Compared to the subgroup with eGFR >90 mL/min/1.73 m2, improvements in renal function were more significant in patients with T2DM from the 60 < eGFR ≤90 mL/min/1.73 m2 and eGFR ≤60 mL/min/1.73 m2 subgroups after treatment with SGLT-2 inhibitors. This evidence concerns the gene SLC5A2 and type 2 diabetes mellitus.
