This study was added automatically, and its details were extracted by machine rather than read off the paper by a person. Carrie Schluter has reviewed the record, but that review did not re-extract those details, so the collection still publishes no population match, weight-loss explanation, study tier, findings, population or funding details for it: a check of automatically extracted details found too many errors to show them as fact.

Abstract

We assessed the effects of liraglutide treatment on five cardiovascular risk biomarkers, reflecting different pathophysiology: tumour necrosis factor (TNF)-α; soluble urokinase plasminogen activator receptor (suPAR); mid-regional pro-adrenomedullin (MR-proADM); mid-regional pro-atrial natriuretic peptide (MR-proANP); and copeptin, in people with type 2 diabetes with albuminuria. In a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, crossover trial we enrolled people with type 2 diabetes and persistent albuminuria (urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio [UACR] >30 mg/g) and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) ≥30 mL/min/1.73 m2 . Participants received liraglutide (1.8 mg/d) and matched placebo for 12 weeks, in random order. The primary endpoint was change in albuminuria; this was a prespecified sub-study. A total of 32 participants were randomized, of whom 27 completed the study. TNF-α level was 12% (95% confidence interval [CI] 3; 20) lower after liraglutide treatment compared with placebo (P = .012); MR-proADM level was 4% (95% CI 0; 8) lower after liraglutide treatment compared with placebo (P = .038), and MR-proANP level was 13% (95% CI 4; 21) lower after liraglutide treatment compared with placebo (P = .006). In the present study, we showed anti-inflammatory effects of liraglutide treatment, reflected in reductions in levels of TNF-α and MR-proADM, while the reduction in MR-proANP levels may represent a clinically relevant benefit with regard to heart failure.

dose: '30 mg' -> '1.8 mg/d'. Q-043: manufacturer and drug_details.dose re-extracted by auto-classifier-v1.2. manufacturer no longer reads companies named only in the authors' conflicts statement (IN-062) and refuses a multi-company roster; dose is tied to the GLP-1 agent by name, never reads a concentration, and records a multi-dose design whole. Every other value is carried forward unchanged. Owner decision IN-064 option 1, 2026-11-06.
