INTRODUCTION: Patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) remain at high cardiovascular risk after acute coronary syndrome (ACS), particularly after myocardial infarction (MI). Evidence on the early post-ACS use of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (…
BACKGROUND: Glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) and sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2Is) have established cardiovascular benefits for patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), with similar class-level effectivenes…
Prediabetes is a frequently occurring condition with increased risk of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and cardiovascular disease. Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) are established antidiabetic agents, also used to treat obesity. T…
Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) medicines improve metabolic liver disease through weight-loss-dependent and -independent actions. Here, we interrogated semaglutide's action in mice with metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH). In Glp1…
The present study determined the effectiveness of the glucagon-like peptide 1 agonist semaglutide to attenuate cocaine-vs-food choice in male and female rats. Repeated 5-day semaglutide treatment decreased cocaine choice and significantly reduced bod…
Incretin-based therapies, including glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs), are approved for the treatment of type 2 diabetes, obesity, and related conditions, and have demonstrated significant benefits for individuals with these condit…
The obesity pandemic continues to increase in prevalence in children and adolescents, with its increase outpacing the rate of adult obesity; the human developmental index, body mass index, and family income all display associations to childhood obesi…
BACKGROUND: To investigate the oral semaglutide use among Mexican adults with type 2 diabetes. METHODS: PIONEER REAL was a multinational, open-label study evaluating oral semaglutide in patients without prior injectable glucose-lowering treatment. Th…
In this update, we discuss the use of real-world data in the Haute Autorité de Santé assessment of economic evaluations, review how real-world evidence is supporting regulatory approvals in multiple myeloma, and consider lessons from the failed EVOKE…
BACKGROUND: A number of novel antidiabetic drugs have been developed. These drugs include sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT-2is), glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs), and dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors (DPP-4is). How…
A sixty-five-year-old white woman with obesity class II, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, obstructive sleep apnea, osteoarthritis, and pre-diabetes was started on subcutaneous semaglutide, a glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1 RA), for weigh…
BACKGROUND: Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1RA) therapy is increasingly used, but the physiological effects in patients with heart failure and reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) remain uncertain. Continuously collected data from implant…
BACKGROUND: Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) improve cardiovascular outcomes in obesity and HFpEF; however, their safety and efficacy in heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) remain uncertain. AIMS: We sought to eva…
BACKGROUND: Obesity is a worldwide health concern linked to cardiometabolic comorbidities such as type 2 diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidemia, and heart disease. The management of obesity using pharmacotherapy, especially with GLP-1 receptor agonists…
BACKGROUND: Body contouring surgery (BCS) addresses excess skin following significant weight loss. While bariatric surgery has been the primary intervention for massive weight loss, the rise of GLP-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) introduces a new pat…
AIMS: To characterize the cardiometabolic profiles of oral and subcutaneous glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor mono-agonists in adults with overweight or obesity, with or without type 2 diabetes (T2D), using network meta-analysis (NMA). MATERIA…
BACKGROUND: Laboratory changes after antiobesity drugs in routine care are not well-described. STUDY QUESTION: In adults with obesity and no diabetes, how do 2-year laboratory trends and major clinical outcomes compare after starting semaglutide vers…
AIMS: Young adults (aged ≤ 40 years) are underrepresented in clinical trials that investigate interventions for those living with Type 2 diabetes (T2D). This study evaluated the efficacy of semaglutide treatment in young adults with T2D by examining…
AIMS: To investigate the association between use of GLP-1 receptor agonists and incident Parkinson's disease. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Cohort study using data from nationwide registers in Denmark, Norway and Sweden and an active-comparator, new-user des…
