What this claim means

Among adults with obesity who were prescribed semaglutide in a real-world setting, most were women and White, which means the results from this group may not apply equally to men or people from other...

See the technical phrasing

In a real-world cohort of adults with obesity prescribed semaglutide, 73% of patients were female and 93% were White, indicating that the demographic composition of this cohort may limit the generalizability of findings to other demographic groups.

Why this might work
Supported
based on 1 study

Most people in this group who took the medicine were women and white, so we don’t know if the medicine works the same way for men or people of other backgrounds because they weren’t studied enough.
