This subset of obesity is characterized by a dearth of established predictive markers and a paucity of standardized therapeutic protocols. The advent and rising prominence of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists in the obesity treatment landscape present novel therapeutic avenues for hypothalamic obesity management. Nonetheless, critical inquiries persist concerning the efficacy of GLP-1 receptor (GLP-1R) agonists in this context, particularly regarding their central mechanisms of action and specific impact on hypothalamic obesity.</p></div><div><h3>Methods</h3><p>In this narrative review, we concentrate on analyzing research papers that delineate the detection and function of GLP-1 receptors across various hypothalamic and cerebral regions. Additionally, we examine clinical research papers and reports detailing the application of GLP-1 receptor agonists in treating hypothalamic obesity. Furthermore, we include a concise presentation of a clinical case from our unit for contextual understanding.</p></div><div><h3>Results</h3><p>Currently, the clinical evidence supporting the efficacy of GLP-1 receptor agonists in hypothalamic obesity, as well as the diverse characteristics of this obesity subtype, remains insufficient. Preliminary data suggest that GLP-1R agonists might offer an effective treatment option, albeit with variable outcomes, particularly in younger patient cohorts. From a mechanistic perspective, the presence of GLP-1 receptors in various hypothalamic and broader brain regions potentially underpins the efficacy of GLP-1R agonists, even in instances of hypothalamic damage. Nevertheless, additional research is imperative to establish the functional relevance of these receptors in said brain regions.</p></div><div><h3>Conclusion</h3><p>GLP-1R agonists represent a potential therapeutic option for patients with hypothalamic obesity.

The MI group received monthly interviews: three face-to-face interviews before the pandemic, and three video chat interviews after the outbreak of COVID-19 spanning a total of six months. The control group received six, monthly education modules. Body composition was measured by the iDexa and self-determination theory (SDT) variables were assessed with surveys.</p></div><div><h3>Results</h3><p>Mixed ANOVAs from pre-post revealed significant changes in fat mass (p = .03, η<sup>2</sup> = 0.22), lean mass (p < .05, η<sup>2</sup> = 0.18), body fat percentage (<em>p</em> < .01, η<sup>2</sup> = 0.37), autonomy (p < .01, η<sup>2</sup> = 0.38), relatedness (p < .01, η<sup>2</sup> = 0.41), amotivation (p = .01, η<sup>2</sup> = 0.29), external regulation (p = .02, η<sup>2</sup> = 0.23), identified regulation (p = .02, η<sup>2</sup> = 0.25), integrated regulation (p < .00, η<sup>2</sup> = 0.49), and intrinsic regulation (p = .01, η<sup>2</sup> = 0.27).</p></div><div><h3>Conclusions</h3><p>In this exploratory analysis, MI demonstrated a positive trend in body composition maintenance when compared to online education among overweight college students during a national pandemic. Future studies utilizing MI would enhance the literature by further investigating the relationship between MI and SDT and measuring body composition.</p><p>Clinicaltrials.gov. identifier: NCT04130386.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100977,"journal":{"name":"Obesity Pillars","volume":"9 ","pages":"Article 100097"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2667368123000438/pdfft?md5=9433796914156168668f05039cbdc084&pid=1-s2.0-S2667368123000438-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139099852","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
