This review addresses the role of semaglutide (SMG), a GLP-1 receptor agonist, in treatment obesity and its related comorbidities. Originally developed for type 2 diabetes (DM2), SMG has shown significant efficacy weight reduction, with superior results compared to other treatments same class. Its effects include appetite suppression, increased satiety, improvements cardiovascular, renal, metabolic parameters. Studies such as SUSTAIN, PIONEER, STEP highlight superiority agonists anti-obesity drugs. The oral formulation showed promising initial results, higher doses (50 mg) showing losses comparable those subcutaneous administration. Despite benefits, there are challenges, regain after cessation treatment, gastrointestinal adverse effects, variability response. Future studies should explore strategies mitigate these identify predictive factors efficacy, expand therapeutic indications conditions insulin resistance. constant innovation this class drugs reinforces potential transform protocols chronic weight-related diseases.

BackgroundHeart failure with preserved ejection fraction is increasing in prevalence and associated a high symptom burden functional impairment, especially persons obesity. No therapies have been approved to target obesity-related heart fraction.MethodsWe randomly assigned 529 patients who had body-mass index (the weight kilograms divided by the square of height meters) 30 or higher receive once-weekly semaglutide (2.4 mg) placebo for 52 weeks. The dual primary end points were change from baseline Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire clinical summary score (KCCQ-CSS; scores range 0 100, indicating fewer symptoms physical limitations) body weight.

A growing appreciation of the pathophysiological interrelatedness metabolic risk factors such as obesity and diabetes, chronic kidney disease, cardiovascular disease has led to conceptualization cardiovascular-kidney-metabolic syndrome. The confluence within syndrome is strongly linked for adverse outcomes. In addition, there are unique management considerations individuals with established coexisting factors, or both. An extensive body literature supports our scientific understanding of, approach to, prevention However, critical gaps in knowledge related terms mechanisms development, heterogeneity clinical phenotypes, interplay between social determinants health biological accurate assessments incidence context competing risks.

Glucagon like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists are well established drugs for the treatment of type 2 diabetes (T2D). In addition to glycemic control, GLP-1 have beneficial other effects. They act by binding receptors, which widely distributed in body, including cardiomyocytes and blood vessels. The aim this article is provide a comprehensive review impact on cardiovascular outcomes risk reduction. last decade, several trials (CVOT) been conducted order explore benefit agonists. CVOTs primarily proved safety tolerability different agonists, but also showed specific drugs. shown that reduce MACE patients with T2D compared placebo. addition, they positive factors such as obesity promoting weight loss, pressure lipid levels. Also, stimulate endothelium produce nitric oxide, oxidative stress, antiatherogenic antiinflammatory Studies their kidney results previous encouraging terms multiple effects However, further research needed understand full potential all details mechanism action, will enable expand therapeutic indications determine optimal use clinical practice.

Abstract In the last years, major progress has occurred in heart failure (HF) management. The 2023 ESC focused update of 2021 HF guidelines introduced new key recommendations based on results years science. First, two drugs, sodium–glucose co‐transporter‐2 (SGLT2) inhibitors and finerenone, a novel nonsteroidal, selective mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist (MRA), are recommended for prevention patients with diabetic chronic kidney disease (CKD). Second, SGLT2 now treatment across entire left ventricular ejection fraction spectrum. benefits quadruple therapy reduced (HFrEF) well established. Its rapid early up‐titration along close follow‐up frequent clinical laboratory re‐assessment after an episode acute (the so‐called ‘high‐intensity care’ strategy) was associated better outcomes STRONG‐HF trial. Patients experiencing worsening might require fifth drug, vericiguat. STEP‐HFpEF‐DM STEP‐HFpEF trials, semaglutide 2.4 mg once weekly administered 1 year decreased body weight significantly improved quality life 6 min walk distance obese preserved (HFpEF) or without history diabetes.
