Objectives

Narrative objectives1

To prospectively evaluate the effects of pharmacological treatment with GLP-1 receptor agonists or GLP-1/GIP receptor agonists on flow-mediated dilation (FMD) in patients with obesity complicated by hypertension. In addition, exploratory analyses will be performed to investigate associations with autonomic nervous function (CVRR) and neuroendocrine markers (ACTH and serum cortisol).

Assessment

Primary outcomes

Change in flow-mediated dilation (FMD) from baseline to 52 weeks after initiation of pharmacological treatment

Key secondary outcomes

Changes in coefficient of variation of R-R intervals (CVRR), ACTH, serum cortisol, body weight, BMI, HbA1c, lipid profile, liver function, renal function, and ABI/CAVI from baseline to 52 weeks after treatment initiation. Exploratory analyses will also be performed to evaluate associations between changes in FMD and changes in CVRR, ACTH, and serum cortisol.

Other related information

This study is a single-center prospective observational study in patients with obesity complicated by hypertension. Participants receiving GLP-1 receptor agonists or GLP-1/GIP receptor agonists as part of routine clinical practice will be observed without study-specific therapeutic intervention. Flow-mediated dilation (FMD), coefficient of variation of R-R intervals (CVRR), ACTH, serum cortisol, anthropometric parameters, and metabolic parameters will be evaluated at baseline, 24 weeks, and 52 weeks after treatment initiation.
