Obesity, heart failure with preserved ejection fraction, and the role of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists
Source : https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38093506/
Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) has a high prevalence, affecting more than 50% of patients with heart failure. HFpEF is associated with multiple comorbidities, and obesity is one...
GLP-1 receptor agonists show promise for treating obese patients with HFpEF by promoting weight loss and improving metabolic function, but efficacy and safety must be confirmed through clinical trials.

Weight-centric prevention of cancer
Source : https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38495815/
Medical nutrition therapy, exercise, antiobesity medication, and bariatric interventions, might lead to a reduction in cancer risk through weight loss-dependent and independent factors. Further evidence is needed to better determine...
Medical nutrition therapy, exercise, antiobesity medication, and bariatric interventions, might lead to a reduction in cancer risk through weight loss-dependent and independent factors. Further evidence is needed to better determine which population might benefit the most, and the amount of weight loss required to provide a clinically...
