Objective To investigate the additive effects of semaglutide on liver function indicators in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) complicated by metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), who received sodium-glucose co…
A one-step mono-esterification method for long-chain dicarboxylic fatty acids [HOC(CH)COH;≥ 14] was developed using TFAA (trifluoroacetic anhydride) and LiCl as esterification reagents. This approach was particularly effective for synthesizing mono-b…
BACKGROUND: Recurrence of atrial arrhythmias remains a significant challenge following catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation. The potential role of semaglutide in reducing atrial arrhythmia recurrence postablation is unclear. METHODS: A consecuti…
OBJECTIVE: Investigate the impact and mechanism of semaglutide (Sema) combined with high-intensity interval training (HIIT) on hepatic glucose/lipid metabolism in db/db mice using untargeted metabolomics. METHODS: Db/db mice were divided into model c…
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Obesity is a leading risk factor for fatty liver disease and weight loss has been shown to improve liver parameters. This study evaluates the efficacy of oral semaglutide for weight loss in individuals with overweight or ob…
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…
Semaglutide (Ozempic®), administered as a weekly subcutaneous injection up to 1.0 mg, holds a privileged place in the international guidelines for the management of type 2 diabetes. Commercialized under the trade name Wegovy®, semaglutide is also ind…
Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) with fibrosis poses a significant clinical challenge, especially given its strong association with obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RA…
BACKGROUND: Prior studies showed worse outcomes in obese inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients, especially those related to hospitalizations, surgery, and steroid-free remission. Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP1-RAs) have demonstra…
ABSTRACT: Glucagon-Like- Peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist has an emerging role in obesity management. This meta-analysis and systematic review evaluated the effectiveness of GLP-1 receptor agonists in aiding weight loss and enhancing cardiometaboli…
BACKGROUND: This study evaluated the impact of semaglutide on postoperative complications following total knee arthroplasty by body mass index (BMI) class. METHODS: A retrospective analysis of a national claims database was performed for patients und…
AIMS: One of the recent growing complications of neoplastic chemotherapy that is considered a challenge in their therapeutic protocol is testicular dysfunction. The pathogenesis of testicular injury is multifactorial, involving various pathogenic mec…
Semaglutide, a glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist, has demonstrated efficacy for weight loss and glycemic control in patients with obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus, but data are limited for patients with end-stage kidney disease on dialysis…
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Obesity is present in up to 85% of individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and poses a major therapeutic challenge. Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs), initially developed for T2DM, are now widely used fo…
Heart failure (HF) and atherosclerosis represent two major cardiovascular diseases that are intricately linked, both contributing significantly to global morbidity, mortality, and healthcare burden. Despite substantial progress in diagnostic methods…
INTRODUCTION: Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) are widely prescribed for their efficacy in glycemic control and weight reduction, but patient response is heterogeneous and predictors of weight loss remain insufficiently defined. T…
