INTRODUCTION: To date, there have been few head-to-head comparisons between semaglutide once-weekly (OW) and short-acting meal-time insulin in participants with type 2 diabetes (T2D) treated with basal insulin and requiring treatment intensification.…
Under the guideline issued by Food and Drug Administration (FDA), ANDAs for Certain Highly Purified Synthetic Peptide Drug Products That Refer to Listed Drugs of rDNA Origin Guidance for Industry, a synthetic Semaglutide that is intended to be a "gen…
The prevalence of obesity is rising, creating an urgent need for efficacious therapies. Recent clinical trials show that tirzepatide, a dual agonist of receptors for the incretin hormones glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and glucose-dependent insulino…
BACKGROUND: Inflammation is a key driver of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. C-reactive protein (CRP), an established biomarker of inflammation, is commonly elevated in people with overweight/obesity. METHODS: STEP 1, 2, and 3 were 68-week, pl…
Several studies have found that antifibrosis treatment for nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) can cause a variety of side effects. No network meta-analysis (NMA) analyzes the adverse events of antifibrotic drugs for NAFLD. This NMA aimed to sys…
BACKGROUND: Fibrosis impacts long-term outcomes among patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Due to well-documented flaws associated with liver biopsy, there has been a recent emphasis on prioritizing noninvasive testing over liver b…
PURPOSE: SGLT2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) and GLP1 receptor agonists (GLP1-RA) protect the kidney in type 2 diabetes (T2DM) subjects. The role of patient's phenotype years before starting the treatment in determining the kidney response to these drugs has n…
Aging is a crucial risk factor for common neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease (AD) and Parkinson's disease (PD). Limited options are available for the treatment of age-related, multiple pathogenic mechanism-contributed diseases th…
OBJECTIVE: This paper describes the baseline characteristics of the Semaglutide Effects on Heart Disease and Stroke in Patients with Overweight or Obesity (SELECT) study, one of the largest cardiovascular (CV) outcome studies in the field of obesity,…
AIMS: Higher doses of the glucagon-like peptide-1 agonist semaglutide and, more recently, tirzepatide, a dual glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide and glucagon-like peptide-1 agonist showed a significant reduction in body weight in patients w…
AIM: To evaluate the effect of once-weekly subcutaneous semaglutide 1.0 mg on the late digestive period of gastric emptying (GE) after ingestion of a standardized solid test meal by using technetium scintigraphy, the reference method for this purpose…
AIM: To assess composite endpoints combining glycaemic control (HbA1c < 7.0%, ≤ 6.5% or < 5.7%) with weight loss (≥ 5%, ≥ 10% or ≥ 15%) and without hypoglycaemia with tirzepatide in type 2 diabetes (T2D). MATERIALS AND METHODS: Data from the phase 3…
What is this summary about? This is a plain language summary of the STEP TEENS research study, which was originally published in the. As more teenagers are living with obesity than ever before, researchers are searching for new treatments. This was t…
INTRODUCTION: SURE Netherlands (NCT03929679) evaluated the use of once-weekly (OW) semaglutide, a glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonist (GLP-1RA), in routine clinical care for individuals with type 2 diabetes (T2D). METHODS: Adults (age ≥ 18 years…
AIM: This work aims to assess the effect of weekly subcutaneous semaglutide on biomarkers of metabolic-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD), namely the hepatic steatosis index (HSI) and the fibrosis-4 (FIB-4) index, at 24 weeks in outpatients atten…
AIMS: The 2021 European Society of Cardiology (ESC) guidelines recommend that patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) with a very high cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk receive cardiovascular (CV)-protective glucose-lowering medication (glucagon-like pep…
