The phrase "amigo study" is not correct and does not convey a clear meaning in written English.
It may be intended to refer to a study involving friends or a friendly approach to studying, but it lacks clarity and context.
Example: "During our amigo study session, we helped each other with difficult subjects."
Alternatives: "friend study" or "study with friends".
Owing to the recruitment strategy of the AMIGO study, we are able to follow up many such health outcomes through general practitioner-recorded diagnoses, medication prescriptions and referrals.
The findings of the AMIGO study will be disseminated through scientific conferences and peer-reviewed journals, and subsequently through, for example, newsletters and summaries on the project website to participants, stakeholders (eg, general practitioners, policymakers) and the wider public.
The AMIGO studies showed that after 30 weeks of exenatide treatment, the reduction in A1C was ∼0.8 1.0% compared with placebo treatment (1).
However, ∼20 25% of patients in the AMIGO studies and the LEAD program did not lose weight during treatment with exenatide or liraglutide, respectively.
In the three AMIGO studies, a total of 1,441 type 2 diabetic patients were included, and during a 3-year follow-up of a subgroup of participants (n = 314), the reduction of A1C was stabilized at ∼1.1% (33).
In an open-label extension of the Three Amigos studies, 3 years' sustained effects were demonstrated for glycemic control and body weight (decrease in HbA1c of 1% and body weight of 5.3 kg).
In the AMIGO and LEAD studies, weight loss after 14 52 weeks of treatment was 1.5 4 kg compared with placebo treatment (1, 20, 26, 31, 32, 43).
The primary health outcomes studied in AMIGO are cancer, neurological, respiratory, psychological and cardiovascular diseases, and non-specific symptoms.
The Gene Ontology term enrichment analyses in this study were performed using GO-TermFinder [ 45] through the AmiGO web site http://amigo.geneontology.org/cgi-bin/amigo/term_enrichment.
A selection of major biological process categories relevant to cancer studies were selected and all related biological process GO terms retrieved using the AmiGO browser and search engine on the Gene Ontology website [ 46].
Proteins, phosphoproteins and glycoproteins identified in this study were categorized according to their respective subcellular locations and biological processes using the RGD database with AmiGo Go Slimmer online annotation tools [33], [34].
