The ‘Body Mass Index’ (BMI) is an anachronistic and outdated ratio that used as internationally accepted diagnostic criterion for obesity, to prioritise, stratify, outcome-assess its management options. On individual level, the BMI has potential mislead, including inaccuracies in cardiovascular risk assessment. Furthermore, places excessive emphasis on a reduction overall body weight (rather than optimised composition) contributes towards misunderstanding of quiddity obesity dispassionate societal perspective response global problem. objective this review provide overview transitions away from novel vista: viewing skeletal muscle (SM).

Importance Sarcopenia and obesity are 2 global concerns associated with adverse health outcomes in older people. Evidence on the population-based prevalence of combination sarcopenia (sarcopenic [SO]) its association mortality still limited. Objective To investigate SO their all-cause mortality. Design, Setting, Participants This large-scale, cohort study assessed participants from Rotterdam Study March 1, 2009, to June 2014. Associations were studied using Kaplan-Meier curves, Cox proportional hazards regression, accelerated failure time models fitted for sex, age, body mass index (BMI). Data analysis was performed January 1 April 2023. Exposures The SO, measured based handgrip strength composition (BC) (dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry) as recommended by current consensus criteria, probable defined having low confirmed altered BC (high fat percentage and/or appendicular skeletal muscle index) addition strength. Main Outcome Measure primary outcome mortality, collected linked data general practitioners central municipal records, until October 2022. Results In total population 5888 (mean [SD] 69.5 [9.1] years; mean BMI, 27.5 [4.3]; 3343 [56.8%] female), 653 (11.1%; 95% CI, 10.3%-11.9%) had 127 (2.2%; 1.8%-2.6%) sarcopenia. Sarcopenic component present 295 (5.0%; 4.4%-5.6%) components 44 (0.8%; 0.6%-1.0%). An increased risk observed (hazard ratio [HR], 1.29; 1.14-1.47) (HR, 1.93; 1.53-2.43). plus 1.94; 1.60-2.33]) or 2.84; 1.97-4.11) a higher than those without SO.

This narrative review aims to provide practical evidence-based recommendations for nutritional assessment, management, monitoring patients treated with AOMs. Prior treatment, clinicians can identify preexisting risk factors counsel their on recommended intakes protein, dietary fiber, micronutrients, fluids. During AOMs, ongoing facilitate early recognition management gastrointestinal symptoms or inadequate nutrient fluid intake.

Obesity is an important topic for the osteoarthritis (OA) scientific community. However, predominant use of body mass index (BMI) to define obesity in OA research associated with uncertainties and limitations. These include inability discern fat muscle mass, account sex-differences distribution, or identify adiposityrelated health impairments. A focus on BMI may influence weight bias clinical practice impact disparities access effective treatments. To ensure that our understanding approaches improve outcomes individuals at risk continues advance next decade, future will need consider alternative measures beyond identification align evolving science. researchers must be aware issues stigma work minimize negative generalizations based BMI.

Obesity is not a choice or result of lack willpower, but multifactorial, chronic, progressive, and relapsing disease. During menopause, hormonal body composition changes lead to greater visceral adiposity, that aggravates women’s health at cardiometabolic, mechanic mental level. Adiposity has been identified as an important modifier reproductive hormones. female midlife, obesity associated with menstrual cycle alterations (anovulatory cycles ending abnormal bleedings), menopausal symptoms including hot flashes, poor quality sleep, aches joint pain, genitourinary symptoms, reduced life. However, the relationships between weight, process, aging, hormone levels remain poorly understood. Women have increased risk thromboembolic disease when using menopause therapy (MHT), it probably main medical condition prescribe MHT. this depends on route type The use estrogen-only combined transdermal MHT does increase thrombotic event in women obesity.

SummarySarcopenic obesity (SO) is defined as the combination of excess fat mass (obesity) and low skeletal muscle function (sarcopenia). The identification classification factors related to SO would favor better prevention diagnosis. present article aimed (i) define a list with based on literature analysis, (ii) identify clinical conditions linked development from search (iii) evaluate their relevance potential research gaps by consulting an expert panel.From 4746 articles screened, 240 were selected for extraction associated SO. Factors classified according frequency in literature. Clinical also recorded. Then, they evaluated panel evaluation development. Experts suggested additional factors.Thirty-nine unique extracted papers eleven experts field. showed insulin resistance, dyslipidemia, lack exercise training, inflammation hypertension most frequent whereas ranked spontaneous physical activity, protein energy intakes, training aging important.Although presented some differences, this first could help patients at risk Further work needed confirm contribution among population overtime or randomized controlled trials demonstrate causality.
