Semaglutide, a glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist, is an effective drug reducing body weight and decreasing motivation for palatable food. The mechanisms underlying its effects on food reward remain unclear. We aimed to determine the impact of…
INTRODUCTION: Genetic obesity susceptibility in postoperative bariatric surgery weight regain (PBSWR) remains largely unexplored. METHODS: A retrospective case series of adult (N = 27) PBSWR patients who had undergone genetic obesity testing was cond…
Glucagon-like peptide-1 Receptor agonists (GLP-1Ras) such as liraglutide and semaglutide have been recently approved as medications for chronic weight management in people living with obesity (PwO); GLP-1 may enhance bone metabolism and improve bone…
AIM: To explore the safety and efficacy of subcutaneous semaglutide 2.4 mg, administered once a week in non-diabetic overweight or obese individuals. METHODS: A thorough search was performed of various databases including PubMed, Embase, the Cochrane…
OBJECTIVE: Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs), initially for type 2 diabetes mellitus, show promise in promoting weight loss and improving heart health in obese individuals without diabetes. Our goal was to examine existing researc…
OBJECTIVE: To assess the impact of concomitant metformin use on gastrointestinal adverse events during the initiation and titration of a glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonist (GLP-1RA). RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: Using data from four clinical tr…
OBJECTIVE: The study's objective was to examine the percentage of patients with an initial antiobesity medication (AOM) fill who were persistent with AOM at 3, 6, and 12 months and to characterize factors associated with persistence at 12 months. MET…
OBJECTIVE: Dual glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and glucagon receptor agonists are therapeutic agents with an interesting liver-specific mode of action suitable for metabolic complications. In this study, dual GLP-1 and glucagon receptor agonist OXM-…
INTRODUCTION: Long-term effectiveness and durability of glucose-lowering medications are important considerations in managing type 2 diabetes (T2D). This study aimed to compare durability of treatment efficacy of once-weekly (OW) semaglutide for T2D…
BACKGROUND: As new antidiabetic drugs, tirzepatide (Tir) and semaglutide (Sem) are progressively applied in clinical practice. However, their efficacy and safety profiles have not been comprehensively assessed. Therefore, a Bayesian network meta-anal…
OBJECTIVE: The metabolic benefits of GLP-1 receptor (GLP-1R) agonists on glycemic and weight control are well established as therapy for type 2 diabetes and obesity. Glucagon's ability to increase energy expenditure is well described, and the combina…
The permeation enhancers (PEs) sodium caprate (C10) and sodium N-[8-(2-hydroxybenzoyl) amino] caprylate (SNAC) have been utilized for the intestinal and gastric delivery of macromolecules, respectively. However, the potential of C10 for the gastric d…
AIM: To assess whether oral semaglutide provides better glycaemic control, compared with dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor (DPP-4i) continuation, in people with type 2 diabetes. MATERIALS AND METHODS: In this multicentre, open-label, prospective, rand…
INTRODUCTION: Recently, the European Medicines Agency (EMA) received reports of suicidal thoughts and self-injury associated with glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) liraglutide and semaglutide. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: Herein,…
BACKGROUND: Obesity is a significant public health issue; new therapies and pharmaceutical approaches to weight management are needed. OBJECTIVE: This study assesses weight reduction efficacy in the novel swallow balloon procedure and semaglutide, bo…
