In addition, the authors noted that tirzepatide showed no meaningful benefit over semaglutide. Despite the widespread morbidity and mortality burden of HFpEF, current treatment options are limited, corresponding author Nils Krger, MD, with the division of pharmacoepidemiology and pharmacoeconomics at Brigham and Womens Hospital, said in a statement

SBP reduction was mostly mediated by weight loss (7794%) in SURPASS-1, -2 and -3, while mechanisms independent from weight loss accounted for most of the tirzepatide benefit on SBP in SURPASS-4 and -5 (57 and 73%, respectively) [77]
8%, 15%, 30%, 45%, 60% w/v) or iodixanol (OptiPrep) gradients (typically 2050% iodixanol) to float vesicles to their equilibrium densities [90, 91]
The discovery of RET mutations and insight gained from the correlation of clinical phenotype with specific molecular changes has led to the current classification system (Table 1) (89)
Retatrutide is the unimolecular triple agonist furthest in development and data from phase 2 trials suggests that this may soon become the most potent weight-lowering pharmacotherapy to be licenced
