The impact of sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT-2is), including dapagliflozin, on the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients remains controversial, as they may either activate or inhibit RAAS, subsequently influencing glucose metabolism and the accuracy of the aldosterone-to-renin ratio (ARR) in diagnosing primary aldosteronism (PA). This evidence concerns the gene SLC5A2 and diabetes mellitus.
