Lower‐Limb‐Predominant Axonal Sensorimotor Polyneuropathy With Severe Proximal Weakness and Possible Myopathic Involvement After Sleeve Gastrectomy: A Case Report of Delayed Recognition

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 11, November 2026.

Effect of GLP‐1 receptor agonist on nutrient intake: A narrative review

Nutrition in Clinical Practice, Volume 41, Issue 5, Page 1308-1317, October 2026.
Abstract Humans have a primitive defense mechanism called metabolic adaptation that slows voluntary weight loss. It works by downregulating hormones that reduce food intake and by lowering the metabolic rate. Second‐generation GLP‐1 receptor agonists, such as semaglutide or tirzepatide, promote weight loss by targeting this hormonal system to control ...
