Tirzepatide

Each year, over 1 million people in the United States die from diabetes and cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). These largely preventable chronic conditions also create a financial burden on patients, payers, and healthcare systems. The popularity of GLP…

Autoimmune thyroid disease (AITD), including Hashimoto thyroiditis and Graves' disease, represents the most prevalent organ-specific autoimmunity and a major cause of thyroid dysfunction worldwide. Increasingly, AITD coexists with metabolic disorders…

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…

Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is a prevalent disorder marked by recurrent upper airway obstruction during sleep, often linked to obesity and poor continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) adherence. Tirzepatide, a dual GIP and GLP-1 receptor agonis…

BACKGROUND: Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists, including tirzepatide, are increasingly prescribed for obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Amid safety concerns raised by regulatory agencies regarding potential associations with suici…

We appreciate the thoughtful commentary by Drs. Dziewierz and Siudak regarding our study comparing tirzepatide versus semaglutide in post-CABG diabetic patients. While we acknowledge the inherent limitations of observational research, our propensity…

OBJECTIVE: We assessed the impact of medical weight management (MWM; lifestyle modification ± obesity medications) on major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) compared to metabolic and bariatric surgery (MBS) and usual care (UC). METHODS: We retros…

We previously developed LJ-4378, a dual ligand for Aand Aadenosine receptors, as a potential anti-obesity agent. In this study, we compared the anti-obesity effects of LJ-4378 with those of tirzepatide (TZP), a dual agonist of glucagon-like peptide-1…

INTRODUCTION: Approximately 3-5% of patients with endometrial cancer (EC) are diagnosed under the age of 40 years, with 70% of these individuals being nulliparous. Consequently, fertility-sparing treatment for eligible young patients with endometrial…

BACKGROUND: Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common disorder with major cardiometabolic and neurocognitive sequelae. It affects up to 1 billion people globally and is frequently attributable to excess weight [1]. Tirzepatide is a once-weekly, dual…

: Obesity management is evolving with the integration of dual GIP/GLP-1 receptor agonists (Tirzepatide) into comprehensive Digital Weight-Loss Services (DWLSs). This model leverages virtual, app-based multidisciplinary care (MDT) to deliver continuou…

Tirzepatide is a long-acting agonist for the glucagon-like peptide-1 and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide receptors approved for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus, weight management in obese patients, or overweight patients with a…

: Patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) face elevated risk of hepatobiliary complications. The biliary safety of GLP-1 and dual GLP-1/GIP receptor agonists in this population is uncertain.: We conducted a…

Cystic fibrosis-related diabetes (CFRD) is the most common comorbidity in adults with cystic fibrosis (CF). Traditional management relied on insulin therapy to counter the rise in glucose related to a carbohydrate-rich diet, which was previously reco…

. Obesity as a chronic disease: the key role of new therapies. The global prevalence of overweight and obesity has risen dramatically, with obesity now recognized as a chronic, progressive, and multifactorial disease linked to major health complicati…

Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP1-RAs) have demonstrated significant cardiometabolic benefits, particularly in patients with type 2 diabetes and obesity. Their role in heart failure (HF) is gaining increasing attention, with growing evi…

OBJECTIVE: Limited data exist on telemedicine prescribing of semaglutide and tirzepatide. The effects of a telehealth obesity management program combining the provision of semaglutide and tirzepatide with a behavioral program tailored for long-acting…
