Abstract Objective To investigate the influence of Lilarutide combined with Metformin on bodyweight, fat distribution and β cell function in overweight/obese subjects with early type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).Methods A total of 80 newly diagnosed overweight/obese T2DM patients treated in our hospital from June 2018 to June 2019 were selected as the research objects, and they were divided into the study group and the control group by a random number table method, 40 cases in each group.The control group was treated with Metformin, and the study group was treated with Liraglutide on the basis of the control group.The treatment lasted 24 weeks.Changes in bodyweight, body mass index(BMI), fasting blood glucose (FBG), glycosylated hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), visceral fat area (VFA), subcutaneous fat area (SFA), homeostasis model assessment-β cell (HOMA-β) and homeostasis model assessment-insulin resistance(HOMA-IR) were compared between the two groups before and after treatment.Results After treatment, the bodyweight, BMI, FBG, HbA1c, HOMA-IR, VFA and SFA of the two groups were lower than those before treatment, and HOMA-β of the two groups was higher than that before treatment, with statistically significant differences (P<0.05).After treatment, the bodyweight, BMI, FBG, HbA1c, HOMA-IR, VFA and SFA of the patients in the study group were lower than those in the control group, and HOMA-β in the study group was higher than that in the control group, with statistically significant differences (P<0.05).There was no significant difference in the ratio of VFA to SFA (VSR) between the two groups before and after treatment (P>0.05).Conclusion Liraglutide has good effects on reducing glucose,weight loss, improving fat distribution and β cell function in overweight/obese subjects with early T2DM.
