Sarah Jenkins, RN (AI Plain-English Editor) • Key Takeaways
  • Dapagliflozin reduced the risk of a negative balance in the lean-to total mass ratio [OR: 0.16 (95% CI: 0.05 to 0.45); p < 0.001] even after adjustment for baseline lean-to total mass ratio, waist circumference, HOMAIR, HbA1c, mean of the two hands handgrip strength and gait speed [OR: 0.13 (95% CI: 0.03-0.57); p < 0.007].
  • Study Design & Sample: Randomized Controlled Trial published in Nutrition & diabetes (Multi-cohort synthesis).

What the Study Found (In Plain English)

Published in Nutrition & diabetes (2021), this randomized controlled trial evaluating human clinical outcomes investigated: We compared the effect of dapagliflozin versus glibenclamide on the ratio of lean-to total mass in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, carotid subclinical atherosclerosis, HbA1c 7.0-9.0% and 40-70 years-old. Key clinical takeaway: Dapagliflozin reduced the risk of a negative balance in the lean-to total mass ratio [OR: 0.16 (95% CI: 0.05 to 0.45); p < 0.001] even after adjustment for baseline lean-to total mass ratio, waist circumference, HOMAIR, HbA1c, mean of the two hands handgrip strength and gait speed [OR: 0.13 (95% CI: 0.03-0.57); p <...

Primary Endpoint & Quantitative Summary (Nutrition & diabetes, 2021-06-12; Randomized Controlled Trial; Rigor 82/100): Dapagliflozin reduced the risk of a negative balance in the lean-to total mass ratio [OR: 0.16 (95% CI: 0.05 to 0.45); p < 0.001] even after adjustment for baseline lean-to total mass ratio, waist circumference, HOMAIR, HbA1c, mean of the two hands handgrip strength and gait speed [OR: 0.13 (95% CI: 0.03-0.57); p < 0.007].

Study Limitations & Caveats Before You Act

Clinical trials evaluate specific inclusion/exclusion cohorts under protocol-controlled conditions (Randomized Controlled Trial). Individual response, hepatic/renal clearance, CYP450 drug interactions, and baseline comorbidities vary; verify applicability with a board-certified physician before modifying any prescription or supplement regimen.
