Why does the liver accumulate fat in the early stages of MASLD? Our latest study reveals a major, often overlooked player: the small intestine. 🧵👇

A striking 52% rise in oral glucose absorption is seen in #MASLD, spotlighting the gut–liver axis as a potential early driver of disease @MetaLab_Unipi https://t.co/6obsVtBb2r 🔓

🚀 GLP-1 medicines have revolutionized the treatment of type 2 diabetes and obesity.

⚖️ However, there is tremendous heterogeneity in response to treatment and significant unmet need exists.

📊 42.9% of those with type 2 diabetes failed to have clinically meaningful improvement in glycemic control or body weight, according to a real world study of European adults with type 2 diabetes

❗📉 Only 14% achieved meaningful reductions in BOTH a1c and body weight.
