“…The condition is a major public health concern since obesity is a key risk factor for a range of chronic illnesses (including, hypertension, diabetes, cholesterol, heart disease, stroke, gallbladder disease, biliary calculus, narcolepsy, osteoarthritis, asthma, apnoea, dyslipidaemia, gout and certain cancers) that tend to reduce the quality of life and ultimately result in death (Alberti et al, 2009;López-Suárez et al, 2008). Additionally, a significant number of obese patients tend to suffer mental disorders and social rejection leading to a loss of self-esteem, a particularly sensitive issue in the case of children (Gariepy et al, 2010).…”

The influence of obesity and overweight on medical costs: a panel data perspective

2014

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

This paper estimates the increase of direct medical costs of both severe and moderate obesity and overweight with respect to a normal-weight individual using a two-part generalised linear model and a longitudinal dataset of medical and administrative records of patients in primary and secondary healthcare centres followed up over seven consecutive years (2004)(2005)(2006)(2007)(2008)(2009)(2010) in Spain. Our findings indicate that severe and moderate obesity imposes a substantial burden on the Spanish healthcare system. Specifically, being severely obese is associated with increases in medical costs of 26 % (instrumental variables (IV) estimate, 34 %) compared to a normal-weight individual. The effects of moderate obesity and overweight are more modest, raising medical costs by 16 % (IV estimate, 29 %) and 8.5 % (IV estimate, 23 %), respectively. These changes in costs are slightly higher for those patients below the median age and for the women. Notwithstanding, the effects found in this study are comparatively much lower than that reported for the USA, based basically on a private healthcare system and characterised by a more obese population.

“…О р и г и н а л ь н ы е р а б о т ы С огласно современным эпидемиологичес-ким данным, постменопаузальный период в жизни женщин ассоциирован с увеличе-нием распространенности висцерального ожирения и метаболического синдрома (МС) [18]. Выраженный дефицит эстрогенов в менопаузе приводит к перерас-пределению жировой ткани в организме: отмечается преимущественно висцеральное накопление жира, не-зависимое от возраста и общей массы жировой ткани в организме [20,28].…”

“…Наряду с нарастанием распространенности висце-рального ожирения, менопауза ассоциирована с по-вышением частоты основных кардиометаболических факторов риска: артериальной гипертензии [9], проатерогенной дислипидемии, инсулинорези-стентности и различных нарушений углеводного обмена [6,18]. Соответственно, в этом периоде происходит нарастание частоты МС, причем ис-следования указывают на независимую от возраста ассоциацию менопаузы с развитием МС [6,18].…”

Учитывая вышесказанное, проблема МС и его ос-ложнений среди женщин постменопаузального пе-риода стоит особенно остро и требует углубленного изучения и разработки эффективных современных алгоритмов ранней диагностики и лечения данных нарушений и заболеваний.…”

The aim of the study was to assess the effect of metformin plus lifestyle modification on procoagulant and proinflammatory state associated with metabolic syndrome in postmenopausal women. Materials and methods: The 12-month prospective, open, randomized study included 58 postmenopausal women (age 55 [53; 56]; postmenopause 5 [4; 8] years) with metabolic syndrome (IDF, 2005). Participants were randomized into two groups receiving either metformin (1 g per day) plus lifestyle modification (n=29), or lifestyle modification alone (control group) (n=29). Blood tests were performed before and after the treatment period to evaluate parameters of coagulant and anticoagulant blood systems: prothrombin index, activated partial tromboplastin time (APTT), thrombin time, activities of factors VII (FVII),VIII (FVIII), von Willebrand factor (vWF), antithrombin III, plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1), tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA) and screening test for the protein C pathway. Also we assessed fibrinogen, C-reactive protein (CRP) and adiponectin concentrations. Results: After one year of treatment in metformin group CRP level decreased significantly from 4,98 [2,72; 11,95] to 2,56 [1,92; 6,76] mg/l (р
