Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to evaluate how effective bexagliflozin is in lowering glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) and monitoring side effects in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2DM).
- Six randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trials involving a total of 3,111 patients were analyzed, revealing that bexagliflozin significantly reduced HbA1c, fasting plasma glucose, blood pressure, and body weight compared to placebo.
- The findings concluded that bexagliflozin improves clinical outcomes in T2DM patients without increasing the risk of side effects, confirming its efficacy as a treatment option.
Objective: To describe the impact of the introduction of the viral tetra vaccine in the National Immunization Program in 2013 for 15-month-old children in mortality rates and hospitalization associated with varicella in Brazil.
Methods: Mortality rates and hospitalizations rates associated with varicella were evaluated between 2010 and 2016 and described according to Brazilian macro regions and age. The population was stratified into age groups: < 1year, 1-4 years, and 5-14 years.
Objective: To analyze factors associated with survival in the first year of life.
Methods: A historical cohort study was carried out using data from live birth and mortality information systems, including 90,153 live birth records and 1,053 records of death before age one year in hospitals in the cities of Florianópolis and São José, Southern Brazil, between 1999 and 2006. Survival curves were estimated (Kaplan-Meier) for birthweight categories, date of birth (four-year periods), and type of maternity.
