Comparison of high intensity focused ultrasound and radioiodine for treating toxic thyroid nodules.

abstract：OBJECTIVE:Glucagon-like peptide-1 is an insulin secretion-stimulating gut hormone that is produced in response to food intake. Orlistat (Xenical, F. Hoffman-La Roche, Basel, Switzerland), which decreases fat absorption and increases intestinal fat content, may therefore affect the secretion of glucagon-like peptide-1. ...
