Studies show the peptide increases dendritic spine density by 40-60% in treated brain regions, with formation of new functional synaptic connections confirmed by electrophysiological recordings demonstrating enhanced synaptic transmission and long-term potentiation
Further drug development is needed to address these issues (Nakamura 2015

Add escalation, missed-dose, measurement, monitoring, and red-flag context
For the log-transformed meal test end points (all except iAUC), the estimated treatment differences and the corresponding CI were back-transformed to the original scale and presented as the ratio between liraglutide and placebo, with corresponding 95% CIs
As discussed previously, BDNF has a neuroprotective role, favoring survival and enhancing synaptic plasticity and transmission
