OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to evaluate insulin dose requirements after the addition of the dual glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide/glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist tirzepatide compared with the GLP-1 receptor a…
BACKGROUND: Consistent with WHO recommendations, obesity is defined as BMI ≥25 kg/min many Asian populations because of increased health risks at lower BMIs than in other populations. We aimed to investigate the efficacy and safety of once-weekly sub…
BACKGROUND: The American Diabetes Association recommends the use of glucagon-like-peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP1-RAs) (e.g., Ozempic) for patients with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, including peripheral artery disease. We hypothesized in…
AIM: Oral peptide therapeutics typically have short half-lives due to rapid degradation by digestive enzymes. Systematic peptide engineering and formulation optimization led to the development of a clinical candidate MEDI7219, an orally bioavailable…
Background Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor (GLP-1R) and glucagon receptor (GCGR) dual agonist, along with GLP-1R monoagonist, show promise in treating metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD). Liver fat and iron content are i…
OBJECTIVE: Obesity affects more than 40% of US adults, increasing risks for cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes. Glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs), initially indicated for diabetes, show promise in weight loss but face cove…
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…
BACKGROUND: As the prevalence of obesity rises among patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), concerns have emerged regarding the gastrointestinal safety of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs), which are increasingly used for…
PURPOSE: Hypothalamic obesity is a severe complication of craniopharyngioma, marked by hyperphagia and rapid weight gain. Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists such as semaglutide have shown promising effects on weight reduction, but long-term da…
In the last decade, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration has approved 6 drugs to reduce morbidity or mortality and improve functional capacity in patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) and 3 drugs to reduce morbidity or m…
BACKGROUND: Many patients seek body contouring surgery (BCS) to address excess skin following significant weight loss (WL), including from GLP-1 receptor agonists such as semaglutide. Optimal BCS timing is crucial, as postoperative weight fluctuation…
BACKGROUND: Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory skin disease driven by immune dysregulation and often exacerbated by metabolic comorbidities. Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs), initially developed for type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM…
