Description:

In this podcast, Dr. Valentin Fuster reviews findings from the SUMMIT trial, which examined how tirzepatide impacts patients with obesity-related heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) and chronic kidney disease (CKD). The study revealed that while tirzepatide improved cardiovascular outcomes and slightly boosted kidney function, the benefits in CKD patients may stem from mechanisms beyond glomerular filtration alone.
