Continuous glucose monitoring-based metrics and the duration of hypoglycaemia events with once-weekly insulin icodec versus once-daily insulin glargine U100 in insulin-naive type 2 diabetes: an exploratory analysis of ONWARDS 1.

Background: Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) can provide a comprehensive assessment of glycaemic control. This exploratory analysis of the ONWARDS 1 trial assessed CGM-based metrics and CGM-derived hypoglycaemia duration in insulin-naive individuals with type 2 diabetes treated with subcutaneous once-weekly insulin icodec (icodec) versus once-daily insulin glargine U100 (glargine U100).

Methods: ONWARDS 1 was a 78-week (52-week main treatment phase and a 26-week treatment extension phase plus a 5-week follow-up), randomised, open-label, treat-to-target, phase 3a trial done at 143 sites (outpatient clinics and hospital departments) across 12 countries.

Practical Aspects of Using Large Language Models to Screen Abstracts for Cardiovascular Drug Development: Cross-Sectional Study.

Cardiovascular drug development requires synthesizing relevant literature about indications, mechanisms, biomarkers, and outcomes. This short study investigates the performance, cost, and prompt engineering trade-offs of 3 large language models accelerating the literature screening process for cardiovascular drug development applications.

Informatics and Artificial Intelligence-Guided Assessment of the Regulatory and Translational Research Landscape of First-in-Class Oncology Drugs in the United States, 2018-2022.

Purpose: Cancer drug development remains a critical but challenging process that affects millions of patients and their families. Using biomedical informatics and artificial intelligence (AI) approaches, we assessed the regulatory and translational research landscape defining successful first-in-class drugs for patients with cancer.

Methods: This is a retrospective observational study of all novel first-in-class drugs approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) from 2018 to 2022, stratified by cancer versus noncancer drugs.

Frequency of self-reported persistent post-treatment genital hypoesthesia among past antidepressant users: a cross-sectional survey of sexual and gender minority youth in Canada and the US.

Purpose: Persistent post-treatment genital hypoesthesia (PPTGH) is a primary symptom of post-SSRI sexual dysfunction (PSSD), an iatrogenic syndrome characterized by enduring sexual dysfunction following the discontinuation of some antidepressants. We aimed to estimate the frequency of PPTGH among past users of psychiatric treatments, particularly antidepressants.

Methods: We used a subsample of UnACoRN, a US/Canada survey of sexual and gender minority youth aged 15 to 29.

Does poor oral health impact on young children's development? A rapid review.

Background The extent to which poor oral health in young children impacts developmental milestones is unclear.Aim To review the evidence of association between poor oral health and development of young children (0-5 years).Method A rapid review was conducted.
