Q

Weight stigma impacts quality of care…..

A

Worse pt outcomes when HCPs provide less Patient centered care

Q

Waist Circumference

A

Measure central obesity and predicts risk incidence of BMI, so measure both BMI + Waist circumference is recommended

It varies with ethnicity & BMI doesn’t always reflect obesity-related risk to health

19
Q

Waist Circumference cut-offs

A

Men: > 94cm, 37in
Women: > 80cm, 31.5in

20
Q

Obesity Staging Systems

A

Edmonton Obesity Staging System (EOSS)

better predictor of mortality than BMI alone

Domains: Medical, Mental, Functional

21
Q

Key risk factor for cardiometbolic disease?

A

Obesity

22
Q

Metabolic Syndrome is…

A

complex of interrelated risk factors for CVD and T2D, including dysglycemia, raised blood pressure, elevated TGs, low HDL and obesity

23
Q

Clinical Diagnosis of Metabolic Syndrome

A

3 of the 5 following….

  1. Elevated Waist circumference
  2. Elevated TH
  3. Reduced HDL-C
  4. Elevated BP
  5. Elevated fasting glucose
24
Q

Obesity-related complications can be improved with….

A

5-10% weight loss

25
Q

0-5% weight loss can improve….

A

Hypertension

Hyperglycemia

26
Q

5-10% weight loss can improve….

A

T2D prevention
NAFLD = fatty liver
PCOS = ovary disorder
Dyslipidemia

27
Q

10-15% weight loss can improve…

A
CVD
USI
NASH
OSA
GERD
Knee OA
28
Q

> 15% weight loss can improve….

A

TD2 remission
CV mortality
HFpEF

29
Q

Historic Perception of Body weight reduction….

A

Energy intake > Energy expenditure = gain weight

Energy intake < Energy expenditure = weight loss

30
Q

Appetite enhancing hormone

A

Ghrelin (orexigenic)

31
Q

Appetite suppressing hormones

A

CCK (Anorexigenic)
Peptide YY
GLP-1

32
Q

Stomach produces which hormone?

A

Ghrelin

33
Q

Intestine produce which hormone?

A

CCK
GLP-1
PYY
OXM

34
Q

Pancreas produces which hormone?

A

Amylin
Insulin
PP
Glucagon

35
Q

Adipose tissues produce which hormone?

A

Leptin

Adiponectin

36
Q

Gherlin (Orexigenic) What it does

A

Activates NPY, AgRP = feel hungy

Block POMC, CART = inhibit feeling full

37
Q

Anorexigenic Hormones, what they do

A

Activate POMC,CART = feel full

Block NPY, AgRP = not hungry

38
Q

Homeostatic eating…..

A

depends on your Anorexigenic and Orexigenic Hormones

39
Q

Hedonic eating…..

A

Eating for pleasure

40
Q

Executive function…..

A

Deciding to eat

41
Q

Body weight is primarily regulated by….

A

hormonal and neuronal signaling along the gut-brain axis

42
Q

How does sleep play into obesity?

A

can effect appetite control

43
Q

Adaptations to weight loss promote weight regain by….

A
  1. Subjective perceptions of appetite increase hunger and desire to eat
  2. Hormone lvls, increase orexigenic signaling and decrease certain anorexigenic signals
  3. Metabolism, decrease energy expenditure rates
