Arturo Cesaro: First Meta-Analysis on the Vascular Protective Role of Semaglutide in PAD
Arturo Cesaro, Assistant Professor of Cardiology at University of Campania “Luigi Vanvitelli”, shared a post on LinkedIn about a recent article he and his colleagues co-authored, adding:
“Just published in European Journal of Preventive Cardiology
Proud to share our newly published systematic review and meta-analysis evaluating the impact of semaglutide on peripheral artery disease (PAD)-related outcomes.
First meta-analysis focusing on PAD as a hard endpoint across randomized trials
Key takeaways
- Semaglutide was associated with a significant reduction in limb events
- Findings support a potential vascular protective role beyond coronary disease, extending to the peripheral circulation
A step forward in extending cardiometabolic prevention beyond the coronary circulation.
Huge thanks to all co-authors and collaborators for an outstandingy team effort.”
