  1. 01HumanObservational studySafety outcome

    In adults having esophagogastroduodenoscopy under sedation, increased residual gastric content was more frequent in recent semaglutide users than in non-users.

    In plain wordsIn adults having a stomach scope under sedation, recent semaglutide users more often had food or fluid left in the stomach than non-users.

    Summary
    Among the 1094 (SG = 123; NSG = 971) patients included, increased RGC was observed in 56 (5.12%), being 25 (20.33%) in the SG and 31 (3.19%) in the NSG (p < 0.001).

    Summary · context
    Patients undergoing esophagogastroduodenoscopy under deep sedation/general anesthesia between July/2021-July/2023 were included and divided into two (SG = semaglutide, NSG = non-semaglutide) groups, according to whether they had received semaglutide within 30 days prior to the esophagogastroduodenoscopy.
  2. 02HumanObservational studySafety outcome

    In adults having esophagogastroduodenoscopy, stopping semaglutide less than 8 days before the procedure remained associated with increased residual gastric content after weighting.

    In plain wordsIn adults having a stomach scope, stopping semaglutide less than 8 days earlier was linked to more food or fluid left in the stomach.

  3. 03HumanObservational studySafety outcome

    In adults having esophagogastroduodenoscopy, stopping semaglutide 8-14 days before the procedure remained associated with increased residual gastric content after weighting.

    In plain wordsIn adults having a stomach scope, stopping semaglutide 8 to 14 days earlier was still linked to more food or fluid left in the stomach.

  4. 04HumanObservational studySafety outcome

    In adults having esophagogastroduodenoscopy, stopping semaglutide more than 14 days before the procedure, without digestive symptoms, showed no association with increased residual gastric content.

    In plain wordsIn adults having a stomach scope, stopping semaglutide over 14 days earlier, with no stomach symptoms, was not linked to leftover stomach contents.

    Summary
    Following inverse probability treatment weighting adjustment including a composite variable 'time intervals of semaglutide interruption' versus 'presence of ongoing digestive symptoms', only time intervals > 14 days and without digestive symptoms showed no association with increased RGC [OR = 0.77 (95%CI 0.22-2.01)].
