Tirzepatide

AIMS: This post hoc analysis assessed the efficacy and safety data in tirzepatide-treated Korean patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D). MATERIALS AND METHODS: Data specifically from Korean patients treated with tirzepatide 5, 10, or 15 mg in the multic…

: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a complex metabolic disorder characterized by insulin resistance, impaired insulin secretion, and chronic hyperglycemia. Recent studies have identified microRNAs (miRNAs), a class of small non-coding RNAs that reg…

BACKGROUND: Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) agonists are commonly prescribed for type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Concerns have emerged regarding their potential link to diabetic retinopathy (DR). METHODS: To evaluate the association between GLP-1 ag…

AIMS: To characterize trends in the initiation of newer anti-obesity medications (AOMs) and determine factors associated with their use among obese/overweight populations. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This study utilized electronic health record data from…

BACKGROUND: Tirzepatide (TZP), a dual agonist of glucose-dependent insulinotropic peptide (GIP) and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptors, has recently been introduced in Italy for the treatment of obesity. Obesity is frequently associated with m…

INTRODUCTION: Individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI) experience alterations in metabolism that result in increased central obesity, insulin resistance, and dyslipidemia placing them at elevated risk for developing cardiometabolic disease (CMD). In…

BACKGROUND: Tirzepatide is a novel dual gastric inhibitory polypeptide (GIP) and glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1 RA) for type 2 diabetes or obesity. To explore the safety profile of tirzepatide in real-world clinical applications. RES…

BACKGROUND: Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is a prevalent chronic condition that is associated with cardiometabolic and neurocognitive complications. While continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) remains the first-line therapy, suboptimal adherenc…

INTRODUCTION: To evaluate real-world hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) and weight change in adults initiating treatment with tirzepatide (dual glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide and glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist [GLP-1 RA]) or injectable se…

UNLABELLED: Sarcopenic obesity, a subtype of obesity, is marked by reduced skeletal muscle mass and function, or sarcopenia, and poses a significant health challenge to older adults as it affects an estimated 28.3% of people aged >60 years. This subt…

PURPOSE: Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) are important therapeutic options for type 2 diabetes and obesity; however, concerns about ophthalmic safety persist. This study examined associations between GLP-1 RAs and ocular adverse…

BACKGROUND: Tirzepatide (TZP) has demonstrated efficacy for glycemic control and weight loss in subjects with type 2 diabetes (T2D). However, previous clinical trials were not conducted under the treatment of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists…

Glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1)-based therapies, such as semaglutide and tirzepatide, represent highly effective treatment options for people with type 2 diabetes and obesity, enabling effective control of glucose and weight loss, while reducing card…

AIMS: We investigated changes in eating behavior associated with the administration of tirzepatide and evaluated any changes in diet-related QOL due to tirzepatide. METHODS: The study included 60 outpatients with type 2 diabetes mellitus who had been…

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: The increasing prevalence of obesity among individuals with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) presents a significant clinical challenge, as it exacerbates insulin resistance, impairs glycemic control, and increases cardiometabolic ri…

BACKGROUND: Data on tirzepatide in Asian patients with obesity are limited. This study aimed to gain a better understanding of tirzepatide for treatment of Japanese patients with obesity disease (BMI ≥25 kg/mwith excessive fat accumulation) as define…
