Glucagon‐Like Peptide‐1 Receptor Agonist‐Based Agents and Body Composition: Filling More Gaps

Obesity, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The last 2 decades have seen historic advances in the treatment of obesity. We are entering an era of defining obesity not by weight‐based outcomes but by changes in body composition. Glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor agonists (GLP‐1 RAs) are forming the platform for obesity treatments based on their high level of efficacy. Body composition can

Musculoskeletal Outcomes of Glucagon‐Like Peptide‐1 Receptor Agonists Versus Other Antiobesity Agents in Nondiabetic Adults

Obesity, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective This study aimed to evaluate the association of glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor agonists (GLP‐1 RAs) with risks of osteoporosis, major osteoporotic fractures, and degenerative musculoskeletal disorders in nondiabetic adults with obesity compared with other obesity medications.

Weight Loss Improves Predicted 10‐Year MACE and Type 2 Diabetes Risk, but Benefits Partially Rebound at 1 Year

Obesity, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective This study aimed to quantify changes in predicted 10‐year risk for major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) and type 2 diabetes (T2D) across weight loss, post–weight loss (Post‐WL), and 1‐year follow‐up and to determine whether trajectories varied by exercise modality.

Evidence map and gap analysis of metabolic change in pediatric growth hormone deficiency treated with growth hormone

Pediatric Investigation, EarlyView.
This evidence map of 63 studies (n = 6158) showed growth hormone therapy in children with growth hormone deficiency has neutral glucose effects, mixed lipid outcomes, potential benefits for bone mineral density, bone mineral content, and parathyroid hormone, but generally no impact on thyroid function, body composition, or body mass index.

What Happens After Menopause (WHAM)? A Progress Report of a Prospective Controlled Study of Women After Pre‐Menopausal Risk‐Reducing Bilateral Salpingo‐Oophorectomy

BJOG: An International Journal of Obstetrics &Gynaecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Surgical menopause, the removal of both ovaries prior to natural menopause, may impact short‐and long‐term physical and emotional health. An increasingly common cause of surgical menopause is risk‐reducing salpingo‐oophorectomy (RRSO) in those at high inherited risk of ovarian cancer.
