HealthDay News — The oral small-molecule glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist, orforglipron, reduced glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) over 40 weeks in adults with early type 2 diabetes, according ...

MariTide, a new drug from Amgen, helped some people with obesity lose up to 20% of their body weight. In a phase 2 trial, a new GLP-1 drug helped people lose up to 20% of their body weight over a year ...

Electrochemical biosensors have emerged as a promising technology for the detection of glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c), a critical biomarker for long‐term glycaemic control and diabetes management ...

Iron deficiency anaemia (IDA) is a prevalent condition with significant ramifications for diabetic care. Glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) remains the cornerstone for monitoring long‐term glycaemic ...

The percentage of patients who had a glycated hemoglobin level of 6.5% or less was 73.5% in the cagrilintide–semaglutide group and 15.9% in the placebo group.

Initiation of longer-acting insulins, such as glargine or degludec, administered at bedtime, has gained widespread use and is effective in lowering glycated hemoglobin levels; however, daily ...

None of the patients experienced any severe hypoglycemic events from day 90 onward, with glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) levels—a measure of diabetes control—at the recommended level of less than ...

Once-weekly amycretin, a novel peptide activating GLP-1, amylin, and calcitonin receptors, produced rapid, substantial, and sustained weight loss in adults with overweight or obesity during a ...

Early diagnosis of type 2 diabetes can help prevent complications. Learn about the tests doctors use to diagnose the condition.

The main endpoint in the study was the change from baseline at 24 weeks in glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) levels, a biomarker for blood glucose control.

Following this strategy leads to raised glycated hemoglobin levels, which are, consequently, linked to an increased risk of diabetic complications and increased healthcare costs.

Additional and sensitivity analyses When adjusting for waist circumference, glycated haemoglobin A1C, high-density and low-density lipoprotein, blood pressure and triglycerides, the association ...
