Mice lacking this gene showed signs of premature aging (shorter lifespan, osteoporosis, vascular calcification, skin atrophy)
Routine clinic messaging should not replace emergency evaluation
This is consistent, the team said, with the prevailing hypothesis suggesting that [semaglutides] therapeutic effects arise from overlapping neurobiological mechanisms that modulate both metabolic regulation and reward-related pathways shared between obesity and alcohol use disorder. The team concluded: Findings from this trial provide support for broadening the indication for semaglutide to [include] AUD in patients with a BMI of 30 or greater, which could benefit millions. About 890 million adults globally have a BMI over 30, and in the U.S., 8 million adults are estimated to have obesity and high alcohol consumption
