“…Obesity is currently considered a worldwide epidemic, prompting a major health concern and becoming a priority in public health policies (Bray and Bellanger, 2006;Flegal et al, 2010;Golden et al, 2009;Gutierrez-Fisac et al, 2011;WHO, 2009) because adiposity excess lead to a greater risk for cardiovascular diseases (Casanueva et al, 2009), diabetes (Seidell, 2000) and cancer (Crujeiras et al, 2012), among other complications (Pi-Sunyer, 2009). The general failure to develop effective anti-obesity treatments likely reflects the lack of complete understanding body weight and appetite regulation (Chaput and Tremblay, 2006).…”

Objective: The recently discovered peptide irisin has been hypothesized to be a regulator of body metabolism. The objective of this work was to evaluate whether circulating human irisin levels are modulated by body size and changes in adiposity during an energy restriction treatment and the subsequent weight regain.Methods: A group of 94 obese patients (50 men, 44 women; 49.4 6 9.4 years; BMI 35.6 6 4.5 kg/m 2 ) participated in a weight loss program following an 8-week hypocaloric diet (230% energy expenditure) with a weight maintenance follow-up. The patients were evaluated at 0, 8, and 24 weeks after starting treatment. In addition, 48 normal-weight subjects (16 men, 32 women; 35.71 6 8.8 years; BMI 22.9 6 2.2 kg/m 2 ) participated as controls. Plasma irisin, body weight, body composition, and hormones controlling energy homeostasis were measured.Results: Irisin levels were higher in obese subjects (353.1 6 18.6 ng/mL) than in those of normal-weight (198.4 6 7.8 ng/mL; P 0.001) and were also higher in men (340.9 6 20 ng/mL) than in women (267.6 6 12 ng/mL; P < 0.05). Moreover, irisin plasma levels were significantly correlated with high levels of direct and indirect adiposity markers, such as weight, BMI, waist circumference, and fat mass, as measured by bioimpedance, but not with height or leptin levels. Interestingly, irisin levels paralleled body weight reduction after the dietary treatment (week 8) and again returned to the baseline levels at 24 weeks in those patients regaining the lost weight.Conclusions: Irisin strongly reflects body fat mass, suggesting that the irisin circulating levels are conditioned by adiposity level.

“…[29][30][31][32] Al comparar con el diagnóstico de hipertensión arterial, encontramos que es la patología más reportada en nuestra población y presenta una prevalencia mayor en los sujetos con sobrepeso y obesidad (45.9 y 43.8%, respectivamente) que en aquellos con normopeso (33.3%) estos resultados son similares a los reportados por otros autores, debido a que está ampliamente demostrada la asociación entre estas dos enfermedades. 29,30,[33][34][35] Se encontró menor prevalencia de dislipidemia diagnosticada en los sujetos con sobrepeso y obesidad comparada con aquellos con normopeso, contradiciendo lo reportado por otros autores; sin embargo cabe aclarar que no podemos negar la relación existente entre la obesidad y la dislipidemia ya que en diversas unidades del Sistema Nacional de Salud no se implementan las recomendaciones debido a los costos implicados y la sobresaturación de servicios (4.4% y 9.5% respectivamente).…”

Objetivo. Determinar la prevalencia de sobrepeso y obesidad en adultos mayores en la Unidad de Medicina Familiar (UMF) del Instituto de Seguridad Social del Estado de Tabasco (ISSET) y su correlación con la presión arterial. Material y métodos: Se realizó un estudio observacional, retrospectivo, analítico, transversal en 7322 adultos de 60 años o más. Se obtuvieron las mediciones de peso, talla, presiones arteriales sistólica, diastólica y media, además de diagnósticos registrados en los expedientes clínicos. Se utilizaron estadísticas descriptivas de tendencia central y se calculó el coefiiente de correlación de Pearson (r) para el índice de masa corporal con las mediciones de presión arterial y se consideraron signifiativas aquellas con una p

“…Danforth et al found, in a recent study, the association of this pathology only with UUI. 50 We should also keep in mind that obesity is a risk factor for type 2 diabetes mellitus, 51 therefore, the existence of the first variable can affect the results of studies assessing risk factors.…”

StreSS urinary incontinence among women participating in the family health program of DouraDoS (mS), Brazil 649Rev Assoc Med Bras 2010; 56(6): 649-54 IntroductIonUrinary incontinence (UI) is defined as involuntary loss of urine through the urethra. 1 This condition can be classified into three common types: stress urinary incontinence (SUI), urge urinary incontinence (UUI), and mixed urinary incontinence. In SUI, urine leakage occurs when there is increased intraabdominal pressure, such as while practicing physical exercise, coughing, or sneezing. UUI is the inability to hold urine because of a strong need to void. Mixed urinary incontinence is a combination of the two previous conditions. 2 The economic impact of UI is significant both for the public health system and the families of patients with this pathology. In the United States, the cost of the treatment of patients with UI was estimated to be approximately $ 19.5 million in 2000. 3 The annual amount paid for routine care of a U.S. woman with UI was estimated at $ 900.00. 4 Studies have shown the negative impact of UI on the social, sexual, and psychological dimensions. 5 Fultz et al. assessed the impact of UI in 3,364 employed women and demonstrated impairment of work rhythm because of increased frequency of bathroom breaks. 6 Tamanini et al., using the International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire (ICIQ-SF), showed that among 225 patients with UI, 8.9% (20) and 17.8% (40) considered the impact of this condition on their quality of life to be severe and very severe, respectively. 7 Telephone interviews conducted in 2003 with 82,196 people over 65 years demonstrated that the prevalence of UI is twice as high in women compared to men and UI is significantly associated with depression. 8 The prevalence of female UI can range from 8.5% to 55%. showed a weak association. Using logistic regression, only pairing of weight and hysterectomy was able to predict the outcome (SUI). Most women with SUI (63.9%) had very severe impairment in the QOL. conclusIon. The prevalence of SUI was similar to that found in other studies; BMI, parity, number of pregnancies, and hysterectomy were associated with this disease, which seriously impairs the QOL.
