Article Synopsis
- Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RA) may be linked to a higher risk of acute pancreatitis (AP) in some cases.
- A real-world study found no increased frequency of AP among adults with Type 2 diabetes (T2D) who had a prior history of AP when using GLP-1RAs.
- The study suggests that GLP-1RAs are potentially safe for T2D patients with previous AP issues, but further research is still needed.

Background And Purpose: Acute vertigo (sense of motion) can be the sole manifestation of a posterior circulation stroke, and often gets missed in the emergency department (ED). The studies for evaluation of central vertigo have focused on physical exam findings, which require expertise and may not be suitable for rapid triage by a nurse in ED or by paramedics.
Methods: This cross sectional study included retrospective chart review of patients 18 years of age and older who presented to the Adult ED with acute dizziness or vertigo during the calendar year 2017.
