GLP-1 Analogues: Mechanisms, Clinical Implications, and the Role of Body Composition Monitoring

Mechanisms of action of GLP-1 and metabolic effects The use of GLP-1 analogues has developed widely in recent years in the management of type II diabetes and obesity. GLP-1 (Glucagon-Like Peptide-1) is an intestinal hormone secreted physiologically by enteroendocrine cells, with a postprandial increase. This hormone exerts a pleiotropic action involving several organs and systems […]
The Role of Bioimpedance Spectroscopy in the Obese Patient’s Treatment Adherence

Obesity assessment has evolved beyond the body mass index (BMI). Today, bioimpedance spectroscopy (BIS) is positioned as an emerging standard for characterizing body composition and guiding therapeutic adherence. Its ability to go beyond the BMI, by calculating parameters such as the Fat Mass Index (FMI), Fat-Free Mass Index (FFMI), phase angle (PA), capacitance, and impedance […]
