  • Q&A:
  • 01:26:50 Given the SGLT2 inhibitor data, what would be your first line treatment for a diabetic kidney disease patient without proteinuria?01:33:36 What is the rationale and evidence for reducing LDL <1.4 in the CKD population?01:36:24 If there is a patient with a low risk of progression and do not have albuminuria, will you use a RAS blocker with an SGLT2 inhibitor? 01:38:47 In a patient with IGA nephropathy, with CKD and no albuminuria, do we have to change our practice from using only a RAS blocker to treat hypertension, to adding in an SGLT2 inhibitor? 01:40:49 Would you use an SGLT2 inhibitor in type one diabetes? 01:43:11 What dose would we choose when we use SGLT2 inhibitors in patients with CKD, 10 or 25 mg? 01:44:35 If eGFR dropped to less than 90 because of aging, is there any value of using SGLT2 inhibitors? 01:47:50 Is empagliflozin more superior in providing renal protection in patient with CKF compared to insulin? 01:54:49 Is there any additional benefit/evidence in retarding CKD progression or HF incidence with a higher dose of empagliflozin (25 mg)? 01:55:27 Nowadays when you start on SGLT2 inhibitors, do you still make a point to ask a patient to come back 2 or 4 weeks later to check their kidney function? 01:57:21 In your opinion, is there a class effect with the SGLT2 inhibitors or should they be differentiated based on the trial data? 02:01:40 Key takeaways and closing
