Introduction: Graves' disease (GD) is associated with primary hyperthyroidism, leading to weight loss before treatment. During the treatment, weight gain is frequently observed, often surpassing the initial weight loss. This...

After treatment, ≈60% of individuals encountered weight gain, exhibiting a higher prevalence among women and those undergoing definitive treatment modalities.

Hedonic Hunger, Eating Behavior, and Food Reward and Preferences 1 Year After Initial Weight Loss by Diet or Bariatric Surgery

Hedonic Hunger, Eating Behavior, and Food Reward and Preferences 1 Year After Initial Weight Loss by Diet or Bariatric Surgery

Source : https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38653583/

Continued WL with bariatric surgery is paralleled by favorable changes in eating behavior and food reward and preferences. By contrast, controls experienced weight regain at 1Y follow-up and no changes...

Decreases in emotional eating, hunger, disinhibition, and food reward and increases in dietary restraint were seen at 1 year of follow-up in the bariatric-surgery groups alone.

Dual Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 and Glucagon Receptor Agonism Reduces Energy Intake in Type 2 Diabetes With Obesity

Dual Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 and Glucagon Receptor Agonism Reduces Energy Intake in Type 2 Diabetes With Obesity

Source : https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38562018/

Weight loss with cotadutide is primarily driven by reduced EI, with relatively small compensatory changes in EE.

Mean weight change was -4.0% and -1.4% for the cotadutide and placebo groups, respectively, and energy intake was lower with cotadutide versus placebo.

Prepregnancy Maternal Obesity and Infant Neurodevelopmental Outcomes in Latino Infants

Source : https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38600046

Managing maternal obesity pre-pregnancy is crucial for improving infant neurodevelopmental outcomes, especially in low-income Latino families. Promoting healthy weight and enhancing infant diet quality can enhance neurodevelopment in these populations.

Prepregnancy BMI showed significant negative associations with child cognitive scores and language scores at 24 months.

Background: Cushing's disease (CD) is associated with a specific form of metabolic syndrome that includes visceral obesity, which may affect cardiovascular hemodynamics by stimulating hypercortisolism-related metabolic activity. The purpose of...

Use of novel diagnostic modalities demonstrated that excessive fat accumulation in young and middle-aged patients with Cushing disease, already at the early stages of the disease, is associated with some hemodynamic changes in the CV system.

Exploring the Association Between Suicidal Thoughts, Self-Injury, and GLP-1 Receptor Agonists in Weight Loss Treatments: Insights From Pharmacovigilance Measures and Unmasking Analysis

Source : https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38508100/

With the current pharmacovigilance approach, no causality link between suicidal ideation and use of any GLP-1 RA can be inferred. There is a need for further research and vigilance in...

The authors postulated that rapid weight loss achieved with GLP-1 receptor agonists could potentially trigger significant emotional, biologic, and psychological responses, possibly impacting suicidal and self-injurious ideations.
