The aim of this study was to assess the therapeutic potential of oxytocin and liraglutide (LIR), a GLP-1 analogue, in a rat model of vincristine-induced neuropathy.
In general, patients using GLP-1-RA were younger (mean [SD], 49.6 [10.8] years vs 59.3 [10.9] years), had lower mean (SD) glycosylated hemoglobin levels (8.5% [1.2%] vs 9.6 [1.7%]), had lower mean (SD) fasting plasma glucose levels (9.0 [1.9] mmol/L vs 10.8 [2.6] mmol/L), higher mean (SD) body mass indexes (29.4 [3.9] kg/m<sup>2</sup> vs 24.6 [3.1] kg/m<sup>2</sup>), had higher comorbidity of obesity (75% vs 15%), had a higher occurrence of hyperlipidemia (63% vs 44%), and had lower occurrence of neuropathy (13% vs 34%) when compared with those using insulin (P < 0.0001 for all).
