The epidemics of metabolic disease, in the form of obesity and type 2 diabetes, are a growing public health concern. However, incretin-based therapeutics have transformed our ability to address these diseases. While this current generation of increti…
INTRODUCTION: Obesity management medications can reduce body weight and have an impact on patients' appetite and eating behaviors. Existing patient-reported outcome (PRO) measures do not fully capture appetite and eating behavior concepts relevant to…
INTRODUCTION: Glucagon receptor agonists (GRAs) are an emerging class of therapies for obesity and type 2 diabetes, demonstrating encouraging metabolic and weight-reducing effects. Several investigational GRA-based agents, including retatrutide, cota…
INTRODUCTION: Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) are increasingly used for T2DM and obesity. AREAS COVERED: An electronic search was conducted in Scopus, PubMed/MEDLINE, and Google Scholar databases. Retatrutide (LY3437943) is a nov…
OBJECTIVE/METHODS: Our aim was to evaluate the efficacy of the triple glucagon, GIP, and GLP-1 receptor agonist retatrutide in diet-induced obese MASH mouse and hamster models, two preclinical models that we routinely use for assessing new therapies…
INTRODUCTION: Melanocortin 4 receptor (MC4R) is a G-protein-coupled receptor expressed in the hypothalamus, playing a key role in regulating feeding behavior and energy homeostasis. MC4R is integral to the POMC-MC4R and leptin-MC4R pathways, which co…
Incretin-based dual and triple agonists have emerged as effective options for obesity management, offering enhanced weight loss through multi-receptor agonism. However, data on their efficacy and safety remain limited. We conducted a systematic revie…
OBJECTIVE: Obesity and overweight are associated with significant psychosocial burden. Existing patient-reported outcome (PRO) measures only assess a subset of emotion-related concepts that are relevant to individuals living with these conditions. Th…
OBJECTIVES: To explore the association of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) on heart rate (HR) in overweight or obese patients without diabetes. METHODS: A comprehensive search of the PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, and Cochrane Li…
Dual and triple incretin-based therapies are transforming treatment for type 2 diabetes mellitus, obesity, and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. By targeting glucagon-like peptide-1, glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide, and glucagon recepto…
Incretin-based pharmacotherapy has rapidly transformed obesity management. However, despite its efficacy, gastrointestinal (GI) adverse events (AEs) are common and represent a major driver of treatment discontinuation. Symptoms such as nausea, vomiti…
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Metabolic dysfunction–associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is highly prevalent among individuals with type 2 diabetes (T2D). This review summarizes current evidence on the pharmacologic treatment of MASLD, with emphasis on ag…
Metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD), recently redefined from non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), highlights the central role of metabolic dysfunction in its pathophysiology. The L-α-lysophosphatidylinositol/G protein-c…
Pediatric obesity is increasing at an alarming rate, affecting over 381 million children worldwide and emerging as a critical public health issue. According to World Health Organization (WHO) 2016, 40% of adults are overweight and 13% are obese, high…
SARS-CoV-2 is a global problem nowadays. Based on studies, some human receptors are involved in binding to SARS-CoV-2. Thus, the inhibition of these receptors can be effective in the treatment of Covid-19. Because of the proven benefits of antimicrob…
STUDY DESIGN: A retrospective cohort study. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to investigate the relationship between disruption of cartilage endplates and postoperative recurrence of lumber disk herniation (LDH) using preoperative T1-weighted magnetic res…
Tillage operation aims to create a favorable environment for seed germination of agricultural crop production practices. Physio-mechanical properties of soil directly affecting soil behaviors and determinants in initial conditions affecting soil fail…
ABSTRACT: This study compared the efficacy and safety of two highly purified (HP) human menopausal gonadotropin (hMG) preparations, Gynogen HP and Menopur, in women undergoing controlled ovarian stimulation (COS) for in vitro fertilization (IVF). A m…
This work reports a simple yet unique way of tailoring the morphology of M-type Strontium Hexaferrite, SrFeO(SFO) particles inside the nanofibers. The reported materials were synthesized by the polymer-sol-assisted electrospinning technique followed…
BACKGROUND: Neonatal brain injury is a major global health challenge, disproportionately affecting low- and middle-income countries (LMIC), where access to specialized care remains limited. Technology-driven neuroprotective strategies may allow the d…
