Carnitine in Alcohol Use Disorders: A Scoping Review

A. Brianne Bota et al.

Summary: Recent studies have shown connections between carnitine metabolism and alcohol use disorders (AUDs). The scoping review aimed to examine existing research on this topic and develop hypotheses surrounding the role carnitine plays in AUD. Limited literature suggests that alcohol use impacts carnitine metabolism, particularly in the context of alcoholic cirrhosis. There is early evidence supporting the use of carnitine supplementation as a treatment for AUD.

Systematic review and meta-analysis for prevention of cardiovascular complications using GLP-1 receptor agonists and SGLT-2 inhibitors in obese diabetic patients

Kazushi Uneda et al.

Summary: Patients with T2DM and obesity are at high risk of developing CVD. GLP-1 RAs have shown to significantly reduce the risk of MACE in T2DM patients with obesity, while SGLT-2 inhibitors have a similar effect. Direct comparison between the two drugs did not show a significant difference, indicating the need for further studies to determine the superiority of GLP-1 RAs over SGLT-2 inhibitors.

Quantitative efficacy of L-carnitine supplementation on glycemic control in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients

Dong-Dong Wang et al.

Summary: This study used model-based meta-analysis to explore the quantitative efficacy of L-carnitine supplementation on glycemic control in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients. The study found the maximal effect and duration to reach half of the maximal effect for both fasting plasma glucose (FPG) and glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) models. Additionally, the study analyzed the time durations for L-carnitine to achieve different percentages of maximal effects on FPG and HbA1c.
