obesity disease process
- fat mass disease
- adiposopathy
- metabolically healthy obesity
Fat mass disease: result of abnormal and pathologic physical forces
i. Stress on weight bearing joints
ii. Tissue compression: Sleep apnea, GERD
iii. Tissue friction: Intertrigo
adiposopathy: result of improper endocrine and immune responses
i. Elevated blood glucose
ii. Elevated blood pressure
iii. Dyslipidemia
iv. Other metabolic concerns
metabolically healthy obesity
i. Low liver fat
ii. Low inflammation
iii. No adiposopathy but at risk for fat mass disease
Metabolic syndrome
Criteria for diagnosis (3 of 5)
i. Elevated waist circumference
1. 102 cm (40 inches) in men, 88 cm (35 inches) in women
ii. Elevated triglycerides >150 mg/dL
iii. Reduced HDL-C <40 mg/dL in men, <50 mg/dL in women
iv. Elevated blood pressure >130 mm Hg systolic blood pressure or 85 mm Hg diastolic blood pressure
v. Elevated fasting glucose 100 mg/dL
Absolute risk status
STAGE 1-5
STAGE 0
No apparent risk factors, physical symptoms, psychopathology, functional limitations and/or impairment of well-being related to obesity (e.g., blood pressure, serum lipid and fasting glucose levels within normal range)
STAGE 1:
Presence of obesity-related subclinical risk factors, mild physical symptoms, mild psychopathology, mild functional limitations and/or mild impairment of well-being (e.g., borderline hypertension, impaired fasting glucose levels, elevated levels of liver enzymes), (e.g. dyspnea on moderate exertion, occasional aches and pains, fatigue)
STAGE 2:
Presence of established obesity-related chronic disease, moderate limitations in activities of daily living and/or well-being (e.g., hypertension, type 2 diabetes, sleep apnea, osteoarthritis)
STAGE 3:
Established end-organ damage, significant psychopathology, significant functional limitations and/or impairment of well-being such as myocardial infarction, heart failure, stroke
