A GLP-1 receptor agonist approved for type 2 diabetes and chronic weight management.
INTRODUCTION: Over half of Americans and up to 78% of US Veteran population meet criteria for obesity. Perioperatively placed intragastric balloon (IGB) can accelerate weight loss goals for safe surgical candidacy, however weight regain is common aft…
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a chronic medical condition affecting millions of individuals worldwide. The burden of disease is significant, as demonstrated by high morbidity and mortality and billions of healthcare dollars spent. The pathophysi…
Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) have been developed to manage type 2 diabetes mellitus. Although, in the last 10 years, the use of GLP-1 RAs, especially semaglutide and liraglutide, has increased, its clinical implications and h…
Non alcoholic fatty disease (NAFLD) is the most common chronic liver disease that is managed in the liver departments. It seems that the prevalence of the disease is rising worldwide and as it has the same pathogenetic pathways with metabolic syndrom…
Both chronic kidney disease (CKD) and type 2 diabetes (T2D) are modern epidemics worldwide and have become a severe public health problem. Chronic kidney disease progression in T2D patients is linked to the need for dialysis or kidney transplantation…
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…
Although acute pancreatitis has been reported as an adverse event in patients treated with glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) analogues, to date we have not identified a case describing exocrine pancreatic insufficiency related to this drug. Here we pre…
Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) are employed extensively in the management of type 2 diabetes and obesity. However, there is a paucity of real-world data on their safety and tolerability for metabolic and nutritional adverse eve…
Hypoxic-ischaemic encephalopathy (HIE) arises from diminished blood flow and oxygen to the neonatal brain during labor, leading to infant mortality or severe brain damage, with a global incidence of 1.5 per 1000 live births. Glucagon-like Peptide 1 R…
BACKGROUND: Semaglutide, a GLP-1 receptor agonist, reduces the risk of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) in people with overweight or obesity, but the effects of this drug on outcomes in patients with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease a…
Companion animal obesity has emerged as a significant veterinary health concern globally, with escalating rates posing challenges for preventive and therapeutic interventions. Obesity not only leads to immediate health problems but also contributes t…
Glucagon-like-peptide-1 (GLP-1) agonists are an emerging class of medications used to manage type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and weight loss, with demonstrated efficacy in reducing hemoglobin A1c levels, body mass index, and adverse cardiovascular ev…
The combined use of gastrointestinal hormones for treating metabolic diseases is gaining increasing attention. The potential of developing novel dual agonists targeting both cholecystokinin 1 (CCK-1) receptor and glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) recep…
Diabetes mellitus represents a significant and growing global health challenge, with its prevalence steadily increasing. Insulin therapy remains a cornerstone of diabetes management. Since its discovery in 1921, insulin has undergone substantial adva…
IMPORTANCE: Obesity affects approximately 21% of US adolescents and is associated with insulin resistance, hypertension, dyslipidemia, sleep disorders, depression, and musculoskeletal problems. Obesity during adolescence has also been associated with…
Pathological cardiac hypertrophy is an important cause of heart failure(HF). Recent studies reveal that glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor (GLP1R) agonists can improve mortality and left ventricular ejection fraction in the patients with type 2 diabete…
AIM/INTRODUCTION: The recent adverse reactions associated with semaglutide have led the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to issue a "black box warning", and it is necessary to analyze all reports of adverse reactions to improve the safety of its cl…
The purpose of this study was to explore the effect of Semaglutide on intrauterine adhesions and discover new drugs for such adhesions. In this study, the cell model was simulated by TGF-β1-induced human endometrial epithelial cells, and the animal m…
