Why does tirzepatide have a more tolerable gastrointestinal side effect profile than semaglutide? 🤢 GIP agonism coupled with GLP1 receptor agonism decreases gastrointestinal side effects. 🤲 In a study of a long-acting GIP added to liraglutide attenuated GI side effect rates

šŸ†™ GLP1 discontinuation after one year is high Treatment discontinuation rate varies by study but can be 50% after 1 year. šŸ‘Øā€šŸ¦³ 🤢 Age >65 and gastrointestinal events are predictors of higher discontinuation rates. Those with type 2 diabetes have lower discontinuation rates.

Thank you ILTS for #ilts2025 YI award. Full work in Annals of Surgery Open offers improve liver graft utilization ONLY in high risk DBD and DCDs. Right now, OOS use no correlation with graft risk 😳. We define a better way forward. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40255174/ 1/2
