Comorbidity results of an obesity center

The European Research Journal, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: unknown, P. 1 - 9

Published: Feb. 19, 2025

Objectives: Obesity is linked to numerous severe health conditions, including type 2 diabetes mellitus, heart disease, hypertension, and stroke. This study aimed compare metabolic parameters anthropometric measurements between male female patients with obesity identify gender-based differences in obesity-related markers. Methods: prospective enrolled 393 obese (52 male, 341 female) from an outpatient clinic. After overnight fast (8-10 hours), blood samples were collected assess a range of parameters: complete count, fasting glucose, insulin, Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), Aspartate aminotransferase (AST), Alanine (ALT), Thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), total cholesterol, triglycerides, Low-density lipoprotein (LDL), High-density (HDL), 25-hydroxy vitamin D3 (25OHD3), ferritin, iron, B12. Homeostatic Model Assessment Insulin Resistance (HOMA-IR) Body Mass Index (BMI) calculated, while soft lean mass (SLM) percent body fat (PBF) also analyzed. Results: Males had significantly higher levels HOMA-IR, 25OHD3, hemoglobin, hematocrit, urea, ALT compared females (P<0.05 for all). Conversely, males lower HDL platelet (P<0.05). The prevalence thyroid disease was (P=0.027). Conclusions: Thyroid males. Additionally, such as urea elevated females,

Experiencing weight stigma during childbirth increases the odds of cesarean birth

BMC Pregnancy and Childbirth, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 25(1)

Published: Feb. 21, 2025

Abstract Background Weight-biased clinical practices and institutional characteristics can have a wide impact on the quality of care provided to women with obesity. This may substantially increase their risks for poor birth outcomes. The current study assessed experienced weight stigma by during childbirth in maternity settings Switzerland. We aimed identify frequencies, sources, manifestations weight-related stigmatization, hypothesizing that such impacts outcomes, specifically cesarean (CB). Methods Data from nationwide cross-sectional online survey was used investigate childbirth. Binomial logistic regression applied predict CB stigma. Mediation analysis role association between body mass index (BMI) CB. Results In total 1352 who gave last five years, obesity (BMI ≥ 30 kg/m2) more often than peers healthy 18.5–24.9 kg/m2). Obstetricians were identified as major source stigma, accounting 77.8% stigmatization women, compared perceived nurses (21.7%) midwives (23.8%). Overall, mostly form dismissive or critical comments towards woman’s figure weight. Significantly indicated being blamed healthy-weighted (χ²(2) = 22.2, P < 0.001). An frequency related higher odds intrapartum ([aOR], 1.08; 95% CI, 1.02,1.15; 0.05), it partially mediated relationship increased pre-pregnancy BMI (b 0.07, SE 0.029; 0.05). Conclusion Women reported highest proportion childbirth, experiencing frequently without associated Raising awareness among healthcare providers reducing potential biases improve health outcomes

The shifting global landscape of low Back pain attributable to high body mass index: Burden, growth, and inequalities

Preventive Medicine Reports, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: unknown, P. 103031 - 103031

Published: March 1, 2025

Low back pain (LBP) is the leading global cause of years lived with disability (YLD), high body mass index (BMI) recognized as a significant and modifiable risk factor. While prior research has linked BMI to LBP, comprehensive assessments burden attributable are scarce. We analyzed data from Global Burden Disease (GBD) study (1990-2021) estimate regional YLDs LBP BMI, stratified by age, sex, socio-demographic (SDI). The Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA) model projected future 2050. From 1990 2021, nearly doubled, reaching 8.4 million (95 % uncertainty interval: 0.8-17.4), an age-standardized rate 97.7 per 100,000. Burdens rose across all regions, steepest increases in middle- lower-SDI areas. Women consistently experienced double compared men. High-income North America had largest YLD counts, while South Asia showed fastest growth. peaked among individuals aged 40-70, emerging 20-40 age group. Projections suggest disproportionate high- high-middle-SDI regions rising underscores urgent need for targeted public health strategies. Integrating management musculoskeletal initiatives into healthcare policies could mitigate LBP-related enhance population outcomes.
