description | This study aimed to systematically evaluate the efficacy of liraglutide in treating type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) complicated with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) by comparing liraglutide with placebo or other drugs (mainly insulin). The PubMed, Web of Science, and National Library of Medicine databases were systematically searched from their inception until December 1, 2023. A meta-analysis was performed using Stata 15.1 software. A total of 12 studies with 13 outcome measures were included. The meta-analysis results revealed that liraglutide significantly reduced body mass index (mean difference [MD] = –1.06, 95%CI: –1.41, –0.70, p < 0.001), triglycerides (MD = –0.35, 95%CI: –0.61, –0.09, p = 0.0009), visceral adipose tissue (MD = –21.06, 95%CI: –34.58, –7.55, p = 0.002), and subcutaneous adipose tissue (MD = –20.53, 95%CI: –29.15, –11.90, p < 0.001) levels in patients with T2DM and NAFLD. Of the 11 studies, 2 reported the occurrence of adverse reactions, which were primarily gastrointestinal. Compared with placebo and other drugs (e.g., insulin), liraglutide may improve glucose metabolism, lipid and liver function parameters, and visceral and subcutaneous fat in patients with T2DM and NAFLD, thus constituting an effective treatment for these patients. |
