RÉSUMÉ
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Video capsule endoscopy (VCE) is valuable for assessing conditions like gastrointestinal bleeding, anemia, and inflammatory bowel disease. Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RA) are prescribed for diabetes and weight loss, with their pharmacologic effects including delaying gastric emptying. This study investigates the impact of GLP-1 RA usage on VCE outcomes in patients with diabetes. METHODS: This retrospective cohort study involves patients with diabetes undergoing VCE while on GLP-1 RA, matched 1:1 ratio with controls based on demographics and diabetes related factors, who are not on GLP-RA. The primary outcome is gastric transit time in VCE studies, with secondary outcome being incomplete small bowel evaluation and the small bowel transit time. RESULTS: In the 68 GLP-1 RA patient cohort, five (7%) experienced VCE failure to pass through the stomach, while all controls passed successfully (p=0.06). GLP-1 RA patients had longer gastric transit time (99.3 ± 134.2 minutes) compared to controls (25.3 ± 31.6 minutes, p <0.001). Multivariate analysis revealed GLP-1 RA usage was associated with increased gastric transit time by 74.5 minutes (CI: 33.8-115.2, p <0.001) compared to controls, after adjusting on relevant factors. Sixteen GLP-1 RA patients (23.5%) experienced incomplete passage of the VCE through the small intestine, a significantly higher rate compared to three patients in the control group (4.4%) (p<0.01). CONCLUSIONS: GLP-1 RA usage is associated with prolonged gastric transit time and a higher rate of incomplete small bowel evaluation during VCE. Future studies may be crucial for evaluating strategies to mitigate these effects.
RÉSUMÉ
Diabetes mellitus and obesity are growing health concerns. New pharmacologic interventions have recently begun to play a more notable role in the treatment pathway of these separate but related conditions. In particular, glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists, such as semaglutides (Ozempic, Wegovy) and tirzepatide (Mounjaro), and sodium glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors, such as dapagliflozin (Farxiga) and empagliflozin (Jardiance), have emerged as treatment options. Multiple clinical trials have demonstrated their efficacy in regulating metabolism, improving glycemic control, and managing long-term weight reduction. However, glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists have also been associated with gastrointestinal side effects, including delayed gastric emptying as well as regurgitation and aspiration during general anesthesia or deep sedation, and sodium glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors have been associated with severe diabetic ketoacidosis. Therefore, discontinuation of these medications before surgery is imperative. Given the popularity of these medications among the general public, it is essential for hand surgeons, to understand how to appropriately manage them perioperatively. The objective of this article was to review these new diabetes mellitus and weight loss medications, including their mechanisms of action, indications for use, and perioperative management guidelines. Additionally, we will take this opportunity to review perioperative guidelines for other common medications relevant to patients undergoing procedures involving the hand and upper extremity such as antithrombotic medications and rheumatoid arthritis-related immunosuppressive medications. Finally, we will describe how the electronic medical record system can be used to optimize perioperative medication management in this population.
RÉSUMÉ
The use of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RA) has experienced rapid growth amidst the obesity epidemic in the United States. While originally developed for glucose control in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, the scope of these agents now extends to encompass weight loss and cardiovascular risk reduction. GLP-1RAs have the potential to induce significant weight loss, in combination with lifestyle modifications, among adults who are overweight or obese. Furthermore, these agents demonstrate efficacy in ameliorating hyperglycemia, enhancing insulin sensitivity, regulating blood pressure, improving cardiometabolic parameters, mitigating kidney dysfunction, and potentially reducing the risk of several obesity-related cancers. Drug-related toxicity is primarily gastrointestinal and active management can prevent drug discontinuation. Obesity is associated both with an increased incidence of malignancy but also with decreased survival. More research is needed to evaluate the potential use of GLP-1RA to modify the endocrine function of adipocytes, regulate the chronic inflammatory state associated with obesity, and prospective applications in oncology. These agents can impact patients with gynecologic malignancies both through their direct mechanism of action as well as potential drug toxicity.

Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DbCM) is a common complication in individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), and its exact pathogenesis is still debated. It was hypothesized that chronic hyperglycemia and insulin resistance activate critical cellular pathways that are responsible for numerous functional and anatomical perturbations in the heart. Interstitial inflammation, oxidative stress, myocardial apoptosis, mitochondria dysfunction, defective cardiac metabolism, cardiac remodeling, hypertrophy and fibrosis with consequent impaired contractility are the most common mechanisms implicated. Epigenetic changes also have an emerging role in the regulation of these crucial pathways. The aim of this review was to highlight the increasing knowledge on the molecular mechanisms of DbCM and the new therapies targeting specific pathways.

Objective: The potential association between diabetic retinopathy (DR) worsening and glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RA) has affected therapeutic management of diabetic patients but remains controversial. This study compared rates of DR development or progression in patients on GLP-1RA to those on SGLT-2 inhibitors (SGLT-2I). Design: Retrospective cohort study. Subjects: Nine hundred eighty-one patients with diabetes mellitus taking GLP-1RA or SGLT-2I, the latter serving as controls, between 2012 and 2023. Methods: Patients were one-to-one greedy matched by propensity scores on race/ethnicity, age, smoking status, baseline body mass index and hemoglobin A1c %, type of diabetes mellitus, baseline DR status and history of DR procedures, duration of drug use, whether they had taken both drug types, and change in hemoglobin A1c % after 1 year on the drug. Main Outcome Measures: The primary outcome was clinical DR development or progression (termed "worsening") detected by International Classification of Diseases (ICD), 10th edition codes, confirmed by manual review, on GLP-1RA compared with SGLT-2I after propensity score matching. Secondary outcomes included DR worsening indicated by need for procedures due to complications, and time-to-first DR worsening event. Results: The study included 692 GLP-1RA users and 289 SGLT-2I users. The mean follow-up periods for GLP-1RA versus SGLT-2I use were 1.54 (standard deviation [SD] 1.82) years and 1.38 (SD 1.56) years, respectively. The rates of clinical worsening were 2.3% and 2.8%, respectively. After propensity score matching, an association was not identified between GLP1-RA and DR worsening neither clinically by ICD-10 codes (odds ratio [OR] = 0.33, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.11-1.03) nor by indication for procedures (OR = 0.50, 95% CI 0.13-2.00). Time-to-first DR worsening did not differ between the groups in Kaplan-Meier analysis. The most common type of clinical worsening event for both drug types was vitreous hemorrhage (43.7% and 50% of worsening events in GLP-1RA and SGLT-2I users, respectively). The most common DR procedure indicated was anti-VEGF injections (34% and 35% of GLP-1RA and SGLT-2I events, respectively). Conclusions: Diabetic retinopathy worsening, either clinically or by procedures, was not associated with GLP-1RA compared with SGLT-2I, both before and after propensity score matching on all analyses, including time-to-first worsening event.

RÉSUMÉ
Peptide glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) are effective drugs for treating type 2 diabetes (T2DM) and have been proven to benefit the heart and kidney. Apart from oral semaglutide, which does not require injection, other peptide GLP-1RAs need to be subcutaneously administered. However, oral semaglutide also faces significant challenges, such as low bioavailability and frequent gastrointestinal discomfort. Thus, it is imperative that advanced oral strategies for peptide GLP-1RAs need to be explored. This review mainly compares the current advantages and disadvantages of various oral delivery strategies for peptide GLP-1RAs in the developmental stage and discusses the latest research progress of peptide GLP-1RAs, providing a useful guide for the development of new oral peptide GLP-1RA drugs.
RÉSUMÉ
INTRODUCTION: Despite the technological advancements in catheter ablation strategies, the recurrence of atrial fibrillation (AF) post-ablation remains a concern that requires further investigation. Glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists have shown a significant effect on weight reduction, which in turn is associated with freedom from AF recurrence in both patients who are obese and not obese undergoing ablation. Therefore, we aimed to summarize the available evidence on the efficacy of GLP-1 receptor agonists in maintaining sinus rhythm post-ablation. METHODS: Medline, Cochrane Library, and Scopus were searched until June 9, 2024. Double-independent study selection, data extraction, and quality assessment were performed. Evidence was pooled using DerSimonian-Laird random effects meta-analysis. RESULTS: Three propensity score-matched studies (n = 6031 participants) were analyzed. Over a 12-months follow-up, the use of GLP-1 receptor agonists was associated with a significant reduction in AF recurrence compared to controls, hazard ratio (HR) = 0.549, 95% confidence interval (CI) = [0.315, 0.956], P = 0.034; I2 = 57%. No significant heterogeneity was observed (Q statistic = 4.6, heterogeneity P = 0.1). CONCLUSION: The use of GLP-1 receptor agonists is associated with a lower risk of AF recurrence in patients receiving AF ablation therapy. Further large-scale randomized trials are necessary to explore the efficacy of GLP-1 receptor agonists in maintaining ablation outcomes over the long term.

PURPOSE: To compare effects of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists and metformin on the risk of primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG), ocular hypertension, and the need for first-line glaucoma treatments in patients with type 2 diabetes. DESIGN: A retrospective cohort study was conducted using electronic medical records (EMR) data from the from an international electronic health record network, covering a period from May 2006 to May 2024. PARTICIPANTS: Patients diagnosed with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) who were treated with either GLP-1 receptor agonists or metformin. METHODS: Data from 120 healthcare organizations across 17 countries were analyzed. Patient outcomes were assessed at 1, 2, and 3 years. Propensity score matching (PSM) was used to balance covariates such as demographics, comorbidities, and medication usage. Risk ratios (RR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI) were calculated. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Incidence of POAG, ocular hypertension, and the need for first-line treatments including beta-blockers, prostaglandin analogues, brimonidine, brinzolamide, dorzolamide, netarsudil, and laser trabeculoplasty. RESULTS: After PSM, both groups included 61,998 patients at the 1-year follow-up, 27,414 at the 2-year follow-up, and 14,100 at the 3-year follow-up. Patients treated with GLP-1 receptor agonists had a significantly decreased risk of developing POAG compared to those on metformin at 1 year (RR 0.59, 95% CI 0.39-0.88), 2 years (RR 0.50, 95% CI 0.32-0.78), and 3 years (RR 0.59, 95% CI 0.37-0.94). Similar protective effects were observed for ocular hypertension with risk reductions of 56% at 1 year (RR 0.44, 95% CI 0.31-0.62), 57% at 2 years (RR 0.43, 95% CI 0.30-0.62), and 49% at 3 years (RR 0.51, 95% CI 0.34-0.75). The risk of first-line therapy initiation was also lower in the GLP-1 receptor agonists group at 1 year (RR 0.63, 95% CI 0.53-0.74), 2 years (RR 0.71, 95% CI 0.59-0.85), and 3 years (RR 0.75, 95% CI 0.62-0.91). CONCLUSIONS: GLP-1 receptor agonists are associated with a significantly lower incidence of POAG, ocular hypertension, and the need for first-line glaucoma treatments compared to metformin in patients with type 2 diabetes. These findings highlight the potential ocular benefits of GLP-1 receptor agonists and their expanding role in the clinical management of diabetic patients.
RÉSUMÉ
Background: Doxorubicin (DOX) is used to treat various types of cancers. However, its use is restricted by cardiotoxicity, a leading cause of morbidity and mortality. Glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) may be associated with cardioprotective properties. Purpose: This study aims to determine the protective effects of different semaglutide (SEM) doses on DOX-induced cardiotoxicity in a rat model. Methodology: Thirty-five female Wistar rats were divided into five groups. The first group received distilled water as a negative control (NC); the positive control (PC) group received distilled water plus DOX; the third group (SL) received a low dose of SEM (0.06 mg/kg) plus DOX; the fourth group (SM) received a moderate dose of SEM (0.12 mg/kg) plus DOX; and the fifth group (SH) received a high dose of SEM (0.24 mg/kg) plus DOX. Blood samples were collected on day 8 to assess serum troponin, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), creatine phosphokinase (CPK), total lipid profile, and vascular cell adhesion molecule 1 (VCAM-1). Cardiac tissue was sent for histopathological analysis. Results: DOX increased the total cholesterol (TC), low-density lipoprotein (LDL), triglyceride (TG), LDH, and CKP levels. Moderate and high doses of semaglutide significantly reduced serum cholesterol levels (*p = 0.0199), (**p = 0.0077), respectively. A significant reduction (***p = 0.0013) in total body weight after treatment with SEM was observed in the SL group and a highly significant reduction (****p < 0.0001) was observed in the SM and SH groups. SEM at all doses reduced CPK levels. The SL group showed a significant reduction in troponin level (*p=0.0344). Serum LDH levels were reduced by all three SEM doses. The histopathological findings support the biochemical results. Conclusion: Semaglutide may possess cardioprotective properties against DOX-induced cardiotoxicity in a rat model by decreasing serum biochemical markers of cardiotoxicity.
RÉSUMÉ
Pregnancy during or soon after treatment with weight loss medication, particularly glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs), is contraindicated due to potential teratogenicity. The aim of this scoping review is to investigate what is known about the use of weight loss medication in women of childbearing age in relation to reproductive health outcomes, focusing on the three medications licenced in the United Kingdom at the time of the search. A systematic search of studies that assessed reproductive health outcomes in women taking either orlistat, liraglutide or semaglutide was undertaken in July 2023 and updated in January 2024 across MEDLINE, Embase, CINAHL, Scopus, ClinicalTrials.gov, PROSPERO, Epistemonikos and OpenGrey. Studies focused on polycystic ovarian syndrome, diabetes or animals were excluded. Titles and abstracts were screened, and data from included articles were extracted. After removal of duplicates, 341 titles remained, of which 318 were excluded. Of the final 18 articles included, there were five interventional trials, one retrospective case-control study, six narrative reviews, two systematic reviews, three systematic review protocols and one registry protocol yet to start recruitment. All five interventional trials involved orlistat given preconceptionally, showing no improvement in live birth rate, despite improvement in reproductive hormone levels. There were no studies with primary data about GLP-1 RAs. There were no qualitative studies. There is an absence of primary data about the role of GLP-1 RAs on the reproductive health of women of childbearing age without polycystic ovarian syndrome. Future research should explore short- and long-term effects on reproductive health, pregnancy outcomes and experiences.
RÉSUMÉ
Semaglutide is a glucagon-l ike peptide 1 receptor agonist that has been noted to have a significant role in the reduction of body weight and glycaemic control. An increasing body of evidence from recent trials (SUSTAIN-6, SELECT and STEP HF) has shown significant cardiovascular benefits of semaglutide in both patients with and without diabetes and in people who are obese or overweight. Additional studies in a more diverse patient population and safety assessment are warranted prior to adding semaglutide to the increasing pool of guideline-directed medical therapy for the treatment and prevention of cardiac diseases.

Aims: Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) are employed extensively in the management of type 2 diabetes and obesity. However, there is a paucity of real-world data on their safety and tolerability for metabolic and nutritional adverse events in large sample populations. This study aimed to analyse the metabolic and nutritional safety signatures of different GLP-1 RAs by exploring the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS). Methods: AEs data were extracted from the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System database for each GLP-1 RA from the time of its launch until the second quarter of 2023. The reported odds ratio (ROR), proportional reporting ratio (PRR), Empirical Bayesian Geometric Mean and Bayesian Confidence Propagation Neural Network were employed to identify AE signals. Results: A system organ class of metabolism and nutrition disorders was employed to filter AE reports, resulting in the identification of 10,450 reports for exenatide, 2,860 reports for liraglutide, 240 reports for albiglutide, 4,847 reports for dulaglutide, 2,905 reports for semaglutide, 1,089 reports for tirzepatide, and 13 reports for lixisenatide. Semaglutide (ROR, 3.34; 95%CI, 3.22), liraglutide (ROR, 2.78; 95%CI, 2.69), and exenatide (ROR, 2.15; 95%CI, 2.11) were associated with metabolism and nutrition disorders. The number of AE signals detected were as follows: albiglutide (n = 1), lixisenatide (n = 2), tirzepatide (n = 11), exenatide (n = 12), liraglutide (n = 16), semaglutide (n = 20), dulaglutide (n = 22). Dehydration was the most frequent AE contributing to serious outcomes for liraglutide (n = 318, 23.93%), dulaglutide (n = 434, 20.90%), semaglutide (n = 370, 25.10%) and tirzepatide (n = 70, 32.86%). The time to onset (TTO) of AE was statistically different between exenatide and the other GLP-1 RAs (p < 0.001), and the Weibull parameters for dehydration for liraglutide, dulaglutide, and semaglutide analyses all showed an early failure-type profile. Conclusion: Our study suggests that exenatide, liraglutide, and semaglutide are more susceptible to metabolic and nutritional AEs than other GLP-1 RAs. Liraglutide, dulaglutide, semaglutide, and tirzepaptide's potential to induce dehydration, necessitates special attention. Despite certain deficiencies, GLP-1 RAs have considerable potential for the treatment of eating disorders.
RÉSUMÉ
INTRODUCTION: Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) are effective for glycemic control, with many also demonstrating cardiovascular (CV) benefit, in people with type 2 diabetes (T2D). This study aimed to find a consensus on the barriers and strategies for the optimal use of GLP-1 RAs in people with T2D and high CV risk or established cardiovascular disease (CVD) in Spain. METHODS: A two-round Delphi survey (53 questions) was conducted among members of four national scientific societies in Spain, including physicians experienced in the management of people with T2D. The degree of consensus was evaluated with a 7-point Likert scale, establishing consensus when ≥ 70% of the panelists agreed (6-7) or disagreed (1-2). RESULTS: A total of 97 physicians participated in the first round (endocrinology: 34%, family and community medicine: 21%, internal medicine: 23%, and cardiology: 23%), and 96 in the second round. The main barriers identified were: therapeutic inertia and late use of GLP-1 RAs; lack of a comprehensive approach to CV risk; lack of knowledge on the usefulness of GLP-1 RAs in CVD prevention and treatment; and economic/administrative barriers. Strategies with a highest consensus included: the need to establish simple protocols that integrate awareness of CV risk monitoring; training professionals and patients; and the use of new technologies. CONCLUSION: Physicians identified clinical, healthcare, and economic/administrative barriers that limit the use of GLP-1 RAs in people with T2D and high CV risk or established CVD in Spain, highlighting the importance of integrating these therapies according to clinical practice guidelines.
RÉSUMÉ
Background: We examined the real-world comparative safety of sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) vs. other newer anti-glycemic medications (dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors [DPP4i], glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists [GLP1a]) in patients with and without chronic kidney disease (CKD). Methods: Among US Veterans with diabetes receiving care from the Veterans Affairs (VA) healthcare system over 2004-19, we identified incident users of SGLT2i vs. DPP4i vs. GLP1a monotherapy. In analyses stratified by CKD status, defined by estimated glomerular filtration rate and albuminuria, we examined associations of SGLT2i vs. DPP4i vs. GLP1a use with risk of infection-related (primary outcome) and genitourinary infection hospitalizations (secondary outcome) using multivariable Cox models. Findings: Among 92,269 patients who met eligibility criteria, 52% did not have CKD, whereas 48% had CKD. In the overall and non-CKD cohorts, compared to DPP4i use, SGLT2i use was associated with lower infection-related hospitalization risk (HRs [95% CIs] 0.74 [0.67-0.81] and 0.77 [0.67, 0.88], respectively), whereas GLP1a use demonstrated comparable risk. However, in the CKD cohort SGLT2i and GLP1a use were each associated with lower risk (HRs [95% CIs] 0.70 [0.61, 0.81] and 0.91 [0.84, 0.99], respectively). Propensity score-matched analyses showed similar findings in the non-CKD and CKD cohorts. In the overall, non-CKD, and CKD cohorts, SGLT2i use was associated with lower genitourinary infection hospitalization risk whereas GLP1a use showed comparable risk vs. DPP4i use. Interpretation: In a national cohort of Veterans with diabetes, compared with DPP4i use, SGLT2i use was associated with lower infection-related and genitourinary infection hospitalization risk.

New diabetes drugs such as glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) and glucose-dependent insulinotropic peptide/GLP-1 RAs have emerged to show hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) reduction, weight loss, and cardiovascular benefits. Similarly, sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors' benefits span from HbA1c decrease to cardiovascular and renoprotective effects. Diabetes technology has expanded to include type 2 diabetes mellitus, with literature supporting its use in T2DM on any insulin regimen. Connected insulin pens and insulin delivery devices have opened new solutions to insulin users and automated insulin delivery systems have become the standard of care therapy for type 1 diabetes mellitus.

Until recently the focus in diabetes care was on managing blood glucose - a glucocentric view. This is changing to a more holistic model aimed at prevention, treatment and management through lifestyle interventions as well as medication. An estimated 5 million people in the UK are living with diabetes, most have type 2 diabetes which is associated with obesity. Type 2 diabetes can be prevented, treated with diet and weight loss, or managed with medication. The number of people with diabetes has reached epidemic proportions. To manage diabetes well and reduce complications of poorly managed diabetes, management of the condition can no longer be restricted to endocrinologists and diabetes specialist nurses. This article provides guidance on how glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists can be used in the management of type 2 diabetes.

Tirzepatide is a new drug targeting glucagon-like peptide 1(GLP1) and gastric inhibitory polypeptide (GIP) receptors. This drug has demonstrated great potential in improving the clinical outcomes of patients with type 2 diabetes. It can lead to weight loss, better glycemic control, and reduced cardiometabolic risk factors. GLP1 receptor agonists have been proven effective antidiabetic medications with possible cardiovascular benefits. Even though they have been proven to reduce the risk of major adverse cardiovascular events, their effectiveness in treating heart failure is unknown. Unlike traditional GLP1 receptor agonists, tirzepatide is more selective for the GIP receptor, resulting in a more balanced activation of these receptors. This review article discusses the possible mechanisms tirzepatide may use to improve cardiovascular health. That includes the anti-inflammatory effect, the ability to reduce cell death and promote autophagy, and also its indirect effects through blood pressure, obesity, and glucose/lipid metabolism. Additionally, tirzepatide may benefit atherosclerosis and lower the risk of major adverse cardiac events. Currently, clinical trials are underway to evaluate the safety and efficacy of tirzepatide in patients with heart failure. Overall, tirzepatide's dual agonism of GLP1 and GIP receptors appears to provide encouraging cardiovascular benefits beyond glycemic control, offering a potential new therapeutic option for treating cardiovascular diseases and heart failure.

Glucagon-like Peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) emerged as a primary treatment for type-2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), however, their multifaceted effects on various target organs beyond glycemic control opened a new era of treatment. We conducted a comprehensive literature search using databases including Scopus, Google Scholar, PubMed, and the Cochrane Library to identify clinical, in-vivo, and in-vitro studies focusing on the diverse effects of GLP-1 receptor agonists. Eligible studies were selected based on their relevance to the varied roles of GLP-1RAs in T2DM management and their impact on other physiological functions. Numerous studies have reported the efficacy of GLP-1RAs in improving outcomes in T2DM, with demonstrated benefits including glucose-dependent insulinotropic actions, modulation of insulin signaling pathways, and reductions in glycemic excursions. Additionally, GLP-1 receptors are expressed in various tissues and organs, suggesting their widespread physiological functions beyond glycemic control potentially include neuroprotective, anti-inflammatory, cardioprotective, and metabolic benefits. However, further scientific studies are still underway to maximize the benefits of GLP-1RAs and to discover additional roles in improving health benefits. This article sought to review not only the actions of GLP1RAs in the treatment of T2DM but also explore its effects on potential targets in other disorders.

The increasing prevalence of obesity imposes significant health challenges, particularly in women undergoing menopause. Effective obesity management is essential to mitigate associated comorbidities and improve quality of life. The pillars of obesity treatment encompass lifestyle modifications, pharmacotherapy and surgical interventions. Pharmacotherapy may be considered for women who do not achieve adequate weight loss through lifestyle changes alone and have obesity or overweight with risk factors. Bariatric surgery is reserved for individuals with severe obesity or those with obesity-related complications. During menopause, hormonal changes contribute to weight gain and fat redistribution, complicating obesity management. Tailored treatment strategies are necessary to address the unique challenges faced by this population. The role of physicians and gynecologists is pivotal in the multidisciplinary approach to obesity management during menopause. Gynecologists are often the primary health-care providers for menopausal women and are in a unique position to offer guidance on weight management. They can provide personalized counseling, coordinate with nutritionists, endocrinologists and bariatric specialists, and monitor the effects of obesity and its treatment on reproductive health. By integrating obesity management into routine gynecological care, gynecologists can significantly impact the overall health and well-being of menopausal women.
