Empagliflozin and oral semaglutide reduce the incidence of cardiovascular mortality (CVM) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. However, these therapies impose a significant financial burden on healthcare systems. Therefore, we compared the valu…
Coronary artery disease (CAD), which is the manifestation of atherosclerosis in coronary arteries, is the most common single cause of death and is responsible for disabilities of millions of people worldwide. Despite numerous dedicated clinical studi…
We evaluated time-course changes and the relationship between eating behavior and glycemic profile during the treatment of 34 obese type 2 diabetic patients with the glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP1-RA) semaglutide. Changes in dietary h…
BACKGROUND AND AIM: The importance of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) agonists is increasing because of its blood sugar controlling and weight loss properties. The data regarding safety of GLP-1 agonists are limited. This study aims to review case re…
Glucose homeostasis, regulated by glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP), glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and glucagon (GCG) is critical to human health. Several multi-targeting agonists at GIPR, GLP-1R or GCGR, developed to maximize meta…
Obesity is an important risk factor of type 2 diabetes (T2D), which has become an important factor threatening human health. However, no perfect drug choice for obesity exists. Semaglutide is a kind of human glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) analog tha…
GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) is one of the incretin hormone secreted from L cells in the small intestine and it is known to promote insulin secretion in a glucose concentration-dependent manner and have a hypoglycemic effect. However, since endoge…
INTRODUCTION: People with type 2 diabetes have increased risk of dementia. Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists (RAs) are among the promising therapies for repurposing as a treatment for Alzheimer's disease; a key unanswered question is…
INTRODUCTION: To complement results of the SUSTAIN program, this study assessed effectiveness and safety of once weekly subcutaneous semaglutide in people with type 2 diabetes (T2D) managed under routine care. METHODS: This was a multicenter, observa…
The combined use of gastrointestinal hormones for treating metabolic diseases is gaining increasing attention. It was documented previously that co-administration of a cholecystokinin receptor-1 receptor (CCK-1R) agonist with a glucagon-like peptide-…
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Oral semaglutide is the first glucagon-like petide-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1RA) approved for oral use in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). We aim to conduct a comprehensive review of literature to find out the eff…
The substantial financial burden associated with type 2 diabetes (T2D) over a lifetime cannot be neglected. Therefore, the objective of this study was to evaluate the pharmacoeconomic value of three once-weekly GLP-1 RAs, namely subcutaneous semaglut…
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to determine whether the hormone changes following weight loss are proportional to the degree of weight loss and to starting BMI. METHODS: A very low-energy diet was used to achieve 15% weight loss. Fasting and po…
INTRODUCTION: Type 2 diabetes (T2D) management has reached a point where not only optimal glycaemic control is necessary, but also additional interventions with proven cardiovascular risk reduction benefit. Subcutaneous semaglutide has been shown to…
OBJECTIVE: Semaglutide, a glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonist, reduced major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) in people with type 2 diabetes (T2D) at high risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in a post hoc analysis of pooled data from Trial…
PURPOSE: Greater medication adherence and persistence have been associated with improved glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. This study compared adherence, persistence, and treatment patterns among patients naïve to glucagon-l…
BACKGROUND: Non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is characterised by hepatic lipid accumulation, cell injury, inflammation and fibrosis. Insulin resistance, a hallmark of type 2 diabetes (T2D) and obesity, is a key pathogenic driver of NASH. Other th…
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effects of vitamin E, pioglitazone, sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors, and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists in patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). DESIGN: A network meta…
BACKGROUND: The number of obese people continues to increase worldwide, and obesity-related complications add to every country's health burden. Consequently, new weight-loss medications, such as glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs), a…
