Effects of Empagliflozin-Metformin, Sitagliptin-Metformin, and Metformin on Serum Omentin 1 and Resistin in Treatment Naive Obese Patients With Type 2 Diabetes: A Clinical Prospective Study
Abstract
This study compared the impacts of empagliflozin-metformin, sitagliptin-metformin, and metformin monotherapy in treatment-naive overweight or obese adults with newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes mellitus in Erbil, Iraq. The study monitored participants for 12 weeks. It determined changes in serum omentin-1, resistin, glycemic markers, and anthropometric measures.
Conditions: Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2.
Primary outcome: Change in serum omentin-1 concentrations from baseline to 12 weeks; Change in serum resistin concentrations from baseline to 12 weeks.
Enrollment: 186 participants.
How strong is the evidence?
Evidence Hub reads this as a clinical trial, done in people. Its evidence level is 3 of 5 (Moderate · trial / cohort / secondary analysis). Trials without a large randomized design, cohorts and secondary analyses give moderate evidence. Reported size: 186 participants or records.
