Newest firstObjectives To investigate whether initiation of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists is associated with both reduced risks of incident alcohol, cannabis, cocaine, nicotine, opioid, and other substance use disorders (SUDs) in people with no history of SUDs (protocol 1) and with reduced risk of SUD related adverse clinical outcomes among people with a pre-existing SUD (protocol 2). Design Emulation of e…
Open article record in new tab ↗Emerging evidence suggests that glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor (GLP1R) agonists may have potential benefits for mental illnesses. However, their exact effects remain unclear. This study investigated the causal relationship between glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP1RA) and the risk of 10 common mental illnesses, including attention deficit and hyperactivity disorder, anorexia nervosa, anxiety disorder…
Open article record in new tab ↗Pharmacological modulation of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) through dual GIP/GLP-1 receptor agonists, commonly used for diabetes and obesity, shows promise in reducing alcohol consumption. We applied drug-target Mendelian randomization (MR) using genetic variation at these loci to assess their long-term effects on problematic alcohol use (PAU), binge drinkin…
Cannabis is the most frequently used illicit drug in the United States with more than 45 million users of whom one-third suffer from a cannabis use disorder (CUD). Despite its high prevalence, there are currently no FDA-approved medications for CUD. Patients treated with semaglutide, a glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1RA) approved for treating type 2 diabetes (T2D) and for weight management have repo…
