[Indicators of diabetes mellitus after liraglutide, sitagliptin/metformin, linagliptin, and sitagliptin].
Rev Med Inst Mex Seguro Soc · 2023
Last updated 2026-05-28A study compared diabetes control indicators in 352 patients before and after switching to new medications (liraglutide, sitagliptin/metformin, linagliptin, or sitagliptin). Overall diabetes control slightly decreased (38.4% to 35.8%) with no significant change in blood sugar levels, weight, or blood pressure. However, clinic-wide control rates for blood sugar and blood pressure improved in late 2020 compared to the same months in 2021.

Abstract
BACKGROUND: The control of diabetes mellitus is multifactorial, the different therapeutic options make it necessary to compare the effectiveness with previous therapeutic schemes.
OBJECTIVE: Analize the indicators of control of diabetes mellitus after incorporating liraglutide, sitagliptin/metformin, linagliptin, and sitagliptin.
METHODS: Observational, analytical, longitudinal study. Glucose, glycosylated hemoglobin, and blood pressure were compared after the inclusion of new cues in patients with diabetes mellitus; in addition to the control indicators reported in the unit in october, november, and december 2000, with those of 2021 in the same months. A descriptive analysis was performed, T for related samples and McNemar, a value of < .05 was considered significant, a confidence level of 95%, with the IBM-SPSS 24 software.
RESULTS: 352 files were analyzed, 59% women, aged 26 to 88 years, and the percentage of control decreased after the change of scheme (38.4% vs 35.8%) without a statistical difference (p .503). There was no statistical difference between the levels of glucose, glycated hemoglobin, weight, and blood pressure before and six months after the change. In the unit, the regimen glycemic control indicator improved in October, November, and December 2020 compared to the same months in 2021, it increased (from 17.2, 18.7, and 16.3, to 41.6, 47.2, and 46.5%). Blood pressure control went from 64.5, 66.7, and 67 to 82.4, 85.1, and 83.1%.
CONCLUSIONS: The control indicators in the unit improved, however, the patients who used the new keys did not show any difference.
