I am delighted to share our new publication in @CellPressNews. We assessed calories to satiation (CTS) and integrated a machine-learning genetic risk score (CTS-GRS) to predict CTS . High CTS or CTS-GRS responded better to Phen-Top; low CTS or CTS-GRS responded to GLP1 (lira)

#DDW2025 4 #Obesity phenotypes 1️⃣Abn satiation:⬆️calories needed for satiation 2️⃣Abn postprandial satiety: ⬆️gastric emptying & ⬆️ postprandial hunger 3️⃣Emotional eating 4️⃣Abn resting energy expenditure 🔺Each phenotypes w distinct #microbiome signature -> potential intervention?

At @DDWMeeting The next fronteir for obesity phenotypes requires to elucidate the unique microbial signature of each phenotype. @danazcomd (rising start) showing the data today. Fascinating findings!
