects on multiple hard end-points. Do their benefits transcend to transplant patients too? Letβs discuss #flozination in Transplant recipients today, 9PM EST in the #NephJC chat.
1/2
Here is the VA for the INFINITI study of SGLT2i in transplant patients by @glomerican.bsky.social #NephSky #Flozins #Flozination

I would love to believe #flozination helps everything
But this seems too good to be true with such early separation. Some kinda selection bias?
If age adjusted mortality rates are within a few % of the 2019 levels after:
πmarked β¬οΈ in opioid deaths
β οΈ "falling by the wayside" in 2020-2022
βοΈ5 years of :
βοΈ advances in cancer immunotherapy
π« the #flozination revolution
β‘οΈ the march of Ozempic/GLP1RA
what is causing the excess deathsβοΈ

#Nephjc Christos Argyropoulos from ABQ. Just arrived from #flozination clinic which prevents people from being candidates for phosphate reduction.
No COI
Haha. Maybe itβs heart failure! We need #flozination @boback.bsky.social
(But jokes apart - agree on pre-test probability of chronic venous insufficiency being high)
π₯Celebrating 82 years since our hospital exists
2 general conclusions
π Always #flozinate- fun quizz by dr Mugurel Apetrii, mentioning APPLE-CKD π
π Adapting Benjamin Franklinβs quote: The only certain things in life are death, taxes and #flozination

Nice ... waiting full results with CONFIDENCE #flozination
Table 2 Effects of dapagliflozin compared with placebo on diabetes remission and metabolic risk factors. Values are means (SD) unless stated otherwise
After metformin for remission, itβs the turn of #flozination
www.bmj.com/content/388/... in @bmj.com
Compared to caloric restriction alone, slightly more remission with Dapa
Remission defined as coming off Dapa (and metformin) - kinda underwhelming
#MedSky
Funny - @jama.com IM published two papers simultaneously
Denmark: jamanetwork.com/journals/jam... (Empa = Dapa)
Boston: jamanetwork.com/journals/jam... (also = Cana but use 10 mg Dapa)!
Yes, #Flozination is class effect
@christosargyrop.bsky.social ?
visual abstract of the study
Figure 1 Bland-Altman plots for creatinine, by glucose concentration. Mean difference and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) are shown by dashed and solid gray lines. If slope is significantly different from 0, bias is instead shown by a regression line in blue. The 95% limits of agreement are shown as solid black lines.
If the urine ACR reduction after #Flozination seems very impressive
make sure it is really true
Glycosuria from SGLT2i = falsely higher urine creatinine by Jaffe = lower Urine ACR

2022 #TopNephrology was the #flozination second year, this time beyond diabetic kidney disease
π· xenotransplantation makes it in the top 10
β¨ the joy of getting together in person, after 2 years of COVID was priceless

2021 #TopNephrology was the year when 1st place and 5th place were occupied by KDIGO guidelines: π₯GN guideline, respectively 5th place by BP guidelines
π#flozination was now possible in IgAN
π±οΈ CLICK trial: lower BP with chlorthalidone in CKD

π We remember 2020 as a pandemic year, but not do not forget, that 2020 is the year when nephrology started evidence-based #flozination with DAPA-CKD results
π PEXIVAS, ISCHEMIA-CKD, uric acid lowering broke many nephrologists' hearts

Not needing to do dialysis.
A few years ago when people talked of screening, early detection and prevention - I used to be leery because our tools were so weak and blunt.
Not any more. #Flozination, #Glipination and much more
(To complete our takeover of this thread)
Did you see the SWEETSTONE trial results?

Iptacopan and Avacopan reacting to the @kireports.bsky.social research letter
(Maybe this will get the immunology glom people to embrace #Flozination over their previous fancy drugs?)
Our last #NephJC was on #flozination. We discussed the long-term effects of empagliflozin on CKD & revisited the EMPA-KIDNEY study

The origins of #Flozination
Feat. @christosargyrop.bsky.social & @kidneyboy.bsky.social
Heard Aisling McDonough and @juancarlosqvelez.bsky.social refer to SGLT2i as βflozinsβ and verbification was a natural corollary
#GreatestHits
This is how you use the neural networks in the EMR. #Flozinator #flozination
Joel Topf here, I think I'm leaning towards #Flozination but it is too early to call! #NephJC
A little underdressed for a talk at my hospital @SHLakeland but Iβm discussing my favorite topic #flozination and had to wear The Shirt.
More on #Flozination, associated with 25-30% lower risk of kidney stones

πCan you think of another drug class that inhibits NHE3 at intestinal levels?
@ChristosArgyrop
could tell us more about #flozination
βοΈ Question: do we know more about glifozins and P? Could they lower the P? #ERA22
