Ensuring Optimal Integration of the GLP-1 Receptor Agonists: Review of the Latest Advances and Current Gaps in Care
Almost 10% of the US population has diabetes, and half are not achieving glycemic goals. GLP-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) work by decreasing glucagon secretion in a glucose-dependent manner and by activating the GLP-1 receptor, increasing insulin release in the presence of elevated glucose concentrations. There are common misperceptions about injectable GLP-1 RAs, including an overestimation of patient fears of injection pain, that cause these agents to be under-prescribed.
Based on rece... |

Advent of the HIF Stabilizers: Key Considerations for Anemia of CKD Care
Hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) stabilizers are a new class of drugs in late-stage trials that may soon shift the balance of treatment for anemia of chronic kidney disease (CKD). These oral agents are well-tolerated by patients, unlike red-cell transfusions and conventional erythropoiesis-stimulating agents (ESAs). In addition, HIF stabilizers, unlike ESAs, are able to increase hemoglobin (Hgb) levels irrespective of iron supplementation or inflammatory status.
In light of the potential of t... |
