BMI is measured standardly as weight in kilograms divided by the square of the height in meters (Figure 4). The values of the BMI are age and sex dependent as body composition varies between sexes and at different ages. The values are then assessed by looking at a BMI table or chart.<sup>[3]</sup> | BMI is measured standardly as weight in kilograms divided by the square of the height in meters (Figure 4).

The secretory activity of adipocytes plays a huge role in regards to hormonal and metabolic activity that takes place. Adipose cells are increased in size and number in obese conditions, which initiate an immune response. The fat cells release pro-inflammatory adipokines that recruit macrophages to the site. Following this, Tumour Necrosis Factor- alpha (TNF-α) is released and additional immune cells are brought to the site. This constant state of inflammation causes insulin resistance. This is why diabetes is often comorbid with obesity <sup>[17]</sup>.

When analyzing other inflammatory factors, it is evident that increased concentrations of the adipokine Interleukin-6 (IL-6) are positively correlated with increased fat mass and BMI.

When assessing the heritability of obesity, it has a numerical association of 0.7, which is fairly high relative to heritability in schizophrenia (0.81) and autism (0.9).

For the optimal weight loss and health benefits, it is important to adopt lifestyle modifications, such as dietary therapy, physical activity and cognitive behaviour therapy. Typically, health care practitioners recommend their patients to pursue the lifestyle modifications for 6 months. Thereafter, clinicians assess whether they have reached the weight loss goal of 10% from baseline estimates. If patients have attained a satisfactory progression upon evaluation, it is recommended that they maintain their lifestyle modifications for sustainable weight loss results. Regular monitoring is a crucial aspect of ensuring a healthy lifestyle, as the influences of side effects must also be considered. In the case that patients have not attained their recommended weight after 6 months, health care practitioners typically recommend pharmacotherapy and/ or bariatric surgery to achieve their weight loss goal. The most conclusive results are seen when either pharmacotherapy or bariatric surgery are used in conjunction with lifestyle modifications <sup>[25]</sup>. | For the optimal weight loss and health benefits, it is important to adopt lifestyle modifications, such as dietary therapy, physical activity and cognitive behaviour therapy.

The third component of lifestyle modifications is to undergo cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT) to assess one’s current habits and identify factors, stressors or situations that may trigger one’s overeating habits and contribute to their obesity (Figure 11). With a CBT approach, patients suffering from obesity can get help through counseling, support groups, as well as adopt the family-based approach <sup>[25,26]</sup>. | The third component of lifestyle modifications is to undergo cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT) to assess one’s current habits and identify factors, stressors or situations that may trigger one’s overeating habits and contribute to their obesity (Figure 11).

The purpose of the CBT treatment is not to eliminate a psychiatric disorder but to change eating and exercise behaviours <sup>[36]</sup>. This intervention aims to educate individuals on how to change problematic behaviours. Firstly, CBT is based on the cognitive conceptualization of the processes that lead to overeating. Specifically, thoughts and thinking patterns that are considered central to the problem. Secondly, CBT is focused on altering the cognitive and behavioural mechanisms that maintain the problem behaviour. Lastly, CBT uses both cognitive and behavioural techniques to maintain healthy mechanisms <sup>[37]</sup>.

Family-based obesity treatment has also been proven to be a very effective and sustainable approach, especially when treating pediatric obesity. The role of this treatment is to target eating and activity change in both child and parent. Programs using this approach teach parents behavioural skills to facilitate child behaviour change and utilize family resources to improve the efficacy of childhood obesity treatments. Simultaneously treating the child and parent helps create positive relationships between them as they both aim to reach their weight loss goal together <sup>[41,42]</sup>. | Family-based obesity treatment has also been proven to be a very effective and sustainable approach, especially when treating pediatric obesity.

Patients can use it for up to two years (christelle, 10).

This was when orlistat or sibutramine was combined with a reduced-energy diet.

**Bariatric Surgery** | **Bariatric Surgery** | ||
- | Bariatric surgery is the treatment method that is considered for adult patients who have a BMI over 35kg/m2 with severe comorbid diseases such as life-threatening cardiopulmonary problems, severe sleep apnea, severe diabetes mellitus, or those in the severely obese category with a BMI greater than 40 kg/m2. As for teenagers, the Canadian Clinical Practice Guidelines on the Management and Prevention of Obesity in Adults and Children recommends that bariatric surgery to be limited to an appropriately trained and experienced surgical team. After 6 months of using lifestyle modifications, healthcare practitioners assess the health of the patient and evaluate whether a satisfactory progress of weight loss or goal of 10% of body weight has been reached. In the case that satisfactory progress or goal has not been achieved, physicians will consider the eligibility of patients to undergo bariatric surgery. This is only considered if other nonsurgical weight loss attempts have failed. The goal of bariatric surgery is to relieve a patient suffering from obesity from his or her morbid body weight, improve their comorbidity and improve their quality of life. There are different surgical procedures as shown in the diagram. It is important to note that this treatment option requires lifelong medical surveillance(christelle,2). | + | <box 30% round right |>{{:surgical_procedures.png|}}</box|Figure 13: Four highly used surgical procedures used to treating obesity from http://www.cmaj.ca/content/suppl/2007/09/04/176.8.S1.DC1/obesity-lau-onlineNEW.pdf> |

+ | **Summary of Treatment Options** | ||
+ | |||
+ | As seen in figure 14, there are different approaches to treating obesity. First, it is important to set a weight loss goal to reduce body weight by approximately 10% from baseline during the first six months of treatment. Healthcare practitioners typically recommend their patients to first undergo lifestyle modifications: proper nutrition, physical fitness, and cognitive behaviour therapy. After six months of treatment, healthcare practitioners will assess the patient’s progress and determine whether satisfactory progress or weight loss goal has been reached. In the case that it has been reached, the patient would be closely monitored on a regular basis to make sure that their weight is maintained. In the event that satisfactory progress is not attained, physicians will assess the patient’s eligibility to either undergo pharmacotherapy or bariatric surgery. Physicians typically opt for bariatric treatment in the event that nonsurgical treatments have failed. It is important to note that best weight loss and maintenance results are achieved when pharmacotherapy or bariatric treatment is used in conjunction with lifestyle modifications. | ||
