CONCLUSIONS: While brinzolamide shows improvement in visual acuity and NAFX score in idiopathic INS, its clinical significance needs further evidence.
CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE: This randomized clinical trial of Chinese adults with overweight or obesity and with early type 2 diabetes found that 5:2 MR could improve glycemic outcomes and weight loss in the short term compared with metformin or empagliflozin, making it a promising initial intervention and early management for type 2 diabetes.
