Annual Review of Clinical Psychology, 2006
The prevalence of obesity is growing at an alarming rate. Thus, investigation into the etiology, comorbidities, and treatment of obesity has burgeoned in recent years. While novel therapies—both behavioral and pharmacological—have been developed and tested, the mean weight losses achieved with nonsurgical approaches have remained virtually unchanged ...

Obesity is a complex, multifactorial disease that is highly prevalent in the United States. Obesity is typically classified by body mass index and the US Preventive Services Task Force recommends screening all patients 6 years or older for obesity. Evaluation includes a thorough history and physical examination as well as laboratory tests including ...

Critical Care Clinics, 1994
Although obesity and trauma both are common in the general population, discussion of the care of the critically injured obese patient has been relatively absent. Obesity is associated with significant clinical and occult multisystem disease. Because host factors are key determinants of post-traumatic course and outcome, obesity appears to be a marker ...

2012
Obesity has become common in critically ill patients as it is in the population at large. Despite large fuel stores, obese patients can become rapidly malnourished and are subject to the same inflammatory and catabolic responses as their nonobese counterparts. The concepts of early enteral nutrition are therefore equally applicable to the obese patient

Clinics in Plastic Surgery, 1996
Obesity is a heterogeneous family of disorders with several overlapping contributory causes. It markedly increases morbidity and mortality from many different diseases, and affected patients are the targets of severe, negative social pressures. Physicians traditionally have been unsuccessful in treating obesity. The usual physician's office approach to

Annals of Internal Medicine, 2019
The role of internists in evaluating obesity is to assess the burden of weight-related disease, mitigate secondary causes of weight gain (medications, sleep deprivation), and solicit patient motivation for weight loss. Internists should assess these factors and emphasize the importance of weight loss for the individual patient.
