At some point, somebody at the site changed the title. The old title was "GLP-1 Drugs Improve Heart Health, But Only If You Keep Taking Them."

How do I know that? The URL slug tells the tale.

I strongly suspect this is the reason the title was changed.

I know they (Ars Technica) do A/B title tests sometimes from discussion with one of the people who works there.

The original title is so much more informative. It might be so informative that many people didn't feel a need to read the article.
