Intestinal Fructose Metabolism Triggers Glucagon-Like Peptide-1-β-Cell Axis to Prevent Post-Fructose Hyperglycemia

Researchers from Fujita Health University have made a significant discovery in the field of nutritional and metabolic diseases. According to a news report, the team found that fructose ingestion increases circulating glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and insulin, which helps to counteract fructose-induced hyperglycemia. The study, published in The Journal of Physiology,

GLP-1 Receptor Polymorphism Alters Efficacy of Liraglutide Treatment in Individuals with Obesity

Researchers at Vanderbilt University Medical Center have identified a genetic variant in the glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor (GLP-1R) that influences the effectiveness of liraglutide, a medication used to treat obesity and pre-diabetes. The study, published in the Journal of Endocrinology, found that individuals with the variant allele (rs6923761) experienced greater weight

New Research on Liver Diseases and Conditions Reveals Promise of Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 Receptor Agonists

Investigators at Rutgers University - The State University of New Jersey have conducted new research on liver diseases and conditions, highlighting the potential of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP1-RAs) in managing metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) and its progressive form, metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH). The study, published in Clinics

Nurse-Led Interventions Improve Self-Management Behaviours and Self-Efficacy in Individuals with Type 2 Diabetes

A systematic review and meta-analysis conducted by researchers from Beihua University found that nurse-led interventions significantly improved self-management behaviours and self-efficacy in individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus. The study, published in the International Journal of Nursing Practice, aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of nurse-led self-management interventions on self-management behaviours
