Circulating levels of insulin‐like growth factor I (IGF‐I) and risk of multiple myeloma: An observational and Mendelian randomisation study

British Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
Summary Evidence for an association between insulin‐like growth factors (IGF) and multiple myeloma (MM) is inconsistent. We examined total IGF‐I concentrations and risk of MM by combining baseline serological data among UK Biobank participants (n = 444 187; 732 incident MM) with a two‐sample Mendelian randomisation (MR) analysis using identified ...

A systematic review and meta‐analysis of the relative benefit of dual versus single oral hypoglycaemic therapy following diagnosis with type 2 diabetes (T2D)

Diabetic Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Achieving and sustaining target glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) levels is fundamental in the management of type 2 diabetes (T2D). We here aimed to assess whether initial dual oral therapy outperforms monotherapy in reaching glycaemic targets in patients with treatment‐naive or early‐stage T2D.
