Article Synopsis
- Researchers wanted to see how well people with type 2 diabetes stick to their medicine, focusing on oral semaglutide and a different type called DPP-4 inhibitors.
- They looked at data from a huge database and checked how many days people kept taking their meds over a year.
- The study found that people used both types of medicine about the same amount, but using oral semaglutide might mean you need fewer other medications to help with diabetes.
Strong multiperiod forerunning light jet within a double-prism gap: a counterintuitive manifestation of causality.

We report on the effect of a strong and protracted advanced response in pulse transmission and reflection in a double-prism scheme. In distinction to the well-known activity on superluminal-like tunneling of an electromagnetic pulse through a gap of a double prism, we consider an optical pulse refracting to a gap and sliding therein. The formation of a multiperiod light jet running within the gap well before the incident pulse is shown with account of normal material dispersion and excitation of leaky modes in the gap.

- The study investigates the relationship between metformin use and the incidence of gout in adults with pre-diabetes, aiming to clarify how metformin affects gout risk.
- Researchers conducted a cohort study with 25,064 pre-diabetic individuals, comparing 1,154 metformin users to 13,877 non-users, and found that metformin users had a lower incidence rate of gout.
- The findings suggest that starting metformin may help reduce the risk of developing gout in people with pre-diabetes, highlighting its potential benefits beyond blood sugar management.
Background: Recent studies suggest that aortic valve replacement (AVR) remains underutilized.
Aims: Investigate the potential role of non-referral to heart valve specialists (HVS) on AVR utilization.
Methods: Patients with severe aortic stenosis (AS) between 2015 and 2018, who met class I indication for intervention, were identified.
