As we head to the 2025 American Diabetes Association GIP biology will be part of the conversation. Here Samms and Sloop summarize the compelling scientific story of Tirzepatide and the case for GIPR co-agonism #Diabetes #Weightloss #obesity diabetesjournals.org/diabetes/artic…

📣The Primary Care cardio-renal-metabolic philosophy of care is clear when it comes to #CVRM conditions - we have no favourites, we focus on them all 📣 See below for our updated Medscape #hacks on #CKD. We do not want to dialyse, thus we must strategize! #wholepersoncare #CKD

🩺 MASLD in T2D — but who needs fibrosis screening?

📊 In Swedish primary care (n=308):
59% had MASLD
7% had suspected advanced fibrosis
1.9% had cirrhosis

⚠️ Obesity = key driver
13% of obese had fibrosis
aOR = 9.1 vs non-obese
&lt;2% if BMI &lt;30

‘The concept of type 2 diabetes remission requires a paradigm shift towards patient-centred care..holistic disease management & evidence-based interventions aiming for sustained reduction of hyperglycaemia & adiposity, and optimisation of cardiometabolic risk factors’ 👏🏻👏🏻#CVRM

PATHWEIGH : First study of obesity intervention scaled to a population in primary care covering over 270,000 people with BMI>25!! The care delivery / implementation WORKED using existing workflows and tools and actually generated revenue!#adascisessions Implementation success!

Couldn’t agree more, whole person care is intuitive to family medicine, it is what we have been trained to do, and it is what these people deserve. #primarycareobesitycare

Delighted to join Kim Vesco to debate weight loss in pregnancy- presenting novel data from #DiGest trial funded by Diabetes UK Research. Take home message- 2-3 kg weight loss in late pregnancy in #GDM is safe & beneficial for women with BMI>25 &their babies. nature.com/articles/s4159…

Simply increasing statin doses isn’t the best solution for persistently high LDL-C. Doubling the dose only reduces LDL-C by ~6%—a diminishing return even at dramatically higher doses. Combination therapy is significantly more effective for most patients.

One of the most important and yet overlooked concepts in modern medicine. Obesity is not just another condition. Obesity is the central hub from which many chronic diseases emerge. Despite its significance, it remains misunderstood and marginalized in healthcare systems. If we

As some of you know, I look after many people with diabetes that have severe learning disability and are non-verbal. Today one proudly showed me a glucose trace 'in green' on their Libre app, then kissed the screen and then fist bumped me on the way out 😍 It's the most
