We had aimed to determine whether homeostasis model assessment–insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) reflects insulin resistance-sensitivity during treatment with a sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitor (SGLT2i). Hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp analysis was performed in 22 patients with type 2 diabetic patients taking dapagliflozin (5 mg/day before or after breakfast). Propensity score matching of these individuals (SGLT2i group) for age, sex, body mass index, and clamp-derived tissue glucose uptake rate with 44 type 2 diabetic patients who had undergone clamp analysis without SGLT2i treatment (control group) identified 17 paired subjects in each group for further analysis of the relation between HOMA-IR and a clamp-derived insulin sensitivity index (ISI). Natural log–transformed HOMA-IR was negatively correlated with ISI in both SGLT2i (r = –0.527, p = 0.030) and control (r = –0.534, p = 0.027) groups. The simple regression lines for log-transformed HOMA-IR and ISI in the two groups showed similar slopes but differed in their intercepts. Multivariate analysis revealed that HOMA-IR for patients with the same ISI in the two groups was related by the formula: HOMA-IRcontrol = HOMA-IRSGLT2i × 2.45. In conclusion, HOMA-IR was well correlated with ISI during SGLT2i treatment, but values corresponding to the same ISI were lower in the SGLT2i group than in the control group.

Background: Gut microbiome composition or circulating microbiome-related metabolites in patients with heart failure (HF) have not been investigated at different time points (i.e., in the decompensated (Decomp) and compensated (Comp) phases). Methods and Results: We prospectively enrolled 22 patients admitted for HF and 11 age-, sex-, and comorbidity-matched hospitalized control subjects without a history of HF. Gut flora and plasma microbiome-related metabolites were evaluated by amplicon sequencing of the bacterial 16S ribosomal RNA gene and capillary electrophoresis time-of-flight mass spectrometry, respectively. HF patients were evaluated in both the Decomp and Comp phases during hospitalization. The phylum Actinobacteria was enriched in HF patients compared with control subjects. At the genus level, Bifiodobacterium was abundant while Megamonas was depleted in HF patients. Meanwhile, plasma concentration of trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO), a gut microbiome-derived metabolite, was increased in HF patients (Decomp HF vs. control, P=0.003; Comp HF vs. control, P=0.004). A correlation analysis revealed positive correlations between the abundance of the genus Escherichia/Shigella and levels of TMAO and indoxyl sulfate (IS, a microbe-dependent uremic toxin) in Comp HF (TMAO: r=0.62, P=0.002; IS: r=0.63, P=0.002). Escherichia/Shigella was more abundant in Decomp than in Comp HF (P=0.030). Conclusions: Our results suggest that gut microbiome composition and microbiome-related metabolites are altered in HF patients.
