However, estimates vary The disclosure of interim data from ongoing clinical trials is usually regarding the prevalence of depression among people with diabetes melli- discouraged, as it can alter participant behavior and threaten trial integ- tus (DM) around this time period. We used national data to estimate preva- rity. Current U.S. regulatory guidance requires long-term cardiovascular lence of depressive symptoms among persons with normal glycemic sta- outcomes trials (CVOTs) for new T2DM drugs, but allows interim data tus, pre-DM, and DM during 2005-2008 and 2009-2012. We analyzed data to be disclosed to support approval. The purpose of this study was to from 21,618 adults aged ≥18 years from the 2005-2012 National Health and examine how such disclosure could influence enrollment dynamics in Nutrition Examination Surveys. Using the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 a CVOT.

Next, they were randomized to receive scenarios in ness of DM or pre-DM. In 2009-2012, the crude prevalence of depression which evidence of either an increase or decrease in CVD incidence was among adults was 1.6 times higher for those with DM (22.9% [20.1-25.9]) disclosed during the trial.

ARGENTO, KATHERINE NAKAMURA, Columbia, MD, San Diego, CA Limited information is available on the chronic use of sodium-glucose transporter 2 inhibitors in type 1 diabetes (T1D). We report on the glycemic, weight and systolic blood pressure (SBP) effect of canaglifl ozin 100 mg daily in T1D in a group of experienced Dexcom CGM (DCGM) users.

Digital Comprehensive Summaries of Uppsala Dissertations from the Faculty of Science and Technology 1465. 59 pp. Uppsala: Acta Universitatis Upsaliensis. ISBN 978-91-554-9783-5. This thesis concerned about the Ru-catalyzed C-H functionalizations on the synthesis of 2- arylindole unit, silylation of heteroarenes and preparation of aryne precursor. In the first project, we developed the Ru-catalyzed C2-H arylation of N-(2-pyrimidyl) indoles and pyrroles with nucleophilic arylboronic acids under oxidative conditions. Wide variety of arylboronic acids afforded the desired product in excellent yield regardless of the substituents or functional group electronic nature. Electron-rich heteroarenes are well suited for this method than electron-poor heteroarenes. Halides such as bromide and iodide also survived, further derivatisation of the halide is shown by Heck alkenylation. In order to find catalytic on-cycle intermediate extensive mechanistic experiments have been carried out by preparing presumed ruthenacyclic complexes and C-H/D exchange reactions.

Insulin has remained indispensable in dispensable in management of diabetes mellitus since its discovery in 1921. Comparatively, a large percentage of world population is affected by diabetes mellitus, out of which approximately 5-10% with type 1 diabetes while the remaining 90% with type 2. The present mode of insulin administration is by the subcutaneous route through which insulin introduced into the body in a non-physiological manner having many challenges. Hence novel approaches for insulin delivery are being explored. Challenges that have adverse effect on oral route of insulin administration mainly includes rapid enzymatic degradation in the stomach, inactivation and digestion by proteolytic enzymes in the intestinal lumen and poor permeability across intestinal epithelium because of its high molecular weight and its lipophilicity. Approaches such as liposomes, micro emulsions, nano cubicle, insulin chewing gum and so forth have been prepared to ensure the oral delivery of insulin.

    Risk of Any Hypoglycemia with New Antihyperglycemic Agents in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis by Sanaz Kamalinia A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Master of Science Institute of Medical Sciences University of Toronto © Copyright by Sanaz Kamalinia (2019) Risk of Any Hypoglycemia with New Antihyperglycemic Agents in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes: A Systematic Review and Meta- Analysis Sanaz Kamalinia Master of Science Institute of Medical Sciences University of Toronto 2019 Abstract Background : Evaluation of hypoglycemia risk relative to placebo with new antihyperglycemic agents (AHA) including the dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors (DPP4i), glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP1RA) and sodium-glucose co-transporter- 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) remains inconclusive. Objective: This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to assess risk of any and severe hypoglycemia with new AHA relative to placebo by excluding studies with background sulfonylureas and insulin. Methods: Randomized, placebo-controlled studies, 12 weeks or greater in duration were considered for inclusion. Studies allowing background use of any other AHA, apart from metformin, were excluded. This study is registered with PROSPERO (CRD42018095458). Results: 141 studies included in the meta-analysis demonstrate that relative to placebo, risk of any and severe hypoglycemia did not significantly differ for any new AHA. ii Acknowledgments First and foremost, I wish to express my sincere gratitude to my program advisor committee members. To my supervisor Dr Tobe, thank you for accepting me as your student and presenting me with this challenge. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Especially given your positive words of encouragement and insightful guidance for every step of this journey.

    CMAJ OPEN Research Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors and the risk of heart failure: a systematic review and meta-analysis Subodh Verma MD PhD, Ronald M. Goldenberg MD, Deepak L. Bhatt MD MPH, Michael E. Farkouh MD MSc, Adrian Quan MPhil, Hwee Teoh PhD, Kim A. Connelly MBBS PhD, Lawrence A. Leiter MD, Jan O. Friedrich MD DPhil Abstract Background: Given recent discrepant results from randomized controlled trials (RCTs), we examined the totality of RCT evidence assessing the association between dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors and heart failure. Methods: MEDLINE, Embase and ClinicalTrials.gov were searched without language restrictions to August 2016 for RCTs compar- ing DPP-4 inhibitors to placebo or no therapy for a period of 24 weeks or more. We included all heart failure outcomes when listed either as a serious adverse event or adverse event. Pooled analyses used random-effects. Results: We identified 100 RCTs (n = 79 867) — 3 large cardiovascular-safety RCTs (SAVOR-TIMI 53[saxagliptin]/n = 16 492, EXAMINE[alogliptin]/n = 5380, and TECOS[sitagliptin]/n = 14 735), and 97 smaller RCTs with a primary outcome that was usually change in glycated hemoglobin. Virtually all RCTs were high-quality, multicentre, placebo-controlled trials. A total of 96% (1192/1244) of heart failure events were prespecified, blindly adjudicated and required hospital admission. Pooled results suggested a 13% increase in heart failure (relative risk [RR] 1.13, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.01–1.26, I2 = 0%; 32 RCTs, n = 54 640, 1244 events). When including only the 3 large RCTs, the increase was similar, but not significant (RR 1.14, 95% CI 0.97–1.32; 3 RCTs, n = 36 543, 1169 adjudicated events; number needed to harm 246) owing to heterogeneity (I2 = 42%), which lead to wider CIs, because SAVOR- TIMI 53 showed increased heart failure (RR 1.26, 95% CI 1.06–1.49) and TECOS showed no effect (RR 1.00, 95% CI 0.83–1.19).

VOLUME 47, NUMBER 1, WINTER 2006 Innovation Through Intimidation: An Empirical Account of Defamation Litigation in China Benjamin L. Liebman* INTRODUCTION Consider two recent defamation cases in Chinese courts. In 2004, Zhang Xide, a former county-level Communist Party boss, sued the authors of a best selling book, An Investigation into China's Peasants. The book exposed official malfeasance on Zhang's watch and the resultant peasant hardships. Zhang demanded an apology from the book's authors and publisher, excision of the offending chapter, 200,000 yuan (approximately U.S.$25,000)' for emotional damages, and a share of profits from sales of the book. Zhang sued 2 in a local court on which, not coincidentally, his son sat as a judge. * Associate Professor of Law and Director, Center for Chinese Legal Studies, Columbia Law School.
