Semaglutide is an anti-obesity and anti-diabetic drug used in long-term weight management and for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. A toxicology study was conducted on a generic synthetic version of Semaglutide Injection (2 mg/3 mL) produced by Bioco…
BACKGROUND: Liraglutide, semaglutide and tirzepatide have transformed the management of obesity. However, dose-related gastrointestinal effects, obesity-associated nutritional insufficiencies, and poor long-term adherence may limit their long-term he…
BACKGROUND: This study aimed to assess the prevalence of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist use and interest in using medications for weight loss among adults (≥ 18 years) in Great Britain. METHODS: Nationally representative household s…
Next-generation incretin therapies, including semaglutide and tirzepatide, have transformed obesity and Type 2 diabetes management. However, evidence-based nutritional strategies to support safe and effective use of these agents remain limited. To ad…
INTRODUCTION: Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) are antidiabetic agents that also induce weight loss. Their widespread use has prompted investigation of potential benefits beyond glycemic control, including effects on male sexual a…
Semaglutide, marketed as Ozempic, Wegovy and Rybelsus, has rapidly become one of the most prominent medications of recent years. Initially approved in 2021 for type 2 diabetes in adults, semaglutide is now authorised for obesity management in adults…
The global increase in obesity highlights the need for accurate tools to assess body composition and monitor treatment efficacy. Traditional metrics, including body mass index and waist circumference, offer limited precision for fat quantification. I…
BACKGROUND: Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) are increasingly prescribed for conditions beyond type 2 diabetes, including psoriasis and hidradenitis suppurativa. Despite this, little is known about their dermatologic safety profi…
In 2025, nephrology saw major advances in diagnosing and managing chronic kidney diseases. A new diagnostic framework, CKDx (chronic kidney disease of unexplained cause), was proposed to standardize patient evaluation by integrating genetic and histo…
IMPORTANCE: The association of bariatric surgery and newer glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs; semaglutide and tirzepatide) with body composition still lack evidence from clinical settings. OBJECTIVE: To examine temporal changes in f…
UNLABELLED: The global prevalence of diabetes continues to rise, necessitating advancements in treatment, such as glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists. While oral semaglutide has demonstrated comparable efficacy to injectable formulations, gastr…
AIMS: The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to evaluate the effect of GLP-1RAs on functional walking distance and the risk of major adverse limb events (MALE) or lower extremity amputation (LEA) in people with type 2 diabetes and pe…
AIMS: This study aims to compare the risk of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) among United States individuals with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) treated with once-weekly semaglutide vs. dulaglutide…
With rising obesity rates and increasing glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1 RA) use, understanding perinatal prescribing patterns is important. We conducted a retrospective cohort study to examine semaglutide and tirzepatide prescribing…
BACKGROUND: Chronic neuroinflammation is increasingly recognized not as a secondary effect but as a primary driver of neurodegenerative disease progression. In conditions such as Alzheimer's disease (AD), Parkinson's disease (PD), multiple sclerosis…
BACKGROUND: Patients with overweight or obesity (OW/OB) are at increased risk for multimorbidity (≥2 obesity-related complications [ORCs]) and accompanying increases in mortality and excess costs. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: A retrospective, observa…
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Semaglutide, a once-weekly injectable glucagon-like peptide, showed double-digit weight reduction with an acceptable safety profile in clinical trials and real-world studies. The efficacy and safety of non-comparable biotherapeut…
