Obesity is defined as a medical condition of excess body fat accumulated overtime, while overweight is a condition of excess body weight relatively to the height. According to the Body Mass Index(BMI), a BMI between 25 to 29.9 is considered over weight, while a BMI of over 30 is an indication of obesity. According to the statistic, 68% of American population are either overweight or obese.

Colon Cancer or colorectal cancer is defined as a condition of the abnormal proliferation of cells in the large bowel which consist the the colon and rectum, is involved in absorption of water from the small bowel contents and broken down of certain materials in the feces into substances of which some of them to be re absorbed and reused by the body. Colon cancer is relatively very common and slowly growing and progress cancer and in predictable way.

How do calculate your BMI index
BMI= weight (kg)/ height (m2)

How Obesity associates with Colon Cancer
1. According to the study of "Colon cancer: a civilization disorder" by Watson AJ, Collins PD. (Source from Norwich Medical School, University of East Anglia, Norwich, UK. alastair.watson@uea.ac.uk, Copyright © 2011 S. Karger AG, Basel), posted in PubMed, researchers indicated in abstract that A number of these risk factors are associated with a Western lifestyle and could be considered a product of 'civilization'. Recently, smoking has been recognized as a risk factor. Energy consumption also influences colorectal cancer risk, with obesityincreasing risk and exercise reducing risk. However, the strongest contribution to environmental risk for colorectal cancer is dietary. Consumption of fat, alcohol and red meat is associated with an increased risk. Fresh fruit and vegetables and dietary fibre may be protective. Much has been learnt recently about the molecular pathogenesis of colorectal cancer.

2. In a study of "Obesity and familial obesity and risk of cancer" by Hemminki K, Li X, Sundquist J, Sundquist K. (Source from Division of Molecular Genetic Epidemiology, German Cancer Research Center (DKFZ), Heidelberg, Baden-Württemberg, Germany.k.hemminki@dkfz.de, Eur J Cancer Prev. 2011 Sep;20(5):438-43.), posted in PubMed, researchers found that Family history ofobesity was associated with formerly unrecognized increased risks of gallbladder and colon cancers and ocular melanoma. Cancer risks in this relatively young obese population differed quantitatively from those found after type 2 diabetes.

3. In an abstract of the study of "Body mass index influences long-term outcome in patients with colorectal cancer" by Shibakita M, Yoshimura H, Tachibana M, Ueda S, Nagasue N. (Source from
Department of Surgery, Kawasaki Hospital, Higashiyama-cho 3-3-1, Hyogo-ku, Kobe, Hyogo 652-0042, Japan. shibakita_muneaki@kawasaki-hospital-kobe.or.jp, Hepatogastroenterology. 2010 Jan-Feb;57(97):62-9), posted in PubMed, researchers found that both high and low BMI became independent prognostic factors of disease recurrence in patients with colorectal carcinoma, as low BMI was correlated with tumor progression and high BMI influenced the number of lymph node dissected.

4. in a study of "Body size, weight change, and risk of colon cancer" by Bassett JK, Severi G, English DR, Baglietto L, Krishnan K, Hopper JL, Giles GG.(Source from Cancer Epidemiology Centre, Cancer Council Victoria, Carlton, Victoria, Australia. julie.bassett@cancervic.org.au, Cancer Epidemiol Biomarkers Prev. 2010 Nov;19(11):2978-86. Epub 2010 Sep 24.), posted in PubMed, researchers found that Adult weight change was positively associated with coloncancer risk for men (HR, 1.11 per 5-kg increment; 95% CI, 1.03-1.20), but not women (HR, 1.00; 95% CI, 0.94-1.07). Men who gained ≥20 kg from age 18 had an increased risk of colon cancer compared with men whose weight was stable (HR, 1.47; 95% CI, 0.94-2.31) and concluded that
Weight gain during adult life increases men's risk of colon cancer.

 Treatments of Obesity and Colon Cancer
1. according to the abstract of the study of " Colorectal cancer screening and prevention in women" by Krishnan S, Wolf JL. (Source from Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, 330 Brookline Avenue, Boston, MA 02215, USA, Womens Health (Lond Engl). 2011 Mar;7(2):213-26), posted in PubMed, researchers stated that new studies have shown other factors such as obesity and smoking to increase the risk of CRC in women. This article highlights issues unique to women with regards to CRC and outlines special considerations for determining screening intervals in women, identifies factors that make screening more difficult in women, and reviews studies that identify preventative strategies which, together with screening, may reduce the burden of CRC.

2. According to the study of "Diet-induced weight loss reduces colorectal inflammation: implications for colorectal carcinogenesis" by Pendyala S, Neff LM, Suárez-Fariñas M, Holt PR. (Source from Clinical and Translational Science Center, The Rockefeller University, New York, NY 10065, USA., Am J Clin Nutr. 2011 Feb;93(2):234-42. Epub 2010 Dec 8.), posted in PubMed, researchers found that Our data show that diet-induced weight loss in obese individuals reduces colorectal inflammation and greatly modulates inflammatory and cancer-related gene pathways. These data imply that obesity is accompanied by inflammation in the colorectal mucosa and that diet-induced weight loss reduces this inflammatory state and may thereby lower CRC risk.

3. According to the study of "Diet and colorectal cancer: implications for the obese and devotees of the Atkins diet" by Fleming ME, Sales KM, Winslet MC. (Source from University Department of Surgery, Royal Free and University College Medical School, Royal Free Hospital, London, UK, Colorectal Dis. 2005 Mar;7(2):128-32.), posted in PubMed, researchers indicated that Obesity has been demonstrated to be a major factor in the increase in CRC although links to changes in diet are more tenuous. Published studies on diet suggest the Atkins diet may help reduce rather than increase the risk of CRC.

Obesity is defined as a medical condition of excess body fat accumulated overtime, while overweight is a condition of excess body weight relatively to the height. According to the Body Mass Index(BMI), a BMI between 25 to 29.9 is considered over weight, while a BMI of over 30 is an indication of obesity. According to the statistic, 68% of American population are either overweight or obese.

Prostate cancer is defined as a condition in which the cells of prostate has become cancerous, causing abnormal cell growth which spread to the distant parts of the body. Most prostate cancers are slow growing and enlarged prostate and prostate cancer may be detected during the Physical (rectum) exams. For more information of prostate cancer, visit
http://thecancerhealingguide.blogspot.com/2011/06/most-common-types-of-cancer-prostate.html

Prostate enlargement is defined as condition of increasing of the levels of the by-product prolactin of testosterone of men, that stimulates the production of the enzyme 5-alpha reductase that causes the conversion of testosterone to gihydro-testosterones DHT, triggering prostate enlargement and other problems. Therefore in order to prevent the symptoms of enlarged prostate is to naturally impend the conversion of testosterone to DHT.

How do calculate your BMI index
BMI= weight (kg)/ height (m2)

How Obesity associates with Prostate Cancer
1. According to the abstract of the study of "Abdominal obesity as risk factor for prostate cancer diagnosis and high grade disease: A prospective multicenter Italian cohort study" by De Nunzio C, Albisinni S, Freedland SJ, Miano L, Cindolo L, Finazzi Agrò E, Autorino R, De Sio M, Schips L, Tubaro A. Source from Urol Oncol. 2011 Sep 16. [Epub ahead of print]), posted in PubMed, researchers indicated that Obesity defined by BMI and WC seems to be associated with CaP and, more specifically, with high-grade disease at the time of biopsy. The relationship between obesity and CaP is complex and remains to be further addressed.

2. In a study of "Metabolic syndrome is associated with high grade gleason score when prostate cancer is diagnosed on biopsy" by De Nunzio C, Freedland SJ, Miano R, Trucchi A, Cantiani A, Carluccini A, Tubaro A. (Source from Department of Urology, Ospedale Sant'Andrea, University "La Sapienza," Roma, Italy. cosimodenunzio@virgilio.it. Copyright © 2011 Wiley-Liss, Inc.), posted in PubMed, the result indicated that one hundred ninety five patients were enrolled with a median age and PSA of 69 years and 5.6 ng/ml respectively. Median BMI was 27.6 kg/m(2) with 64 patients (33%) being classified as obese (BMI ≥ 30 kg/m(2) ). Eighty-six patients (44%) had MS. Eighty-three patients (43%) had cancer on biopsy; 37 (45%) with MS and 46 (55%) without (P = 0.48). PSA was independently associated with higher risk of cancer (OR 1.12/1 U PSA, P = 0.01). Out of 83 patients with prostate cancer, 42 (51%) had Gleason score 6 (12 (28.5%) presented a MS) and 41 (49%) a Gleason score ≥7 (25 (61%) presented a MS). The presence of MS was not associated with an increased risk prostate cancer (OR: 0.97, P = 0.94) but with an increased risk of Gleason ≥7 (OR: 3.82; P = 0.013).

3. In an abstract of athe study of "Body mass index in early and middle-late adulthood and risk of localised, advanced and fatal prostate cancer: a population-based prospective study" byDiscacciati A, Orsini N, Andersson SO, Andrén O, Johansson JE, Wolk A. (Source from Division of Nutritional Epidemiology, Institute of Environmental Medicine, Karolinska Institutet, Box 210, 171 77, Stockholm, Sweden. Br J Cancer. 2011 Aug 16. doi: 10.1038/bjc.2011.319. [Epub ahead of print]), posted in PubMed, researchers found that a dual association between BMI and fatal PCa - a decreased risk among men who were obese during early adulthood and an increased risk among those who were obese during middle-late adulthood.British Journal of Cancer advance online publication, 16 August 2011; doi:10.1038/bjc.2011.319 www.bjcancer.com.

4. According to the abstarct of study of "Prospective study of adiposity and weight change in relation to prostate cancer incidence and mortality" by Wright ME, Chang SC, Schatzkin A, Albanes D, Kipnis V, Mouw T, Hurwitz P, Hollenbeck A, Leitzmann MF. (Source from Division of Cancer Epidemiology and Genetics, National Cancer Institute, National Institutes of Health, Department of Health and Human Services, Bethesda, Maryland, USA. mewright@uic.edu, Cancer. 2007 Feb 15;109(4):675-84.), posted in PubMed, researchers concluded that Although adiposity was not related positively to prostate cancer incidence, higher BMI and adult weight gain increased the risk of dying from prostate cancer.

5. According to a study of "Is obesity a risk factor for prostate cancer, and does it even matter? A hypothesis and different perspective" by Moyad MA. (Source from Department of Urology, University of Michigan Medical Center, Ann Arbor, Michigan 48109-0330, USA. moyad@umich.edu, Urology. 2002 Apr;59(4 Suppl 1):41-50), posted in PUbMed, researchers found that The 2 largest prospective studies on BMI and overall mortality have also demonstrated the substantial negative impact of excess weight on society. Prostate cancer risk and obesity need further research to establish if a true association exists, but at this time, does it really matter? Overall, the profound adverse effect of being obese on general health is dramatic, and this is what clinicians and patients need to remember.

6. In abstract of study of "Inverse correlation between body mass index and clinical outcomes in men with advanced castration-recurrent prostate cancer" by Halabi S, Ou SS, Vogelzang NJ, Small EJ. (Source from Department of Biostatistics and Bioinformatics, Duke University, Durham, North Carolina 27705, USA. susan.halabi@duke.edu, Cancer. 2007 Oct 1;110(7):1478-84.), posted in PubMed, researchers indicated that Approximately 24% of the patients had a normal BMI, 43% were overweight, and 33% were mildly to severely obese. On multivariable analysis, BMI was found to be a statistically significant predictor of overall survival and prostate cancer-specific mortality. Compared with men with normal BMIs, the hazard ratios for death for overweight men and mildly to severely obese men were 0.80 (95% confidence interval [95% CI], 0.68-0.93; P = .001) and 0.80 (95% CI, 0.68-0.94; P = .010), respectively.

7. Etc.

 Treatment of Obesity and Prostate Cancer
1. According to the study of "Obesity and sex steroids during gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist treatment for prostate cancer" by Smith MR. (Source from Division of Hematology and Oncology, Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston, Massachusetts 02114, USA. smith.matthew@mgh.harvard.edu, Clin Cancer Res. 2007 Jan 1;13(1):241-5.), posted in PubMed, researcher concluded in abstract that Despite lower pretreatment serum testosterone levels, obese men have higher total and free testosterone levels during leuprolide treatment than men with normal BMI. These differences may contribute to the association between obesity and increased prostate cancer mortality.

2. In a study of " Influence of obesity on the incidence and treatment of genitourinary malignancies" by Stewart SB, Freedland SJ. (Source, from Division of Urologic Surgery and Duke Prostate Center, Department of Surgery, Duke University Medical Center, Durham, NC 27710, USA, Copyright © 2011 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved), posted in PubMed, researchers stated that Obesity appears to promote an increased risk of aggressive prostate cancer (CaP). This may be related, in part, to a detection bias found in obese men. Worse surgical and radiation treatment outcomes in the obese appear to be related not only to technical challenges, but also inherent tumor biology differences and more aggressive disease presentations.

3. According to the abstract of the study of "The impact of obesity on the incidence and treatment of gynecologic cancers: a review" by Modesitt SC, van Nagell JR Jr. (Source from Gynecologic Oncology Division, Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, University of Kentucky Chandler Medical Center, Lucille Markey Cancer Center, 800 Rose Street, Lexington, KY 40536-0298, USA. smode2@uky.edu, Obstet Gynecol Surv. 2005 Oct;60(10):683-92), posted in Pubmed, researchers indicated that there is no current consensus regarding appropriate chemotherapy dosing in the obese patient. Obesity is a serious health problem with significant effects on the incidence and treatment of the gynecologic malignancies. TARGET AUDIENCE: Obstetricians & Gynecologists, Family Physicians. LEARNING OBJECTIVES: After completion of this article, the reader should be able to summarize the clear evidence that obesity is a risk factor for many cancers, including gynecologic malignancies; describe the role of unopposed estrogen in gynecologic cancers; and explain that obese women overall have a poorer survival rate when afflicted with cancer.

Obesity Complication of Poor Healing of Wounds

Obesity is defined as a medical condition of excess body fat accumulated overtime, while overweight is a condition of excess body weight relatively to the height. According to the Body Mass Index(BMI), a BMI between 25 to 29.9 is considered over weight, while a BMI of over 30 is an indication of obesity. According to the statistic, 68% of American population are either overweight or obese.

Poor Healing of Wounds are defined as a condition of the inability of the body to heal the wound quickly. It may be caused by the physical state of the wound or certain health effects, such as obesity, diabetes, abnormal coagulation. etc.

How do calculate your BMI index
BMI= weight (kg)/ height (m2)

How Obesity associates with Poor Healing of Wounds
1. According to the study of "Dysfunctional γδ T Cells Contribute to Impaired Keratinocyte Homeostasis in Mouse Models of Obesity" by Taylor KR, Costanzo AE, Jameson JM. (Source from Department of Immunology and Microbial Science, The Scripps Research Institute, La Jolla, California, USA.,J Invest Dermatol. 2011 Aug 11. doi: 10.1038/jid.2011.241. [Epub ahead of print]), posted in PubMed,, researchers found that These studies reveal that γδ T cells are unable to regulate keratinocyte homeostasis in obesity and that the obese environment further impairs skin structure by altering cell-cell adhesion. Together, impaired keratinocyte homeostasis and epidermal barrier function through direct and indirect mechanisms result in susceptibility to skin complications, chronicwounds, and infection.

2. In a study of "Gammadelta T cells are reduced and rendered unresponsive by hyperglycemia and chronic TNFalpha in mouse models of obesity and metabolic disease" by Taylor KR, Mills RE, Costanzo AE, Jameson JM. (Source from Department of Immunology and Microbial Science, The Scripps Research Institute, La Jolla, California, United States of America, PLoS One. 2010 Jul 2;5(7):e11422.), posted in PubMed, researchers filed in abstract that Skin gammadelta T cells that overcome this hyperglycemic state are unresponsive to epithelial cell damage due to chronic inflammatory mediators, including TNFalpha. Cytokine and growth factor production at the site of tissue damage was partially restored by administering neutralizing TNFalpha antibodies in vivo. Thus, metabolic disease negatively impacts homeostasis and functionality of skin gammadelta T cells, rendering host defense mechanisms vulnerable to injury and infection.

3. In an abstract of the study of "Wound healing in mice with high-fat diet- or ob gene-induced diabetes-obesity syndromes: a comparative study" by Seitz O, Schürmann C, Hermes N, Müller E, Pfeilschifter J, Frank S, Goren I.(Source from Pharmazentrum Frankfurt/ZAFES, Institut für Allgemeine Pharmakologie und Toxikologie, Klinikum der Johann Wolfgang Goethe-Universität, Theodor-Stern-Kai 7, 60590 Frankfurt am Main, Germany), posted inPubMed, researchers found that by contrast to impaired wound conditions in ob/ob mice, late wounds of HFD mice did not develop a chronic inflammatory state and were epithelialized after 11 days of repair. Thus, only genetically obese and diabetic ob/ob mice finally developed chronic wounds and therefore represent a better suited experimental model to investigate diabetes-inducedwound healing disorders.

4. According to the study of "Impaired Laparotomy Wound Healing in Obese Rats" by Xing L, Culbertson EJ, Wen Y, Robson MC, Franz MG. (Source from Department of Surgery, University of Michigan, 2124F Taubman Center, 1500 East Medical Center Drive, Ann Arbor, MI, 48109-0331, USA), posted inPubMed, researchers indicated that laparotomy wound healing is impaired in obese rats. The recovery of laparotomy wound strength is delayed due to abnormal collagen maturation and remodeling, possibly due to a defect in fibroblast function. Strategies to improve outcomes for laparotomy wound healingin obese patients should include correcting the wound healing defect, possibly with growth factor or cell therapy.

5. Etc.

Treatments of Obesity and Poor Healing of Wounds
1. According to the abstract of the study of "Zucker diabetic fatty rat: a new model of impaired cutaneous wound repair with type II diabetes mellitus and obesity" by Slavkovsky R, Kohlerova R, Tkacova V, Jiroutova A, Tahmazoglu B, Velebny V, Rezačová M, Sobotka L, Kanta J. (Source from Laboratory of Wound Healing, CPN, Dolni Dobrouc, Czech Republic. rastik@gmail.com, Wound Repair Regen. 2011 Jul;19(4):515-25. doi: 10.1111/j.1524-475X.2011.00703.x. Epub 2011 Jun 7.), posted in PubMed, researcher indicated that The concentration of hydroxyproline in the GT of diabetic animals was significantly decreased to about one half when compared with the nondiabetic controls. The expression of interleukin-6, myeloperoxidase, stromelysin-1, and collagenase-3 was increased in the GT of diabetic rats on Day 10, while the expression of type I collagen and elastin was decreased. Taken together, Zucker diabetic fatty rats exhibited impairments in wound-size reduction, inflammatory response, tissue organization, and connective tissue turnover and are thus proposed as a new model for studying impaired repair.

2. According to the study of "Systemically and topically supplemented leptin fails to reconstitute a normal angiogenic response during skin repair in diabetic ob/ob mice" by Stallmeyer B, Pfeilschifter J, Frank S. (Source from Centre of Pharmacology, University Hospital, Johann Wolfgang Goethe University, Frankfurt am Main, Germany), posted in PubMed, researchers filed in abstracted that These data suggest that leptin reconstituted epithelial expression of VEGF during skin repair in ob/ob mice but failed to improve wound angiogenesis in the granulation tissue. Thus, the accelerated wound closure observed in leptin-supplemented ob/ob mice is not coupled to an improved wound angiogenesis.

Obesity is defined as a medical condition of excess body fat accumulated overtime, while overweight is a condition of excess body weight relatively to the height. According to the Body Mass Index(BMI), a BMI between 25 to 29.9 is considered over weight, while a BMI of over 30 is an indication of obesity. According to the statistic, 68% of American population are either overweight or obese.

Infertility is defined as a condition of the female partner who can not get pregnant after 12 months of unprotected sexual intercourse.
How do calculate your BMI indexBMI= weight (kg)/ height (m2)

How obesity associates with Infertility
1. Hormonal effects
In a study of " Body mass index in relation to semen quality, sperm DNA integrity, and serum reproductive hormone levels among men attending an infertility clinic." by Chavarro JE, Toth TL, Wright DL, Meeker JD, Hauser R. (Source from Channing Laboratory, Department of Medicine, Brigham and Women's Hospital and Harvard Medical School, Boston, Massachusetts, USA. jchavarr@hsph.harvard.edu, Copyright 2010 American Society for Reproductive Medicine. Published by Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.), posted in PubMed, using the Standard semen analysis, sperm DNA fragmentation, and serum levels of reproductive hormones, researchers found that despite major differences in reproductive hormone levels with increasing body weight, only extreme levels ofobesity may negatively influence male reproductive potential.

2. Sperm concentration and total sperm count
According to the study of " Is overweight a risk factor for reduced semen quality and altered serum sex hormone profile?" by Aggerholm AS, Thulstrup AM, Toft G, Ramlau-Hansen CH, Bonde JP. (Source from Department of Occupational Medicine, Aarhus University Hospital, Aarhus, Denmark. ansag@as.aaa.dk), posted in PubMed, researchers found that The T and inhibin B serum concentrations were 25%-32% lower in obese men in comparison with normal-weight men, whereas the E(2) concentration was 6% higher in obese men. Overweight men (BMI, 25.1-30.0 kg/m(2)) had a slightly lower adjusted sperm concentration and total sperm count than did men with a normal BMI (20.0-25.0 kg/m(2)), but no reduction in sperm count was observed among the obese men and suggested that that overweight and obese men have a markedly changed sex hormone profile in serum, whereas reduction of semen quality, if any, was marginal and below the detection limit of this large study.

3. Egg quality
In a stidu of " The impact of obesity on egg quality" by Purcell SH, Moley KH.(Source from Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Washington University in St. Louis, 660 South Euclid Ave., St. Louis, MO, 63110, USA), posted in PubMed, researchers found that Both oocyte maturation and metabolism are impaired due to obesity, negatively impacting further development. In addition to reproductive hormones, obesity induced elevations in insulin, glucose, or free fatty acids, and changes in adipokines appear to impact the developmental competence of the oocyte. The data indicate that any one of these hormones or metabolites can impair oocyte developmental competence in vivo, and the combination of all of these factors and their interactions are the subject of ongoing investigations

4. Ovarian structure and function
In a study of " The New Zealand obese mouse model of obesity insulin resistance and poor breeding performance: evaluation of ovarian structure and function" by Radavelli-Bagatini S, Blair AR, Proietto J, Spritzer PM, Andrikopoulos S. (Source from Department of Medicine (Austin Health/Northern Health), Heidelberg Repatriation Hospital, The University of Melbourne, Heidelberg Heights, Melbourne, Victoria 3081, Australia), researchers concluded that NZO mice (New Zealand obese mice) show a poor breeding performance due to decreased ovulation, increased number of primordial and atretic follicles, and ovarian size. Given that NZO mice are obese, hyperinsulinemic and insulin resistant, they are suitable for investigating pathophysiological mechanisms linking metabolic alterations with reproductive defects.

5. Ovarian dysfunction
According to the study of "Inflammatory pathways linking obesity and ovarian dysfunction" by
Robker RL, Wu LL, Yang X. (Source from School of Paediatrics and Reproductive Health, Robinson Institute, University of Adelaide, Adelaide, South Australia 5005, Australia. rebecca.robker@adelaide.edu.au, Copyright © 2011 Elsevier Ireland Ltd. All rights reserved), posted in PubMed, researchers found that Studies in mice support this and allow further dissection of the pathways by which diet-induced obesity contributes to changes in mitochondria and the endoplasmic reticulum. These studies are in their infancy but cumulatively provide basic information about the cellular mechanisms that may lead to the impaired ovulation and reduced oocyte developmental potential that is observed in obese females.

6. Pregnancy-related complications
According to the study "Effect of body mass index on in vitro fertilization outcomes in women" by Sathya A, Balasubramanyam S, Gupta S, Verma T. (Source from Consultant Endocrinologist, Institute of Reproductive Medicine and Women's Health, Madras Medical Mission Hospital, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India), posted in PobMed, researchers concluded in abstract that Increase in body mass index in women does not appear to have an adverse effect on IVF outcome. However, preconceptual counselling for obese women is a must as weight reduction helps in reducing pregnancy-related complications.

7. Etc.

Effect of Female obesity and Newborn
In a study of "[Obesity and female reproduction].[Article in French], by Sarfati J, Young J, Christin-Maitre S. (Source from Service d'Endocrinologie et des Maladies de la Reproduction, Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Bicêtre - APHP, 78 rue du Général-Leclerc 94275 Le Kremlin-Bicêtre, France. sarfati_julie@yahoo.fr, Copyright © 2010 Elsevier Masson SAS. All rights reserved), posted in PobMed, researchers found that In this model, all weaned pups have been fed with a regular diet. At 13 weeks, pups delivered from obese mice were significantly larger, and these pups demonstrated early development of a metabolic-type syndrome. These findings suggest that maternal obesity has adverse effects as early as the oocyte and preimplantation embryo stages and that these effects may contribute to lasting morbidity in offspring, underscoring the importance of optimal maternal weight and nutrition before conception.

The importance of Obesity and Infertility treatment
1. According to the study of "Impact of obesity on female fertility and fertilitytreatment" by Zain MM, Norman RJ. (Source from University of Adelaide, Research Centre for Reproductive Health, School of Paediatrics & Reproductive Health, South Australia, Australia. murizah.mohdzain@adelaide.edu.au), posted in PubMed, researchers filed in abstract that treatment of obesity itself should be the initial aim in obese infertile women before embarking on ovulation-induction drugs or assisted reproductive techniques. While various strategies for weight reduction, including diet, exercise, pharmacological and surgical intervention exist, lifestyle modification continues to be of paramount importance.

2. In a study of "Improving reproductive performance in overweight/obese women with effective weight management" by Norman RJ, Noakes M, Wu R, Davies MJ, Moran L, Wang JX. (Source from Reproductive Medicine Unit, University of Adelaide, The Queen Elizabeth Hospital, Woodville Rd, Woodville, SA5011, Australia_, posted in PubMed, researchers found that weight loss can improve the fertility of obese women through the recovery of spontaneous ovulation, whereas others will have improved response to ovarian stimulation in infertility treatment. Therefore, it is proposed that following the initial assessment of infertility and body mass index or other measurement of obesity, various weight management interventions, including diet, exercise or pharmacotherapeutic approaches, should be considered for overweight and obese infertile women.

3. Reported from the study of "The obese patient with infertility: a practical approach to diagnosis and treatment" by Moran LJ, Norman RJ. (Source from Reproductive Medicine Unit, Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, University of Adelaide, The Queen Elizabeth Hospital, South Australia, Australia), posted in Pubmed, researchers found that weight loss should be promoted as an initial treatment option for obese women with infertility. However, the most effective method for achieving and maintaining weight loss is unclear. Gradual weight loss is best achieved through a sensible eating plan that can be maintained over long periods of time. The likelihood of maintaining weight loss is increased when diet is combined with regular exercise, cognitive behaviortherapy, and a supportive group environment. Adoption of these principles in a primary healthcare setting can therefore aid in treatment of infertility related toobesity.

Mint sauce with apple and onion for roast lamp or lamp chops.

Diabetic recipe
Attributed to Delicious Dish for diabetics by Robin Ellis, Published by Skyhorse Publishing Inc. New York. You can view its website atwww.skyhorsepublishing.com.

This to my mind is so much nicer than traditional mint sauce. The apple and onion put a real spring in its step - helped on by the cider vinegar. Goes wonderful with roast lamp or lamp chops.
Leave from a bunch of mint
1 apple - peeled, cored and roughly chopped
1 small onion - quartered
salt
Good splash of cider vinegar
1. Process the mint, apple and onion in a blender - not too finely: it should have texture.
2. Add some salt and a good splash of vinegar. Taste to see if it needs a little more of anything - it may take a couple of goes to get the balance right. Then leave to marinade in the fridge.
3. Bring it back to room temperature before serving.

Obesity is defined as a medical condition of excess body fat accumulated overtime, while overweight is a condition of excess body weight relatively to the height. According to the Body Mass Index(BMI), a BMI between 25 to 29.9 is considered over weight, while a BMI of over 30 is an indication of obesity. According to the statistic, 68% of American population are either overweight or obese.

Impotence is classified as a condition of erectile dysfunction of male with characteristic of inability maintain an erection of the penis during sexual intercourse.

How do calculate your BMI index
BMI= weight (kg)/ height (m2)

How Obesity associates with Impotence
1. In a study of "Obesity and sexual dysfunction, male and female" by Esposito K, Giugliano F, Ciotola M, De Sio M, D'Armiento M, Giugliano D" ( from Source Division of Metabolic Diseases, Department of Geriatrics and Metabolic Diseases, University of Naples SUN, Naples, Italy. katherine.esposito@unina2.it, Int J Impot Res. 2008 Jul-Aug;20(4):358-65. Epub 2008 Apr 10), posted in PubMed, researchers stated that
a. Overweight and obesity may increase the risk of erectile dysfunction (ED) by 30-90% as compared with normal weight subjects. On the other hand, subjects with ED tend to be heavier and with a greater waist than subjects without ED, and also are more likely to be hypertensive and hypercholesterolemic.
b. The metabolic syndrome, characterized by a clustering of risk factors associated with insulin resistance and abdominal obesity, associates with ED.

2. According to the abstract of study of "Mechanisms of obesity and related pathologies: androgen deficiency and endothelial dysfunction may be the link between obesity and erectile dysfunction" by Traish AM, Feeley RJ, Guay A. (Source from Department of Biochemistry and Urology, Boston University School of Medicine, MA 02118, USA. atraish@bu.edu, FEBS J. 2009 Oct;276(20):5755-67. Epub 2009 Sep 15), posted in PubMed, researchers found that visceral obesity, a component of the metabolic syndrome, adversely affects endothelial function and testosterone levels, contributing to hypogandism and erectile dysfunction. Thus, clinical screening for the risk of erectile dysfunction in obese patients should include the assessment of waist circumference, testosterone levels, body mass index and physical inactivity.

3. According to the study of "Androgen deficiency and abnormal penile duplex parameters in obese men with erectile dysfunction" by Zohdy W, Kamal EE, Ibrahim Y. (Source from University of Cairo, Department of Andrology, Cairo, Egypt. wzohdy62@hotmail.com, J Sex Med. 2007 May;4(3):797-808), posted in PubMed, researchers indicated that Obesity is associated with lower TT and disturbances of penile hemodynamics. It is an independent clinical factor for vasculogenic ED.

4. In a study of "Obesity, low testosterone levels and erectile dysfunction" by Diaz-Arjonilla M, Schwarcz M, Swerdloff RS, Wang C. (Source from Division of Endocrinology, Department of Medicine, Harbor-UCLA Medical Center, Torrance, CA 90803, USA.Int J Impot Res. 2009 Mar-Apr;21(2):89-98. Epub 2008 Oct 9), researchers found that the relationships between low serum testosterone concentrations and ED in obese patients and those with metabolic syndrome and type 2 diabetes mellitus.

5. According to the abstract of study of "Complications of a buried penis in an extremely obese patient" by Mattsson B, Vollmer C, Schwab C, Padevit C, Horton K, John H, Horstmann M. (Source from Department of Urology, Kantonsspital Winterthur, Winterthur, Switzerland.© 2011 Blackwell Verlag GmbH), posted in PubMed, researchers concluded that Whereas acute complications of a buried penis in obese patients include local infection and urinary retention, chronic problems are undirected voiding, disturbed vaginal penetration and erectile dysfunction. Even though several surgical techniques are described, weight reduction should be primarily preferred.

6. In a study of "Body mass index regulates hypogonadism-associated CV risk: results from a cohort of subjects with erectile dysfunction" by Corona G, Rastrelli G, Monami M, Melani C, Balzi D, Sforza A, Forti G, Mannucci E, Maggi M. (Source from Sexual Medicine and Andrology Unit, University of Florence, Florence, Italy, © 2011 International Society for Sexual Medicine.), posted in PubMed, researchers found that Hypogonadism-associated CV risk depends on the characteristics of subjects, being more evident in normal weight than in obese patients. Further studies are advisable to clarify if low T in obese patients is a (positive) consequence of a comorbid condition (i.e., to save energy) or if it represents a pathogenetic issue of the same illness. Hence, possible misuse/abuse of T treatment in obese subjects must be avoided.

7. Etc.

Treatments of Obesity and Impotence
1. According to the study of "The importance of risk factor reduction in erectile dysfunction" by
Jackson G. (Source from Cardiothoracic Centre, 6th floor, East Wing, St. Thomas' Hospital, Lambeth Palace Road, London, SE1 7EH, United Kingdom. gjcardiol@talk21.com, Curr Urol Rep. 2007 Nov;8(6):463-6.), posted in PubMed, researchers Intensive intervention with lifestyle advice focusing on a healthy diet, weight loss, and increased physical activity benefits men with ED, reducing the markers of inflammation and improving endothelial function. Though phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitors are highly effective in treating ED, lifestyle advice and aggressive risk reduction remain fundamental to the overall vascular good health of the individual.

2. In a study of "Beneficial impact of exercise and obesity interventions on erectile function and its risk factors" by Hannan JL, Maio MT, Komolova M, Adams MA. (Source fromDepartment of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Queen's University, Kingston, Ontario, Canada,J Sex Med. 2009 Mar;6 Suppl 3:254-61), posted in PubMed, the result showed that Physical inactivity negatively impacts on erectile function, and experimental and clinical exercise interventions have been shown to improve sexual responses and overall cardiovascular health. Mediterranean-style diets and a reduction in caloric intake have been found to improve erectile function in men with the aspects of the metabolic syndrome. In addition, both clinical and experimental studies have confirmed that combining the two interventions provides additional benefit to erectile function, likely via reduced metabolic disturbances (e.g., inflammatory markers, insulin resistance), decreased visceral adipose tissue, and improvement in vascular function (e.g., increased endothelial function), researchers concluded that Lifestyle modifications provide significant benefits to vascular health and erectile function in a population that is increasingly aged and more obese.

3. In an abstract of the study of "Physical activity and erectile dysfunction in middle-aged men : a brief review" by La Vignera S, Condorelli R, Vicari E, D'Agata R, Calogero A. (J Androl. 2011 May 19. [Epub ahead of print]), posted in PubMed researchers found that Conflicting data regarding the effects of exercise on the androgen status. In clinical practice would be recommended to add regular physical activity to balanced diet and drugs to achieve better therapeutic results.

Obesity Complication of Sleep Disorder

Obesity is defined as a medical condition of excess body fat accumulated overtime, while overweight is a condition of excess body weight relatively to the height. According to the Body Mass Index(BMI), a BMI between 25 to 29.9 is considered over weight, while a BMI of over 30 is an indication of obesity. According to the statistic, 68% of American population are either overweight or obese.

How to calculate your BMI index
BMI= weight (kg)/ height (m2)


Sleep disorder (somnipathy) is a medical disorder of the sleep patterns. It’s important to understand why sleep disorder can deteriorate your health and interfere with normal physical, mental and emotional functioning as it effects your nervous system in the production of the natural hormone melatonin which is necessary for sleep and wakefulness. Polysomnography testing can help to evaluate and detect the patterns of sleep disorder.

How Obesity associates with Sleep Disorder
1. In the study of "Sleep apnea: a proinflammatory disorder that coaggregates with obesity" by Mehra R, Redline S., posted in PubMed, researchers found that this article elucidates mechanistic associations amongobesity, sleep apnea, and systemic inflammation; highlights interrelationships between these factors with cardiopulmonary disease; and identifies specific areas for future research directions.

2. According to the abstract of the study of "Postoperative considerations for patients with obesity and sleep apnea" by Bell RL, Rosenbaum SH., posted inPubMed, researchers stated that p apnea and obesity are prevalent and often coexisting conditions that challenge medical, anesthetic, and surgical treatment. It is essential to possess knowledge of the magnitude of the sleep disorder as well as concomitant medical comorbidities. Management of obese patients requires a thorough preoperative evaluation and appraisal of anesthetic and operative risks. Postoperatively, these patients can present an additional challenge.

3. In a study of "Obstructive sleep apnea in the adult obese patient: implications for airway management" by Benumof JL., posted in PubMed, researchers found that Obstructive sleep apnea in the adult obese patient may be due, in part, to an increased amount of pharyngeal tissue. Therefore, there is an increased risk of intubation and extubation difficulties and pain management can be expected to be complicated by opioid/sedative-induced pharyngeal collapse.

4. In the abstract of the study of "The relationship between obesity and craniofacial structure in obstructive sleep apnea" by Ferguson KA, Ono T, Lowe AA, Ryan CF, Fleetham JA., posted in PubMed, researchers that there is a spectrum of upper airway soft-tissue and craniofacial abnormalities among OSA patients: obese patients with increased upper airway soft-tissue structures, nonobese patients with abnormal craniofacial structure, and an intermediate group of patients with abnormalities in both craniofacial structure and upper airway soft-tissue structures.

5. According to the study of "Cephalometric abnormalities in non-obese and obese patients with obstructive sleep apnoea" by Sakakibara H, Tong M, Matsushita K, Hirata M, Konishi Y, Suetsugu S., posted in PubMed, researchers indicated that Japanese obstructive sleep apnoea patients have a series of cephalometric abnormalities similar to those described in Caucasian patients, and that the aetiology of obstructive sleep apnoea in obese patients may be different from that in non-obese patients. In obese patients, upper airway soft tissue enlargement may play a more important role in the development of obstructive sleep apnoea, whereas in non-obese patients, bony structure discrepancies may be the dominant contributing factors for obstructive sleepapnoea.

6. In a study of "Dentofacial characteristics as indicator of obstructive sleepapnoea-hypopnoea syndrome in patients with severe obesity" by Maciel Santos ME, Laureano Filho JR, Campos JM, Ferraz EM., posted in PubMed, researchers found that the most prevalent modified Mallampati index score was between 3 and 4, while grade 1 was the most prevalent tonsillar hypertrophy index score (46%). Cephalometry revealed angular and linear measurements with normally acceptable values for the hard tissues. Obese patients seem to have a normal craniofacial structure and the risk of developing OSAHS is especially related to obesity.

7. Etc.

Treatments of Obesity and Sleep Disorder
1. According to the study of "Quantification of sleep behavior and of its impact on the cross-talk between the brain and peripheral metabolism" by Hanlon EC, Van Cauter E., posted in PubMed, researchers indicated that... Simultaneously, average sleep times have progressively decreased. Recently, evidence from both laboratory and epidemiologic studies has suggested that insufficient sleep may stimulate overeating and thus play a role in the currentepidemic of obesity and diabetes,.... The findings provide evidence that sleeprestriction does indeed impair glucose metabolism and alters the cross-talk between the periphery and the brain, favoring excessive food intake. A better understanding of the adverse effects of sleep restriction on the CNS control of hunger and appetite may have important implications for public health.

2. In a study of "Sleep apnea and obesity" by Yu JC, Berger P 3rd., posted inPubMed, researchers wrote that Perhaps, the strongest observational evidence to support a link between sleep apnea and obesity is the similarity in age distribution of symptomatic sleep apnea and metabolic syndrome. The putative causal links between sleep apnea and each individual component of the metabolic syndrome have been extensively evaluated and have implicated bidirectional causality in certain metabolic conditions, such as obesity and sleep apnea, sleep apnea and diabetes mellitus, and obesity and diabetes mellitus. These studies collectively suggest that even modest weight loss improves OSA, and positively affects both metabolic and cardiovascular risk profiles.

3. in the abstract of the study of "Pharmacological treatment of obstructivesleep apnea", by Abad VC, Guilleminault C., posted in PubMed, researchers wrote that Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a growing public health hazard fueled by the obesity epidemic and an aging population. Untreated sleep apnea can result in significant consequences both in the short-term and long-term. We need to educate the public to recognize the symptoms of sleep apnea and to publicize that effective treatments are available. Positive airway pressure therapy remains the gold standard currently in treating OSA. Alternative treatments include an oral appliance or surgical options. This paper discusses the pharmacologic treatment of sleep apnea: goals include medications to address the ventilatory control of breathing, treat co-morbid diseases, treat associated health problems/complaints, address special issues, such as anesthetic precautions, and propose future targets.

In an abstract of study of "Overweight is not a comorbidity factor during childhood asthma (GrowthOb study)?" by Mahut B, Beydon N, Delclaux C.(Source from Hôpital européen Georges-Pompidou, Service de Physiologie - Clinique de la Dyspnée, F-75015 Paris, France), posted in PubMed, researchers indicated that Compared to normal weight children, overweight plus obese children had reduced lung volume ratios (FRC/TLC and RV/TLC), no evidence of airflow limitation and similar symptoms.In conclusion, the observed functional relationships with BMI are not specific of asthma, and, being overweight is not associated with significant clinical impacts on asthma during childhood.

2. According to a study of "Urban-rural differences in asthma prevalence among young people in Canada: the roles of health behaviors andobesity" by Lawson JA, Janssen I, Bruner MW, Madani K, Pickett W. (Source from Canadian Centre for Health and Safety in Agriculture, University of Saskatchewan, Saskatoon, SK, Canada, and the Department of Medicine, University of Saskatchewan, Saskatoon, SK, Canada), posted in PubMed, researchers found that Although asthma prevalence among youth was lower in rural areas, this association was not mediated by health behaviors or obesity. Other exposures, likely environmental, are the logical mechanisms through which rural geographic status is related to lower asthma prevalence.

3. In a study of "The association of obesity and asthma severity and control in children" by

Quinto KB, Zuraw BL, Poon KY, Chen W, Schatz M, Christiansen SC. (Source from Department of Allergy and Immunology, University of California, San Diego, La Jolla, Calif), posted in PubMed, researchers found that Even after adjusting for demographics, parental education level, asthma controller use, and gastroesophageal reflux disease and diabetes mellitus diagnoses, overweight (BMI percentile for age, 85% to 94%) and obese (BMI percentile for age, ≥95%) children were more likely to have increased β-agonists dispensed (odds ratio of 1.15 [95% CI, 1.02-1.27] and odds ratio of 1.17 [95% CI, 1.06-1.29], respectively) and increased risk for oral corticosteroids dispensed (odds ratio of 1.21 [95% CI, 1.13-1.29] and odds ratio of 1.28 [95% CI, 1.21-1.36], respectively) compared with normal-weight (BMI percentile for age, 16% to 84%) children.

4. According to the study of "The relationship between obesity and asthmaseverity and control in adults" by Mosen DM, Schatz M, Magid DJ, Camargo CA Jr. (Source from Center for Health Research, Kaiser Permanente, Portland, OR 92111, USA. david.m.mosen@kpchr.org), posted in PubMed, researchers found that Even after adjusting for demographics, smoking status, oral corticosteroid use, evidence of gastroesophageal reflux disease, and inhaled corticosteroid use, obese adults were more likely than those with normal BMIs (<25 kg/m(2)) to report poor asthma-specific quality of life (odds ratio [OR], 2.8; 95% CI, 1.6-4.9), poor asthma control (OR, 2.7; 95% CI, 1.7-4.3), and a history ofasthma-related hospitalizations (OR, 4.6; 95% CI, 1.4-14.4).

5. In a study of "Measures of obesity associated with asthma diagnosis in ethnic minority children" by Vangeepuram N, Teitelbaum SL, Galvez MP, Brenner B, Doucette J, Wolff MS. (Source from
Department of Preventive Medicine, Mount Sinai School of Medicine, 1 Gustave L. Levy Place, Box 1512, New York, NY 10029, USA),posted in PubMed, researchers found that When comparing the highest quintile of each body fat measure to the combined lowest two quintiles, higher body mass index percentile, percent body fat, and waist circumference all were associated with a higher likelihood of physician-diagnosed asthma (PR = 1.63 (95% CI 1.12-2.39), 1.50 (95% CI 1.02-2.21), and 1.56 (95% CI 1.04-2.34), resp.). Conclusions. This study found a significant association between increased body size and asthmadiagnosis, regardless of the measurement examined.

6. In an abstract of the study of "Body mass index and the risk of asthma in adults" by Luder E, Ehrlich RI, Lou WY, Melnik TA, Kattan M. (Source from Department of Pediatrics, Mount Sinai School of Medicine, One Gustave L. Levy Place, Box 1202B, New York, NY 10029, USA. elisabeth.luder@mssm.edu), posted inPubMed, researchers indicated that this cross-sectional study showed that men and women differ significantly in the association between BMI and asthmaprevalence only with respect to the lowest weight category. While women had a monotonic association, men showed a U-shaped relationship, indicating that both extremes of weight are associated with a higher prevalence of asthma.

Treatments of Obesity and Asthma
1. According to the study of "Influence of obesity on control in asthmatic Japanese patients defined by the Japanese definition of obesity" by Youkou A, Hasegawa T, Suzuki K, Koya T, Sakagami T, Toyabe S, Arakawa M, Gejyo F, Narita I, Suzuki E. (Source from Division of Respiratory Medicine, Niigata University Graduate School of Medical and Dental Sciences, Japan.), posted in PubMed, researchers found that This study investigated influences of JASSO-defined obesity on asthma severity and management in a clinical setting in Japan. It is possible that there are strong interactions between asthma andobesity, such as obesity causing decreased ICS therapy efficacy and leukotriene (LT)-related inflammation, although further investigation is necessary.

2. According to a study of "Impact of bariatric surgery on pulmonary function and nitric oxide in asthmatic and non-asthmatic obese patients" by Lombardi C, Gargioni S, Gardinazzi A, Canonica GW, Passalacqua G. (Source from Allergy Unit, Department of Internal Medicine, Sant'Orsola-Poliambulanza Hospital, Brescia, Italy), posted in PubMed, researchers stated that Bariatric surgery significantly reduces the intake of inhaled corticosteroids and the levels of exhaled nitric oxide, thus bronchial inflammation, in asthmatics.

3. According to the study of "Weight loss and asthma control in severely obese asthmatic females" by Maniscalco M, Zedda A, Faraone S, Cerbone MR, Cristiano S, Giardiello C, Sofia M. (Source from Section of Respiratory Medicine, Hospital S. Maria della Pietà Casoria, Naples, Italy. mauromaniscalco@hotmail.com), posted in PubMed, researchers found that Consistent weight loss in severely obese patients with asthma is associated to improvement in respiratory symptoms and lung function. However, the mechanisms underlying the effect of large body mass changes on asthma would require further studies.

Obesity is defined as a medical condition of excess body fat accumulated overtime, while overweight is a condition of excess body weight relatively to the height. According to the Body Mass Index(BMI), a BMI between 25 to 29.9 is considered over weight, while a BMI of over 30 is an indication of obesity. According to the statistic, 68% of American population are either overweight or obese.

How to calculate your BMI index
BMI= weight (kg)/ height (m2)

Pulmonary Hypertension is defined as a condition of abnormally high blood pressure in the lungs' arteries as a result of the small arteries have become narrowed of which no longer carry enough blood to the heart.

How obesity associates with Pulmonary Hypertension
1. In a study of "Role of obesity in cardiomyopathy and pulmonary hypertension" by Dela Cruz CS, Matthay RA. (Source fromSection of Pulmonaryand Critical Care Medicine, Department of Internal Medicine, Yale University School of Medicine, New Haven, CT 06520-8057, USA.), posted in PubMed, researchers imdicated in abstract that The authors also briefly explore whetherobesity plays a role in the development of pulmonary hypertension. Better recognition and understanding of both obesity cardiomyopathy and pulmonary hypertension are needed in the obese patient population.

2. According to the srudy of "Respiratory health in overweight and obese Chinese children" by He QQ, Wong TW, Du L, Jiang ZQ, Qiu H, Gao Y, Liu JW, Wu JG, Yu IT. (Source from Department of Community and Family Medicine, The Chinese University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, Hong Kong, PR China), posted in PubMed, researchers found that Our findings demonstrate that overweight and obesity are high risks for children's respiratory symptoms and diseases. Pulmonary function was not adversely affected byobesity in schoolchildren.


3. In an abstract of a study of "The effect of obesity on pulmonary lung function of school aged children in Greece" by Spathopoulos D, Paraskakis E, Trypsianis G, Tsalkidis A, Arvanitidou V, Emporiadou M, Bouros D, Chatzimichael A. (Source from Department of Paediatrics, University Hospital of Alexandroupolis, Democritus University of Thrace, Alexandroupolis, Greece), posted in PubMed, researchers found that High BMI remained a strong independent risk factor for asthma (OR = 2.17, 95% CI = 1.22-3.87, P = 0.009) and for atopy (OR = 2.06, 95% CI = 1.32-3.22, P = 0.002). The effect of increased BMI on asthma was significant in girls, but not in boys (OR = 2.73, 95% CI = 1.09-6.85, P = 0.032; OR = 1.74, 95% CI = 0.83-3.73, P = 0.137, respectively). In conclusion we have shown that high BMI remains an important determinant of reduced spirometric parameters, a risk factor for atopy in both genders and for asthma in girls.

4. According to the abstact of "Comparison of body habitus in patients withpulmonary arterial hypertension enrolled in the Registry to Evaluate Early and Long-term PAH Disease Management with normative values from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey" by Burger CD, Foreman AJ, Miller DP, Safford RE, McGoon MD, Badesch DB. (Source fromDivision of PulmonaryMedicine, Mayo Clinic, 4500 San Pablo Rd., Jacksonville, FL 32224, USA. burger.charles@mayo.edu), posted in PubMed, researchers indicated that Mean BMI of the REVEAL patients was the same as that of the NHANES normal comparison group; however, there were higher percentages of obese and underweight patients in REVEAL. This discrepancy can be explained by the balancing effect of more overweight and underweight patients in different PAH subgroups. The reason for the increased frequency of obesity in idiopathic PAH is unknown, and additional study is needed.

5. In a study of "Prospective study of BMI and the risk of pulmonaryembolism in women" by Kabrhel C, Varraso R, Goldhaber SZ, Rimm EB, Camargo CA. (Source from Department of Emergency Medicine, Harvard Medical School, Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston, Massachusetts, USA. ckabrhel@partners.org), posted in PubMed, researchers found that . There was a strong positive association between BMI, the risk of idiopathic PE (relative risk (RR) = 1.08 (95% confidence interval (CI), 1.06-1.10) per 1 kg/m(2) increase in BMI, P < 0.001) and nonidiopathic PE (RR = 1.08 (95% CI, 1.07-1.10), P < 0.001). The association was linear, and apparent even with modest increases in BMI (22.5-25 kg/m(2)). The risk increased nearly sixfold among subjects with BMI >or=35 kg/m(2), and was present in multiple subgroups. Increasing BMI has a strong, linear association with the development of PE in women. Clinicians should consider BMI when assessing the risk of PE in their patients.

Treatments of Obesity and Pulmonary Hypertension
1. According to the abstract of the study of "Lorcaserin for the treatment ofobesity" by Redman LM, Ravussin E. (Source from Pennington Biomedical Research Center, Baton Rouge, Louisiana 70808, USA. leanne.redman@pbrc.edu), posted in PubMed, researchers found that Preclinical and clinical studies indicate lorcaserin is well tolerated and not associated with cardiac valvulopathy or pulmonary hypertension suggesting that lorcaserin is a selective 5-HT(2C) receptor agonist and has little or no activation of the 5-HT(2B) and 5-HT(2A) receptors, respectively. Lorcaserin acts to alter energy balance through a reduction in energy intake and without an increase in energy expenditure and achieved the U.S. Food and Drug Administration guidelines for weight loss efficacy. It remains to be determined whether or not lorcaserin will be approved for the long-term management of obesity.

2. In an abstract of the study of "Pulmonary considerations in obesity and the bariatric surgical patient" by Davis G, Patel JA, Gagne DJ. (Source from Houston Surgical Consultants, 6560 Fannin Street, Suite 738, Houston, TX 77030, USA. gpdtx@yahoo.com), posted in PubMed, researchers indicated that Bariatric surgery has been shown to be the most effective modality of reliable and durable treatment for severe obesity. Surgical weight loss improves and, in most cases, completely resolves the pulmonary health problems associated withobesity.

3. According to the study of "Obesity duration is associated to pulmonaryfunction impairment in obese subjects" by Santamaria F, Montella S, Greco L, Valerio G, Franzese A, Maniscalco M, Fiorentino G, Peroni D, Pietrobelli A, De Stefano S, Sperlì F, Boner AL. (Source from Department of Pediatrics, Federico II University, Naples, Italy. santamar@unina.it), posted in PubMed, researchers found that Duration of obesity was significantly related to all PFTs (P ≤ 0.001). In a multiple regression analysis where duration and severity of obesity, hypertension, atopy, asthma, and family history of atopic diseases were independent variables, duration of obesity was a predictor of lower PFTs (P < 0.01). Of the remaining variables, only hypertension contributed to lower lung volumes. In obese individuals, lung function was significantly lower in subjects with greater years ofobesity. Fat loss programs should be encouraged to prevent late pulmonaryfunction impairment.
