AIM: Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists provide multiple benefits to patients with type 2 diabetes, including improved glycaemic control, weight loss and decreased risk of major adverse cardiovascular events. Because drug responses vary among…
The glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor (GLP1R) is a broadly expressed target of peptide hormones with essential roles in energy and glucose homeostasis, as well as of the blockbuster weight-loss drugs semaglutide and liraglutide. Despite its large clin…
CONTEXT: Prior to this study, it is known that type 2 diabetes is linked to obesity and a sedentary lifestyle, leading to inadequate β-cell function and insulin resistance. Limited research has explored the metabolic effects of combining exercise tra…
OBJECTIVE: Self-perceived cognitive functioning, considered highly relevant in the context of aging and dementia, is assessed in numerous ways-hindering the comparison of findings across studies and settings. Therefore, the present study aimed to lin…
A glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1RA) has recently been established as a pharmacological option for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. Recent studies have demonstrated the molecular role of GLP-1R in skeletal muscle homeostasis; however…
BACKGROUND: Diabetes mellitus (DM) and obesity are associated with total knee arthroplasty (TKA) complications. Semaglutide, a medication for DM and weight loss, can potentially affect TKA outcomes. This study investigated whether semaglutide use dur…
PURPOSE: Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) such as semaglutide are a class of medications prescribed to treat type 2 diabetes mellitus, and more recently, as an adjunct for weight loss because of its effects of delaying gastric em…
Obesity is a chronically progressing disease that represents a major challenge for affected patients, health care professionals and society, since it is highly prevalent and associated with several comorbidities. The treatment of obesity aims at body…
INTRODUCTION: As new glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonist (GLP-1 RA) formulations are available, the aim of this study was to understand dulaglutide and subcutaneous (s.c.) semaglutide dosing patterns in people with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM…
AIMS: To develop paediatric physiologically based pharmacokinetic modelling (PBPK) models of semaglutide to estimate the pharmacokinetic profile for subcutaneous injections in children and adolescents with healthy and obese body weights. METHODS: Pha…
BACKGROUND: The majority of patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) have the obesity phenotype, but no therapies specifically targeting obesity in HFpEF exist. OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to describe the design…
BACKGROUND: Glucagon-like peptide1 receptor (GLP-1R) agonists have been found to reduce alcohol drinking in rodents and overweight patients with alcohol use disorder (AUD). However, the probability of low semaglutide doses, an agonist with higher pot…
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) can lead to liver fibrosis and cirrhosis. Recently, glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs), a class of drugs used to treat type 2 diabetes and obesity, have shown therapeutic effects against NAFL…
INTRODUCTION: Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) have emerged as a cornerstone treatment for type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The aim of the present meta-analysis was to assess whether semaglutide exerts greater effects on glycemia…
BACKGROUND: Management of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) remains a challenge given limited data. Although current guidelines recommend use of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) for t…
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a growing challenge across the globe. The disease process is amendable to lifestyle modifications in the early stages. If those changes fail to correct endocrine dysfunction, medical therapy is initiated. Initially,…
