Unlabelled: BIBYII STUDY OBJECTIVE: To obtain experience with longterm (24 months) exenatide treatment (Byetta) in patients with diabetes mellitus type 2 from a common clinical practice of diabetology departments in the Czech Republic. TYPE OF OBSERVATION: Observational study conducted by a randomly selected group of outpatient medical practitioners from 28 diabetology departments in the Czech Republic. OBSERVED AND ASSESSED POPULATION: From the original population of 465 patients, who underwent a minimum of three months Byetta treatment, 169 patients (36.6%) remained during the second prolonged observation after 18 months, and 76 patients completed 24 months of uninterrupted Byetta treatment. The following basic information about the patients was collected: year of birth, sex, age when diabetes mellitus (DM) manifested, height, maximum weight before diabetes and when DM manifested. The study recorded the following values in three- month intervals: weight, waistline, glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c), and DM treatment. The population of the prolonged observation comprised 50.3% women and 49.7 % men, and the average age at the time of DM2 manifestation was 48.0 (20- 73 years).
Results: At the beginning of Byetta treatment, the average maximum BMI in the subpopulation observed for 24 months was 38.44; after 3, 6, 9, 12 and 24 months the following levels were measured, respectively: 36.79, 36.22, 35.91, 35.57 and 35.58. The original HbA1c level of 7.44% at the beginning of Byetta treatment decreased after 3, 6, 9, 12 and 24 months to 6.33, 5.98, 5.83, 5.86 and 5.93%.
Conclusion: Adding Byetta to the currently applied treatment of obese patients with diabetes mellitus type 2 over a period of 24 months has led to an improvement in HbA1c level by 1.51%, and BMI level was reduced by 2.37 after two years of Byetta treatment.

Introduction: The aim of this study is to use observational methods to evaluate reliability of evidence generated by a study of the effect of glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RA) on chronic lower respiratory disease (CLRD) outcomes among Type-2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients.
Research Design And Methods: We independently reproduced a study comparing effects of GLP-1RA versus dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors (DPP4-i) on CLRD outcomes among patients with T2DM and prior CLRD. We reproduced inputs and outputs using the original study data (national administrative claims) and evaluated the robustness of results in comparison to alternate design/analysis decisions.
Managing cardiovascular events, hyperglycemia, and obesity in type 2 diabetes through microRNA regulation linked to glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists.

Background And Aims: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is usually complicated by cardiovascular diseases, hyperglycemia, and obesity, which worsen the outcome for the patient. Since recent evidence underlines the epigenetic role of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) in the management of these comorbidities, this study compared the effects of these agents, namely liraglutide, semaglutide, dulaglutide, and exenatide, on miRNA regulation in the management of T2DM.
Results: GLP-1RAs modify the expression of miRNAs involved in endothelial function, sugar metabolism, and adipogenesis, including but not limited to miR-27b, miR-130a, and miR-210.

Introduction: Understanding predictors of smoking cessation medication efficacy facilitates the ability to enhance treatment effectiveness. In our pilot trial, exenatide, a glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist, adjunct to nicotine patch improved smoking abstinence compared to nicotine patch alone. This secondary analysis explores potential baseline characteristics associated with differential treatment response to exenatide.

Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor (GLP-1R) agonists, such as exenatide (Byetta, Bydureon), liraglutide (Victoza, Saxenda), albiglutide (Tanzeum), dulaglutide (Trulicity), lixisenatide (Lyxumia, Adlyxin), semaglutide (Ozempic, Rybelsus, Wegovy), and tirzepatide (Mounjaro, Zepbound), are widely used for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and obesity. While these agents are well known for their metabolic benefits, there is growing interest in their potential effects on cancer biology. However, the role of GLP-1R agonists in cancer remains complex and not fully understood, particularly across different tumor types.
