BACKGROUND: Incretin-based therapies induce substantial weight loss and are widely prescribed; disproportionate losses in fat-free mass (FFM) and skeletal muscle are a concern. PURPOSE: To evaluate body composition changes associated with incretin th…
ObjectiveTo evaluate glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1 RA)-specific associations with hair loss, characterize reported alopecia subtypes and discuss potential underlying mechanisms.MethodsA systematic literature search was conducted acr…
OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the current evidence supporting the cerebrovascular protective effects of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) in individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), and to outline their mechanisms of action in s…
INTRODUCTION: Mitochondrial diabetes is rare and typically treated with dietary intervention and oral hypoglycaemic agents. Most require insulin. Novel treatments are available but are not well-characterised. PRESENTATION: A 16-year-old adolescent gi…
OBJECTIVE: We examined whether the addition of GLP-1RA to progestin therapy reduced the risk of hysterectomy in patients with endometrial intraepithelial neoplasia (EIN) and endometrial cancer (EC) in the U.S. managed with fertility-sparing managemen…
Inflammation serves as a basic defense mechanism against both internal and external threats, while the unresolved or excessive inflammation can lead to irreversible tissue damage. Glycyl-L-histidyl-L-lysine-Cu(GHK-Cu), a bioactive tripeptide complex…
OBJECTIVE: Functional co- and tri-agonists at the receptors for GLP-1, GIP and glucagon effectively decrease body weight and hyperglycemia but are associated with adverse gastrointestinal effects related to GLP-1R agonism. Here we report the discover…
ABSTRACT: Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors, glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists, and sodium–glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors are widely prescribed for their cardiometabolic benefits, yet their hematologic oncologic sa…
INTRODUCTION: This study aimed to assess the efficacy and hypoglycemia safety of tirzepatide as an add-on to basal insulin in people with inadequate glycemic control, across subgroups of baseline age, type 2 diabetes (T2D) duration, HbA1c, and basal…
BACKGROUND: Overweight and obesity are major contributors to cardiovascular-kidney-metabolic (CKM) disease. Tirzepatide (TZP-MJ), originally approved for type 2 diabetes (T2D), has demonstrated significant weight loss beyond glycemic improvement. Des…
PURPOSE: Metabolically-dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) is the progressive form of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) and is strongly linked to obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D). Tirzepatide, a dual…
INTRODUCTION: This real-world exploratory study in the United States (US) aimed to describe the socio-demographics, clinical characteristics, health-related quality of life (HRQoL), and work-related outcomes among people with obesity (PwO) undergoing…
Euglycemic ketoacidosis is metabolic acidosis with elevated ketone bodies despite normal or mildly elevated glucose levels and has rarely been reported in nonobese individuals without diabetes using tirzepatide. A 23-year-old Japanese woman without o…
