Liraglutide, sold under the brand name Victoza among others, is an anti-diabetic medication used to treat type 2 diabetes, and chronic obesity. [6] [7] It is a second-line therapy for diabetes following first-line therapy with metformin. [6] [8] Its effects on long-term health outcomes like heart disease and life expectancy are unclear.

A new generic of the GLP-1 drug Victoza, which is similar to popular medications like Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, and Zepbound, is now available in the United States.
The origin on the Wedgwood scale (0 °W) was set at the onset temperature of red heat, 1,077.5 °F (580.8 °C). The scale had 240 steps of 130 °F (72 °C) and extended up to 32,277 °F (17,914 °C). [8] [11] Wedgwood tried to compare his scale with other scales by measuring the expansion of silver as a function of
1742 — Anders Celsius proposed a temperature scale in which 100 represented the temperature of melting ice and 0 represented the boiling point of water at 25 inches and 3 lines of barometric mercury height. [8] This corresponds to 751.16 mm, [9] so that on the present-day definition, this boiling point is 99.67 degrees Celsius. [10]

In 1847, Carl Bergmann published his observations that endothermic body size (i.e. mammals) increased with increasing latitude, commonly known as Bergmann's rule. [9] His rule postulated that selection favored within species individuals with larger body sizes in cooler temperatures because the total heat loss would be diminished through lower surface area to volume ratios.
