# Bibliography

> Semaglutide Texas bibliography — The Semaglutide Texas reading list brings together the weight, cardiovascular, kidney, appetite, alcohol and safety papers used in this folio.

The trials and review that give the folio its scale, its time spans and its unresolved questions.

## Weight and duration

[STEP 1](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33567185/) supplies the weight-change comparison. [STEP 5](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36216945/) extends the observation period; [SURMOUNT-5](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40353578/) supplies a direct tirzepatide comparison. They are gathered in the [weight-loss folio](/weight-loss).

## Disease outcomes and treatment burden

[SELECT](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37952131/), [FLOW](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38785209/) and [STEP-HFpEF](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37622681/) ask distinct cardiovascular, kidney and symptom questions. [SUSTAIN-6](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/27633186/) and the [safety review](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34305810/) also anchor the side-effects account.

## Appetite and the alcohol experiment

The [rodent neural-pathway study](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32213703/) and the [human alcohol-use-disorder trial](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39937469/) sit together in the [appetite folio](/appetite-and-alcohol). Their different study populations are central to the discussion.
