Secondary analysis of the SELECT trial finds semaglutide 2.4 mg lowered all-cause death in adults with obesity and cardiovascular disease but no diabetes, with much of the non-cardiovascular benefit driven by fewer infectious and COVID-19-related deaths. PICO summary and expert commentary.
A prespecified SELECT analysis shows semaglutide reduced cardiovascular events in overweight or obese adults without diabetes regardless of baseline HbA1c or HbA1c change. PICO summary and expert commentary.
