Most #GLP-1 Medications Correlated with a Lower Likelihood of #Anxiety and #Depression Diagnoses

Key FindingsDiabetic patients prescribed tirzepatide, semaglutide, dulaglutide, and exenatide are less likely to be diagnosed with depression after starting the medication compared to those not on a glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1) medication.  The likelihood of anxiety in diabetic patients is lower for those on all five GLP-1 medications studied. Among non-diabetic patients, semaglutide is correlated with… Continue reading Most #GLP-1 Medications Correlated with a Lower Likelihood of #Anxiety and #Depression Diagnoses

#Walking speed and the risk of type 2 #diabetes: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Associations between Metabolomic Biomarkers of #Avocado Intake and #Glycemia in the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis

BackgroundAvocado consumption is linked to better glucose homeostasis, but small associations suggest potential population heterogeneity. Metabolomic data capture the effects of food intake after digestion and metabolism, thus accounting for individual differences in these processes.ObjectivesTo identify metabolomic biomarkers of avocado intake and to examine their associations with glycemia.MethodsBaseline data from 6224 multi-ethnic older adults (62% female) included self-reported avocado… Continue reading Associations between Metabolomic Biomarkers of #Avocado Intake and #Glycemia in the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis

Dietary #Sodium Intake and Risk of Incident Type 2 #Diabetes

ObjectiveTo fill the knowledge gap of the relation between long-term dietary sodium intake and type 2 diabetes (T2D), we evaluate the association between the frequency of adding salt to foods, a surrogate marker for evaluating the long-term sodium intake, and incident T2D risk.MethodsA total of 402,982 participants from UK Biobank (March 13, 2006 – October… Continue reading Dietary #Sodium Intake and Risk of Incident Type 2 #Diabetes

Designing and computational analyzing of chimeric long-lasting #GLP-1 receptor agonists for type 2 #diabetes

Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) is an intestinally derived incretin that plays a vital role in engineering the biological circuit involved in treating type 2 diabetes. Exceedingly short half-life (1–2 min) of GLP-1 limits its therapeutic applicability, and the implication of its new variants is under question. Since albumin-binding DARPin as a mimetic molecule has been reported to… Continue reading Designing and computational analyzing of chimeric long-lasting #GLP-1 receptor agonists for type 2 #diabetes

Use of #sugar in #coffee and #tea and long-term risk of #mortality in older adult Danish men: 32 years of follow-up from a prospective cohort study

Tea and coffee are the most consumed beverages worldwide and very often sweetened with sugar. However, the association between the use of sugar in tea or coffee and adverse events is currently unclear.ObjectivesTo investigate the association between the addition of sugar to coffee or tea, and the risk of all-cause mortality, cardiovascular mortality, cancer mortality… Continue reading Use of #sugar in #coffee and #tea and long-term risk of #mortality in older adult Danish men: 32 years of follow-up from a prospective cohort study

Mechanisms of #weight loss-induced remission in people with #prediabetes: a post-hoc analysis of the randomised, controlled, multicentre Prediabetes Lifestyle Intervention Study (PLIS)

Background Remission of type 2 diabetes can occur as a result of weight loss and is characterised by liver fat and pancreas fat reduction and recovered insulin secretion. In this analysis, we aimed to investigate the mechanisms of weight loss- induced remission in people with prediabetes.MethodsIn this prespecified post-hoc analysis, weight loss-induced resolution of prediabetes… Continue reading Mechanisms of #weight loss-induced remission in people with #prediabetes: a post-hoc analysis of the randomised, controlled, multicentre Prediabetes Lifestyle Intervention Study (PLIS)
