Obesity is an important independent cardiovascular (CV) risk factor and a chronic inflammatory disease related to the development of insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes, dyslipidaemia, coronary artery disease, hypertension, heart failure, atrial fibr…
Based on the 4D label-free phosphoproteomic technique, we examined the differences in cognitive function and hippocampal phosphorylated protein expression in high-fat diet-induced obese mice after the intervention of semaglutide and empagliflozin, as…
OBJECTIVES: The study aimed to evaluate dual liquid chromatography (LC) coupled to high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS) for the simultaneous analysis of small and large molecule drugs by development and application of a validated bioanalytical me…
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Obesity is a global health problem with few pharmacologic options. Semaglutide is a glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) analogue that induces weight loss. Yet, the role of semaglutide in adipose tissue has not yet been examined…
Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists are a class of antidiabetic agents that work by inducing insulin secretion and inhibiting release of glucagon in a glucose-dependent manner. They are especially promising given their long duration of…
The study aimed to perform a systematic review and meta-analysis of the evidence for the prevention of future cancers following bariatric surgery. A systematic literature search of the Cochrane Library, Embase, Scopus, Web of Science and PubMed datab…
The cardiotoxic effect of chemotherapeutic agents as cisplatin has become a major issue recently. Interference with mitochondrial dynamics, biogenesis, redox status, and apoptosis are the most possible underlying mechanisms. Semaglutide is a human gl…
AIM: To assess health utility values in the Semaglutide Treatment Effect in People with obesity (STEP) 1-4 trials. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The STEP 1-4 phase 3a, 68-week, double-blind randomized controlled trials assessed the efficacy and safety of se…
Obesity is a chronic, progressive and relapsing disease with a rising global prevalence associated with increased morbidity and mortality and reduced quality of life. Treatment of obesity requires a comprehensive medical approach that includes behavi…
Successful development of treatments for non-alcoholic fatty liver disease and its progressive form, non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), has been challenging. Because NASH and fibrosis lead to progression towards cirrhosis and clinical outcomes, ap…
AIMS: Semaglutide and empagliflozin have shown cardiovascular protection. In SUSTAIN-6, semaglutide was associated with an increased risk of diabetic retinopathy. We investigated whether changes in retinal oxygenation, retinal vascular autoregulation…
The low-grade inflammatory state in obesity can damage vascular endothelial cells and lead to several cardiovascular diseases. Macrophage exosomes improve glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity in obese mice, and yet it is unclear how it relates t…
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: To determine the cost-effectiveness of anti-obesity medications (AOM): tirzepatide, semaglutide, liraglutide, phentermine plus topiramate (PpT), and naltrexone plus bupropion (NpB). METHODS AND RESULTS: From a U.S. perspective we…
PURPOSE: To report historical patterns of pharmaceutical expenditures, to identify factors that may influence future spending, and to predict growth in drug spending in 2023 in the United States, with a focus on the nonfederal hospital and clinic sec…
By binding to its receptor, glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) plays various physiological roles, including activating glucose-dependent insulin secretion, inhibiting gastric emptying, and reducing appetite. This suite of activities makes GLP-1 and its…
AIMS: Glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RA) improve glycemic control and promote weight loss in type 2 diabetes (DM2) and obesity. We identified studies describing the metabolic benefits of GLP-1RA in end-staged kidney disease (ESKD) an…
