NCT ID NCT05965440

Summary

This study aimed to understand how the kidney medication dapagliflozin might work by looking at its effects on gut bacteria. Researchers observed 50 non-diabetic patients with chronic kidney disease who were starting this drug as part of their normal care. They checked if 12 weeks of treatment changed the types of bacteria in the gut or the levels of waste products these bacteria make.
