INTRODUCTION: Patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) who require intensification of basal insulin therapy need treatment options that can improve their health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and translate into better outcomes. These analyses compared pa…
The dual activation of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor (GLP-1R) and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide receptor (GIPR) has emerged as a promising therapeutic strategy for managing type 2 diabetes and obesity. Tirzepatide, a dual agonist pe…
BACKGROUND: Tirzepatide was approved to treat type 2 diabetes and obesity, but its efficacy and safety in patients without diabetes has not been investigated. AIM: This meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of tirzepatide compared t…
This case series explores the association between tirzepatide-assisted weight loss and the development of foot drop due to peroneal nerve neuropathy, a phenomenon known as slimmer's paralysis. Two cases are presented of patients who experienced rapid…
BACKGROUND: Treating obesity may be a pathway to prevent and control hypertension. In the SURMOUNT-1 trial in people with obesity or overweight with weight-related complications, 72-week tirzepatide treatment led to clinically meaningful body weight…
The lack of an appropriate preclinical model of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) that recapitulates the whole disease spectrum impedes exploration of disease pathophysiology and the development of effective treatment s…
The Japan Diabetes Society (JDS) adopted a sweeping decision to release consensus statements on relevant issues in diabetes management that require updating from time to time and launched a "JDS Committee on Consensus Statement Development." In March…
AIM: Tirzepatide (Tzp), a novel dual agonist glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide/glucagon-like peptide-1, is approved for treating insulin resistance and obesity, and menopausal women consuming a high-calorie diet are a target to study the T…
Glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) are two incretins that bind to their respective receptors and activate the downstream signaling in various tissues and organs. Both GIP and GLP-1 play roles in reg…
IMPORTANCE: Despite its demonstrated benefits in improving cardiovascular risk profiles, the association of tirzepatide with mortality and cardiovascular and kidney outcomes compared with glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) remains…
PURPOSE: Randomized controlled trials with tirzepatide (TZP) displayed unprecedented glucose and body weight lowering efficacy in individuals with type 2 diabetes and/or obesity and a safety profile similar to that of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor…
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: As obesity and chronic kidney disease (CKD) remain a public health issue, we aim to elaborate on their complex relationship regarding pathogenetic mechanisms and therapeutic potential as well. The purpose of this review is to enhan…
INTRODUCTION: Tirzepatide is a novel once-week dual GIP/GLP-1 RA agonist approved for T2DM and its role to reduce cardiovascular events remains to be elucidated. The goal of this trial is to assess how tirzepatide affects the progression of atheroscl…
AIM: Normoglycaemia was achieved in a significant proportion of Japanese participants with type 2 diabetes in two phase 3 studies of tirzepatide. This post hoc exploratory analysis aimed to identify predictive factors associated with normoglycaemia a…
