Body mass index (BMI) determines the classification of obesity for clinical use.
Waist circumference reflects the distribution of adipose tissue and helps determine obesity risk.
Central obesity, reflected by a high waist measurement, is associated with more complications.

Body mass index can be calculated as : wt (kg)/ht2 (m) .
Body mass index (BMI)
M.A.Kubtan 6
Globally, overnutrition has now surpassed undernutrition as a public health concern
8.5% of the world population is overweight 5.8% underweight 2.3 billion adults will be overweight and
700,000 million obese by 2015. Persons in the overweight category have
20% to 40% increased mortality,
The problem of obesity
M.A.Kubtan 7
Workers with BMI over 35 kg/m2 experienced a 4.2% health-related drop in productivity
The medical consequences of obesity have been estimated to account for 9.1% of annual medical spending .

Surveys from 1976–1980 and 2003–2006 found that :
Obesity increased from 5.0% to 12.4% among children age 2 to 5 years;
From 6.5% to 17.0% for ages 6 to 11 years; From 5.0% to 17.6% for ages 12 to 19
years. Changes in obesity prevalence have affected all U.S. regions
M.A.Kubtan 11
BMI . Body fat percentage : is a precise
assessment of adiposity
Assessment
M.A.Kubtan 12
Health risks increase above a waist circumference of 35 inches in women and 40 inches in men
M.A.Kubtan 13
Men are more likely than women to have central obesity.
African Americans, Hispanics, and Native Americans are at greater risk of obesity than whites.
Obesity is inversely related to education and socioeconomic status.
Obesity is more prevalent in rural than urban areas.
Demographics
M.A.Kubtan 14
Men are more likely than women to be overweight .
Women are more likely to be obese. Men, however, are more likely to have
central obesity, associated with greater health risks.
Gender Differences
M.A.Kubtan 15
The prevalence ranges from approximately 2% in the least developed countries to over 30% in the most developed countries.
In developed countries, lower socioeconomic status is associated with an increased risk.
Socioeconomic Status
M.A.Kubtan 16
Education level is inversely related to the risk of obesity .
Education Level
M.A.Kubtan 17
Analysis data shows that the prevalence of obesity is greater in rural than urban areas.
Factors that reduce physical activity may play a role .
Rural and Urban Differences
M.A.Kubtan 18
The increased prevalence of overweight is alarming in the pediatric population .
More than 30% of children and adolescents are overweight or obese.
Age
M.A.Kubtan 19
Obesity results from the interaction of genetic makeup, environment, and lifestyle.
Genetic factors are estimated to account for 30% to 40% of the variability in adult weight.
Overall, genetic factors are estimated to be responsible for 30% to 40% of the variability in adult weight.
Specific metabolic or endocrine disorders account for less than 1% of the obese population.
Determinants of Obesity Genetic Factors
M.A.Kubtan 20
Obesity results from calorie consumption in excess of expenditure.
The conveniences of modern life have led to a decrease in energy expenditure.
A greater access to energy-dense food, along with other factors, has increased energy consumption.
Determinants of ObesityModern Life Factors
M.A.Kubtan 21
Increased caloric intake is related in part to eating away from home.
Smoking cessation is associated with weight gain of 4 to 5 kg (on average).
Many antidepressants, neuroleptics, and anticonvulsants are associated with weight gain.
Decreased overall physical activity (not just “exercise”) is a major factor associated with the increasing prevalence of overweight and obesity.
Lifestyle Influences
M.A.Kubtan 22
More than 250 genes and chromosomal regions are associated with phenotypic obesity .
The genes code specifically for visceral as opposed to subcutaneous obesity.
Impact of Genetic Factors
M.A.Kubtan 23
Leptin is a protein produced in adipose tissue that provides negative feedback to appetite control centers.
Ghrelin, a peptide produced in the stomach and duodenum that stimulates eating.
Defects in melanocortin receptors in the adrenals have also been associated with obesity.
FTO (fat mass and obesity-associated) gene .
Humeral Factors affecting Obesity
M.A.Kubtan 24
Melanocortin 4 receptor (MC4R) deficiency is the commonest monogenic form of obesity. However, the clinical spectrum and mode of inheritance have not been defined, pathophysiological mechanisms leading to obesity are poorly understood, and there is little information regarding genotype-phenotype correlations
Probable role of Melanocortin
M.A.Kubtan 25
Leptin levels. Vagal afferent activity . Fluctuation in plasma glucose levels. Neuropeptides and monoamine
neurotransmitters are also involved in appetite control.
Some weight loss medications may affect appetite or satiety.
Modulation of Appetite
M.A.Kubtan 26
Hypothyroidism is a relatively rare cause of obesity. Neuroendocrine Factors Cushing’s Syndrome is associated with central
obesity and “buffalo hump” along with axillary striae, glucose intolerance and hypertension.
Polycystic Ovary Syndrome , menstrual irregularities , hirsutism, elevated testosterone and luteinizing hormone blood levels , Insulin resistance is a consistent finding .
Growth Hormone Deficiency , impaired in growth hormone deficiency, there is an increase in truncal obesity.
Endocrine and Metabolic Factors
