Abstract

This study evaluated the efficacy of rosiglitazone in non-obese and obese Korean type 2 diabetic patients of long duration. A total of 125 patients (M:F=44:81, mean age: 58.4+/-9.1 years, BMI: 24.2+/-2.7 kg/m2, duration of diabetes: 11.0+/-6.4 years) were randomly allocated to 12 weeks of rosiglitazone treatment (4 mg per day) or a control group. Responders were defined as patients who experienced fasting plasma glucose (FPG) reduction of >20% or HbA1c reduction of >1 (%). Rosiglitazone significantly improved glycemic control by reducing FPG and HbA1c (-3.4 mmol/l and -1.1%, P<0.001, respectively). It also significantly increased HOMA(beta-cell function) (+9.7, P<0.01) and QUICKI (+0.029, P<0.001), and decreased HOMA(IR) (-1.73, P<0.001). Females and those with higher waist-hip ratio made up a greater portion of rosiglitazone-responders. Responders (45 patients, 75%) also showed significantly higher FPG, HbA1c, systolic blood pressures, fasting insulin levels and HOMA(IR), and lower QUICKI than nonresponders. Among these parameters of responders, waist-hip ratio of non-obese subgroup, initial glycemic control of obese subgroup, and systolic blood pressure of both subgroups lost their significance after subdivision analysis. However, the baseline HOMA(IR) and QUICKI were significantly correlated with the response rate to rosiglitazone. Moreover, in multiple logistic regression analysis, HOMA(IR) and QUICKI retained their significance as the independent predictors. Even in Korean type 2 diabetic patients of long duration but with relatively preserved beta-cell function, rosiglitazone improved glycemic control, insulin sensitivity, and beta-cell function. In this ethnic group, female gender, central obesity, and especially severe insulin resistance were identified as predictive clinical parameters of rosiglitazone-responders.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Responders to rosiglitazone were more likely to be females than males.

    “For example, males responded better to sulfonylurea treatment compared with women [80] and responders to rosiglitazone were more likely to be females than males [81].”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
