Obesity is defined as a medical condition of excess body fat has 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 indexBMI= weight (kg)/ height (m2)
Hyperlipidemia is defined as a condition of High Levels of Cholesterol and Triglycerides of that can increase the risk of heart disease, stroke, and other health problems.
How Obesity associates with Hyperlipidemia ( High Levels of Cholesterol and Triglycerides)
1. According to the abstract of "Influence of having a male twin on body mass index and risk for dyslipidemia in middle-aged and old women" by The results support the notion that comparisons of women with a twin brother with women from same-sexed twin pairs may be used to shed light on possible long-term effects of interindividual variations in early androgen exposure, and (ii) suggest that the effects of early androgen exposure on metabolism previously observed in animal experiments are of relevance also for humans.
2. In the abstract of the study of "Plasma sterol evidence for decreased absorption and increased synthesis of cholesterol in insulin resistance and obesity" by Paramsothy P, Knopp RH, Kahn SE, Retzlaff BM, Fish B, Ma L, Ostlund RE Jr., posted in PubMed, researchers concluded that Cholesterol absorption was highest in the LIS participants, whereas cholesterol synthesis was highest in the LIR and OIR participants. Therapeutic diets for hyperlipidemia should emphasize low-cholesterol diets in LIS persons and weight loss to improve S(I) and to decrease cholesterol overproduction in LIR and OIR persons.
3. According to the study of "Obesity and dyslipidemia" by Repas T., posted in PubMed, researchers wrote in abstract that Dyslipidemia is frequently found in association with obesity. Obesity-related dyslipidemia is characterized by elevated triglycerides, elevated VLDL, increased apo-B, decreased HDL cholesterol and increased small dense LDL particles. This combination of lipid abnormalities is particularly atherogenic and, along with related comorbidities, explains the increased cardiovascular risk seen in obesity. Weight loss, through diet, medication and/or surgery all result in beneficial effects upon serum lipids. Dietary modification and lifestyle change are essential components in the management of obesity-related dyslipidemia. Many patients, however, require pharmacotherapy to achieve lipid goals.
4. In the study of "Prevalences of overweight, obesity, hyperglycaemia, hypertension and dyslipidaemia in the Gulf: systematic review" by Alhyas L, McKay A, Balasanthiran A, Majeed A., posted in PubMed, researchers found that there are high prevalences of risk factors for diabetes and diabetic complications in the GCC region, indicative that their current management is suboptimal. Enhanced management will be critical if escalation of diabetes-related problems is to be averted as industrialization, urbanization and changing population demographics continue.
5. In the abstract of "The relative risks of hyperglycaemia, obesity and dyslipidaemia in the relatives of patients with Type II diabetes mellitus" by Shaw JT, Purdie DM, Neil HA, Levy JC, Turner RC., posted in PubMed, researchers found that the relatives were significantly more obese, had higher fasting plasma insulin concentrations and had lower HDL-cholesterol concentrations. In conclusion, there is a strong familial aggregation of hyperglycaemia and obesity in the relatives of subjects with Type II diabetes and these subjects have higher fasting plasma insulin concentrations and lower HDL-cholesterol than the general population. These data indicate the particular relevance of screening the first degree relatives of subjects with Type II diabetes, as intervention strategies which aim to improve the metabolic profile are indicated for a large proportion of these subjects.
6. Etc.
Treatments of Obesity and Hyperlipidemia
1. According to the study of "Caloric restriction, aerobic exercise training and soluble lectin-like oxidized LDL receptor-1 levels in overweight and obese post-menopausal women" by, , , and , posted in International Journals of Obesity, researchers wrote that Weight loss interventions of equal energy deficit have similar effects on sLOX-1 levels in overweight and obese post-menopausal women, with the addition of aerobic exercise having no added benefit when performed in conjunction with CR.
2. In the abstract of the study of "Obesity, hyperlipidemia, and metabolic syndrome" by Charlton M., posted in PubMed, researchers wrote that in 4. It is rare for dietary changes and weight reduction to result in normalization of the lipid profile. Statins should thus be initiated early in the course of management of post-LT dyslipidemia. Forty milligrams of simvastatin per day, 40 mg of atorvastatin per day, and 20 mg of pravastatin per day are reasonable starting doses for post-LT hypercholesterolemia. It is important to remember that the effects of statin therapy are additive to those of a controlled diet (eg, a Mediterranean diet rich in omega-3 fatty acids, fruits, vegetables, and dietary fiber).
3. According to the study of "Group 1B phospholipase A2 deficiency protects against diet-induced hyperlipidemia in mice" by Hollie NI, Hui DY., posted in PubMed, researchers found that in addition to dietary fatty acids, gut-derived lysophospholipids derived from Pla2g1b hydrolysis of dietary and biliary phospholipids also promote hepatic VLDL production. Thus, the inhibition of lysophospholipid absorption via Pla2g1b inactivation may prove beneficial against diet-induced hyperlipidemia in addition to the protection against obesity and diabetes.

Obesity Complication of Artheroclerosis
By Kyle J. Norton
Obesity is defined as a medical condition of excess body fat has 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)
Artheroclerosis, also known as
arteriosclerotic vascular disease is defined as a condition of thickening of the arterial wall as a result of plague accumulation due to building up of fat and cholesterol.
How Obesity associates with Artheroclerosis
1. In a study of "[Left ventricular hypertrophy and thickening of common carotid artery wall in men aged 40 - 54 years with I degree arterial hypertension]." [Article in Russian] by Grigoricheva EA, Sorokin AV, Korovina OV, Pestova DL., posted in PubMed, researchers found that Formation of left ventricular hypertrophy was related to parameters of 24 hour blood pressure monitoring, arterial hypertension in brothers and sisters, body weight, and duration of obesity. Significant medium power relation was obtained between tension of endothelial system of hemostasis (protein C) and severity of left ventricular hypertrophy (correlation coefficient - 0,3). Age, heredity, low density lipoprotein, cholesterol, uric acid level mattered for IMT increase.
2. According to the study of "High rate of increased carotid intima-media thickness and atherosclerotic plaques in Chinese asymptomatic subjects with central obesity" by Ko GT, Chow CC, Leung G, Au-Yeung TW, Chan WB, Lam CS, Lo M, Lee KK., posted in PubMed, researchers concluded that among Hong Kong Chinese asymptomatic subjects with central obesity, there was a high rate of CVD risk factors. We found that 19% of these subjects had carotid atherosclerotic plaques and 10% of them had abnormal IMT (>0.9 mm). Carotid IMT study may serve as an appropriate screening tool to diagnose atherosclerosis in the centrally obese middle-aged population.
3. In the study of "Obesity, atherosclerosis and the vascular endothelium: mechanisms of reduced nitric oxide bioavailability in obese humans" by
I L Williams, S B Wheatcroft, A M Shah and M T Kearney, posted in International Journals of Obesity, researchers wrote in abstract that it is now well established that obesity is an independent risk factor for the development of coronary artery atherosclerosis. The maintenance of vascular homeostasis is critically dependent on the continued integrity of vascular endothelial cell function. A key early event in the development of atherosclerosis is thought to be endothelial cell dysfunction.
4. According to the study of "Body mass index classification misses subjects with increased cardiometabolic risk factors related to elevated adiposit" by, , , , , , , , , , , , and , posted in International Journals of Obesity, researchers concluded that Given the elevated concentrations of cardiometabolic risk factors reported herein in non-obese individuals according to BMI but obese based on body fat, the inclusion of body composition measurements together with morbidity evaluation in the routine medical practice both for the diagnosis and the decision-making for instauration of the most appropriate treatment of obesity is desirable.
5. Etc.
Treatments of Obesity and Artheroclerosis
1. According to the study of "Acute effects of epigallocatechin gallate from green tea on oxidation and tissue incorporation of dietary lipids in mice fed a high-fat diet" by M Friedrich, K J Petzke, D Raederstorff, S Wolfram and S Klaus, posted in International Journals of Obesity, researchers found that Anti-obesity effects of EGCG can be explained by a decreased food digestibility affecting substrate metabolism of intestinal mucosa and liver, leading to increased post-prandial fat oxidation and reduced incorporation of dietary lipids into tissues.
2. in P54 of Poster session III: Physical activity, exercise, nutrition and body composition, "The Effect of Long-term Taijiquan Practice on the Lipid Metabolism and Hormone Levels among Obese University Students" by HaiJun Zhang1, HaiLi Zhang and XiaoTao Guo. posted in International Journals of Obesity, researchers concluded that Long-term Taijiquan practice improves the components of blood-lipid, promotes the fat catabolism, adjusts the endocrine, and is helpful for health, fitness and losing weight.
3. In P63 of Poster session III: Physical activity, exercise, nutrition and body composition, "Effect of the Diabolo Exercise on Aged Women" by Xinbao Wang1 and Dawu Huang, posted in International Journals of Obesity, researchers found that Diabolo exercise has a good effect on reducing obesity and improving the function of the cardiovascular system for aged women.

HSV-2 is a members of the herpesvirus family and can be spread through contact with saliva,
Stellarmedin A, a novel antiviral protein purified from Stellaria media, showed to inhibit the an proliferative and peroxidase activities of HSV-2 protein, according to the study by the Jiangsu Province and Chinese Academy of Sciences(1). Homologous defensins, Sm-AMP-D1 and Sm-AMP-D2, were isolated from seeds of common chickweed Stellaria media L, according to Russian Academy of Sciences, showed a strong inhibitory activity against phytopathogenic fungi and oomycetes and may be a potent promising for engineering pathogen resistance in crops(2). α-hairpinin, a novel antifungal peptide isolated from Stellaria media seeds, also exhibited high broad-spectrum activity against fungal phytopathogens(3).
