Cost Effectiveness Of Lifestyle Program For Diabetes Remission In The Era Of Glp-1, Prasanthi Tondapu, Haasini Sunkavalli, Micaela C. Karlsen, Kara L. Staffier, Kathryn J. Pollard, Surabhi Naik

North Texas GME Research Forum 2026

BACKGROUND: GLP-1 receptor agonists are popular for managing type 2 diabetes (T2D) and obesity but are costly and can result in side effects including weight rebound. Intensive therapeutic lifestyle change (ITLC) programs present an effective alternative, facilitating an HbA1C (A1C) less than 6.5% for 3 months without medication and long-term weight control.

CASE PRESENTATION: We present a 69-year-old Black man with T2D, hypertension, chronic kidney disease, obesity, and sleep apnea. In 2023, he was hospitalized with a blood glucose of 800 mg/dL and A1C 10.8% and discharged on insulin. And, with a BMI of 32 kg/m2 and weight of 238.6 …

Association Of Glp-1 Receptor Agonist Use With Postoperative Outcomes After Rotator Cuff Repair In Patients With Diabetes: A Propensity Score–Matched Analysis, Mckenna W. Box, Troy B. Puga, Hans Drawbert, Aysu Erdemir, John T. Riehl

North Texas GME Research Forum 2026

Background Diabetes impairs tendon healing after rotator cuff repair (RCR), with early postoperative poor glycemic control linked to a higher failure risk in studies. GLP-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) are increasingly used for glycemic control. Preclinical studies indicate that GLP-1RA may benefit rotator cuff healing through anti-inflammatory mechanisms as well. However, real-world data on the effects of GLP-1RAs on RCR outcomes remain incompletely understood.

Methods We conducted a retrospective cohort study using an institutional dataset (01/01/2016 to 09/30/2024) of adults aged 18-74 years with type 2 diabetes who underwent RCR. GLP-1RA exposure was established by home medication lists. Patients with autoimmune …

Implementing Intermittent Fasting Education For Improved A1c Control In Type 2 Diabetes Patients, Dakota Dalton, Elizabeth White, Malinda Hansen, Tasaduq Mir

North Texas Research Forum 2025

Background: Management of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) in the UNTHSC Family Medicine clinic varies among residents, with some advocating robust lifestyle counseling and others relying more on medical management. This leads to inconsistencies in patient education and treatment strategies. Lifestyle interventions such as dietary modifications, are unfortunately too often underutilized in the clinic and in primary care in general, despite strong evidence supporting their efficacy in control of both A1C measurements and random fasting blood sugar, and improved prognosis of diabetes. To address this, we have designed and introduced an intermittent fasting (IF) handout as a supplemental standardized educational …

The Intersection Of Hypophysitis And Central Diabetes Insipidus: A Clinical Case Report, Sanjana Kesireddy, Brina Gonzalez, Mohan Sengodan

North Texas Research Forum 2025

INTRODUCTION: Hypophysitis can cause damage to the posterior pituitary, which in turn impairs the production or release of ADH, leading to the symptoms of central diabetes insipidus. Without enough ADH, the kidneys cannot concentrate urine, resulting in the symptoms of excessive thirst and urination seen in central diabetes insidious. CASE PRESENTATION: 27 year old female presents with excessive thirst, headache, nausea and vomiting. Patient had increased urine output since endoscopic trans sphenoidal resection of pituatary mass. She was started on desmpressin 0.2mg orally three times a day. Based on urine specific gravity and urine output per hour, IV desmopressin was …

The Effect Of High Frequency Low Amplitude (Hfla) Vibration On Blood Flow - Literature Review, Zara Soomro, Patrick Feng, Olufunmilola Adeleye, Yi Lei, Aaishah Vohra, Malinda Hansen, Michele Mccarroll

North Texas Research Forum 2025

BACKGROUND: Diabetic foot ulcers are a major source of preventable morbidity in adults with diabetes; however, complications impose an increased burden on patients and healthcare systems. Vibration therapy is a potential new modality for DFU treatment, which may be more accessible to individuals. Literature pertaining to the effect of high-frequency low amplitude (HFLA) vibrotherapy on wound healing needs a literature review to help synthesize and integrate the empirical studies' results. The purpose of this study is to review how vibration physiology relates to skin blood flow which impacts wound healing based on previous studies. METHODS: A selective literature review was …

Humoral Influences On The Heart: A Case Of Overt Hypothyroidism And Dilated Cardiomyopathy With Acute Heart Failure, Shana-Kay Lambert-Johnson, Rui Zhang, Brian Yu, Tasaduq Mir

North Texas Research Forum 2025

BACKGROUND/INTRODUCTION: Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) affects approximately 7 in 100,000 adults annually, with a mortality rate of 50%. It is typically idiopathic, progressive, and irreversible. However, in the context of hypothyroidism, DCM can be reversible. Hypothyroid-induced DCM with coexisting systolic dysfunction is a rare occurrence. This case report presents an exceptional instance of this phenomenon, highlighting the critical role of thyroid hormone replacement in improving patient outcomes. CASE PRESENTATION: A 48-year-old female with a medical history of hypothyroidism (post-thyroidectomy) was transferred for higher-level care due to new-onset heart failure. Over the past five months, she experienced worsening dyspnea on exertion, fatigue, …
