A GLP-1 receptor agonist approved for type 2 diabetes and chronic weight management.
AIMS/HYPOTHESIS: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) complicates insulin dosing and increases glycaemic instability in diabetes. We aimed to compare feasibility, safety and efficacy of automated insulin delivery (AID) with usual care in people with diabetes…
OBJECTIVE: This study summarizes the evidence on the clinical effects of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) in adults with idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH). BACKGROUND: IIH is characterized by elevated intracranial pressu…
BACKGROUND: This study evaluated the efficacy and safety of generic semaglutide compared with innovator Semaglutide in Indian adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). METHODS: This Phase 3, multicenter, randomized, active-controlled, non-inferior…
Purpose The purpose of this study was to assess aspiration risk in patients undergoing elective eye surgery with moderate sedation as the anesthetic while taking the glucagon-like peptide type 1 receptor agonist (GLP-1RA) Ozempic formulation of semag…
BACKGROUND: Poor glycemic control in elderly diabetes patients leads to complications like nephropathy. Semaglutide (SEM), a GLP-1 receptor agonist, may improve both blood glucose (BG) control and renal function (RF). This study evaluates the effects…
Right ventricular (RV) dysfunction is a critical complication of pulmonary hypertension (PH) with limited treatment strategies. This study evaluated the therapeutic efficacy of the GLP-1 agonist semaglutide on RV dysfunction in rodent PH models, focu…
BACKGROUND: Obesity is a chronic metabolic disease associated with substantial cardiometabolic risk and long-term morbidity. Although randomized controlled trials have demonstrated the efficacy of incretin-based therapies, real-world comparative data…
Oral delivery of peptide therapeutics remains challenging due to gastrointestinal degradation, poor epithelial permeability, and extremely low bioavailability. To address these limitations, we developed an enteric solid formulation based on sorbic ac…
BACKGROUND: While the FLOW trial established the renoprotective effects of subcutaneous semaglutide, real-world evidence regarding the long-term renal effects of therapeutic switching from injectable glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RA…
BACKGROUND: Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1RA) use is associated with delayed gastric emptying. It is unknown whether GLP-1RAs affect esophageal motility. We aimed to assess the relationship between GLP-1RA use and esophageal function…
Semaglutide, a glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist, is widely prescribed for type 2 diabetes mellitus and chronic weight management. With its growing global use, continuous pharmacovigilance is essential to detect emerging patterns of ad…
BACKGROUND: A patient-reported outcome measure (PROM) is needed to study facial appearance in the context of rapid weight loss following use of anti-obesity medications. Such treatments can cause sunken cheeks, hollow eyes, saggy skin and an aged app…
OBJECTIVES: Youth with type 1 diabetes (T1D) and obesity face challenges in achieving optimal glycemic control and experience higher risk for long-term complications. While glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RA) have shown weight and gly…
OBJECTIVES: Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) and liver fibrosis are key drivers of morbidity and mortality in people with HIV (PWH). Limited evidence exists in PWH for managing MASLD and liver fibrosis with semaglutide…
Gastric inhibitory polypeptide (GIP)/Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists are increasingly prescribed for the management of obesity and type 2 diabetes, yet research pertinent to their effects on muscle health is limited. Considering the…
