Efficacy and Safety of Sitagliptin Compared with Dapagliflozin in People???65 Years Old with Type 2 Diabetes and Mild Renal Insufficiency.

ABSTRACT: INTRODUCTION:Older patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) are at increased risk of diabetic nephropathy and mild renal insufficiency. This analysis compared the anti-hyperglycemic efficacy and safety of sitagliptin with dapagliflozin in patients???65 years of age with T2D and mild renal insufficiency. METHODS:This was a post hoc analysis of data from 410 patients???65 years old who participated in a 24-week, randomized, double-blind clinical trial (CompoSIT-R [comparison of sitagliptin with dapagliflozin in mild renal impairment]; NCT02532855) in T2D patients with mild renal insufficiency and on metformin?±?a sulfonylurea; the primary efficacy end point was change in HbA1c at week 24. RESULTS:Treatment groups were well balanced at baseline (mean HbA1c?=?7.7/7.7% and eGFR?=?79/76 ml/min/1.73 m2 for sitagliptin/dapagliflozin). At week 24, LS mean (95% CI) change in HbA1c and percentage of patients with HbA1c?

Project description:Nowadays, various clinical scoring systems are used in the medical care of the elderly to assess the quality of mobility. However, people often tend to under- or overestimate themselves in many aspects. Since this can have serious consequences in their treatment and care, the aim of this study was to identify differences in the self and external assessment of mobility of persons over 65 years of age. 222 participants over 65 years of age and one external, closely-related relative or professional caregiver were interviewed by a unique study assistant using a standardized questionnaire. Participants were divided into people living in nursing homes and independent people living at home, where either the caregivers or the relatives provided the external assessment of mobility, respectively. The questionnaire included demographics, cognitive abilities (Mini Mental Status Test); fall risk (Hendrich 2 Fall Risk Model); as well as the Parker Mobility Score, Barthel Index, and EQ-5D-5L to measure mobility, activities of daily life and quality of life. In each case, the participant and the external person were asked for their assessment to the participants' mobility situation. Statistical significance of the difference between self and external assessment was calculated with a Wilcoxon rank-sum test and assumed with a p-value of ≤ 0.05. Self-assessment indicated a significantly higher value, when compared to an external assessment for the Parker Mobility Score for females in nursing homes (p ≤ 0.01), as well as for the Barthel Index for females (p ≤ 0.01) and males (p ≤ 0.01) in nursing homes. The EQ-5D-5L received a significantly higher self-assessment value for females (p ≤ 0.01) and males (p ≤ 0.01) living at home and females (p ≤ 0.01) and males (p ≤ 0.05) in nursing homes. Persons over 65 years of age tend to overestimate their level of mobility, quality of life and activities of daily life. Especially for people living in nursing homes, these scoring systems should be treated with caution due to the differences between the verbal statements. It is important to properly assess the mobility situation of elderly patients to ensure correct medical treatment and prevention of falls.
