Obesity and diabetes are common among patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty (THA) and are associated with adverse outcomes. Glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) were originally developed for glycaemic control but have recently b…
BACKGROUND: In the phase 3 ESSENCE clinical trial, semaglutide demonstrated improved histological outcomes for patients with metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) with moderate or advanced fibrosis. There is limited real-world evide…
BACKGROUND: Antipsychotic-induced weight gain is a common side effect of antipsychotic drug treatment, particularly with second-generation medications such as clozapine and olanzapine. Weight gain in patients undergoing antipsychotic therapies is a s…
BACKGROUND: Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 agonist) have revolutionized the treatment of obesity. However, regulatory agencies have reported an association with suicidality. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first meta-analy…
The role of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) as a standard treatment for slowly progressive type 1 diabetes mellitus (SPIDDM), a condition akin to latent autoimmune diabetes in adults (LADA) or latent autoimmune diabetes in the yo…
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) markedly increases the risk of cardiovascular and renal complications, emphasizing the need for therapies that extend benefits beyond glycemic control. Injectable glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) h…
Subcutaneous glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) have been shown to reduce risk of major adverse cardiac events (MACE) for patients with type 2 diabetes (T2DM) who have or are at high risk of cardiovascular disease, but the evaluati…
OBJECTIVES: To identify novel targets to treat obesity, we focused on the equilibrative nucleoside transporter 1 (ENT1), which is a key regulator of extracellular adenosine levels in adipose tissue. Adenosine has been shown to control multiple aspect…
Ozempic (semaglutide) was first authorized to treat type 2 diabetes, but because of its appetite-suppressing properties, it has become popular off-label for weight loss. According to clinical investigations, GLP-1 significantly decreases blood sugar…
CONTEXT: Semaglutide, a glucagon-like protein-1 receptor agonist used in diabetes and obesity management, has demonstrated perioperative benefits in other surgical populations. However, its role in spine surgery remains unclear. AIMS: This study aims…
RECOMMENDATIONS 1. Pharmacotherapy for obesity management can be used for individuals with a BMI ≥30 kg/m2, or ≥27 kg/m2 with adiposity-related complications, in conjunction with medical nutrition therapy, physical activity and psychological interven…
Rhabdomyolysis is a clinical syndrome characterized by the breakdown of skeletal muscle, leading to the release of creatine kinase (CK), myoglobin and electrolytes into the circulation. This can result in acute kidney injury and other complications.…
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…
We aimed to determine the effect of semaglutide on patients with acute large vessel occlusion (LVO) receiving endovascular therapy (EVT). In this phase 2, investigator-initiated, multicenter, prospective, randomized, open-label, blinded endpoint tria…
The purpose of this exploratoryanalysis was to study the impact of semaglutide on measures of bone health in older adults. Data were collected from a 20-week pilot trial (NCT05786521), which randomized 20 older adults (72.7 ± 4.8 years of age, 50% wo…
Recent evidence suggests that Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) can assist in alcohol and related substance use disorders (ASUD). GLP-1RAs act on the same receptor targets as native GLP-1, but last from several hours to a week, com…
