Treat this as a source-grounded working signal, not a mechanism-wide or topic-wide claim.\n\n## Evidence Landscape\n\n_Evidence-map boundary: cited receipts are separate evidence streams unless an integrated analysis is explicitly stated; this memo maps a testable contrast, not a pooled meta-analysis or settled conclusion._\n\n**Bounded research question:** Does the cited receipt bundle still support this bounded claim when population, endpoint, comparator, and time window are aligned?\n\n## Evidence receipts\n\n- `fact_id=137772` (`A_core`) — 69%-79% of participants achieved ≥10% weight loss with semaglutide 2.4 mg (vs. 12%-27% with placebo) doi=10.1111/dom.14863\n- `fact_id=145389` (`A_core`) — More participants achieved weight loss ≥5% from baseline at week 104 with semaglutide (77.1%) versus placebo (34.4%; P<0.0001). doi=10.1038/s41591-022-02026-4\n- `fact_id=149514` (`A_core`) — semaglutide (1.8%) versus placebo (2.2%) doi=10.1038/s41591-024-03015-5\n- `fact_id=167544` (`A_core`) — subcutaneous semaglutide is effective for weight loss with an 11.85% reduction from baseline compared to placebo. doi=10.15605/jafes.037.02.14\n- `fact_id=144494` (`A_core`) — At 208 weeks, semaglutide was associated with mean reduction in weight (-10.2%) versus placebo (-1.5%; P < 0.0001). doi=10.1038/s41591-024-02996-7\n\n## Context receipts\n\n_Boundary evidence only; these receipts broaden source context but do not independently prove the lead claim._\n\n- `fact_id=149782` (`A_core`) — semaglutide induced a significant body weight loss (MD: -10.09%; 95% CI: -11.84 to -8.33; p ˂ 0.00001) doi=10.3389/fphar.2022.935823\n\n## What this changes\n\n_Interpretation boundary: this is a hypothesis-generating alpha map, not confirmatory evidence or a settled conclusion. The heterogeneity matters because it routes the next test to the specific population, endpoint, comparator, and time window that can replicate, rather than letting a broad topic-level effect claim leak across mismatched receipts._\n\nTreat this as a focused working signal, not a broad topic claim. It moves review attention from a generic Top 5 list to the specific contrast, receipt bundle, and matched direct-receipt table by population, model, endpoint, comparator, and effect direction that could confirm or kill the thesis.\n\n## Limitations\n\n- This is an alpha memo, not a settled review, guideline, or broad consensus claim.\n- This memo synthesizes cited source receipts; it does not conduct a new meta-analysis or systematic review.\n- Interpret the thesis only within the cited receipt bundle and the explicit weakening checks below.\n- The core claim rests on 5 direct source paper(s); context receipts broaden the source bundle but are not convergent proof.\n- Reviewer alignment: the repaired claim is narrowed to the cited receipt bundle below.\n- Independent receipts fail to reproduce the claimed contrast.\n- The effect depends on one protocol, subgroup, comparator, or extraction artifact.\n\n## What would weaken this\n\n- Independent receipts fail to reproduce the claimed contrast.\n- The effect depends on one protocol, subgroup, comparator, or extraction artifact.\n\n## Strongest counter-evidence\n\n- `fact_id=137771` (`A_core`) — semaglutide 2.4 mg was associated with mean weight losses of 14.9%-17.4% in individuals with overweight or obesity without type 2 diabetes from baseline to week 68 Source: Semaglutide for the treatment of overweight and obesity: A review\n","metadata":{"abstract":"The cited direct receipts support a bounded working claim: 69%-79% of participants achieved ≥10% weight loss with semaglutide 2.4 mg (vs. 12%-27% with placebo);
