A dual GIP and GLP-1 receptor agonist approved for type 2 diabetes and obesity.
Heart failure (HF) and atherosclerosis represent two major cardiovascular diseases that are intricately linked, both contributing significantly to global morbidity, mortality, and healthcare burden. Despite substantial progress in diagnostic methods…
BACKGROUND: This study seeks to compare the effectiveness of Semaglutide compared to Liraglutide, Dulaglutide, or Tirzepatide. Additionally, it aims to investigate the implications of transitioning from Dulaglutide or Liraglutide to Semaglutide. METH…
The global prevalence of early-onset type 2 diabetes (EOT2D) is rising rapidly. Adults with EOT2D represent a high-risk population characterised by increased rates of microvascular and macrovascular complications, adverse psychological wellbeing and…
OBJECTIVE: In SURMOUNT-4, participants with obesity or overweight regained substantial weight after tirzepatide withdrawal, whereas continued treatment resulted in additional weight reduction. We evaluated the effect of continued tirzepatide treatmen…
BACKGROUND: Obesity is a chronic disease with significant global health repercussions. GLP-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) and dual GIP/GLP-1 receptor agonists (GIP/GLP-1RAs) are now established as evidence-based options for long-term obesity manageme…
Recent pharmacological advances, illustrated by molecules such as semaglutide 2,4 mg and tirzepatide, have transformed the management of obesity. New innovative molecules, based in particular on key entero-pancreatic hormones such as glucagon-like pe…
AIMS: This meta-analysis evaluates the rates of pancreatitis/pancreatic cancer among glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) in randomised controlled trials (RCTs). METHODS: Following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews…
: Patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) face elevated risk of hepatobiliary complications. The biliary safety of GLP-1 and dual GLP-1/GIP receptor agonists in this population is uncertain.: We conducted a…
The coexistence of type 2 diabetes (T2D), metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), and cardiovascular disease (CVD) defines a clinical profile that is frequently observed in clinical practice. In addition to being highly prev…
OBJECTIVE: We assessed the impact of medical weight management (MWM; lifestyle modification ± obesity medications) on major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) compared to metabolic and bariatric surgery (MBS) and usual care (UC). METHODS: We retros…
PURPOSE: This review summarizes the comprehensive management of obesity with a focus on the pharmacology, efficacy, and safety of anti-obesity medications. SUMMARY: Obesity is a highly prevalent chronic disease with significant health risks, requirin…
KEY POINTS: People with obesity and/or type 2 diabetes are at higher risk of progressive kidney function loss. We assessed the association of tirzepatide use with kidney function parameters in people with overweight/obesity with or without type 2 dia…
AIMS: To understand real-world tirzepatide use among individuals without type 2 diabetes (T2D) diagnoses in a US electronic health record (EHR) database. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This retrospective, descriptive, cohort study used Veradigm's® Network EH…
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: This review summarizes emerging evidence on the use of the dual glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP)/glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist (RA) tirzepatide in improving obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) outcome…
PURPOSE: This study aims to investigate the possible impacts of fasting on physical activity and weight loss in adult users of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) agonists, specifically semaglutide and tirzepatide, using qualitative methods to gain in-de…
The SUMMIT trialshowed that the dual glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) and GLP-1 receptor agonist tirzepatide improves quality of life and reduces worsening heart failure (HF) events in patients with HF with preserved ejection fracti…
PURPOSE: Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) approved for type 2 diabetes and overweight or obesity may affect alcohol drinking behavior. The present prospective observational study investigated hazardous alcohol drinking in patient…
