Beyond the Heart: Why Metabolic Gains Are the True Drivers of GLP-1RA Cardioprotection

By MedXY 12/30/2025

A robust Mendelian randomization study demonstrates that the reduced risk of myocardial infarction associated with GLP-1 receptor agonists is primarily mediated by improvements in HbA1c, BMI, and lipid profiles, rather than direct cardiac effects.
