Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RA) increase glucose-stimulated insulin secretion, suppress glucagon production, increase satiety, reduce food intake, improve insulin sensitivity, and reduce visceral fat. This study aims to compare the GLP-1RA and insulin combination or GLP-1RA added to background insulin therapy with other injectable therapies in patients with type-2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). We searched for studies that compared GLP-1RA and insulin combination with other injectable therapies in T2DM patients for HbA1c (%) change, achieving HbA1c
Key words: Basal insulin, Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists, Type 2 diabetes mellitus, Glycaemic control, Meta-analysis.
