Short-term effects of low-dose tirzepatide on lipid profile, glucose homeostasis and hepatic steatosis index in adults with obesity, but without diabetes mellitus: a prospective observational study
Background/aims
Tirzepatide has been approved for weight loss in adults with obesity. However, real-world data are still needed. This real-world prospective study is among the first to evaluate the short-term metabolic effects of low-dose tirzepatide in adults with obesity but without diabetes mellitus (DM). Secondary endpoints included associations between these changes and anthropometric or baseline metabolic parameters.
Methods
In this prospective observational study, adults with obesity but without diabetes mellitus received tirzepatide (2.5 mg/week, escalating to 5 mg/week, subcutaneously) for 12 weeks. Body weight, body mass index (BMI), total (TC), low-density (LDL-C) and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), triglycerides, fasting plasma glucose (FPG), glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), and hepatic steatosis index (HSI) were measured at baseline and week 12.
Results
Seventy-five participants (mean age 46.9 ± 9.9 years) were included. After 12 weeks, body weight (−8.1 ± 4.3 %) and BMI significantly decreased. TC, LDL-C, triglycerides, FPG, HbA1c, and HSI were significantly reduced and inversely associated with their baseline levels. HbA1c and HSI changes correlated with weight loss. No effect was observed on HDL-C. Statin use had no impact on outcomes.
Conclusion
Short-term low-dose tirzepatide improves the lipid profile, HbA1c, and HSI in obese adults without DM, especially in those with abnormal baseline values. Lipid changes occurred independently of weight loss.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Diabetes and Its Complications (JDC) is a journal for health care practitioners and researchers, that publishes original research about the pathogenesis, diagnosis and management of diabetes mellitus and its complications. JDC also publishes articles on physiological and molecular aspects of glucose homeostasis.
The primary purpose of JDC is to act as a source of information usable by diabetes practitioners and researchers to increase their knowledge about mechanisms of diabetes and complications development, and promote better management of people with diabetes who are at risk for those complications.
Manuscripts submitted to JDC can report any aspect of basic, translational or clinical research as well as epidemiology. Topics can range broadly from early prediabetes to late-stage complicated diabetes. Topics relevant to basic/translational reports include pancreatic islet dysfunction and insulin resistance, altered adipose tissue function in diabetes, altered neuronal control of glucose homeostasis and mechanisms of drug action. Topics relevant to diabetic complications include diabetic retinopathy, neuropathy and nephropathy; peripheral vascular disease and coronary heart disease; gastrointestinal disorders, renal failure and impotence; and hypertension and hyperlipidemia.
