Which type of aerobic training provides greater benefits to patients with type 2 diabetes?
This study examined the impact of three types of aerobic training exercises on measurements of heart and metabolic function in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D). The data showed that greater improvements occurred in heart and breathing function measurements with low-volume high-intensity training (HITT) compared to low-volume moderate to vigorous intensity continuous training (MICT) in these patients.

Can new glucose-lowering medications influence stroke risk in patients with type 2 diabetes?
This review assessed the effects of new glucose-lowering drugs on stroke risk in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D). The study showed that glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor (GLP-1) agonists are potentially beneficial for stroke risk in patients with T2D.

Can cardiovascular risk factors be reduced by consumption of soymilk and probiotics in patients with type 2 diabetes?
This study examined the effects of consuming soymilk and probiotics on risk factors related to heart and blood vessel diseases in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D). The study showed that the consumption of soymilk with probiotics might improve cardiovascular (CV) risk factors in these patients.

Is dorzagliatin an effective add-on treatment to metformin in patients with type 2 diabetes?
This study assessed the effectiveness and safety of adding dorzagliatin (HMS552) to metformin therapy in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) with inadequately controlled blood glucose (sugar) while using metformin (Glucophage) alone. The data showed effective blood glucose control, good tolerance, and safety in patients treated with dorzagliatin and metformin.

How safe and effective is dorzagliatin treatment in patients with type 2 diabetes?
This study evaluated the effectiveness and long-term safety of dorzagliatin in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) without previous antidiabetic treatment. The authors concluded that dorzagliatin blood glucose (sugar) levels with no serious side effects in these patients.

Is there evidence to support the effectiveness and safety of nutrient supplementation for control of blood glucose and management of insulin resistance in type 2 diabetes?
This review analyzed the effectiveness and safety of nutrient supplements for the control of blood glucose and insulin resistance in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D). The authors concluded that there is currently a lack of sufficient clinical evidence to support the use of nutrient supplements for blood glucose control and improved insulin resistance in these patients.

Do some anti-diabetic medications affect the risk of fractures in patients with type 2 diabetes?
This analysis investigated the relationship between anti-diabetic medications and the risk of fractures in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D). The data showed that glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP1-RAs) and sulfonylurea (SU) provided better protection against fractures compared to thiazolidinedione (TZD) or dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors (DPP-4is) while sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT-2i) increased the risk of fractures compared to GLP1-RAs.

How can counselling affect pancreatic beta-cell function in patients with type 2 diabetes?
This study analyzed the long-term effect of behavioral counseling on increasing daily physical activity (PA) and reducing sedentary (SED) time on changes in beta-cell (β-cell) function and glucose control in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D). The authors concluded that increasing moderate-to-vigorous-intensity physical activity (MVPA) and reducing SED time can effectively preserve the β-cell function of the pancreas and improve glucose control in these patients.

How does physical activity affect the occurrence of major diabetes-related complications?
This study evaluated evidence on the association between physical activity and major diabetes-related complications in patients with diabetes. The authors concluded that physical activity was associated with a reduction in the occurrence of major diabetes-related complications, even if performed at levels lower than recommended.

How safe and effective is orally delivered insulin for patients with early-stage type 2 diabetes?
This study compared the safety and effectiveness of different doses of an oral insulin capsule formulation (Capsulin™) to patients with early-stage type 2 diabetes (T2D). The data showed that twice-daily, orally administered Capsulin at a dose of 150 international units (IU) was safe and resulted in a significant lowering of glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c; blood glucose control over the past 2-3 months), fasting plasma glucose (FPG) and triglycerides (TG; blood fats) levels.
