BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Semaglutide and tirzepatide have been shown to reduce body weight, improve health status, and lower rates of clinical events in patients with obesity and heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). Although recent dat…
A decline in mortality due to heart failure (HF) with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) has been attributed to effective guideline-directed medical therapies. But few effective therapies are available for HF with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF),…
Obesity is a complex, multifactorial disease. Rates of obesity are rising worldwide. Bariatric surgery is the most effective treatment for obesity, as it results in the greatest weight loss as well as significant improvement in or resolution of obesi…
BACKGROUND: Novel treatments are needed for the primary and secondary prevention of heart failure in patients with type 2 diabetes, including individuals with and those without a history of heart failure. Conflicting trial evidence exists on whether…
OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to evaluate whether reduced-frequency dosing of GLP1 receptor agonists maintains weight loss, body composition, and metabolic syndrome improvements following successful initial treatment with standard weekly therapy. METHO…
Obesity is an independent driver of cardiovascular disease (CVD), mediated through adverse haemodynamic loading, insulin resistance, systemic inflammation, endothelial dysfunction and prothrombotic pathways. Contemporary obesity therapies show cardio…
INTRODUCTION: Semaglutide, a GLP-1R agonist (GLP-1RA), has demonstrated high efficacy in the management of type 2 diabetes (T2D). Few data in literature are available regarding the use of this agent in patients affected by latent autoimmune diabetes…
BACKGROUND: In the FLOW trial (ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03819153), once-weekly subcutaneous semaglutide 1.0 mg versus placebo reduced the risk of major kidney, cardiovascular (CV), and mortality outcomes in participants with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and c…
Semaglutide, a long-acting glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1 RA), has shown robust efficacy in glycemic control, weight reduction, and cardiovascular protection, but concerns remain regarding rare adverse events such as acute pancreatit…
AIMS: To evaluate real-world clinical use of semaglutide in obese patients, focusing on titration, tolerability and short-term efficacy. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This retrospective study included obese patients treated with the weekly injectable semagl…
Incretin-based therapies, including glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs), dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors (DPP-4is), and the dual GIP/GLP-1 RA tirzepatide, are widely prescribed for type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Their musculoske…
The first therapeutically useful amylin receptor (AMYR) agonist, pramlintide was based upon the structure of non-aggregating rat amylin and found limited application as an adjunct to insulin therapy. It acts centrally to induce satiety, promote weigh…
We report a rare drugs adverse effect of a GLP1-RA, presenting as severe gastric stasis, eosinophilic duodenitis, and high bowel obstruction. The patient, treated with oral semaglutide for type 2 diabetes and obesity, developed progressive upper gast…
Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) affects 32 million people worldwide and is responsible for tens of billions of dollars in healthcare expenditure annually, with costs primarily driven by hospitalizations. HFpEF is notoriously di…
In the fall of 2024, a U.S. Senate Hearing on the high price of Novo Nordisk's prescription drugs Ozempic and Wegovy underlined some of the deepest challenges in the U.S. health care system. This article utilizes critical approaches to both political…
