The confounding role of common diabetes medications in developing acute renal failure: A data mining approach with emphasis on drug-drug interactions
作者：
Highlights：
• An extent data mining approach is extended to assess the confounding role of drugs.
• General confounding role of diabetes drugs in developing renal failure is identified.
• Potential drug-drug interactions significantly modify the confounding role of drugs.
• Findings explain the inconsistent effects of diabetes drugs reported in prior research.
