A GLP-1 receptor agonist approved for type 2 diabetes and chronic weight management.
BACKGROUND: The cardioprotective effects of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1RA)-based therapies in nondiabetic individuals with overweight or obesity remain underexplored. This meta-analysis evaluates their impact on cardiovascular eve…
The present systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of semaglutide and dulaglutide for glycemic control and weight loss in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). A thorough literature search was conducted using…
: Fatty liver disease and obesity are among the most prevalent health conditions in modern society and have recently garnered significant attention. Semaglutide, a well-known anti-obesity drug, has been widely used for diabetes and obesity treatment;…
Acute myocardial infarction, a leading cause of death globally, is often associated with cardiometabolic disorders such as atherosclerosis and metabolic syndrome. Metabolic treatment of these disorders can improve cardiac outcomes, as exemplified by…
Obesity is one of the greatest public health concerns in the United States and has reached an epidemic scope over the past few decades. Plastic surgery in patients with obesity has been linked to higher complication rates both before and after weight…
Obesity is the most prevalent condition in high-income nations, primarily associated with increased risk of diabetes, cardiovascular disease (CVD), hypertension, and hyperlipidemia. Lifestyle modifications are a key determinant in non-pharmacological…
The prevalent assumption in computer-assisted synthesis planning has been to rely on the wealth of reaction data and on the consideration of this vast knowledge base at every stage of route planning. Yet even if equipped with all requisite knowledge…
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is both a metabolic and chronic inflammatory disease, wherein immune dysregulation contributes to multisystem complications. Beyond glycemic control, anti-diabetic agents-Metformin (Met), sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibito…
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this research is to evaluate the clinical and economic benefits of semaglutide in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in real-world setting in tertiary hospital in Saudi Arabia. METHODS: In this single-center retrospec…
Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) play a role in management of type 2 diabetes (T2D) and obesity by promoting glycemic control and weight reduction. Beyond these benefits, GLP-1 RAs have demonstrated positive effects on cardiovasc…
INTRODUCTION: Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a complex chronic metabolic disease characterized by insulin resistance, dyslipidemia, inflammation, and visceral fat accumulation, leading to complications, such as cardiovascular disease and kidney damage. Eme…
Obesity pharmacotherapy represents a promising approach to treating obesity and may provide benefits beyond weight loss alone. Maintaining or even increasing muscle mass during weight loss is important to overall health, metabolic function and weight…
INTRODCUTION: Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) are among the most effective treatments for type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). GLP-1 RAs stimulate pancreatic receptors, improving glycemia by boosting insulin secretion while decreasi…
