Excerpt:

Cystic Fibrosis Ohiglucon (unique, with some simil-
arities to some aspects of Cellosis, and differing
similarities to a few aspects of Insulinitis, it's
different enough to list this as a unique High
Glucose Condition; 1 in 2500 are born with Cystic
Fibrosis; of those with Cystic Fibrosis, a High ...

... Glucose Condition is present in 2% of children,
19% of adolescents, and 40% to 50% of adults)

Trial suggests [Repaglintide] tablets
effective in newly diagnosed [Cystic
Fibrosis Ohiglucon]

[Note - Repaglintide and Exogenous Insulin
(exogenous insulin required by everyone
with Insulinitis to stay alive), the focus
of this article, are among the medications
that cause hypoglycemia:

Hypo-causing treatments: exogenous insulin,
pramlintide, nateglinide, lixisenatide,
repaglinide, sulfonylureas - any of these
+ exercise amplifies hypoglycemia risk]

A trial carried out in Europe suggests
that repaglinide tablets are as effective
and safe [or, in a glass half empty mode,
as risky] as [exogenous] insulin in treat-
ing people with newly diagnosed [Cystic
Fibrosis Ohiglucon].

[Cystic Fibrosis Ohiglucon] can result
from the genetic condition cystic fibrosis
if the pancreas becomes scarred or if
insulin resistance develops because of
steroid use.

The most common medication to date is for
people with [Cystic Fibrosis Ohiglucon] to
use [exogenous] insulin to [lower] their
blood sugar [glucose].

However, the new trial suggests that the
[Cellosis, new name created in 2010 for
type 2 diabetes] medication repaglinide
may be more effective.

Repaglinide is in a class of drugs called
glinides which stimulate the pancreas to
release more insulin. This helps lower
blood sugar [glucose] but also increases
the likelihood of weight gain.

Because of this, glinides are falling out
of favour as a drug to treat [Cellosis].

With [Cystic Fibrosis Ohiglucon], patients
typically struggle to put weight on and so
the weight gain associated with insulin and
glinides is less likely to occur.

The trial tested the effects of repaglinide
against [exogenous] insulin over a 24-month
period. ...

The results showed that difference in HbA1c
was similar in both groups. HbA1c increased
on average by a small amount ... for repag-
linide users and reduced by [a small amount]
in the insulin users.

The insulin users therefore had better HbA1c
by ... 0.4% than repaglinide users. However,
the difference was not statistically different.

Effects on safety were similar in repaglinide
and insulin. As the effects on HbA1c were
roughly similar, the fact that tablets are
easier to take than insulin suggests that
repaglinide may be a better option for some
patients. ...

... more studies will be useful to assess
whether there are other benefits and dis-
advantages of tablets over insulin ...

created new superior clarifying names for
all the disparate conditions which for
close to 1,900 years used the confusing
misleading diabetes word, often without
any clarifier.

Diabetes Bubble / Diabetes Bubble Burst

Remember, the ancient diabetes word, when
that word was created close to 1,900 years
ago, nothing was known about the following:

o In 1869, Paul Langerhans was the first
to describe the islets of Langerhans,
which bear his name.

o In 1921, Frederick Grant Banting and
Charles Herbert Best discovered insulin.
