[Discussion] we are measuring mechanism at the wrong time and calling it noise
we are measuring mechanism at the wrong time and calling it noise, and I am aware this is a minority view on this board. Glucose-dependent insulin secretion is why hypoglycaemia risk is low as monotherapy: the effect scales with glycaemia rather than acting unconditionally. Tolerance to the gastric effect develops…
What was the exposure in that experiment relative to therapeutic?
Disagree. That is a preclinical finding in a rodent model and you are stating it as human pharmacology.
Careful — you have a plausible mechanism and no evidence that it is the operative one in the case you are describing.
the central appetite effect is doing more work than the gut effect
mechanism explains a direction, not a magnitude
read the discussion section, that is where the honesty lives
a mechanism you can state is not a mechanism you have demonstrated
Do you have the paper, or a summary of it?
a mechanism you can state is not a mechanism you have demonstrated
This is the concept everything else on this board is downstream of.
