B Lymphocyte—A Prognostic Indicator in Post-Acute Pancreatitis Diabetes Mellitus

In this study, we aimed to determine the value of lymphocyte subsets and granulocyte/monocyte markers in predicting the risk of post-acute pancreatitis diabetes mellitus (PPDM-A). Our study is the first to confirm the correlation between PPDM-A and lymphocyte subsets and indicated that age, fatty liver, serous effusion, recurrent AP, and B% were independent risk factors for PPDM-A. The interaction mechanism of granulocyte and monocyte surface markers and B lymphocytes on glucose metabolism disorder after AP is worthy of further study.

Is Weight Loss the Main Driver for A1C Improvement by Glucagon-Like Peptide 1 (GLP-1) Receptor Agonists? A 2.5-Year Analysis in Real-World Clinical Practice

Is Weight Loss the Main Driver for A1C Improvement by Glucagon-Like Peptide 1 (GLP-1) Receptor Agonists? A 2.5-Year Analysis in Real-World Clinical Practice

This retrospective study of 256 patients reveals a strong correlation between percentage weight change and A1C reduction in patients on long-term GLP-1 RA use. Additionally, patients who lost more weight had significant improvements in dyslipidemia. These findings emphasize weight reduction as a crucial therapeutic target to enhance metabolic outcomes in real-world clinical practice.
