  1. CKD polygenic risk score predicts kidney disease progression in humans (aHR 1.17 (95% CI, 1.10-1.26)).

    “the PRS was independently associated with an aHR (per 1-SD) for the composite renal outcome of 1.17 (95% CI, 1.10-1.26, p<0.001).”

GLP-1 drugs added to SGLT2 inhibitors linked to lower kidney risk

Adding a GLP-1 receptor agonist was linked to lower rates of major adverse kidney events (HR 0.70) compared with SGLT2 inhibitor monotherapy over 12 months.Adding a GLP-1 receptor agonist was linked to lower rates of major adverse kidney events (HR 0.70) compared with SGLT2 inhibitor monotherapy over 12 months.
