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.
A prespecified FLOW analysis found once-weekly semaglutide 1 mg lowered the composite of heart failure events or cardiovascular death by 27 percent in type 2 diabetes with chronic kidney disease. PICO summary and expert commentary.
A secondary analysis of the SELECT trial examined whether weekly semaglutide 2.4 mg lowered all-cause, cardiovascular, non-cardiovascular, and COVID-19-related death in adults with overweight or obesity and cardiovascular disease without diabetes. PICO summary and expert commentary.
A secondary analysis of the pooled STEP-HFpEF and STEP-HFpEF DM trials showing semaglutide benefits were consistent across baseline inflammation strata. PICO summary and expert commentary.
Prespecified secondary analysis of the STEP-HFpEF Program testing whether semaglutide 2.4 mg benefits in obesity-related HFpEF differ by atrial fibrillation history. PICO summary and expert commentary.
An echocardiography substudy of the STEP-HFpEF Program found that once-weekly semaglutide 2.4 mg attenuated left atrial and right ventricular remodelling versus placebo, without changing left ventricular systolic function. PICO summary and expert commentary.
