- Imaging before biochemical tests can lead to unnecessary pituitary surgeries.
- A case study of a 30-year-old man illustrates how his thyrotroph hyperplasia and hypopituitarism improved with levothyroxine treatment; this will be discussed alongside current literature on the topic.
Background Dyslipidemia is a common complication of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), which is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in developed countries, including Saudi Arabia. Injectable glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RA) are recent therapies found to be effective in treating dyslipidemia in diabetic patients by acting similarly to the body's internal glucagon peptide hormone, regulating blood sugar levels and reducing triglycerides and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) levels.
