Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with diabetes have a relatively high risk of fracture due to osteoporosis. However, the risk of osteoporosis associated with the use of oral hypoglycemic drugs and dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor (DPP-4i) by patients with diabetes is unclear. This study aimed to explore the effect of DPP-4i on the risk of osteoporosis in Taiwanese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). METHODS This study enrolled 6339 patients on DPP-4i (DPP-4i group) and 25 356 patients without DPP-4i (non-DPP-4i group). They were matched by 1:4 propensity score matching, using confounding variables including sex, age, comorbidities, medication, and index year. Cox proportional hazards analysis was used to compare hospitalization and mortality during an average follow-up period of 7 years. RESULTS The mean age of patients in the two groups was 66 years. Men were slightly higher in number (51.79%) than women. At the end of the follow-up period, 113 (0.36%) patients had osteoporosis, of which 15 (0.24%) were in the case group and 98 (0.39%) in the control group. The risk of all-cause osteoporosis was significantly lower in the DPP-4i group than in the non-DPP-4i group (adjusted hazard ratio [HR] 0.616; 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.358-0.961; p = 0.011). Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that the preventive effect on osteoporosis was positively correlated with the cumulative dose of DPP-4i (log-rank, p = 0.039) with the class effect. CONCLUSION Compared with not using DPP-4i, the use of DPP-4i in Taiwanese T2DM patients was associated with a lower risk of osteoporosis due to the class effect, and the preventive effect was dose-dependent. However, larger prospective studies are needed to validate this finding and to explore the possible mechanism of the preventive effect of DPP-4i.

Abstract
AIM We conducted a model-based economic analysis of sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) versus dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors (DPP4is) in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D), with and without established cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), using 10-year real-world data. MATERIALS AND METHODS A Markov model was utilized to estimate healthcare costs and quality-adjusted life-years (QALYs) over a 10-year simulation time horizon from a healthcare sector perspective, with both costs and QALYs discounted at 3% annually. Model inputs were derived from analyses of Taiwan's National Health Insurance Research Database or published studies of Taiwanese populations. The primary outcome measure was the incremental cost-effectiveness ratios (ICERs). Incorporated with our study findings, a targeted literature review was conducted to synthesize updated evidence on the cost-effectiveness of SGLT2is versus DPP4is. RESULTS Over 10 years, use of SGLT2is versus DPP4is yielded ICERs of $3244 and $4186 per QALY gained for patients with T2D, with and without established CVDs, respectively. Results were robust across a series of sensitivity and scenario analyses, showing ICERs between $-1074 (cost-saving) and $8467 per QALY gained for patients with T2D with established CVDs and between $369 and $37 122 per QALY gained for patients with T2D without established CVDs. CONCLUSIONS Use of SGLT2is versus DPP4is was highly cost-effective for patients with T2D regardless of their CVD history in real-world clinical practice. Our results extend current evidence by showing SGLT2is as an economically rational alternative over DPP4is for T2D treatment in routine care. Future research is warranted to explore the heterogeneous economic benefits of SGLT2is given diverse patient characteristics in clinical settings.

Abstract
AIMS Although the difference in HbA1c reduction between sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors and other oral glucose-lowering agents is relatively small, SGLT2 inhibitors exhibit beneficial cardiorenal protection. This study was based on the hypothesis that changes of HbA1c in patients treated with SGLT2 inhibitors may not accurately reflect an improved glycemic profile. METHODS Two studies were conducted: 1) a retrospective cohort study of 3039 patients administered with either an SGLT2 or a dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP4) inhibitor for 12 months comparing the changes in glycated albumin (GA) and HbA1c levels and 2) a pilot study of 10 patients whose glycemic dynamics were evaluated using flash glucose monitoring at baseline and 2 months after treatment with an SGLT2 inhibitor. RESULTS SGLT2 inhibitors reduced GA more markedly than HbA1c in both studies. DPP4 inhibitors decreased both GA and HbA1c to a comparable degree. The mean glucose levels and glycemic standard deviation were significantly reduced after treatment with an SGLT2 inhibitor, in concordance with GA decline, although the lowering of HbA1c was marginal. CONCLUSIONS Changes in HbA1c levels underestimated the glucose-lowering effect and the diminished glycemic fluctuation induced by SGLT2 inhibitors. Thus, the distinct biomarker roles of GA and HbA1c should be reevaluated.

Abstract
AIMS The aim of the meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) was to compare the effectiveness of glycemic control and hypoglycemia risk of combination therapy (metformin plus a low hypoglycemic risk antidiabetic drug) vs. standard metformin monotherapy, in patients with untreated type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). METHODS We searched PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials through October 31, 2021 to find relevant RCTs. Efficacy outcomes were changes in hemoglobulin A1c (HbA1c) and fast plasma glucose (FPG) from baseline as well as proportion of patients achieving HbA1c < 7%; the safety outcome was hypoglycemia risk. RESULTS We identified 14 RCTs comprising 5326 patients with untreated T2DM. Mean treatment duration was 28.1 weeks. Pooled results showed that compared to metformin monotherapy, combination therapy was associated with a reduction in HbA1c (mean difference: -0.48 %, -0.58 to - 0.38) and FPG (mean difference: -0.92 mmol/L, -1.14 to - 0.69), and more patients achieving HbA1c < 7% (odds ratio: 2.21, 1.87 to 2.60). Hypoglycemic events and people experiencing hypoglycemia were not different between 2 groups. CONCLUSIONS Initial combination of metformin plus a low hypoglycemic risk antidiabetic drug may achieve better glycemic control, without a rise in hypoglycemia, in patients with untreated T2DM.

Abstract
CONTEXT Diabetic kidney disease is a major burden among diabetic patients. Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) were shown to reduce renal outcomes in clinical trials and real-world studies. However, head-to-head comparisons with individual classes of glucose-lowering agents warranted further investigation. OBJECTIVE This work aimed to investigate the associations between SGLT2is use vs dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors (DPP4is) use and 4 renal outcomes: end-stage renal disease (ESRD), albuminuria, acute renal failure (ARF), and the rate of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) change using a territory-wide electronic medical database in Hong Kong. METHODS For this retrospective cohort study, the "prevalent new-user" design was adopted to account for previous exposure to study drugs. Propensity score matching was used to balance baseline characteristics. Electronic health data of type 2 diabetes patients using SGLT2is and DPP4is between 2015 and 2018 were collected. RESULTS The matched cohort consisted of 6333 SGLT2is users and 25 332 DPP4is users, with a median follow-up of 3.8 years. Compared to DPP4is, SGLT2is use was associated with lower risks of ESRD (hazard ratio [HR]: 0.51; 95% CI, 0.42-0.62; P < .001) and ARF (HR: 0.59; 95% CI, 0.48-0.73; P < .001), and a slower decline in eGFR. The associations remained statistically significant among patients with or without rapid eGFR decline and patients who added or switched to SGLT2is from DPP4is. The association with albuminuria was inconsistent across analyses. CONCLUSION Compared to DPP4is, SGLT2is use was associated with reduced risks of ESRD and ARF, and a slower eGFR decline in a real-world setting. The associations remained statistically significant in patients with or without preindex rapid eGFR decline.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Therapeutic options for type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) have expanded over the last decade with the emergence of cardioprotective novel agents, but without such data for older drugs, leaving a critical gap in our understanding of the relative effects of T2DM agents on cardiovascular risk. METHODS AND ANALYSIS The large-scale evidence generations across a network of databases for T2DM (LEGEND-T2DM) initiative is a series of systematic, large-scale, multinational, real-world comparative cardiovascular effectiveness and safety studies of all four major second-line anti-hyperglycaemic agents, including sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 inhibitor, glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist, dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor and sulfonylureas. LEGEND-T2DM will leverage the Observational Health Data Sciences and Informatics (OHDSI) community that provides access to a global network of administrative claims and electronic health record data sources, representing 190 million patients in the USA and about 50 million internationally. LEGEND-T2DM will identify all adult, patients with T2DM who newly initiate a traditionally second-line T2DM agent. Using an active comparator, new-user cohort design, LEGEND-T2DM will execute all pairwise class-versus-class and drug-versus-drug comparisons in each data source, producing extensive study diagnostics that assess reliability and generalisability through cohort balance and equipoise to examine the relative risk of cardiovascular and safety outcomes. The primary cardiovascular outcomes include a composite of major adverse cardiovascular events and a series of safety outcomes. The study will pursue data-driven, large-scale propensity adjustment for measured confounding, a large set of negative control outcome experiments to address unmeasured and systematic bias. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION The study ensures data safety through a federated analytic approach and follows research best practices, including prespecification and full disclosure of results. LEGEND-T2DM is dedicated to open science and transparency and will publicly share all analytic code from reproducible cohort definitions through turn-key software, enabling other research groups to leverage our methods, data and results to verify and extend our findings.

Abstract
The significant growth in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) prevalence strikes a common threat to the healthcare and economic systems globally. Despite the availability of several anti-hyperglycaemic agents in the market, none can offer T2DM remission. These agents include the prominent incretin-based therapy such as glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor (GLP-1R) agonists and dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors that are designed primarily to promote GLP-1R activation. Recent interest in various therapeutically useful gastrointestinal hormones in T2DM and obesity has surged with the realisation that enteroendocrine L-cells modulate the different incretins secretion and glucose homeostasis, reflecting the original incretin definition. Targeting L-cells offers promising opportunities to mimic the benefits of bariatric surgery on glucose homeostasis, bodyweight management, and T2DM remission. Revising the fundamental incretin theory is an essential step for therapeutic development in this area. Therefore, the present review explores enteroendocrine L-cell hormone expression, the associated nutrient-sensing mechanisms, and other physiological characteristics. Subsequently, enteroendocrine L-cell line models and the latest L-cell targeted therapies are reviewed critically in this paper. Bariatric surgery, pharmacotherapy and new paradigm of L-cell targeted pharmaceutical formulation are discussed here, offering both clinician and scientist communities a new common interest to push the scientific boundary in T2DM therapy.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is an important risk factor for dementia. The possibility to mitigate this risk by controlling T2DM is compelling; however, different glucose-lowering drugs have different effects on the brain by virtue of their different mechanisms of action. The clinical and epidemiological data appear mixed, warranting careful critical evaluation of the human studies. Here we examine the evidence in the context of dementia prevention and treatment, both for people with and without T2DM. We discuss the evidence on this scaffold of research directions, identifying methodological complexities in the extant literature (e.g. comparator discrepancies, changes in the therapeutic landscape), and the implications of different outcome measures (e.g. neuropsychological). We consider possible implications of cerebrovascular protection vs. effects on progression of neurodegenerative proteinopathy, and we present a research roadmap for glucose-lowering drugs in cognitive neurology, including neuroimaging, and fluid biomarkers. We conclude that there is great potential to advance personalized strategies to prevent and treat dementia with glucose-lowering drugs.

Abstract
PURPOSE To date, no study has compared the effects of adding sodium glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors to the combination of metformin plus dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors to the effects of adding other conventional anti-diabetic drugs (ADDs) to the dual therapy. We aimed to compare the effect of adding SGLT-2 inhibitors with that of adding sulfonylurea (SU) in type 2 diabetes (T2D) patients inadequately controlled with metformin plus DPP-4 inhibitors. MATERIALS AND METHODS This study was designed to evaluate the non-inferiority of SGLT-2 inhibitor to SU as an add-on therapy to the dual combination of metformin plus DPP-4 inhibitors. A total of 292 T2D patients who started SU or SGLT-2 inhibitors as an add-on therapy to metformin plus DPP-4 inhibitors due to uncontrolled hyperglycemia, defined as glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) ≥7%, were recruited. After propensity score matching, 90 pairs of patients remained, and 12-week changes in HbA1c levels were reviewed to assess glycemic effectiveness. Data from these patients were analyzed retrospectively. RESULTS After 12 weeks of triple therapy, both groups showed significant changes in HbA1c levels, with a mean of -0.9% in each group. The inter-group difference was 0.01% [95% confidence interval (CI): -0.26-0.27], and the upper limit of the 95% CI was within the limit for non-inferiority (0.40%). There were no inter-group differences in the changes of liver enzyme levels and kidney function. CONCLUSION Adding SGLT-2 inhibitors is not inferior to adding SU as a third-line ADD to metformin plus DPP-4 inhibitor combination therapy.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Incretin-based therapies exert antihyperglycaemic effects in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) in a blood glucose concentration-dependent fashion. The first-in-class oral glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist semaglutide has potent effects on glycaemic and weight control, but little evidence has been published for the superiority of semaglutide for glycaemic control in patients after switching from a dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitor. Therefore, we aim to verify the efficacy of oral semaglutide in patients with T2D being treated with a DPP-4 inhibitor. METHODS AND ANALYSIS This study is a multicentre, prospective, randomised, open-label, parallel-group trial. In total, 172 participants with T2D who have been treated with a DPP-4 inhibitor for more than 12 weeks and who have a glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) level of 7.0%-9.9% will be randomised to continue using their existing DPP-4 inhibitor or switch to oral semaglutide for 24 weeks. Biochemical analyses and physical assessment will be performed, and adverse events will be recorded at baseline and at the end of the study. The primary endpoint will be the effect of oral semaglutide on the change in HbA1c. The secondary endpoints will be the mean changes in body weight, abdominal circumference, systolic and diastolic blood pressure (BP), pulse rate, the relationship between improvement of metabolic parameters including HbA1c and patient background characteristics, side effects and other laboratory parameters. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION This will be the first study to compare the effects of switching from a DPP-4 inhibitor to oral semaglutide on glycaemic control in patients with T2D. The results will be disseminated in peer-reviewed journals and at scientific conferences. Hokkaido University Certified Review Board (CRB no.1180001) has approved the protocol (no. 020-013). TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER UMIN000045270 in the University Hospital Medical Information Network; jRCT1011210032 in the Japan Registry of Clinical Trials.

Abstract
In recent years, important changes have occurred in the field of diabetes treatment. The focus of the treatment of diabetic patients has shifted from the control of blood glucose itself to the overall management of risk factors, while adjusting blood glucose goals according to individualization. In addition, regulators need to approve new antidiabetic drugs which have been tested for cardiovascular safety. Thus, the newest class of drugs has been shown to reduce major adverse cardiovascular events, including sodium-glucose transporter 2 (SGLT2) and some glucagon like peptide 1 receptor (GLP1) analog. As such, they have a prominent place in the hyperglycemia treatment algorithms. In recent years, the role of DPP4 inhibitors (DPP4i) has been modified. DPP4i have a favorable safety profile and anti-inflammatory profile, do not cause hypoglycemia or weight gain, and do not require dose escalation. In addition, it can also be applied to some types of chronic kidney disease patients and elderly patients with diabetes. Overall, DPP4i, as a class of safe oral hypoglycemic agents, have a role in the management of diabetic patients, and there is extensive experience in their use.

Abstract
AIMS To compare the efficacy and safety of antihyperglycemic agents, taken in combination with metformin, for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). METHODS A previous 2016 comprehensive search of Ovid MEDLINE, PubMed, and Cochrane CENTRAL was updated to October 2018, and a systematic review and network meta-analysis (NMA) was conducted. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of patients with T2DM taking an antihyperglycemic agent in combination with metformin were included. Bayesian NMA was performed to assess the relative efficacy and safety of the antihyperglycemic classes. RESULTS In total, 204 RCTs were included, which assessed the efficacy and safety of eight antihyperglycemic drug classes (i.e., sulfonylureas, meglitinides, alpha-glucosidase inhibitors, thiazolidinediones, basal and biphasic insulin, dipeptidyl peptidase 4 inhibitors, glucagon-like-peptide-1 receptor agonists and sodium-glucose cotransport-2 inhibitors). All drug classes significantly reduced haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) compared to metformin monotherapy (mean reduction from 0.50 to 0.92). The drug classes varied in their relative effects on hypoglycemia, body weight, body mass index, systolic and diastolic blood pressure, total cholesterol, high and low density lipoprotein cholesterol, and the classes had differing safety profiles on total adverse events, urogenital adverse events, heart failure, serious adverse events, and withdraw due to adverse events. CONCLUSIONS All eight antihyperglycemic drug classes, taken in combination with metformin, reduced HbA1c levels; however, the effects of the agents on other outcomes varied among the classes.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Low risk of hypoglycemia and weight neutrality have increased the administration of dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP-4) inhibitors in patients with T2DM in clinical practice. Currently Teneligliptin is prescribed as a second or third add on to the standard treatment with other classes of oral hypoglycemic agents (OHAs) to achieve targeted glycemic control in type 2 DM patients. METHODS An open label, interventional, single arm, 12 weeks study was conducted on160 patients with type 2 DM at MGM Medical College, Aurangabad with Teneligliptin 20 mg once a day as add on to the ongoing standard treatment with other classes of OHAs. Changes in glycemia parameters like FBS, PPBS HbA1C, body weight were assessed and twelve lead ECG was recorded with safety assessment at baseline and follow-up visits.. The QTc was calculated by using the Bazett's formula (QTc=QT/√RR).The study was conducted with an objective to assess efficacy and safety of Teneligliptin with respect to QT/QTc prolongation in patients with T2DM. RESULTS A significant reduction was seen in the glycemic parameters like FBS, PPBS HbA1C from the baseline values (P<0.001) but no significant change in the QT interval (P=0.9563) and QTc interval (P=0.5594) from the baseline to the end of study at12 weeks. CONCLUSION Tenelegliptin is a promising new drug to help to achieve targeted glycemic control in patients with T2DM without prolonging the QT/QTc interval.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS There is no published data on linagliptin, a dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor, on its cardiovascular risk reduction in Thai population. This study, therefore, aimed to investigate the effect of linagliptin on cardiovascular risk reduction in Thai patients with diabetes mellitus. METHODS Patient profiles of all patients treated with linagliptin in a hospital in Thailand were reviewed. Patients who had used linagliptin for at least 12 months were recruited for analysis. Their cardiovascular risk scores were calculated using the Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease Risk Estimator Plus tool and were compared between pre-treatment and 12-month post-treatment of linagliptin. RESULTS There were a total of 73 patients recruited for analysis. At 12 months of treatment, the results indicated no significant reduction in the cardiovascular risk score of all patients compared to pre-treatment (25.67% vs. 23.37%, p-value 0.442). The atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease risk reduction with linagliptin was significantly higher in patients with high baseline atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease risk and in the elderly population. A significant reduction in patients with ≥20% baseline cardiovascular risk score (6.36% decrease, p-value 0.017) was observed. Significant decreases in fasting blood sugar, haemoglobin A1c, and triglyceride were observed, but not in total and LDL-cholesterol levels. Additionally, HDL-cholesterol was significantly increased. CONCLUSIONS The mean cardiovascular risk score of all patients was not significantly changed with 12-month linagliptin treatment. However, linagliptin could significantly reduce the 10-year cardiovascular risk score in patients with ≥20% baseline risk. Also, patients with advanced age gained more benefit from linagliptin treatment. A limitation of this study was the drugs which might affect cardiovascular risk were not collected at 12-month post-treatment.

Abstract
AIMS/INTRODUCTION We investigated the utilization of healthcare resources in patients with type 2 diabetes treated with empagliflozin, a sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitor, versus dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors in clinical practice in Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan. MATERIALS AND METHODS We analyzed the Japanese Medical Data Vision database (December 2014-April 2018), the South Korean National Health Information Database, and the Taiwanese National Health Insurance claims database (both May 2016-December 2017). Patients with type 2 diabetes starting empagliflozin, 10 or 25 mg, or a DPP-4 inhibitor were matched 1:1 via propensity scores (PS). We compared inpatient care needs, emergency room (ER) visits, and outpatient visits between the treatment groups using Poisson regression and Cox proportional hazards models, pooled across countries by random-effects meta-analysis. RESULTS We identified 28,712 pairs of PS-matched patients; the mean follow-up was 5.7-6.8 months. Empagliflozin-treated patients had a 27% lower risk of all-cause hospitalization compared with DPP-4 inhibitor-treated patients (rate ratio [RR] 0.73, 95% CI 0.67-0.79), and 23% reduced risk for first hospitalization (hazard ratio 0.77, 95% CI 0.73-0.81). The risk for an ER visit was 12% lower with empagliflozin than with DPP-4 inhibitors (RR 0.88, 95% CI 0.83-0.94) while the risk for outpatient visit was 4% lower (RR 0.96, 95% CI 0.96-0.97). These findings were generally consistent across countries, regardless of baseline cardiovascular disease, and in the subgroup starting empagliflozin with the 10 mg dose. CONCLUSIONS Empagliflozin treatment was associated with lower inpatient care needs and other healthcare resource utilization than DPP-4 inhibitors in routine clinical practice in East Asia in this study.

Abstract
Obesity causes white and brown adipocyte dysfunction, reducing browning and stimulating whitening. Drugs that tackle adipocyte dysfunction through thermogenesis stimulation could be used to treat obesity. This study sought to address whether a combination of the PPAR-alpha agonist (WY14643) and DPP4i (linagliptin) potentiates browning and mitigates adipose tissue dysfunction, emphasizing the pathways related to browning induction and the underlying thermogenesis in high-fat-fed mice. Adult male C57BL/6 mice were randomly assigned to receive a control diet (C, 10% lipids) or a high-fat diet (HF, 50% lipids) for 12 weeks. Experiment 1 aimed to evaluate whether 5 weeks of combined therapy was able to potentiate browning using a five-group design: C, HF, HFW (monotherapy with WY14643, 2.5 mg/kg body mass), HFL (monotherapy with linagliptin, 15 mg/kg body mass), and HFC (a combination of both drugs). Experiment 2 further addressed the pathways involved in browning maximization using a four-group study design: C, CC (C diet plus the drug combination), HF, and HFC (HF diet plus the drug combination). The HF group showed overweight, oral glucose intolerance, sWAT adipocyte hypertrophy, and reduced numerical density of nuclei per area of BAT confirming whitening. Only the combined treatment normalized these parameters in addition to body temperature increase, browning induction, and whitening rescue. The high expression of thermogenic marker genes parallel to reduced expression of inflammatory and endoplasmic reticulum stress genes mediated the beneficial findings. Hence, the PPAR-alpha agonist and DPP-4i combination is a promising target for obesity control by inducing functional brown adipocytes, browning of sWAT, and enhanced adaptive thermogenesis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Clinical trials indicate the efficacy of add-on therapy using incretin-related drugs to treat type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) inadequately controlled by insulin. However, heterogeneity exists among these studies. Baseline body mass index (BMI) accounts for the heterogeneity of add-on therapy with dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors and the associated higher BMI with a lower efficacy. The efficacy of add-on therapy with glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists remains unclear. METHODS We performed a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials of ≥12 weeks reporting the endpoint of adjusted mean change in hemoglobin A1c levels (AMΔHbA1c) or hypoglycemia incidence. Patients with type 2 DM treated with insulin alone or with metformin for at least 8 weeks before the study treatment were included. The intervention group received liraglutide co-administered with insulin or a fixed-dose combination. The control group received a placebo or insulin. Covariates included five baseline parameters (HbA1c, fasting plasma glucose, BMI, type 2 DM duration, and treatment duration). RESULTS Seven studies (2067 patients) were selected. AMΔHbA1c was -1.00% (95% confidence interval [CI]: -1.21 to -0.78, I2 = 74.7%). The odds ratio for hypoglycemia incidence was 0.97 (95% CI: 0.50-1.87, I2 = 81.9%). Covariates did not account for the heterogeneity in AMΔHbA1c or hypoglycemia incidence. CONCLUSIONS Liraglutide add-on therapy reduced HbA1c levels without increasing hypoglycemia incidence, independent of BMI, in insulin non-responders with type 2 DM. GLP-1 receptor agonists may be more suitable than DPP-4 inhibitors for add-on therapy in patients with high BMI. REGISTRATION NUMBER PROSPERO #CRD42021178888.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Assessment of diabetes with daily blood glucose fluctuations including peaks and nadirs forms the crux of the modern management. Use of glycemic variability (GV) as a parameter to assess these fluctuations is emerging. It is important to determine the hyperglycemic and hypoglycemic episodes which are the culprits for increasing glycemic variation. Diabetes mellitus patients follow different clinical trajectories which can be traced by the ambulatory glucose profile (AGP) obtained from flash glucose monitoring system (FGMS). MATERIAL This comparative observational study enrolled 106 adult (>18 years) type 2 diabetes patients with HbA1c<8%. Patients were divided into two groups (group A & group B) with 53 patients each. Group A included patients on OAD's (oral antidiabetic drug) with insulin and Group B included patients on OAD's without insulin. The patients were put on FGMS for 14 days and their AGP was analysed. Hyperglycemic episodes (level 1- >180 mg/dl, level 2- >250 mg/dl) and hypoglycemic episodes (level 1- 54-70 mg/dl, level 2- <54 mg/dl) were determined between the groups. OBSERVATION Group A patients had significantly higher (29.99%) total number of hyperglycemic episodes (Level 1+ Level 2) as compared with group B (9.08%) (p <0.0001). Amongst group A, proportion of patients with total number of hyperglycemic episodes was significantly higher in insulin only subgroup (58.11%) followed by insulin +metformin+ 1 OAD (29.14%) & insulin+ metformin (26.82%) (p <0.0001). Amongst group B, total number of hyperglycemic episodes were found to be significantly higher with metformin only subgroup (10.19%) followed by metformin + 1 OAD (9.72%) & metformin + >1 OAD (8.1%) (p<0.0001). Amongst the add on OAD's, sulfonylurea contributed to 61.07% hyperglycemic episodes in group A & 11.63% in group B which was statistically more than DPP-4 inhibitors with 14.91% & 2.84% respectively (p <0.0001). Total number of hypoglycemic episodes seen in group A patients (8.66%) were significantly less as compared with group B (13.27%) (p<0.0001). Sulfonylurea contributed to 7.5% hypoglycemic episodes in group A & 13.2% in group B which was statistically more than DPP-4 inhibitors with 6.49% & 12.35% respectively when added to metformin (p<0.0001). CONCLUSION Amongst the OAD's used in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients in this study, total number of hyperglycemic and hypoglycemic episodes were found to be more in patients taking sulfonylurea as compared with DPP4 inhibitors when used in combination with metformin with or without insulin.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Diabetes mellitus implies a group of common metabolic disorders that share a phenotype of hyperglycemia. Peripheral insulin resistance and impaired insulin secretion forms two legs of this common, globally important non communicable disorder. Adiponectin is a hormone released by adipocytes which aids in enhancing insulin sensitivity, decreasing inflammatory mediators. Baseline adiponectin can predict diabetes and change in its value with change in metabolic parameters highlights the gravity of this molecule in more refined diagnosis and treatment of diabetes. AIMS The objective was to ascertain change in adiponectin value in diabetics who were given either DPP-4 inhibitors or SU group drugs. Another objective was to find out correlation of serum adiponectin levels with various parameters involved in sugar and fat metabolism such as FBS, PPBS, HbA1c, LDL, HDL, VLDL, TG. MATERIAL Total of 50 participants were taken, out of which 40 were diabetics and 10 were controls. They were selected using inclusion and exclusion criteria. Diabetics were divided into two arms with 20 participants each (a. dpp group b.su group). Clinical history, examination, sample collection was done. Serum adiponectin assay was performed using RayBio ELISA kit. OBSERVATION Serum adiponectin levels in dpp group was higher at end of third month as compared to 0 month (45.9 +/- 5.9 vs. 39.8 +/- 4.1 mcg/dl; p<0.05). Likewise, adiponectin levels in su group was higher at end of third month as compared to 0 month (43.9 +/- 3.6 vs. 39.8 +/- 3.5 mcg/dl; p<0.05). CONCLUSION Improvement in glycemic parameters (HbA1c, FBS, PPBS) is associated with rise in serum levels of adiponectin. General population possess higher levels of adiponectin as compared to diabetics. Adiponectin can serve as a marker for early diagnosis to diabetes. It can also aid in targeted therapy for metabolic disorders.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is one of the most popular chronic diseases around the whole world. To improve the compliance of patients, long-acting antidiabetic drugs needed to be developed. Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors are becoming increasingly important in the T2DM treatment due to the favorable properties. In the present study, a series of new substituted dihydropyrido [4',3':3,4] pyrazolo [1,5-a] pyrimidin-9(10H)-yl)-2-(2,5-difluorophenyl)tetrahydro-2H-pyran-3-amine were designed and synthesized as potent DPP-4 inhibitors. All compounds were characterized by 1H NMR, 13C NMR and HRMS and were evaluated in vitro. The inhibitory activity ranged from 0.43 to 12.70 μM while the inhibitory activity of positive control (omarigliptin) was 3.63 μM on DPP-4 in Caco-2 cells. Then pharmacokinetic studies were carried out in rats and compound 6c was finally selected for the further study because of its better pharmacokinetic profile. Additionally, preclinical pharmacological study of compound 6c exhibited extraordinary efficacy in vivo and good safety profile. In conclusion, compound 6c was considered as a promising DPP-4 inhibitor, which could be taken once a week or once every two weeks for the treatment of T2DM. More comprehensive researches will be carried out in the future for the further development of compound 6c.

Abstract
CONTEXT Fracture risk is underestimated in people with type 2 diabetes (T2D). OBJECTIVE To investigate the longitudinal relationship of glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) and common medications on fracture risk in people with T2D. METHODS This retrospective population-based cohort study was conducted using de-identified claims and electronic health record data obtained from the OptumLabs Data Warehouse for the period January 1, 2007, to September 30, 2015. For each individual, the study was conducted within a 2-year HbA1c observation period and a 2-year fracture follow-up period. A cohort of 157 439 individuals with T2D [age ≥ 55 years with mean HbA1c value ≥ 6%] were selected from 4 018 250 US Medicare Advantage/Commercial enrollees with a T2D diagnosis. All fractures and fragility fractures were measured. RESULTS With covariates adjusted, poor glycemic control in T2D individuals was associated with an 29% increase of all fracture risk, compared with T2D individuals who had adequate glycemic control (HR: 1.29; 95% CI, 1.22-1.36). Treatment with metformin (HR: 0.88; 95% CI, 0.85-0.92) and DPP4 inhibitors (HR: 0.93; 95% CI, 0.88-0.98) was associated with a reduced all fracture risk, while insulin (HR: 1.26; 95% CI, 1.21-1.32), thiazolidinediones (HR: 1.23; 95% CI, 1.18-1.29), and meglitinides (HR: 1.12; 95% CI, 1.00-1.26) were associated with an increased all fracture risk (All P value < 0.05). Bisphosphonates were associated similarly with increased fracture risk in the T2D and nondiabetic groups. CONCLUSION Longitudinal 2-year HbA1c is independently associated with elevated all fracture risk in T2D individuals during a 2-year follow-up period. Metformin and DPP4 inhibitors can be used for management of T2D fracture risk.

Abstract
The pathophysiology of sepsis involves inflammation and hypercoagulability, which lead to microvascular thrombosis and compromised organ perfusion. Dipeptidyl peptidase (DPP)-4 inhibitors, e.g., linagliptin, are commonly used anti-diabetic drugs known to exert anti-inflammatory effects. However, whether these drugs confer an anti-thrombotic effect that preserves organ perfusion in sepsis remains to be investigated. In the present study, human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) were treated with linagliptin to examine its anti-inflammatory and anti-thrombotic effects under tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α treatment. To validate findings from in vitro experiments and provide in vivo evidence for the identified mechanism, a mouse model of lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced systemic inflammatory response syndrome was used, and pulmonary microcirculatory thrombosis was measured. In TNF-α-treated HUVECs and LPS-injected mice, linagliptin suppressed expressions of interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1) via a nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB)–dependent pathway. Linagliptin attenuated tissue factor expression via the Akt/endothelial nitric oxide synthase pathway. In LPS-injected mice, linagliptin pretreatment significantly reduced thrombosis in the pulmonary microcirculation. These anti-inflammatory and anti-thrombotic effects were independent of blood glucose level. Together the present results suggest that linagliptin exerts protective effects against endothelial inflammation and microvascular thrombosis in a mouse model of sepsis.

Abstract
Dipeptidyl-peptidase IV (DPP4), originally identified as an aminopeptidase in 1960s, is an ubiquitously expressed protease presented as either a membrane-bound or soluble form. DPP4 cleaves dipeptide off from the N-terminal of its substrates, altering the bioactivity of its substrates. Subsequent studies reveal that DPP4 is also involved in various cellular processes by directly binding to a number of ligands, including adenosine deaminase, CD45, fibronectin, plasminogen, and caveolin-1. In recent years, many novel functions of DPP4, such as promoting fibrosis and mediating virus entry, have been discovered. Due to its implication in fibrotic response and immunoregulation, increasing studies are focusing on the potential role of DPP4 in inflammatory disorders. As a moonlighting protein, DPP4 possesses multiple functions in different types of cells, including both enzymatic and non-enzymatic functions. However, most of the review articles on the role of DPP4 in autoimmune disease were focused on the association between DPP4 enzymatic inhibitors and the risk of autoimmune disease. An updated comprehensive summary of DPP4’s immunoregulatory actions including both enzymatic dependent and independent functions is needed. In this article, we will review the recent advances of DPP4 in immune regulation and autoimmune rheumatic disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Vildagliptin, a dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitor to treat type 2 diabetes mellitus, is available as immediate release (IR) tablets administered at 50 mg twice daily (BID). A 100 mg modified release (MR) formulation was developed for once daily (QD) dosing. This study aimed to compare the therapeutic equivalence of vildagliptin 100 mg MR QD (test) and 50 mg IR BID (reference) formulations at steady state under fasting conditions. METHODS This was an open-label, randomized, two-period, single- and multiple-dose, two-way crossover, steady state study conducted in healthy adult subjects. Both vildagliptin formulations were administered for six days. Endpoints included pharmacodynamic equivalence, pharmacokinetic parameters, and tolerability of both formulations. RESULTS Thirty subjects were enrolled and 26 completed both treatments. Maximum plasma concentration and exposure achieved with test was lower than reference formulation on day 1 and 6. The DPP-4 enzyme inhibition over time (DPP-4-AUEC0-24) was comparable between the formulations. Both formulations were well tolerated. CONCLUSION This study confirms the therapeutic equivalence of vildagliptin IR and MR formulations for DPP-4 enzyme inhibition over time. The study supports vildagliptin 100 mg MR QD as a useful therapeutic alternative to 50 mg IR BID formulation to possibly improve treatment adherence and patient compliance. Long-term safety of the vildagliptin 100 mg MR QD formulation is not evaluated in this study.

Abstract
Although the clinical questions of the recent glucose-lowering trials are principally oriented towards preventing macrovascular events, an updated review regarding renal outcome prevention is lacking. We assessed the impact of different antihyperglycemic classes on kidney damage progression. A systematic review and meta-analysis was performed by searching PubMed, Cochrane Collaboration Library, Medline, and previous overviews through June 2021 (any language) for earlier and contemporary glucose-lowering trials, including patients with, but not limited to, type 2 diabetes mellitus vs. placebo or less intense treatment. Incidences of kidney function worsening and macroalbuminuria development was extracted, and risk ratios and 95% confidence intervals (CI) under the random-effects model were calculated. The association between outcome reductions and glycohemoglobin (HBA1c) reductions was investigated through the meta-regression analyses. Among 27 eligible trials (n = 198,532 patients) an averaged HBA1c reduction of 0.6 ± 0.3% was followed by a reduction of 17% (95% CI, 8-25%) in worsening of kidney function, and of 25% (95% CI, 19-32%) in macroalbuminuria. Analog of human glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP1)-agonists, and sodium-glucose cotransporter (SGLT2)-inhibitors, considered separately, compared with placebo, were associated with a significant reduction of both renal outcomes, at variance with dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP4)-inhibitors, where no outcome change was observed. Logarithmic risk ratios of macroalbuminuria were related to HBA1c reductions, in contrast to the worsening of kidney function related to systolic blood pressure reduction. Worsening of kidney function and macroalbuminuria development were reduced following glucose-lowering. GLP1 agonists and SGLPT2 inhibitors were associated with protection against both outcomes, while DPP4 inhibitors do not provide renal protection.

Abstract
Aim: To assess the prescribing patterns and response to different classes of antihyperglycemic agents in novel clusters of type 2 diabetes (T2D) described in India. Materials and Methods: We attempted to replicate the earlier described clusters of T2D, in 32,867 individuals with new-onset T2D (within 2 years of diagnosis) registered between October 2013 and December 2020 at 15 diabetes clinics located across India, by means of k-means clustering utilizing 6 clinically relevant variables. Individuals who had follow-up glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) up to 2 years were included for the drug response analysis (n = 13,247). Results: Among the 32,867 participants included in the study, 20,779 (63.2%) were males. The average age at diagnosis was 45 years and mean HbA1c at baseline was 8.9%. The same four clusters described in India earlier were replicated. Forty percent of the study participants belonged to the mild age-related diabetes cluster, followed by insulin-resistant obese diabetes (27%), severe insulin-deficient diabetes (21%), and combined insulin-resistant and insulin-deficient diabetes (12%) clusters. The most frequently used antihyperglycemic agents were sulfonylureas, metformin, and dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors apart from insulin. While there were significant differences in HbA1c reduction between drugs across clusters, these were largely driven by differences in the baseline (pretreatment) HbA1c. Conclusions: In this new cohort, we were able to reliably replicate the four subtypes of T2D earlier described in Asian Indians. Prescribing patterns show limited usage of newer antihyperglycemic agents across all clusters. Randomized clinical trials are required to establish differential drug responses between clusters.

Abstract
IMPORTANCE Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist use is associated with reduced mortality and improved cardiovascular outcomes in the general population with diabetes. Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors are commonly used antidiabetic agents for patients with advanced-stage chronic kidney disease (CKD). The association of these 2 drug classes with outcomes among patients with diabetes and advanced-stage CKD or end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) is not well understood. OBJECTIVE To assess whether use of GLP-1 receptor agonists in a population with diabetes and advanced-stage CKD or ESKD is associated with better outcomes compared with use of DPP-4 inhibitors. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS This retrospective cohort study used data on patients with type 2 diabetes and stage 5 CKD or ESKD obtained from the National Health Insurance Research Database of Taiwan. The study was conducted between January 1, 2012, and December 31, 2018. Data were analyzed from June 2020 to July 2021. EXPOSURES Treatment with GLP-1 receptor agonists compared with treatment with DPP-4 inhibitors. MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES All-cause mortality, sepsis- and infection-related mortality, and mortality related to major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events were compared between patients treated with GLP-1 receptor agonists and patients treated with DPP-4 inhibitors. Propensity score weighting was used to mitigate the imbalance among covariates between the groups. RESULTS Of 27 279 patients included in the study, 26 578 were in the DPP-4 inhibitor group (14 443 [54.34%] male; mean [SD] age, 65 [13] years) and 701 in the GLP-1 receptor agonist group (346 [49.36%] male; mean [SD] age, 59 [13] years). After weighting, the use of GLP-1 receptor agonists was associated with lower all-cause mortality (hazard ratio [HR], 0.79; 95% CI, 0.63-0.98) and lower sepsis- and infection-related mortality (HR, 0.61; 95% CI, 0.40-0.91). Subgroup analysis demonstrated a lower risk of mortality associated with use of GLP-1 receptor agonists compared with DDP-4 inhibitors among patients with cerebrovascular disease (HR, 0.33; 95% CI, 0.12-0.86) than among those without cerebrovascular disease (HR, 0.89; 95% CI, 0.71-1.12) (P = .04 for interaction). CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE Treatment with GLP-1 receptor agonists was associated with lower all-cause mortality among patients with type 2 diabetes, advanced-stage CKD, and ESKD than was treatment with DPP-4 inhibitors. Additional well-designed, prospective studies are needed to confirm the potential benefit of GLP-1 receptor agonist treatment for patients with advanced CKD or ESKD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This consensus aims to clarify the role of Dipeptidyl Peptidase-4 inhibitors (iDPP-4) in managing patients with diabetes during the COVID-19 pandemic. MATERIALS AND METHODS A PubMed bibliographic search was carried out (December 2019-February 2021). Oxford methodology was used for the evaluation of evidence and possible recommendations were established by consensus. RESULTS Diabetes appears to be an independent factor in COVID-19 disease (evidence 2b). No increased risk of contagion with iDPP-4 is demonstrated (evidence 2b), and its use has been shown to be safe (evidence 2b). The use of this drug may present a specific benefit in reducing mortality, particularly in in-hospital use (evidence 2a), reducing admission to intensive care units (evidence 2b) and the need for mechanical ventilation (evidence 2b). CONCLUSIONS The use of iDPP-4 appears to be safe in patients with COVID-19, and quality studies are needed to clarify their possible advantages further.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS This study aimed to assess the effects of vildagliptin on the prevention of cardiovascular diseases in Thai patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus using the Thai Cardiovascular Risk Score. METHODS All patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus who used vildagliptin at a secondary hospital in Thailand were screened and recruited. The relevant variables were obtained from patient medication charts at the first visit on which the patients were prescribed vildagliptin and from the 6-month, 12-month, and 18-month post-treatment visits. The Thai Cardiovascular Risk Score was calculated and monitored as a primary outcome, whereas changes in separate cardiometabolic parameters were assessed as secondary outcomes. RESULTS Of the 321 patients screened, only 95 were recruited for the analysis. The average 10-year cardiovascular risks of patients increased from 19.65% at baseline to 20.74%, 20.69%, and 23.78% at 6, 12, and 18 months post treatment, respectively. However, a better trend of reduction in cardiovascular risk was observed in patients with a high baseline cardiovascular risk. The glucose-lowering effects of vildagliptin were significantly observed 12 months of treatment onwards, but non-significant changes were found in lipid and blood pressure levels as well as body mass index. CONCLUSION Vildagliptin provided a promising glucose-lowering effect in Thai patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. However, the mean 10-year cardiovascular risk did not significantly decrease. However, a negative correlation between cardiovascular risk reduction and baseline cardiovascular risk was observed in this study. Low sample size was a major limitation of this study.

Abstract
The comparative effectiveness of oral hypoglycemic agents on glycemic control and chronic complications in clinical practice is unknown in Korea. This study aimed to compare glycemic control and the incidence of hypoglycemia and chronic complications among adult patients with type 2 diabetes prescribed metformin, dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors (DPP4I), and sulfonylurea (SU) as monotherapy or dual combination therapy.We retrospectively analyzed propensity-matched cohort data from 3 national university hospitals in Korea. All electronic health records were transformed into a unified Observational Medical Outcomes Partnership Common Data Model and analyzed using ATLAS, an open-source analytical tool, and R software. Glycemic control was assessed as the first observation of a reduction in glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) level below 7% after prescription of the drug. Differences in the incidence of chronic complications were compared based on the first observation of each complication. Glycemic control and chronic complications were evaluated in patients who maintained the same prescription for at least 3 and 12 months, respectively.Patients who received metformin had lower hazard of reaching HbA1c levels below 7% as compared with those who received SU, and had higher hazard compared with those who received DPP4I (hazard ratio [HR], 0.86; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.75-0.98; and HR, 1.68; 95% CI, 1.42-1.99, respectively). The incidence of hypoglycemia was significantly higher in the SU group than in the metformin and DPP4I groups (metformin vs SU; HR, 0.30; 95% CI, 0.21-0.43; SU vs DPP4I; HR, 4.42; 95% CI, 2.35-8.31). Metformin + DPP4I had similar hazard of reaching HbA1c levels below 7% compared with metformin + SU (HR, 1.19; 95% CI, 0.99-1.43) and the incidence of hypoglycemia was significantly lower in the metformin + DPP4I group (HR 0.13; 95% CI 0.05-0.30). There was no significant difference in the analysis of the occurrence of chronic complications.SU followed by metformin was effective, and both drugs showed an increased hazard of reaching HbA1c levels below 7% compared with DPP4I. Metformin + DPP4I is comparatively effective for HbA1c level reduction below 7% compared with metformin + SU. Hypoglycemia was high in the SU-containing therapy.

Abstract
Clinical trials have demonstrated cardiovascular benefits of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) and glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RA). However, their impact on all-cause and cause-specific hospitalization in real-world practice remains unclear. We identified patients with diabetes who initiated SGLT2i (n = 2,492), GLP-1RA (n = 1,982), or dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors (DPP4i, n = 2,492) between 2015 and 2018 in Geisinger Health System. We examined all-cause hospitalization (net benefit indicator) and cardiovascular disease (CVD) hospitalization (CV benefit indicator), as well as non-CVD hospitalization (harm indicator), using Cox proportional hazards regression. During a median follow-up of 16 months, SGLT2i and GLP-1RA were associated with lower risk of all-cause hospitalization (hazard ratio [HR] 0.85, 95% CI 0.75 to 0.95 for SGLT2i; HR 0.89, 95% CI 0.78 to 0.98 for GLP-1RA), as well as CVD hospitalization (HR 0.61, 95% CI 0.47 to 0.79) for SGLT2i; HR 0.77, 95% CI 0.60 to 0.99 for GLP-1RA) compared with DPP4i. The risks of all-cause and CVD hospitalization were similar between SGLT2i and GLP-1RA. SGLT2i was associated with substantially lower risk of myocardial infarction and heart failure hospitalization compared with DPP4i and lower risk of heart failure hospitalization compared with GLP-1RA. The risk of non-CVD hospitalization did not differ among the treatment groups. These results from real-world comparison further encourage SGLT2i and GLP-1RA use in routine diabetes care, particularly among patients at high risk of cardiovascular events.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To examine the prescription pattern of the different dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors (DPP4is), depending on the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) under real-world clinical practice conditions. METHOD This was a descriptive, observational study using a population database (SIDIAP Catalonia). Subjects diagnosed with T2DM with kidney function assessed and on active treatment with DPP4is were enrolled. Patients were included at the time of the measurement of eGFR (CKD-epi) and were monitored for 6 months after enrolment. For each subject, the prescribed daily dose (PDD) of DPP4i, the theoretical dose according to the degree of renal failure established by the recommendations in the summary of product characteristics (DDD-adj), and the PDR ratio (PDD/DDD-adj) were estimated. A subject was considered overtreated if his/her RDR was greater than 1.2 (>20%). RESULTS The study sample consisted of 72,135 subjects with a mean age of 69.7 (±11.6) years and 55.9% males. The proportion of patients overtreated varied depending on the type of DPP4i and the renal function stage. Overall, overdosage was recorded in 7.15% of all DPP4i treatments. In advanced stages (IIIb, IV, and V), overdosage was much higher (36.8% for all DPP4is, and 58.7% if linagliptin is excluded). DISCUSSION Under real-world clinical practice conditions, more than one third of T2DM patients with advanced renal failure were overdosed with DPP4is because the doses were not adequately adjusted to the glomerular filtration rate of each patient.

Abstract
An increased risk of lower limb amputations (LLA) has been suspected with the use of sodium-glucose cotransporter type 2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) after the publication of CANVAS with canagliflozin compared with placebo. A more than twofold increase of the risk of LLA in SGLT2i users compared with patients treated with glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) has been reported in a Scandinavian cohort observational study, yet other observational studies gave less alarming findings. Our meta-analysis of 12 retrospective cohorts revealed significant increase in LLA with a HR 1.15 (95% CI 1.05-1.24, I² 69%) when comparing SGLT2i users versus GLP-1RA users. However, another meta-analysis of observational studies showed no increased risk when SGLT2is were compared to dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors (DPP-4is) and some data showed a lower incidence of LLA in patients treated with GLP-1RAs compared to those treated with DPP-4is. When summarizing all available data with direct and indirect comparisons, a conclusion emerges that SGLT2is do not increase the risk of LLA but rather that GLP-1RAs may reduce such a risk.

Abstract
AIM To determine what the variation was in the initial use of vildagliptin in patients with type 2 diabetes following approval of open access funding in October 2018, including by ethnicity, gender, age, funding model and patient HbA1c levels. METHODS Data were collected from 31 general practices for all adult patients with type 2 diabetes. National Health Index-matched medication data were obtained from the national Pharmaceutical Collection. Patients were included for analysis if they had received at least one diabetes medication in the 12 months prior to funding approval for vildagliptin. The proportion of patients who initiated vildagliptin therapy following open access funding approval was then evaluated, as was the time taken until the first dispensing (days since funding approval). RESULTS A total of 724 of 3,971 (18.2%) of patients initiated vildagliptin therapy; mean time to first dispensing was 192.1±112.4 days. In logistic regression, Asian patients were more likely and Māori less likely to receive vildagliptin than Europeans. Younger patients and those with an HbA1c of >64mmol/mol were also more likely to initiate therapy. Vildagliptin use by general practice ranged from 0.0-82.4%. CONCLUSIONS Despite open access funding, there was inequity in the initial use of vildagliptin. Substantial variation by general practice indicates that practitioner education may be needed to ensure appropriate and early adoption of new diabetes medications.

Abstract
Patients with diabetes are more likely to be infected with Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), and the risk of death is significantly higher than ordinary patients. Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP4) is one of the functional receptor of human coronavirus. Exploring the relationship between diabetes mellitus targets and DPP4 is particularly important for the management of patients with diabetes and COVID-19. We intend to study the protein interaction through the protein interaction network in order to find a new clue for the management of patients with diabetes with COVID-19. Diabetes mellitus targets were obtained from GeneCards database. Targets with a relevance score exceeding 20 were included, and DPP4 protein was added manually. The initial protein interaction network was obtained through String. The targets directly related to DPP4 were selected as the final analysis targets. Importing them into String again to obtain the protein interaction network. Module identification, gene ontology (GO) analysis and Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes (KEGG) pathway analysis were carried out respectively. The impact of DPP4 on the whole network was analyzed by scoring the module where it located. 43 DPP4-related proteins were finally selected from the diabetes mellitus targets and three functional modules were found by the cluster analysis. Module 1 was involved in insulin secretion and glucagon signaling pathway, module 2 and module 3 were involved in signaling receptor binding. The scoring results showed that LEP and apoB in module 1 were the highest, and the scores of INS, IL6 and ALB of cross module associated proteins of module 1 were the highest. DPP4 is widely associated with key proteins in diabetes mellitus. COVID-19 may affect DPP4 in patients with diabetes mellitus, leading to high mortality of diabetes mellitus combined with COVID-19. DPP4 inhibitors and IL-6 antagonists can be considered to reduce the effect of COVID-19 infection on patients with diabetes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D) is associated with an increased fracture risk. There is little evidence for the effects of glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RA) on fracture risk in T2D. We aimed to investigate the risk of major osteoporotic fractures (MOF) for treatment with GLP-1RA compared to dipeptidyl peptidase 4 inhibitors (DPP-4i) as add-on therapies to metformin. METHODS We conducted a population-based cohort study using Danish national health registries. Diagnoses were obtained from discharge diagnosis codes (ICD-10 and ICD-8-system) from the Danish National Patient Registry, and all redeemed drug prescriptions were obtained from the Danish National Prescription Registry (ATC classification system). Subjects treated with metformin in combination with either GLP-1RA or DPP-4i were enrolled from 2007 to 2018. Subjects were propensity-score matched 1:1 based on age, sex, and index date. MOF were defined as hip, vertebral, humerus, or forearm fractures. A Cox proportional hazards model was utilized to estimate hazard rate ratios (HR) for MOF, and survival curves were plotted using the Kaplan-Meier estimator. In addition, Aalen's Additive Hazards model was applied to examine additive rather than relative hazard effects while allowing time-varying effects. RESULTS In total, 42,816 individuals treated with either combination were identified and included. After matching, 32,266 individuals were included in the main analysis (16,133 in each group). Median follow-up times were 642 days and 529 days in the GLP-1RA and DPP-4i group, respectively. We found a crude HR of 0.89 [0.76-1.05] for MOF with GLP-1RA compared to DPP-4i. In the fully adjusted model, we obtained an unaltered HR of 0.86 [0.73-1.03]. For the case of hip fracture, we found a crude HR of 0.68 [0.49-0.96] and a similar adjusted HR. Fracture risk was lower in the GLP-1RA group when examining higher daily doses of the medications, when allowing follow-up to continue after medication change, and when examining hip fractures, specifically. Additional subgroup- and sensitivity analyses yielded results similar to the main analysis. CONCLUSION In our primary analysis, we did not observe a significantly different risk of MOF between treatment with GLP-1RA and DPP-4i. We conclude that GLP-1RA are safe in terms of fracture.

Abstract
Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP4) is a ubiquitously occurring protease involved in various physiological and pathological processes ranging from glucose homeostasis, immunoregulation, inflammation to tumorigenesis. Recently, the benefits of DPP4 inhibitors as novel hypoglycemic agents on bone metabolism have attracted extensive attraction in many studies, indicating that DPP4 inhibitors may regulate bone homeostasis. The effects of DPP4 on bone metabolism are still unclear. This paper thoroughly reviews the potential mechanisms of DPP4 for interaction with adipokines, bone cells, bone immune cells, and cytokines in skeleton system. This literature review shows that the increased DPP4 activity may indirectly promote bone resorption and inhibit bone formation, increasing the risk of osteoporosis. Thus, bone metabolic balance can be improved by decreasing DPP4 activities. The substantial evidence collected and analyzed in this review supports this implication.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We assessed the effects of sodium glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) versus dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors (DPP4is) in a large real-world Asian cohort with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and performed a systematic review with integrating the present study findings to provide up-to-date evidence from the Asian perspective. METHODS New users of SGLT2is or DPP4is were identified from the Taiwan's National Health Insurance Research Database and followed until 2018. Primary outcomes were hospitalization for heart failure (HHF) and three-point major adverse cardiovascular event (3P-MACE; namely, myocardial infarction [MI], stroke, or cardiovascular death). Other outcomes included all-cause death, chronic kidney disease (CKD), amputation, and hospitalized hypoglycemia. Subdistribution hazard models were employed to assess treatment-associated clinical outcomes. RESULTS A total of 21,329 SGLT2i and DPP4i propensity-score-matched pairs were analyzed. SGLT2is versus DPP4is showed lower risks of HHF (hazard ratio [95% CI]: 0.52 [0.45-0.59]), 3P-MACE (0.62 [0.55-0.70]), MI (0.63 [0.50-0.79]), stroke (0.60 [0.51-0.70]), all-cause death (0.57 [0.49-0.67]), CKD (0.46 [0.43-0.50]), amputation (0.64 [0.42-0.98]), and hospitalized hypoglycemia (0.54 [0.45-0.64]). Our results were consistent with findings from a systematic review. CONCLUSION Among Asian patients with T2D, SGLT2is versus DPP4is showed benefits for several clinical outcomes. More research is warranted to explore the heterogeneous treatment effects of SGLT2is and DPP4is by race/ethnicity.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To analyze the efficacy and safety of three novel hypoglycemic agents, glucagon-like peptidyl-1 receptor agonists, dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors (DPP-4i), and sodium-glucose cotransporter two inhibitors (SGLT2i) in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients with severe chronic kidney disease (CKD) (defined in this study as CKD stage 3 B or above, eGFR< 45 mL/min/1.73 m²) based on important RCTs to date. METHODS We retrieved studies published before April 15, 2022, from EMBASE, PubMed/MEDLINE, Cochrane Library and included randomized controlled trials in which the participants were patients with T2DM and severe CKD. Frequentist methods were used in the network meta-analysis. RESULTS Nineteen studies of 17 trials involving 6,607 participants met our inclusion criteria. Compared with placebo and DPP-4i, SGLT2i demonstrated a significantly lower incidence of serious renal-related adverse events or renal death, and the odds ratios (OR) were 0.69 (0.58, 0.81) and 0.63 (0.40, 1.00), respectively. Compared with placebo, SGLT2i significantly reduced the incidence of all-cause death and severe AE; the ORs were 0.72 (0.55, 0.94) and 0.65 (0.47, 0.91), respectively. Compared with placebo, DPP-4i significantly reduced the level of HbA1c, and the difference between mean changes from baseline was -0.36 (-0.63, -0.09). CONCLUSIONS Patients with T2DM complicated by severe CKD may benefit from SGLT2i. SGLT2i can reduce the incidence of serious renal-related AEs or renal death, as well as severe side effects, and has a positive effect on the patient's renal function and survival, even for only CKD patients can also be considered. GLP-1 RAs can be used as a supplement if blood sugar control is poor. For dialysis patients, DPP-4i can assist blood glucose control, reduce insulin dosage, and reduce the risk of hypoglycemia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Understanding which group of patients with type 2 diabetes will have the most glucose lowering response to certain medications (which target different aspects of glucose metabolism) is the first step in precision medicine. AIMS We hypothesized that people with type 2 diabetes who generally have high insulin resistance, such as people of Māori/Pacific ethnicity, and those with obesity and/or hypertriglyceridemia (OHTG), would have greater glucose-lowering by pioglitazone (an insulin sensitizer) versus vildagliptin (an insulin secretagogue). METHODS A randomised, open-label, two-period crossover trial was conducted in New Zealand. Adults with type 2 diabetes, HbA1c>58mmol/mol (>7.5%), received 16 weeks of either pioglitazone (30mg) or vildagliptin (50mg) daily, then switched to the other medication over for another 16 weeks of treatment. Differences in HbA1c were tested for interaction with ethnicity or OHTG, controlling for baseline HbA1c using linear mixed models. Secondary outcomes included weight, blood pressure, side-effects and diabetes treatment satisfaction. RESULTS 346 participants were randomised (55% Māori/Pacific) between February 2019 to March 2020. HbA1c after pioglitazone was lower than after vildagliptin (mean difference -4.9mmol/mol [0.5%]; 95% CI -6.3, -3.5; p<0.0001). Primary intention-to-treat analysis showed no significant interaction effect by Māori/Pacific vs other ethnicity (1.5mmol/mol [0.1%], 95% CI -0.8, 3.7), and per-protocol analysis (-1.2mmol/mol [0.1%], 95% CI -4.1, 1.7). An interaction effect (-4.7mmol/mol [0.5%], 95% CI -8.1, -1.4) was found by OHTG status. Both treatments generated similar treatment satisfaction scores, although there was greater weight gain and greater improvement in lipids and liver enzymes after pioglitazone than vildagliptin. CONCLUSIONS Comparative glucose-lowering by pioglitazone and vildagliptin is not different between Māori/Pacific people compared with other New Zealand ethnic groups. Presence of OHTG predicts greater glucose lowering by pioglitazone than vildagliptin. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION www.anzctr.org.au, identifier (ACTRN12618001907235).

Abstract
AIMS/INTRODUCTION Type 2 diabetes mellitus is caused by a relative imbalance between insulin secretion and sensitivity related to the body mass index (BMI). Seven categories of oral antidiabetic drugs (OADs) are available in Japan. It is important to assess the OAD utilization patterns based on patients' BMI levels. MATERIALS AND METHODS OAD prescribing patterns from 2002 to 2019 were analyzed using the data collected in the computerized diabetes care database provided by the Japan Diabetes Clinical Data Management Study Group; OAD utilization patterns in 25,751 OAD-treated type 2 diabetes mellitus patients registered in 2019 were analyzed after classifying them into five categories of BMI. RESULTS Comparing OAD usage between 2002 and 2019, sulfonylureas decreased from 44.5 to 23.2%, and biguanides (BGs) increased from 19.3 to 50.3%. Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors (DPP4is) increased to 56.9% in 2019. Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) increased to 23.6% in 2019. About 90% of type 2 diabetes mellitus patients had BMI < 30 kg/m2 . DPP4is were the most used OADs in 2019. When BMI exceeded 30 kg/m2 , use of BGs and sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors increased, and use of sulfonylureas and DPP4is decreased. Although DPP4is were the most used OADs for patients with BMI <30 kg/m2 , they were the third most prescribed OADs for patients with BMI >35 kg/m2 after BGs and sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors . CONCLUSIONS DPP4i usage was as high as that of BG in the analysis of Japanese type 2 diabetes mellitus patients with relatively low BMI. This was considered to be a treatment option appropriate for the pathophysiology in Japanese patients.

Abstract
AIMS This study aimed to assess the impact of different antidiabetic agents on individuals with diabetes and COVID-19. METHODS We searched PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, and Cochrane Library databases from inception to October 31, 2021 and included seven antidiabetic agents. The data were pooled via traditional pairwise meta-analysis and Bayesian network meta-analysis. RESULTS The pairwise meta-analysis included 35 studies. Metformin (odds ratio (OR), 0.74; P=0.001), dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors (DPP4i) (OR, 0.88; P=0.04), sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) (OR, 0.82; P=0.001), and glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP1RA) (OR, 0.91; P=0.02) treatment were associated with lower COVID-19 mortality in individuals with diabetes compared to respective non-users. However, insulin treatment resulted in higher mortality (OR, 1.8; P=0.001). Mortality did not significantly differ in sulfonylurea (OR, 0.97; P=0.56) and thiazolidinediones (TZDs) (OR, 1.00; P=0.96) users. Furthermore, due to limited data, we analyzed five antidiabetic agents (metformin, DPP4i, sulfonylurea, insulin, and SGLT2i) and found no association between them and severe disease risk (all P>0.05). The Bayesian network meta-analysis included 18 studies. GLP1RA and SGLT2i had the highest first and second rank probability (67.3% and 62.5%, respectively). Insulin showed the maximum probability of ranking seventh (97.0%). Metformin had the third and fourth highest rank probability of 44.8% and 38.9%, respectively. Meanwhile, DPP4i had the fifth-highest rank probability of 42.4%, followed by sulfonylurea at 45.1%. CONCLUSION Metformin, DPP4i, SGLT2i, and GLP1RA treatments were highly possible to reduced COVID-19 mortality risk in individuals with diabetes, while insulin might be related to increased mortality risk. Sulfonylurea and TZDs treatments were not associated with mortality. None of the antidiabetic agents studied were associated with the risk of severe disease. Additionally, GLP1RA probably had the most significant protective effect against death, followed by SGLT2i and metformin. SYSTEMATIC REVIEW REGISTRATION PROSPERO (CRD42021288200).

Abstract
PURPOSE Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors (DPP-4I), key regulators of the actions of incretin hormones, exert anti-hyperglycemic effects in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients. A major unanswered question concerns the potential ability of DPP-4I to improve intrahepatic lipid (IHL) content in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) patients. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of sitagliptin on IHL in NAFLD patients. METHODS A prospective, 24-week, single-center, open-label, comparative study enrolled 68 Chinese NAFLD patients with T2DM. Subjects were randomly divided into 4 groups: control group who did not take medicine (14 patients); sitagliptin group who received sitagliptin treatment (100mg per day) (17 patients); metformin group who received metformin (500mg three times per day) (17 patients); and sitagliptin plus metformin group who received sitagliptin (100mg per day) and metformin (500 mg three times per day) (20 patients). IHL, physical examination (waist circumstances, WC; body mass index, BMI), glucose-lipid metabolism (fasting plasma glucose, FPG; hemoglobin A1c, Hb1A1c; triglycerides; cholesterol; alanine aminotransferase, ALT; aspartate aminotransferase, AST) were measured at baseline and at 24 weeks. RESULTS 1) WC and BMI were decreased significantly in all groups except control group (all P<0.05). 2) There was no statistically significant difference in IHL among the sitagliptin, metformin, and sitagliptin plus metformin groups before and after treatment(all P>0.05). Only the metformin group showed a statistically significant difference in IHL before and after treatment(P<0.05). 3) Sitagliptin treatment led to a significant decrease in FBG and HbA1c when compared with the control group (all P<0.01). Additionally, HhA1c was significant decreased in the sitagliptin group when compared with the metformin group (P< 0.05). 4) HbA1c and FBG were decreased by 0.8% and 0.7 mmol/l respectively and the percentage of patients with HbA1c less than 7% was 65% with sitagliptin treatment. CONCLUSION Sitagliptin improves abnormalities in glucose metabolism, but not reduces the IHL in T2DM with NAFLD, indicating that sitagliptin might be a therapeutic option for treatment of NAFLD indirectly while not directly on IHL.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The prevalence of diabetes mellitus remains high in China, and more cardiovascular and cerebrovascular adverse events due to diabetes mellitus are likely to occur in the future. OBJECTIVE To analyze the gap between the current pharmacotherapy management and the guidelines for inpatients with type 2 diabetes mellitus from the perspective of pharmacists so as to provide a reference for optimal pharmacotherapy management methods and models for patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. METHODS The study was a cross-sectional observational study. The study was conducted by investigating and analyzing the use of glucose-lowering drugs, adjustment of blood pressure management strategy, lipid management, weight management, and application of antiplatelet drugs in type 2 diabetes inpatients. RESULTS A total of 1086 patients with type 2 diabetes were included. Metformin, glycosidase inhibitors, and basal insulin were the most used among type 2 diabetes inpatients. The use of SGLT-2, GLP-1 RAs, DPP-4, and metformin all showed significant increase. SGLT-2 inhibitors (SGLT-2i) showed the fastest increase from 2020 to 2021 (14.5% vs. 39.6%); However, the application rate of SGLT-2i was low among patients with combined ASCVD, renal insufficiency, and diabetic nephropathy (46.4%, 40.9%, and 45.8% respectively). For patients with substandard blood pressure at admission, the average rate of intervention by endocrinologists for adjusting the antihypertensive regimen during hospitalization was 55.6%, and the application rate of ACEI/ARB drugs reached 64.4%. The application rate of statins among patients with type 2 diabetes was still relatively high, at 78.8%. However, the overall intervention rate for patients with suboptimal LDL-c was only 24.1%. The application rate of antiplatelet agents for patients with ASCVD was 77.6%, which was higher than that for patients without ASCVD. CONCLUSION There is still a gap between the practice of medication treatment management of Chinese inpatients with type 2 diabetes and the guidelines, especially in the application of GLP-1RAs and SGLT-2i in patients with concomitant ASCVD, diabetic nephropathy, and renal insufficiency. Meanwhile, physicians and pharmacists should pay more attention on achieving blood pressure and LDL-c standards in type 2 diabetic patients and provide timely interventions.

Abstract
AIM To determine the effect of the dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor linagliptin on postprandial glomerular hyperfiltration compared with the sulphonylurea glimepiride in adults with type 2 diabetes (T2D). MATERIALS AND METHODS In this predefined substudy within a randomized, double-blind, parallel-group, intervention trial, overweight people with T2D without renal impairment were treated with once-daily linagliptin 5 mg (N = 10) or glimepiride 1 mg (N = 13) as an add-on to metformin for 8 weeks. After a standardized liquid protein-rich meal, the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and effective renal plasma flow were determined by inulin and para-aminohippuric acid clearance, respectively, based on timed urine sampling. Intrarenal haemodynamics were estimated using the Gomez equations. Glucoregulatory/vasoactive hormones, urinary pH and fractional excretions (FE) of sodium, potassium and urea were measured. RESULTS Compared with glimepiride, linagliptin increased the postprandial filtration fraction (FF; mean difference 2.1%-point; P = .016) and estimated glomerular hydraulic pressure (mean difference 3.0 mmHg; P = .050), and tended to increase GFR (P = .08) and estimated efferent renal arteriolar resistance (RE ; P = .08) from baseline to week 8. No differences in FE were noted. Glimepiride reduced HbA1c more than linagliptin (mean difference -0.40%; P = .004), without between-group differences in time-averaged postprandial glucose levels. In the linagliptin group, change in FF correlated with change in mean arterial pressure (R = 0.807; P = .009) and time-averaged mean glucagon (R = 0.782; P = .008), but not with changes in glucose, insulin, intact glucagon-like peptide-1, renin or FENa . Change in glucagon was associated with change in RE (R = 0.830; P = .003). CONCLUSIONS In contrast to our hypothesis, compared with glimepiride, linagliptin does not reduce postprandial hyperfiltration, yet appears to increase FF after meal ingestion by increasing blood pressure or RE .

Abstract
AIMS Hyperglucagonemia occurs in the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). In this meta-analysis, we summarized the effects of DPP4 inhibitors on glucagon levels in patients with T2DM. MATERIALS AND METHODS Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing the influence of DPP4 inhibitors on circulating glucagon levels with placebo or other oral antidiabetic drugs (OADs) in patients with T2DM were identified by searches of Medline (PubMed), Embase (Ovid), and CENTER (Cochrane Library). Only studies reporting changes in glucagon level presented as total area under the curve (AUCglucagon) using a meal or oral glucose tolerance test were included. Results were combined using a random-effects model that incorporated potential heterogeneity among the included studies. RESULTS A total of 36 RCTs with moderate to high quality were included. Overall, the numbers of T2DM patients included for the meta-analyses comparing DPP4 inhibitors with placebo and other OADs were 4266 and 1652, respectively. Compared to placebo, DPP4 inhibitors significantly reduced circulating glucagon levels (standard mean difference [SMD]: -0.32, 95% CI: -0.40 to -0.24, P<0.001; I2 = 28%). Analysis of subgroups revealed that study characteristics had no significant effect on results, such as study design (parallel group or crossover), number of patients, mean patient age, proportion of men, baseline HbA1c, duration of diabetes, background therapy, treatment duration, or methods for glucagon measurement (all P for subgroup differences >0.05). Moreover, DPP4 inhibitors significantly reduced glucagon levels compared to other OADs (SMD: -0.35, 95% CI: -0.53 to -0.16, P<0.001; I2 = 66%), and the reduction in glucagon was greater in comparison with insulin secretagogues than in comparison with non-insulin secretagogues (P for subgroup difference =0.03). SYSTEMATIC REVIEW REGISTRATION https://inplasy.com/, identifier INPLASY202280104. CONCLUSIONS DPP4 inhibitors are effective at reducing the circulating postprandial glucagon level in T2DM patients.
