چکیده

OBJECTIVE Clinical studies evaluating the effects of medications on b-cell function in type 2 diabetes (T2DM) are compromised by an inability to determine the actual baseline degree ofb-cell dysfunction independent of the reversible dysfunction induced by hyperglycemia (glucotoxicity). Short-term intensive insulin therapy (IIT) is a strategy for eliminating glucotoxicity before randomization. This study determined whether liraglutide can preserve b-cell function over 48 weeks in early T2DM following initial elimination of glucotoxicity with IIT.

Impact of Magnesium Deficiency on Pancreatic β-Cell Function in Type 2 Diabetic Nigerians

Objective: Pancreatic b-cell dysfunction is described to be present at the diagnosis of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and progressively deteriorated with disease duration. However, its progression is variable and potentially influenced by several factors. The Magnesium (Mg) deficiency mediates insulin resistance but reports regarding its role in pancreatic β-cell dysfunction are scarce and co...
