Summary
This study looked at whether two types of diabetes medications (DPP4 and SGLT2 inhibitors) are safe and helpful for people with Parkinson's disease or Lewy body dementia who also have mild diabetes or pre-diabetes. 18 participants took the drugs for 4 weeks, and researchers measured changes in movement, thinking, and blood sugar. The goal was to see if these drugs could improve symptoms, but this was a small, early-phase trial.
