Summary

To evaluate the effects of subcutaneous injection of semaglutide for 12 weeks on patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), compared with concurrent energy-restricted management, on glycemic control, weight loss, inflammatory markers, liver fat content, and other parameters. The study also observed the subcutaneous and visceral fat of the participants and explored the molecular mechanisms of action, providing high-quality evidence-based support for the timing and targets of intervention in this population.

Conditions

  • Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM)
  • Semaglutide
  • Caloric Restriction

Interventions

DRUG

semaglutide

The semaglutide group received weekly subcutaneous semaglutide (0.25 mg for weeks 1-2, 0.5 mg for weeks 3-4, and 1.0 mg for weeks 5-12).

BEHAVIORAL

caloric restriction

The caloric restriction group followed a gender-specific daily caloric restriction (1,500-1,800 kcal for males; 1,200-1,500 kcal for females).
