glimepiride: structure given in first source

Myotonic Dystrophy: Neuromuscular disorder characterized by PROGRESSIVE MUSCULAR ATROPHY; MYOTONIA, and various multisystem atrophies. Mild INTELLECTUAL DISABILITY may also occur. Abnormal TRINUCLEOTIDE REPEAT EXPANSION in the 3' UNTRANSLATED REGIONS of DMPK PROTEIN gene is associated with Myotonic Dystrophy 1. DNA REPEAT EXPANSION of zinc finger protein-9 gene intron is associated with Myotonic Dystrophy 2.

"It is important to choose the optimal treatment for DM in myotonic dystrophy, because the patients have hyperinsulinemia caused by specific mechanism and could not reduce the insulin resistance."5.33Low-dose metformin improves hyperglycaemia related to myotonic dystrophy. ( Komiya, I; Kouki, T; Nakachi, A; Takasu, N; Tamanaha, T; Tawata, M, 2005)
