Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Liraglutide Group

Participants in this group will receive the Liraglutide intervention for 12 months

Drug: Liraglutide
1.8 mg Liraglutide administered subcutaneously once daily for 12 consecutive months
Other Names:
  • Victoza
  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Change in Epicardial Fat Thickness [Baseline, 12 months]

      Epicardial fat thickness measured in mm via ultrasound

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Change in serum immunoglobulins [Baseline, 12 months]

      Immunoglobin levels assessed in g/L will be evaluated using serum blood samples

    2. Change in plasma ceramide levels [Baseline, 12 months]

      Plasma ceramide levels will be evaluated in umol/L
