Glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor agonists and muscle strength changes in older adults: Risks beyond muscle mass reductions

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Gastric inhibitory polypeptide (GIP)/Glucagon‐like peptide‐1 (GLP‐1) receptor agonists are increasingly prescribed for the management of obesity and type 2 diabetes, yet research pertinent to their effects on muscle health is limited. Considering the central role of muscle strength as a sarcopenia component, this article summarizes emerging ...

Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry body composition model: review of physical concepts.

, 1996
Although dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is widely used in clinical research as a means of quantifying body composition, there remains at present little published information that reviews the method's underlying physical ...

Obesity in Classic Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia: Mechanisms, Complications and Management

Clinical Endocrinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CCAH) is an autosomal recessive genetic disorder primarily caused by 21‐hydroxylase deficiency. Although the survival rate of patients has significantly improved with glucocorticoid replacement therapy, long‐term use of supraphysiological doses and multiple factors inherent to the disease itself have led

Peripheral dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry in the management of osteoporosis: the 2007 ISCD Official Positions

, 2007
Peripheral assessment of bone density using photon absorptiometry techniques has been available for over 40 yr. The initial use of radio-isotopes as the photon source has been replaced by the use of X-ray technology.

Does the Combination of Abdominal Obesity and Vitamin D Deficiency Increase the Risk of Death in Individuals Aged 50 or Older? Evidence From the ELSA Study

Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aims Despite the known association between abdominal obesity (AO) and vitamin D deficiency, it remains unclear whether this combination is associated with higher mortality risk. We investigated whether the coexistence of AO and vitamin D deficiency elevates the risk of death.

Maternal Hypoglycemia and Reduced Foetal Growth in Pregnancies Following Roux‐en‐Y Gastric Bypass: A Prospective Cohort Study

Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction The risk of delivering a small‐for‐gestational‐age (SGA) neonate is increased after Roux‐en‐Y gastric bypass (RYGB). Because glucose is the foetus's primary energy source and postprandial hypoglycemia is common after RYGB, the Bariatric surgery And consequences for Mother and Baby In pregnancy (BAMBI) study examined associations ...
