A dual GIP and GLP-1 receptor agonist approved for type 2 diabetes and obesity.
INTRODUCTION: Over the past 2 decades, treatment for type 2 diabetes (T2D) has evolved with the introduction of medications that offer greater simplicity. The Simplicity of Diabetes Treatment Questionnaire (Sim-Q™) was developed to assess the simplic…
Background Cellulite is a highly prevalent condition associated with alterations in adipose tissue architecture, microcirculation, and connective tissue integrity. Emerging evidence suggests that cellulite may represent a manifestation of both local…
OBJECTIVE: Ketoacidosis is a critical adverse event requiring close clinical monitoring. Based on the Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) database of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), this study aimed to identify the drugs with the clos…
The year 2025 represented a turning point in metabolic research, marked by advances that combined unprecedented clinical efficacy with deep mechanistic insight. Landmark obesity trials redefined therapeutic expectations, with head-to-head and combina…
Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) have recently emerged as a promising therapeutic option for patients to aid in weight loss; however, little is known about the potential psychiatric side effects of these medications. In this repo…
Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1s), including semaglutide and tirzepatide, are rapidly transforming weight management practices and public discourse surrounding bodies, health, and responsibility. Although biomedical outcomes of GLP-1…
Carrying a germline mutation inis associated with an increased risk of several cancers, including breast and ovarian. Our recent work has demonstrated that obesity is associated with elevated levels of DNA damage in breast glands in this high-risk po…
Background Tirzepatide, a dual glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist, has demonstrated substantial efficacy in reducing body weight and improving glycemic control in randomized trials;…
Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) is closely associated with obesity and metabolic dysfunction. Tirzepatide, a dual GLP-1 and GIP receptor agonist, has demonstrated superior efficacy for weight reduction and improved metabolic health compared w…
AIMS: Evidence on cardiovascular/renal outcomes associated with GLP-1-based therapies in type 1 diabetes (T1D) is limited. We examined the effects of GLP-1-based therapy on major clinical outcomes and safety, including diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) and…
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: To examine the role of pharmacologic obesity treatment in people with type 2 diabetes (T2D), with a focus on efficacy, safety, and clinical positioning in the context of T2D-specific metabolic and therapeutic challenges. RECENT FIN…
Objective Tirzepatide, a dual glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist, has been shown to improve hepatic inflammation and steatosis in patients with type 2 diabetes. However, whether its…
Numerous reports have documented the incidence of euglycemic ketoacidosis as a complication of sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors. However, euglycemic ketoacidosis secondary to the use of glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (…
AIMS: Targeting the glucose dependent insulinotropic polypeptide receptor (GIPR) is of growing interest for treating type 2 diabetes and obesity, though the optimal approach remains unclear. Both GIPR agonism and antagonism, respectively, incorporate…
AIMS: We aimed at comparing different approved strategies (obesity management medications-OMM, endoscopic bariatric procedures-EBP, and metabolic bariatric surgery-MBS) with lifestyle intervention/placebo/no therapy (LSI/Pbo/NT) for the treatment of…
