PURPOSE: Novel therapies for diabetes have potent effects on glycemic control, obesity, and cardiovascular risk reduction, but some, including the popular drug semaglutide, have also been implicated in worsening of diabetic retinopathy (DR). Given th…
The introduction of the highly potent incretin receptor agonists semaglutide and tirzepatide has marked a new era in the treatment of type 2 diabetes and obesity. With normalisation of glycated haemoglobin levels and weight losses around 15-25%, ther…
IMPORTANCE: Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) have gained use primarily due to their weight-reduction effects, although a regulatory review was undertaken for potential suicidality concern. OBJECTIVES: To evaluate potential signal…
Nonarteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION) was first documented by a French physician Jean-Pierre Saint-Yves in 1817 (19th century). The clinical description of NAION was not known until 1935 when C. Miller Fischer thoroughly described i…
Hidradenitis suppurativa is a chronic inflammatory skin disease that usually presents in young adults with painful abscesses in intertriginous areas. We present a case of severe hidradenitis suppurativa (Hidradenitis Suppurativa Investigator Global A…
AIMS: To investigate the efficacy of the integrated data platform of cloud hospital combined with dietary management for adults with type 2 diabetes. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We conducted a randomized controlled clinical trial. One hundred eighty patie…
AIMS/INTRODUCTION: PIONEER REAL Japan was a non-interventional prospective study of oral semaglutide in adults with type 2 diabetes in Japanese clinical practice. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Adults naïve to injectable glucose-lowering therapies initiated…
INTRODUCTION: ASCEND PLUS is a randomised controlled trial assessing the effects of oral semaglutide on the primary prevention of cardiovascular events in around 20,000 individuals with type 2 diabetes in the UK. The trial's innovative design include…
INTRODUCTION: Semaglutide is a glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist that treats type 2 diabetes mellitus and can be used as an adjunct for weight loss when combined with exercise and diet. Here we report a case of a bilateral, incongruent central…
BACKGROUND: The efficacy of GLP1 receptor agonists (GLP1-RAs) in treating polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) remains unclear. While GLP1-RAs are known to promote weight loss in patients with diabetes and living with obesity, their impact on weight re…
BACKGROUND: Semaglutide, a GLP-1 receptor agonist, reduces the risk of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) in people with overweight or obesity, but the effects of this drug on outcomes in patients with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease a…
BACKGROUND: Our objective was to determine the number of major cardiovascular events (MACE, nonfatal myocardial infarction, nonfatal stroke, or cardiovascular death) and deaths from any cause that could be prevented across varying nationwide uptake o…
OBJECTIVE: Co-treatment with long acting PYY and the GLP-1 receptor agonists has potential as an efficient obesity treatment. This study investigates whether the mechanisms behind additive reduction of food intake and weight loss depends on complemen…
UNLABELLED: While there have been significant advances in the development of peptide oral dosage forms in recent years, highlighted by the clinical and commercial success of approved peptides such as Rybelsus®, there remain several barriers in the wa…
