Effect of Dapagliflozin on Body Weight in Overweight Women Consuming Different Proportions of Carbohydrate Diet.

Summary

In recent years, the prevalence of overweight and obesity has increased dramatically worldwide, of which 34.3% and 16.4% of adults in China are overweight and obese, respectively, ranking first in the world's obese population. Dapagliflozin is a sodium-glucose transporter 2 Inhibitors that inhibits glucose reabsorption and promotes urinary glucose excretion by inhibiting renal proximal tubular sodium-glucose transporter 2 Inhibitors for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus. The urinary glucose excretion induced by dapagliflozin can induce weight loss through energy loss or body water loss caused by osmotic diuresis. In addition, in patients with type 2 diabetes, dapagliflozin may also induce weight loss by reducing body fat as well as subcutaneous and visceral fat.In a randomized controlled trial, type 2 diabetes patients treated with sodium-glucose transporter 2 Inhibitors lost approximately 1-3 kg. Also, sodium-glucose transporter 2 Inhibitors have shown good weight loss in obese people without type 2 diabetes. In real-world studies, a minority of type 2 diabetes patients taking dapagliflozin experienced weight gain. The American Lipid Association defines a low carbohydrate diet as the calorie intake of carbohydrates accounting for 10-25% of the total daily energy intake. In a randomized controlled trial, a low-carbon diet showed a more significant decrease in body weight, fat mass index, whole body fat, and visceral fat after 8 weeks compared to the standard diet. So, this study intends to investigate whether the weight loss effect of dapagliflozin is affected by different dietary structures.
