Clinical efficacy of semaglutide in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus combined with non-alco-holic fatty liver disease and its effect on oxidative stress and inflammatory factors
Objective To explore the efficacy of semaglutide in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM)com-bined with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD)and its effect on oxidative stress and inflammatory factors.Methods Totally 80 patients with T2DM accompanied by NAFLD admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinxiang Medical University from July 2021 to December 2022 were selected and randomly assigned to the observation group and the control group,with 40 patients in each group.Patients in the control group were treated with pioglitazone metformin and dapagliflozin,while patients in the observation group were treated with pioglitazone metformin,dapagliflozin,and semaglutide.The levels of glycated hemoglobin(HbA1c),fasting blood glucose(FBG),2-hour postprandial blood glucose(2hPG),body mass,body mass index(BMI),waist circumference,alanine aminotransferase(ALT),aspartate aminotransferase(AST),gamma-glutamyl transferase(GGT),controlled attenuation parameter(CAP),liver stiffness measurement(LSM),malondialdehyde(MDA),glutathione peroxidase(GSH-PX),lipid peroxide(LPO),tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α),interleukin-6(IL-6),and interleukin-10(IL-10)before and after the treatment were compared.Results After 24 weeks of treatment,the overall response rate(ORR)in the observation group and control group was 92.5％(37/40)and 72.5％(29/40),respectively;and the ORR in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group(x2=5.541,P＜0.05).Before treatment,there was no statistically significant difference in the body mass,BMI,waist circumference,HbA1c,FBG,2hPG,ALT,AST,GGT,CAP,LSM,MDA,GSH-PX,LPO,TNF-α,IL-6,and IL-10 of patients between the 2 groups(P＞0.05);after 24 weeks of treatment,the body mass,BMI,waist circumference,HbA1c,FBG,2hPG,ALT,AST,GGT,CAP,LSM,MDA,LPO,TNF-α,IL-6,and IL-10 were significantly lower than before treatment,while GSH-PX was significantly higher than before treatment(P＜0.05);after 24 weeks of treatment,the body mass,BMI,waist circumference,HbA1c,FBG,2hPG,ALT,AST,GGT,CAP,LSM,MDA,LPO,TNF-α,IL-6,and IL-10 of patients in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group,and GSH-PX was significantly higher than that in the control group(P＜0.05).The incidence of adverse reactions in the observation group and the control group during the treatment period was 17.5％(7/40)and 12.5％(5/40),respectively;and the difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups was not statistically significant(P＞0.05).Conclusion Semaglutide significantly downregulates the levels of FBG,2hPG and HbA1c in patients with T2DM combined with NAFLD and reduces the body mass,waist circumference,liver enzyme level,hepatic fat content,hepatic fibrosis,oxidative stress,and inflammatory indicators.
