Nintedanib is an approved therapy for idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). Some patients treated with nintedanib experience weight loss. Exploratory data suggest that low body mass index or weight loss are associated with worse outcomes in patients with IPF. We investigated whether BMI at baseline or weight loss over 52 weeks was associated with FVC decline, or influenced the effect of nintedanib, in patients with IPF. Using pooled data from the two INPULSIS trials, we analysed the rate of decline in FVC (mL/yr) over 52 weeks in patients treated with nintedanib and placebo in subgroups by baseline BMI (< 25; ≥25 to < 30; ≥30 kg/m2) and by weight loss over 52 weeks (≤5; > 5%) using random coefficient regression. In the placebo group, the mean rate of FVC decline over 52 weeks was numerically greater in patients with lower baseline BMI (− 283.3 [SE 22.4], − 207.9 [20.9] and − 104.5 [21.4] in patients with BMI < 25 kg/m2, ≥25 to < 30 kg/m2 and ≥ 30 kg/m2, respectively). Nintedanib reduced the rate of FVC decline versus placebo in all subgroups by BMI, with a consistent treatment effect across subgroups (interaction p = 0.31). In the placebo group, the mean rate of FVC decline was numerically greater in patients with > 5% than ≤5% weight loss over 52 weeks (− 312.7 [SE 32.2] versus − 199.5 [SE 14.4] mL/year). Nintedanib reduced the rate of FVC decline versus placebo in both subgroups by weight loss, with a greater treatment effect in patients with > 5% weight loss (interaction p = 0.0008). The adverse event profile of nintedanib was similar across subgroups. In patients with IPF, lower BMI and weight loss may be associated with faster decline in FVC. Nintedanib reduces the rate of FVC decline both in patients who lose weight on treatment and those who do not.

This study compared the serum lipid concentrations after a single dose of medium-chain triglycerides (MCT) or long-chain triglycerides (LCT) between individuals grouped according to the body mass index (BMI). Twenty-five males participated as volunteers, the test diet containing 10 g of MCT or LCT. Blood samples were collected up to 6 h after the intake of a test diets. The LCT diet resulted in significantly greater increases in areas under the curves (AUCs) for serum and chylomicron triglyceride in the BMI > or = 23 kg/m2 group than those in the BMI < 23 kg/m2 group. The magnitude of response after intake of the MCT diet by the BMI > or = 23 kg/m2 group was significantly lower than that after the LCT diet. These results suggest that, in subjects with BMI > or = 23 kg/m2, the intake of MCT is preferable to that of LCT for maintaining postprandial triglyceride at a low concentration. 相似文献

We have examined the relationship between artificially sweetened beverage (ASB) consumption and long-term weight gain in the San Antonio Heart Study. From 1979 to 1988, height, weight, and ASB consumption were measured among 5,158 adult residents of San Antonio, Texas. Seven to eight years later, 3,682 participants (74% of survivors) were re-examined. Outcome measures were incidence of overweight/obesity (OW/OB(inc)) and obesity (OB(inc)) (BMI > or = 25 and > or = 30 kg/m(2), respectively), and BMI change by follow-up (DeltaBMI, kg/m(2)). A significant positive dose-response relationship emerged between baseline ASB consumption and all outcome measures, adjusted for baseline BMI and demographic/behavioral characteristics. Consuming >21 ASBs/week (vs. none) was associated with almost-doubled risk of OW/OB (odds ratio (OR) = 1.93, P = 0.007) among 1,250 baseline normal-weight (NW) individuals, and doubled risk of obesity (OR = 2.03, P = 0.0005) among 2,571 individuals with baseline BMIs <30 kg/m(2). Compared with nonusers (+1.01 kg/m(2)), DeltaBMIs were significantly higher for ASB quartiles 2-4: +1.46 (P = 0.003), +1.50 (P = 0.002), and +1.78 kg/m(2) (P < 0.0001), respectively. Overall, adjusted DeltaBMIs were 47% greater among artificial sweetener (AS) users than nonusers (+1.48 kg/m(2) vs. +1.01 kg/m(2), respectively, P < 0.0001). In separate analyses--stratified by gender; ethnicity; baseline weight category, dieting, or diabetes status; or exercise-change category--DeltaBMIs were consistently greater among AS users. These differences, though not significant among exercise increasers, or those with baseline diabetes or BMI >30 kg/m(2) (P = 0.069), were significant in all 13 remaining strata. These findings raise the question whether AS use might be fueling--rather than fighting--our escalating obesity epidemic. 相似文献

The objectives of this study were to 1) identify the independent effects of exercise (aerobic or resistance training) and weight loss on whole body insulin sensitivity and 2) determine if aerobic or resistance training would be more successful for maintaining improved whole body insulin sensitivity 1 yr following weight loss. Subjects were 97 healthy, premenopausal women, body mass index (BMI) 27-30 kg/m(2). Following randomized assignment to one of three groups, diet only, diet + aerobic, or diet + resistance training until a BMI <25 kg/m(2) was achieved, body composition, fat distribution, and whole body insulin sensitivity were determined at baseline, in the weight reduced state, and at 1-yr follow up. The whole body insulin sensitivity index (S(I)) was determined using a frequently sampled intravenous glucose tolerance test. Results of repeated-measures ANOVA indicated a significant improvement in S(I) following weight loss. However, there were no group or group×time interactions. At 1-yr follow up, there were no significant time or group interactions for S(I;) however, there was a significant group×time interaction for S(I). Post hoc analysis revealed that women in the aerobic training group showed a significant increased S(I) from weight reduced to 1-yr follow up (P < 0.05), which was independent of intra-abdominal adipose tissue and %fat. No significant differences in S(I) from weight reduced to 1-yr follow up were observed for diet only or diet + resistance groups. Additionally, multiple linear regression analysis revealed that change in whole body insulin sensitivity from baseline to 1-yr follow up was independently associated with the change in Vo(2max) from baseline to 1-yr follow up (P < 0.05). These results suggest that long-term aerobic exercise training may conserve improvements in S(I) following weight loss and that maintaining cardiovascular fitness following weight loss may be important for maintaining improvements in S(I). 相似文献

Acute changes in dietary omega-3 fatty acid intake lowers soluble interleukin-6 receptor in healthy adult normal weight and overweight males 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
OBJECTIVE: To determine the effect of a short-term isocaloric exchange of alpha-linolenic acid (ALA, 18:3n3) for linoleic acid (LA, 18:2n6) on fasting levels of soluble interleukin-6 receptor (sIL6R), and soluble tumor necrosis factor-alpha receptors 1 and 2 (sTNFR1 and sTNFR2) in healthy normal weight and overweight/obese adult males. DESIGN: Four-day clinical intervention study with 0.5% or 5% of total energy from ALA. Fasting (10 h) blood samples were obtained on the morning of day 5 in both diet treatments to measure sTNFR1, sTNFR2, and sIL6R. SUBJECTS: Nine normal weight (BMI < 25 kg/m2) and seven overweight (BMI > or = 25 kg/m2) healthy males. RESULTS: Fasting sIL6R decreased significantly from the control (C) diet following four days on the high ALA isocaloric (ISO) diet in normal weight and overweight/obese subjects (normal weight: C = 34.89 +/- 3.17 ng/ml, ISO = 30.91 +/- 2.24 ng/ml, p < 0.05; overweight/obese: C = 38.19 +/- 3.92 ng/ml, ISO = 33.57 +/- 2.47 ng/ml, p , 0.05). The dietary intervention did not have a significant effect on fasting sTNFR1 or sTNFR2. CONCLUSIONS: The results suggest that an isocaloric exchange of ALA for LA can reduce fasting sIL6R concentration by approximately 11% after a four-day dietary intervention in both overweight/obese and normal weight subjects. The data also suggest that longer exposure to a similar diet may have the potential to reduce inflammatory burden and thus lower the risk of both cardiovascular disease as well as diabetes. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to evaluate midparental BMI among intergenerational factors associated with obesity in adult offspring. The data was from an unusual two-generational observational design of 1,477 married couples from Renfrew and Paisley in Scotland who were aged 45-64 years when screened in 1972-1976, and 1,040 sons and 1,298 daughters aged 30-59 years when screened in 1996. BMI was categorized as normal (< 25 kg/m(2)), overweight (25-29.9 kg/m(2)), and obese (> or = 30 kg/m(2)) in offspring and parents. Midparental BMI was defined as the mean of the mother's and father's BMI. Low physical activity, nonsmoking status, higher cholesterol level, and manual social class were all associated with increased BMI in offspring. The effect of reported dietary intake was less clear. Offspring of obese parents (defined by midparental BMI) were over four times more likely to be obese than offspring of normal weight parents. Midparental BMI had a strong effect on offspring BMI, independent of social class, smoking habit, physical activity, and reported dietary intake. Adding midparental BMI to the regression model more than doubled the explained variation of offspring BMI from 7.7 to 17%. Every 1 kg/m(2) increment in midparental BMI was associated with a BMI greater by 0.51 kg/m(2) in offspring. We conclude that midparental BMI is a useful simple tool to predict offspring BMI. Whether it represents genetic or environmental family effects, it is easily ascertained by the individual and could be used in health promotion and clinical settings to target individuals who are at increased risk of becoming obese. 相似文献

We aimed to estimate the association of BMI and risk of systemic hypertension in African-American females aged 65 years and older. In this retrospective, cross-sectional study, medical charts were randomly reviewed after obtaining institutional review board approval and data collection was conducted for height, weight, BMI, age, ethnicity, gender, and hypertension. A multivariable logistic regression analysis was performed. The mean BMI was significantly higher in hypertensive subjects than normotensives (30.3 vs. 29 kg/m2; P = 0.003). A higher proportion of hypertensive subjects had a BMI >23 kg/m2 as compared to normotensives (88.9% vs. 83.5%; P = 0.023). When the log odds of having a history of hypertension was plotted against BMI as a continuous variable, we found that the odds showed an increasing trend with increasing BMI and a steep increase after a BMI of 23 kg/m2. When BMI was analyzed as a categorical variable, a BMI of 23-30 kg/m2 was found to have an odds ratio of 1.43 (95% confidence interval 1.01-2.13; P = 0.05) and a BMI of >30 kg/m2 had an odds ratio of 1.76 (95% confidence interval 1.17-2.65; P = 0.007) when compared to a BMI of <23 kg/m2. This association remained significant in both univariate and multivariate analysis. We conclude that BMI is an independent predictor of hypertension in elderly African-American females. Our results indicate that the risk of hypertension increased significantly at BMI of >23 kg/m2 in this ethnic group. Weight reduction to a greater extent than previously indicated could play an integral role in prevention and control of high blood pressure in this particular population. 相似文献

The association between BMI and amputation risk is not currently well known. We used data for a cohort of diabetic patients treated in the US Department of Veterans Affairs Healthcare System in 2003. Men aged <65 years at the end of follow-up were examined for their amputation risk and amputation-free survival during the next 5 years (2004-2008). Compared to overweight individuals (BMI 25-29.9 kg/m(2)), the risks of amputation and treatment failure (amputation or death) were higher for patients with BMI <25 kg/m(2) and were lower for those with BMI ≥30 kg/m(2). Individuals with BMI ≥40 kg/m(2) were only half as likely to experience any (hazard ratios (HR) = 0.49; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.30-0.80) and major amputations (HR = 0.53; 95% CI, 0.39-0.73) during follow-up as overweight individuals. While the amputation risk continued to decrease for higher BMI, amputation-free survival showed a slight upturn at BMI >40 kg/m(2). The association between obesity and amputation risk in our data shows a pattern consistent with "obesity paradox" observed in many health conditions. More research is needed to better understand pathophysiological mechanisms that may explain the paradoxical association between obesity and lower-extremity amputation (LEA) risk. 相似文献

A hypocaloric diet enriched in legumes specifically mitigates lipid peroxidation in obese subjects 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Legume intake could specifically protect against lipid peroxidation in addition to the effects associated to weight loss when included in hypocaloric diets. Thus, 30 obese subjects (age: 36 +/- 8 years and BMI: 32.0 +/- 5.3 kg/m(2)) were nutritionally treated by a 8-week energy restriction ( - 30% energy expenditure) with a legume enriched diet (4 days/week servings, [image omitted] ) or without legumes (control diet (CD), [image omitted] ). Body weight, circulating cholesterol, oxidized LDL (ox-LDL), malondialdehyde (MDA) and urinary 8-isoprostane F(2alpha) (8-iso-PGF(2alpha)) were measured at baseline and at endpoint. After the nutritional intervention, all obese subjects lost weight, specially those individuals who followed the legumes-enriched diet as compared to the CD ( - 7.7 +/- 3 vs. - 5.3 +/- 2.7%; p = 0.023), which was accompanied by marked decreases in total cholesterol levels (p < 0.001) and statistically significant diet-related reductions on plasma ox-LDL, plasma MDA and urinary 8-iso-PGF(2alpha) output. Therefore, a balanced diet with moderate caloric restriction including 4 day/week legume servings empowered the oxidative stress improvement related to weight loss through a reduction in lipid peroxidation as compared to a control hypocaloric diet. 相似文献

Epidemiological studies suggest a protective influence of obesity against postmenopausal bone loss. Lower risk of osteoporotic fractures was described in obese patients. However there were only a few studies which examined the effect of weight reduction on bone metabolism and results of these studies are controversial. The aim of the study was to evaluate the influence of weight reduction program using Orlistat on bone metabolism in perimenopausal women. Twenty obese women with simple obesity and without concomitant diseases (BMI 37.1 +/- 3.0 kg/m2, mean age 49.8 +/- 4.6 yrs) were enrolled into this study. The control group consisted of 20 healthy women (mean age 53.5 +/- 5.4 yrs, BMI 24.1 +/- 2.2 kg/m2). All patients have participated in a 3-month weight reduction therapy that consisted of: a 1000-1200 kcal/ day balanced diet (daily calcium consumption about 500mg), Orlistat 3 x 120mg a day and regular physical exercises. Before the weight reduction therapy and after 10% reduction of body weight, serum concentrations of PTH, 25-(OH)-D3, total calcium and phosphorus, total cholesterol were assessed. Dual energy x-ray absorptiometry (DEXA method) of lumbar spine and femoral neck, measuring BMD was performed once, after a 3-month weight reduction therapy using Lunar DPXL. All these measurements were performed only once in control subjects. After a 3-month weight reduction program in patients treated with Orlistat the mean weight loss was 11.6 +/- 5.1 kg which is 12.1 +/- 4.78 %. BMI decreased from 37.1 +/- 3.0 kg/m2 at baseline to 32.6 +/- 2.7 kg/m2 post-treatment. The body weight reduction resulted in significant decrease of body fat and total cholesterol concentration. In obese subjects serum concentration of 25-(OH)-D3 was significantly lower and serum concentration of PTH was significantly higher in comparison to healthy controls, both before and after weight reduction therapy. Serum concentration of PTH, 25-(OH)-D3, total calcium and phosphorus did not change significantly after therapy with Orlistat. Conclusion: 3-month weight reduction program using Orlistat did not influence significantly bone metabolism. 相似文献

PEKKARINEN, TUULA, PERTTI MUSTAJOKI. Use of very low-calorie diet in preoperative weight loss: Efficacy and Safety. We report the efficacy of a very low-calorie diet (VLCD)-based weight reduction program in patients with morbid obesity whose elective surgery had been postponed because of being overweight. The safety of weight loss on the immune system will also be evaluated. Thirty patients (mean age, 50 years; weight, 125 kg; BMI, 44 kg/m2) were treated. The program consisted of a 7-week to 24-week VLCD period, supported by individual sessions with a therapist, and of a refeeding period of 1 month before surgery. Two patients discontinued, and the mean weight loss of the remaining 28 patients was 19. 6 kg (15% of initial weight). In 23 patients, weight loss was 10% or more of the initial weight. After weight loss, 15 patients underwent surgery, 4 patients did not need an operation, and the remaining 9 patients were not operated on for various reasons. The numbers of circulating leukocytes, neutrophils, basophils, monocytes, CD3+, CD4+, CD8+, and natural killer cells did not change significantly by the ninth week on VLCD or by the end of the program. However, there was a significant (p<0. 05) decrease in the immunoglobulinM serum concentration during the program. In conclusion, a VLCD program is suitable for preoperative weight reduction in morbid obesity and seems not to compromise the immune system. 相似文献

In the year 2000, 31% of women and 40% of men receiving outpatient care at Veteran Affairs (VA) medical facilities were overweight (BMI ≥25 and <30 kg/m(2)); 37.4% of women and 32.9% of men were obese (BMI ≥30 kg/m(2)). The purpose of the present study was to assess treatment effects of MOVE! Weight Management Program for Veterans by comparing the trajectory of change in weight postintervention (3, 6, and 12 months postenrollment) to a preintervention period (1, 3, and 5 years before enrollment). The sample consisted of 862 veterans participating in MOVE! at the Miami VA. All veterans participated in a 2-h Self-Management Support (SMS) session, which involved completion of a self-assessment questionnaire and a nutrition education group session. After completing SMS, veterans had the option of continuing with Supportive Group Sessions (SGS), which included 10-weekly group sessions led by a multidisciplinary team. Veterans served as their own controls in the analyses. Veterans gained 2 kg/year before enrolling in MOVE!. There were similar increases in weight across sex, racial/ethnic groups, and treatment condition. Weight for participants in SMS stabilized after enrollment whereas participants in SGS had an average weight loss of 1.6 kg/year. The preintervention slope for weight was significantly different from the postintervention slope, suggesting treatment effect. Findings from this study support the need for a lifestyle modification program such as MOVE! in primary care settings to assist overweight and obese patients in managing their weight. 相似文献

A retrospective cohort study using the data from The Health Improvement Network (THIN) database in the United Kingdom was conducted to examine the incidence rates of seizures across different BMI levels in the adult population aged ≥18 years. Poisson regression was used to examine the relationship between BMI and seizures. The overall incidence rate of seizures was found to be 31.2 cases per 100,000 person‐years. The incidence rate of seizures (cases per 100,000 person‐years) in obese patients (BMI ≥ 30 kg/m2) was 34.8 (95% confidence interval (CI), 23.1, 46.4), comparable to that in patients with normal weight (BMI between 18.5 and 24.9 kg/m2) (35.8, 95%CI (26.6, 44.9)). In contrast, underweight patients (<18.5 kg/m2) or extremely obese (≥40 kg/m2) patients tended to have higher incidence rates than those with normal weight. After adjustment for age, gender, and smoking status, compared to patients with normal weight, those who were underweight or extremely obese had a rate ratio (RR) for seizures of 1.6 (95%CI (0.7, 3.8)) and 1.7 (95%CI (0.7, 3.9)), respectively. To date, we have not found any study that examines the associations between BMI or obesity and seizures. In this study, the incidence rates of seizures in the extremely obese and underweight patients tended to be higher than that in the normal‐weight patients. 相似文献

We examined 5-year trends in BMI among obese primary care patients to determine whether obesity-related education such as nutrition counseling or a weight management program was associated with declines in BMI. Veterans with BMI ≥30 kg/m(2) and ≥1 primary care visits in fiscal year 2002 were identified from the Veterans Health Administration's (VHA) national databases. Outpatient visits from fiscal year 2002-2006 for nutrition counseling, exercise, or weight management were grouped into five categories varying in intensity and duration: (i) intense-and-sustained, (ii) intense-only, (iii) irregular, (iv) limited, and (v) no counseling. Generalized estimating equation assessed associations between obesity-related counseling and BMI trend (annual rate of BMI change fiscal year 2002-2006) among cohort members with complete race/ethnic data (N = 179,881). Multinomial logistic regression compared intensity and duration of counseling among patients whose net BMI increased or decreased by ≥10% vs. remained stable. Compared with patients receiving "intense-and-sustained" counseling, the BMI trend of those receiving "intense-only" or "irregular" counseling was not significantly different, but patients receiving "no counseling" or "limited counseling" had significantly higher rates of decreasing BMI (-0.12 and -0.08 BMI per year; P < 0.01, respectively). This was especially true for veterans in their 50-60s, compared with the oldest veterans who were most likely to lose weight. In contrast, younger veterans (18-35 years) were least likely to lose weight; their BMI tended to increase regardless of counseling intensity and duration. Enhanced efforts are needed to detect and combat increasing weight trajectories among veterans who are already obese, especially among those aged 18-35 who are at greatest risk. 相似文献

The present study attempted to understand the appropriateness of different body mass index (BMI) cut-off points in assessing obesity. Four hundred thirty adult Bengalee males with mean age 36.48 +/- 12.23 years (mean +/- SD) from West Bengal, India were studied. Height, weight and percent body fat were measured and BMI was derived following standard equation. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis demonstrated low sensitivity and high specificity of international (> or = 30 kg/m2) and proposed (> or = 25 kg/m2) BMI cut-off points in identifying individuals with obesity. Furthermore, these international and proposed BMI cut-off points also found to be in substantial misclassification to assess obesity as much as 32.09% and 17.44% respectively. However, based on ROC curve analysis, a BMI cut-off point of > or = 24 kg/m2 revealed optimal sensitivity (83.66%) and specificity (90.61%) and as well as less misclassification (11.86%) in assessing obesity among the adult Bengalee males. The present study accentuated that the international and proposed BMI cut-off points so far might not be appropriate in assessing obesity and on the other hand, lower BMI cut-off point (> or = 24 kg/m2) has relatively high sensitivity and specificity in assessing obesity as well. Therefore, the present study envisages the requirement of further lowering down of BMI cut-off point in assessing excess body fat in adult Bengalee males. 相似文献

We have studied the therapeutic effects of two different doses (30 mg and 60 mg, twice daily) of DL-fen-fluramine (DL-F) in, respectively, prepuberal (11–13 years old) and adolescent subjects (14–17 years old). Sixty-eight obese subjects were recruited for this study (22 boys, 36 girls, aged 10–17 years old) with body mass index ranging from 24.5 to 44.0 kg/m2, absolute weight ranging from 37.0 to 119.5 kg and % over IBW ranging from 122% to 260%. Results were compared to a placebo treated group of obese adolescent patients (n=17), 6 boys and 11 girls, aged 10–17 years old, BMI ranging from 26–44 kg/m2, absolute weight 53.1 to 96.5 kg, and with 129% to 253% over IBW. In the DL-F-treated subjects most patients (n=41) had a continuous weight loss during 12 months but 27 individuals were unable to lose any additional weight after the initial 6 months of the trial. Taken together 65% of all patients lost weight during DL-F treatment (12 months) whereas only 17.4% of the placebo group lost a significant (>10% BMI) amount of excess weight. Also the placebo group had a higher withdrawal rate (57%) as compared with the DL-F-treated group (24%). There was a significant (p<0.05) decrease of the mean & SD of the BMI (at 6 and 12 months of therapy). No significant change of the BMI was observed for control group. Minor adverse side effects consisted of a brief period of drowsiness and dry mouth. Our findings indicated that the continuous administration of DL-Fenfluramine might help obese adolescent subjects adhere to a diet and to maintain the weight loss achieved without major or harmful adverse effects . 相似文献

The independent effects of exercise and weight loss on markers of inflammation (MOI) in obese individuals have not been clearly characterized. The objectives of this study were to: (i) identify the independent effects of exercise and weight loss on MOI and (ii) determine whether changes in MOI were associated with changes in fat distribution. Subjects were 126 healthy, premenopausal women, BMI 27–30 kg/m2. They were randomized to one of three groups: diet only, diet + aerobic‐, or diet + resistance training until a BMI <25 kg/m2 was achieved. Fat distribution was measured with computed tomography, and body composition with dual‐energy X‐ray absorptiometry. Serum concentrations of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)‐α, soluble TNF receptor 1 (sTNF‐R1), soluble TNF receptor 2 (sTNF‐R2), C‐reactive protein (CRP), and interleukin (IL)‐6 were assessed. Results of repeated‐measures ANOVA indicated a significant effect of time on MOI, such that MOI decreased with weight loss. Results of mixed‐model analysis indicated that adjusting for intra‐abdominal adipose tissue (IAAT) and total fat mass explained the decreases in TNF‐α and sTNF‐R1, whereas only total fat mass explained the decreases in sTNF‐R2, IL‐6, and CRP. In conclusion, weight loss was associated with decreases in MOI. The effect of weight loss appeared to be mediated by changes in total fat mass or IAAT. Addition of exercise did not alter the response, suggesting that weight loss has a more profound impact for reducing MOI in overweight women than exercise. 相似文献

Objective: To investigate weight loss expectations (expected 1‐year BMI loss, dream BMI, and maximum acceptable BMI) in obese patients seeking treatment and to examine whether expectations differ by sex, weight, diet and weight history, age, psychological factors, and primary motivations for weight loss. Research Methods and Procedures: 1891 obese patients seeking treatment in 25 Italian medical centers (1473 women; age, 44.7 ± 11.0 years; BMI, 38.2 ± 6.5 kg/m2) were evaluated. Diet and weight history, weight loss expectations, and primary motivation for seeking treatment (health or improving appearance) were systematically recorded. Psychiatric distress, binge eating, and body image dissatisfaction were tested by self‐administered questionnaires (Symptom CheckList‐90, Binge Eating Scale, and Body Uneasiness Test). Results: In 1011 cases (53.4%), 1‐year expected BMI loss was ≥9 kg/m2, dream BMI was 26.0 ± 3.4 kg/m2 (corresponding to a 32% loss), and maximum acceptable BMI was 29.3 ± 4.4 kg/m2 (?23%). BMI and age were the strongest predictors of weight goals. Weight loss necessary to reach the desired targets was largely in excess of weight loss observed during previous dieting. Psychiatric distress, body dissatisfaction, and binge eating did not predict weight loss expectations. The primary motivation for weight loss was concern for future or present health; women seeking treatment to improve appearance had a lower grade of obesity, were younger, and had first attempted weight loss at a younger age. Discussion: Obese Italian patients had unrealistic weight loss expectations. There were significant disparities between patients’ perceptions and physicians’ weight loss recommendations of desirable treatment outcome. 相似文献

Obesity is characterized by chronic, low-grade, systemic inflammation, which, in turn, has been associated with anemia of chronic disease. We hypothesized that obesity may be associated with the features of anemia of chronic disease, including low hemoglobin concentration, low serum iron and transferrin saturation (TS), and elevated serum ferritin. We compared normal-weight to overweight and obese adult participants of the third National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey with respect to hemoglobin concentration and levels of serum iron, TS, and ferritin. Measured BMI was used to categorize participants into normal weight (BMI < 25 kg/m(2), n = 6,059), overweight (BMI 25 to <30 kg/m(2), n = 5,108), mildly obese (BMI 30 to <35 kg/m(2), n = 2,366), moderately obese (BMI 35 to <40 kg/m(2), n = 850), and severely obese (BMI > or = 40 kg/m(2), n = 465). After adjustment for age, gender, menstruation, race/ethnicity, education, alcohol consumption, smoking, blood donation, and dietary iron intake, serum ferritin was progressively higher with increasing BMI category, whereas serum iron and TS were progressively lower. However, compared to normal-weight persons, those in all other higher BMI categories did not have a significant change in hemoglobin concentration after adjustment for the above-mentioned confounders. Overweight and obesity were associated with changes in serum iron, TS, and ferritin that would be expected to occur in the setting of chronic, systemic inflammation. However, overweight and obese persons were not more likely to be anemic compared with normal-weight persons. 相似文献
