But has only weak/moderate effect on weight loss compared to semaglutide, tirzepatide and retatrutide.

Alzheimer is a lot more difficult to measure than weight and amyloid-beta in the brain obviously significantly harder to target than the GLP-1 receptor in the body.

Also, a review pooling together all GLP-1's (including those that failed in development) and concluding that they as a class have only moderate or weak effect on weight loss, would obviously be badly misleading.
