GLP-1RAs up risk for ischaemic optic neuropathy in T2D patients

23 Jul 2026

The use of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) results in an increased risk for ischaemic optic neuropathy (ION) at 18 months when compared with the use of sodium‒glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) and dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors (DPP4is), reports a study.

Patients who underwent total knee arthroplasty (TKA) in the morning and received physiotherapy review in the same afternoon have a higher chance of being discharged within 24 h, suggests a Singapore study. This is possible because of early ambulation and adequate time for the spinal anaesthesia to wear off.
