Several studies suggest that the hypothalamo-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis is exceedingly active in obese individuals. Experimental studies show that circulating free fatty acids (FFAs) promote the secretory activity of the HPA axis and that human obesity is associated with high circulating FFAs. We hypothesized that HPA axis activity is enhanced and that lowering of circulating FFAs by acipimox would reduce spontaneous secretion of the HPA hormonal ensemble in obese humans. To evaluate these hypotheses, diurnal ACTH and cortisol secretion was studied in 11 obese and 9 lean premenopausal women (body mass index: obese 33.5 +/- 0.9 vs. lean 21.2 +/- 0.6 kg/m(2), P < 0.001) in the early follicular stage of their menstrual cycle. Obese women were randomly assigned to treatment with either acipimox (inhibitor of lipolysis, 250 mg orally four times daily) or placebo in a double-blind crossover design, starting one day before admission until the end of the blood-sampling period. Blood samples were taken during 24 h with a sampling interval of 10 min for assessment of plasma ACTH and cortisol concentrations. ACTH and cortisol secretion rates were estimated by multiparameter deconvolution analysis. Daily ACTH secretion was substantially higher in obese than in lean women (7,950 +/- 1,212 vs. 2,808 +/- 329 ng/24 h, P = 0.002), whereas cortisol was not altered (obese 36,362 +/- 5,639 vs. lean 37,187 +/- 4,239 nmol/24 h, P = 0.912). Acipimox significantly reduced ACTH secretion in the obese subjects (acipimox 5,850 +/- 769 ng/24 h, P = 0.039 vs. placebo), whereas cortisol release did not change (acipimox 33,542 +/- 3,436 nmol/24 h, P = 0.484 vs. placebo). In conclusion, spontaneous ACTH secretion is enhanced in obese premenopausal women, whereas cortisol production is normal. Reduction of circulating FFA concentrations by acipimox blunts ACTH release in obese women, which suggests that FFAs are involved in the pathophysiology of this neuroendocrine anomaly. 相似文献

Objective:
This study compared BMD relative to body weight following a ~6‐month weight loss program and a 1‐year weight maintenance phase in premenopausal women and determined whether African American (AA) and European‐American (EA) women's BMD respond similarly during weight loss.Design and Methods:
Premenopausal women (n = 115, 34 ± 5 years) were evaluated in an overweight state (BMI between 27 and 30 kg/m2), following an 800 kcal/day diet/exercise program designed to reduce BMI<25 kg/m2, and 1‐year following weight loss.Results:
BMD relative to body weight (Z‐scores) increased after weight loss, but decreased during the 1‐year weight maintenance phase. All 1‐year follow‐up BMD Z‐scores were increased (except L1) compared to baseline measurements (P < 0.05). These sites included the hip neck (+0.088, P = 0.014), total hip (+0.099, P = 0.001), L2 (+0.127, P = 0.013), L3 (+0.135, P = 0.014), and L4 (+0.199, P = 0.002). AAs had significantly higher absolute BMD at all sites (P < 0.05) compared to EAs, but no time by race interactions were evident during weight loss (except in L3).Conclusion:
These results may indicate that weight loss is safe with regard to bone health for overweight premenopausal women. 相似文献3.
Objective: To conduct a clinical and economic evaluation of outpatient weight loss strategies in overweight and obese adult U.S. women. Research Methods and Procedures: This study was a lifetime cost‐use analysis from a societal perspective, using a first‐order Monte Carlo simulation. Strategies included routine primary care and varying combinations of diet, exercise, behavior modification, and/or pharmacotherapy. Primary data were collected to assess program costs and obesity‐related quality of life. Other data were obtained from clinical trials, population‐based surveys, and other published literature. This was a simulated cohort of healthy 35‐year‐old overweight and obese women in the United States. Results: For overweight and obese women, a three‐component intervention of diet, exercise, and behavior modification cost $12,600 per quality‐adjusted life year gained compared with routine care. All other strategies were either less effective and more costly or less effective and less cost‐effective compared with the next best alternative. Results were most influenced by obesity‐related effects on quality of life and the probabilities of weight loss maintenance. Discussion: A multidisciplinary weight loss program consisting of diet, exercise, and behavior modification provides good value for money, but more research is required to confirm the impacts of such programs on quality of life and the likelihood of long‐term weight loss maintenance. 相似文献

Adiponectin, an adipokine secreted by adipocytes, exerts beneficial effects on glucose and lipid metabolism and has been found to improve insulin resistance by decreasing triglyceride content in muscle and liver in obese mice. Adiponectin is found in several isoforms and the high-molecular weight (HMW) form has been linked most strongly to the insulin-sensitizing effects. Fat content in skeletal muscle (intramyocellular lipids, IMCL) and liver (intrahepatic lipids, IHL) can be quantified noninvasively using proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy ((1)H-MRS). The purpose of our study was to assess the relationship between HMW adiponectin and measures of glucose homeostasis, IMCL and IHL, and to determine predictors of adiponectin levels. We studied 66 premenopausal women (mean BMI 31.0 ± 6.6 kg/m(2)) who underwent (1)H-MRS of calf muscles and liver for IMCL and IHL, computed tomography (CT) of the abdomen for abdominal fat depots, dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) for fat and lean mass assessments, HMW and total adiponectin, fasting lipid profile and an oral glucose tolerance test (homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA(IR)), glucose and insulin area under the curve). There were strong inverse associations between HMW adiponectin and measures of insulin resistance, IMCL and IHL, independent of visceral adipose tissue (VAT) and total body fat. IHL was the strongest predictor of adiponectin and adiponectin was a predictor of HOMA(IR). Our study showed that in premenopausal obese women HMW adiponectin is inversely associated with IMCL and IHL content. This suggests that adiponectin exerts positive effects on insulin sensitivity in obesity by decreasing intracellular triglyceride content in skeletal muscle and liver; it is also possible that our results reflect effects of insulin on adiponectin. 相似文献

The adrenal steroid secretion was studied in 6 prepubertal obese boys and 6 obese boys at the first stage of sexual maturation according to Tanner. Twelve normal boys, closely matched for age and stage of sexual maturation, were also studied as controls. Pregnenolone and dehydroepiandrosterone plasma levels were found to be significantly (P less than 0.001) higher in both groups when compared with normal boys. All the values, apart from pregnenolone in the prepubertal group, returned to normal after weight loss. Progesterone was found significantly increased (P less than 0.001) in both groups and normal after weight loss. 17-OH-progesterone plasma levels showed no significant difference between the obese and control groups. Androstenedione was increased in the prepubertal group before and normal after weight loss; no significant difference was found in the other group. Testosterone and estradiol showed normal values in the two groups both before and after weight loss. Cortisol showed a similar pattern. It can be concluded that an increased cortico-adrenal activity is present in obese boys as already reported in obese girls. This finding could explain the precocious adrenarche which often occurs in these patients. The increased adrenal androgen secretion might be due to an increased cortico adrenal stimulating hormone secretion or to an enhanced adrenal sensitivity to this hypothetical hormone. 相似文献

Forward dynamic simulation of human movement has the potential to investigate the biomechanical effects of weight loss in obese individuals. However, guidelines for altering body segment inertial parameters (BSIPs) of a biomechanical model to approximate changes that occur with weight loss are currently unavailable. Therefore, the goal of this study was to quantify three-dimensional changes in BSIPs with weight loss. Nineteen Caucasian men of age 43.6+/-7.5 years (mean+/-standard deviation) were evaluated. Body mass and body mass index prior to weight loss were 102.7+/-3.6 kg and 32.6+/-3.2 kg/m2, respectively. Both before and after weight loss, magnetic resonance imaging scans were acquired along the length of the body to discriminate muscle, bone, organ, and adipose tissues. Segment masses, center of mass (COM) positions, and radii of gyration were determined from these scans using published tissue densities and established methods. A number of significant changes in BSIPs occurred with the 13.8+/-2.4% average weight loss. Mass decreased in all segments. COM position moved distally for the thigh and upper arm, superiorly for the trunk, and inferiorly for the whole body. Radius of gyration, in general, decreased in all segments. The changes in BSIPs with weight loss reported here could be used in forward dynamic simulations investigating the biomechanical implications of weight loss. 相似文献

In treatment of obesity restriction of food intake is necessary to achieve good results. Various operations have been devised to prevent patients overeating, but in this study jaw wiring was used to limit food intake. This procedure produces weight loss in obese patients but when the wires are removed the weight is usually regained. This report studied a group of patients whose weight loss was maintained after the wires were removed. A nylon cord fastened round the waist of the patient after weight reduction was found to act as a psychological barrier to weight gain. Seven patients were followed for 4-14 months after removal of jaw wires and regained a mean of only 5.6 kg of the 31.8 kg lost while their jaws were wired. This procedure compares favourably with other treatments for severe obesity. 相似文献

Objective: To assess the influence of weight reduction therapy on serum osteoprotegerin (OPG) concentration in obese patients and compare these results with normal‐weight controls. Research Methods and Procedures: Forty‐three obese women (BMI, 36.7 ± 4.1 kg/m2; mean age, 50.1 ± 4.5 years) were studied. The control group consisted of 19 normal‐weight women (BMI, 24.2 ± 2.1 kg/m2; mean age, 53.8 ± 5.2 years). In all patients, serum concentrations of OPG, C telopeptide of type I collagen containing the cross‐linking site (CTX), osteocalcin, parathormone, 25‐(OH)‐D3 (vitamin D), and total calcium and phosphorus were assessed before and after a 3‐month weight reduction therapy. Results: In obese subjects, serum concentrations of OPG, 25‐(OH)‐D3, osteocalcin, total calcium, and phosphorus were significantly lower, and serum concentration of parathormone was significantly higher, before weight reduction therapy in comparison with normal‐weight controls. After weight reduction, a significantly higher serum concentration of 25‐(OH)‐D3 and CTX and significantly lower concentration of OPG were found. Discussion: Serum concentration of OPG was significantly lower in obese patients in comparison with normal‐weight controls. Weight reduction therapy resulted in further decrease in OPG serum concentrations. Therefore, OPG cannot be treated as a protective factor from bone loss in obese patients. 相似文献

Objective: To investigate the effects of surgically induced weight loss on exercise capacity in patients with morbid obesity (MO). Research Methods and Procedures: A prospective 1‐year follow‐up study was carried out, with patients being their own controls. A symptom‐limited cardiopulmonary exercise stress test was performed in 31 MO patients (BMI > 40 kg/m2) before and 1 year after undergoing bariatric surgery. Results: At 1 year after surgery, weight was reduced from 146 ± 33 to 95 ± 19 kg (p < 0.001), and BMI went from 51 ± 4 to 33 ± 6 kg/m2 (p < 0.001). After weight loss, obese patients performed each workload with lower oxygen consumption, heart rate, systolic arterial pressure, and ventilatory volume (p < 0.001). This reduced energy expenditure allowed them to increase the duration of their effort test from 13.8 ± 3.8 to 21 ± 4.2 minutes (p < 0.001). Upon finishing the exercise, MO patients before surgery were able to reach only 83% of their age‐predicted maximal heart rate, and their respiratory exchange ratio was 0.87 ± 0.06. After weight loss, those values were 90% and 1 ± 0.08, respectively (p < 0.01). When we compared the peak O2 pulse corrected by fat free mass before and after surgery, no significant differences between the groups were found. Discussion: After surgically induced weight loss, MO patients markedly improved their exercise capacity. This is due to the fact that they were able to perform the external work with lower energy expenditure and also to increase cardiovascular stress, optimizing the use of cardiac reserve. There were no differences in cardiac function before and after surgery. 相似文献

Objective: Our objective was to assess the efficacy and safety of sibutramine with a low‐calorie diet (LCD) and commercial meal‐replacement product in achieving weight loss and weight‐loss maintenance in obese patients. Research Methods and Procedures: Eight U.S. centers recruited 148 obese patients for a 3‐month comprehensive weight‐loss therapy (Phase I) comprising daily sibutramine 10 mg + LCD (two Slim‐Fast meal‐replacement shakes, one low‐calorie meal; total kcal/d = 1200–1500). Patients (N = 113) who lost ≥5% of initial body weight during Phase I were randomized for a 9‐month period (Phase II) to daily sibutramine 15 mg + LCD (one meal‐replacement shake; two low‐calorie meals: total kcal/d ~1200–1500) or daily placebo + three low‐calorie meals (total kcal/d ~1200–1500). Both phases included behavior modification. Efficacy was assessed by body weight change during each phase and by the number of patients at endpoint maintaining ≥80% of the weight they had lost by the end of Phase I. Other outcomes included changes in cardiovascular and metabolic risk factors, adverse events, and vital signs. Results: Mean body weight change during Phase I was ?8.3 kg (p < 0.001). Patients randomized to sibutramine in Phase II had an additional ?2.5 kg mean weight loss vs. a 2.8‐kg increase in the placebo group (p < 0.001). More sibutramine patients maintained ≥80% of their Phase I weight loss at the end of Phase II (85.5% vs. placebo 36.7%, p < 0.001). Most adverse events were mild or moderate in severity, and all serious adverse events were unrelated to sibutramine. Discussion: Sibutramine plus LCD with meal replacements and behavior modification is a safe and effective strategy for achieving and sustaining weight loss in obese patients. 相似文献

Seasonal variations have been described in humans in several variables such as sleep, mood, appetite, food preferences, or body weight. We hypothesized that these variations could also influence the decrease in body weight rate in patients submitted to body weight loss interventions. Thus, here we tested the variations of weight loss according to the time of the year the surgery took place in a group patients (n = 1322) submitted to bariatric surgery in the Hospital Universitari de la Vall d’Hebron in Barcelona (geographical coordinates: 41°25?41″N 2°8?32″E). For the analysis, the percentage of total body weight loss (%TWL), excess body weight loss (%EWL) and percentage of body mass index loss (%BMIL) were calculated at 3 (n = 1255), 6 (n = 1172), 9 (n = 1002), and 12 months (n = 1076) after surgery. For %EWL and %BMIL a statistically significant seasonal variation was detected when the variables were calculated at 3 months, but not at the other times, with more weight loss in summer-fall. However, seasonal variations were not detected for %TWL (p = 0.09). The mean amplitude of the seasonal rhythm for %EWL was of 1.8%, while for the rhythm of %BMIL was 0.7%. Moreover, a second peak was detected in January–February modulating the seasonal rhythm of the two variables. Results confirm seasonal variations in humans and indicate that short term responses to weight loss can be modulated by the time of year. 相似文献

Among the factors influencing weight loss and maintenance, psychobehavioral, nutritional, metabolic, hormonal and hereditary predictors play an important role. Psychobehavioral factors influence adherence to lifestyle changes and thus weight loss maintenance. The outcome of short-term weight reduction treatment is mainly affected by changes in energy and nutrient intake and physical activity and thus the impact of hormones can possibly be obscured. In order to reveal hormonal determinants of weight loss, a 4-week in-patient comprehensive weight reduction program was introduced in which food intake and physical activity were under the strict control. Women (n = 67, BMI: 32.4+/-4.4 kg; age: 48.7+/-12.2 years) who exhibited stable weight on a 7 MJ/day diet during the first week of weight management were given a hypocaloric diet yielding daily energy deficit 2.5 MJ over the subsequent 3-week period. This treatment resulted in a mean weight loss of 3.80+/-1.64 kg. Correlation analysis revealed that baseline concentrations of several hormones were significantly associated either with a higher (free triiodothyronine, C-peptide, growth hormone, pancreatic polypeptide) or with a lower (insulin-like growth factor-I, cortisol, adiponectin, neuropeptide Y) reduction of anthropometric parameters in response to weight management. In a backward stepwise regression model age, initial BMI together with baseline levels of growth hormone, peptide YY, neuropetide Y and C-reactive protein predicted 49.8 % of the variability in weight loss. Psychobehavioral factors (items of the Eating Inventory, Beck Depression score) did not contribute to weight change induced by a well-controlled short-term weight reduction program. 相似文献

INTRODUCTION: The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of modest weight reduction on serum concentrations of tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha), TNF soluble receptors (sTNFRs) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) in obese women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). MATERIAL AND METHODS: The study group consisted of 15 obese women with PCOS (mean age 28.5 +/- 7.7 years). Serum concentrations of TNF-alpha, sTNFRs and IL-6, insulin, FSH, LH, DHEAS, androstendione, total and free testosterone, cortisol, 17OH-progesterone, oestradiol and sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG), glucose, total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol and triglycerides were measured before treatment and after 10% weight loss. All patients were advised to follow a 1000-1200 kcal diet with a limited intake of simple carbohydrate and animal fats and to exercise regularly (30 min, 3 times a week). Body composition was measured by bioimpedance. Serum concentrations of TNF-alpha, sTNFRs and IL-6 were determined by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Plasma insulin, FSH, LH, DHEAS, androstendione, total and free testosterone, cortisol, 17OH-progesterone, oestradiol and SHBG were measured by a commercial RIA. Blood glucose, total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol and triglycerides were measured by an enzymatic procedure. RESULTS: We observed no differences in serum concentrations of TNF-alpha, sTNFRs or IL-6 after treatment. CONCLUSIONS: It seems that more than a modest weight reduction is necessary to obtain a decrease in serum concentrations of proinflammatory cytokines and an improvement in ovarian function in obese women with polycystic ovary syndrome. 相似文献

Objective: It has been hypothesized that increased free insulin‐like growth factor (IGF)‐I levels generated from an increase in IGF‐binding protein (IGFBP) protease activity could be the inhibitory mechanism for the decreased growth hormone (GH) secretion observed in obese subjects. Research Methods and Procedures: In this study, we determined basal and 24‐hour levels of free IGF‐I and ‐II, total IGF‐I and ‐II, IGFBP‐1, as well as basal IGFBP‐2, ?3, and ?4, acid‐labile subunit (ALS), IGFBP‐1, ?2, and ?3 protease activity, and 24‐hour GH release in obese women before and after a diet‐induced weight loss. Sixteen obese women (age, 29.5 ± 1.4 years) participated in a weight loss program and 16 age‐matched non‐obese women served as controls. Results: Circulating free IGF‐I and 24‐hour GH release were significantly decreased in obese women at before weight loss compared with non‐obese women (1.29 ± 0.12 vs. 0.60 ± 0.09 μg/L; p < 0.001 and 862 ± 90 vs. 404 ± 77 mU/24 hours; p < 0.001, respectively). Free IGF‐I and 24‐hour GH release were not inversely correlated to each other. IGFBP‐1 and ?2 levels were decreased, whereas ALS, IGFBP‐3 and ?4, and IGFBP‐1, ?2, and ?3 protease activity were similar in obese and non‐obese women. Eight of the 16 obese women achieved an average weight loss of 30 ± 5 kg during 26 to 60 weeks of dieting. After the considerable weight loss, significant differences in free IGF‐I, GH release, and IGFBP‐1 and ?2 levels were no longer present between previously obese and non‐obese women. Discussion: We showed that circulating free IGF‐I is markedly decreased in severely obese women and does not per se mediate the concomitant hyposomatotropism. The decreased levels of free IGF‐I seem to be transient and restored to normal levels after weight loss. 相似文献

We sought to evaluate the effect of weight loss on echocardiographic epicardial fat thickness, as index of visceral adiposity, and whether epicardial fat change after the weight loss can be proportionally different from overall body weight changes and related to cardiac parameters changes in severely obese subjects. This was an interventional study in 20 severely obese subjects (12 women, 8 men, BMI 45+/-5 kg/m(2), 35+/-10 years) who underwent 6-month very low calorie diet weight loss program. Baseline and after 6-month weight loss anthropometrics, echocardiographic epicardial fat thickness, left ventricular mass (LVM), and diastolic function parameters were assessed. Subjects lost 20% of original body weight, BMI reduced by 19% of original BMI, waist circumference decreased by 23% of initial waist circumference. Epicardial fat thickness decreased from 12.3+/-1.8 to 8.3+/-1 mm P<0.001 after the 6-month very low calorie diet, as -32% of baseline epicardial fat thickness. LVM and diastolic function changes were better correlated with epicardial fat changes. We showed that significant weight loss can be associated with significant reduction in the epicardial fat thickness, marker of visceral adiposity in severely obese subjects. Epicardial fat decrease, therefore visceral fat decrease, can be proportionally higher than overall adiposity decrease. Epicardial fat changes are significantly associated with obesity-related cardiac morphological and functional changes during weight loss. Measurement of echocardiographic epicardial fat thickness may provide an additional tool in understanding the metabolic risk associated with variation in fat distribution. 相似文献

We measured whole body and regional lipolytic and adipose tissue blood flow (ATBF) sensitivity to epinephrine in 8 lean [body mass index (BMI): 21 +/- 1 kg/m(2)] and 10 upper body obese (UBO) women (BMI: 38 +/- 1 kg/m(2); waist circumference >100 cm). All subjects underwent a four-stage epinephrine infusion (0.00125, 0.005, 0.0125, and 0.025 microgram. kg fat-free mass(-1). min(-1)) plus pancreatic hormonal clamp. Whole body free fatty acid (FFA) and glycerol rates of appearance (R(a)) in plasma were determined by stable isotope tracer methodology. Abdominal and femoral subcutaneous adipose tissue lipolytic activity was determined by microdialysis and (133)Xe clearance methods. Basal whole body FFA R(a) and glycerol R(a) were both greater (P < 0.05) in obese (449 +/- 31 and 220 +/- 12 micromol/min, respectively) compared with lean subjects (323 +/- 44 and 167 +/- 21 micromol/min, respectively). Epinephrine infusion significantly increased FFA R(a) and glycerol R(a) in lean (71 +/- 21 and 122 +/- 52%, respectively; P < 0.05) but not obese subjects (7 +/- 6 and 39 +/- 10%, respectively; P = not significant). In addition, lipolytic and ATBF sensitivity to epinephrine was blunted in abdominal but not femoral subcutaneous adipose tissue of obese compared with lean subjects. We conclude that whole body lipolytic sensitivity to epinephrine is blunted in women with UBO because of decreased sensitivity in upper body but not lower body subcutaneous adipose tissue. 相似文献
