This document discusses canine obesity and its relationship to inflammation and oxidative stress. It begins by providing statistics on the prevalence of obesity in dogs in the United States and Brazil. It then explains that obesity causes inflammation of adipose tissue, which leads to the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines and reactive oxygen species, causing oxidative stress. The document reviews the physiology of adipose tissue and how obesity alters it, triggering an inflammatory response. Specifically, it causes the recruitment of macrophages and T-cells that secrete inflammatory cytokines. This chronic low-grade inflammation is linked to metabolic diseases. The review also examines several key pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory adipokines involved in obesity, such as TNF-α, C-reactive
In the UK, rates of obesity have increased by 30% in women, 40% in men, and 50% in children within the last decade resulting in over 25% of adults classified as obese today.
Obesity, in particular central obesity, is the dominant risk factor for insulin resistance, metabolic syndrome and type II diabetes. Evidence supporting obesity as an inflammation condition continues to grow and this is directly linked to the development of insulin resistance.
This webinar discusses novel approaches for the treatment and prevention of the common morbidities associated with obesity, specifically insulin resistance and type II diabetes, through targeting obesity-induced inflammatory processes.

Despite positive developments in reducing malnutrition over the last few decades, hundreds of millions of people globally still do not consume adequate amounts of essential vitamins and minerals in their diets to sustain good health and development. This is referred to as “Hidden Hunger”, a major public health problem that is holding back entire communities.
“Nutraceutical” is any substance that may be considered as a food or part of food and provides medical or health benefits, encompassing, prevention and treatment of diseases.

Evidence shows that honey improves glycemic control in diabetes mellitus. Besides its hypoglycemic effect, studies indicate that honey ameliorates lipid abnormalities
in rats and humans with diabetes. This review also validates the beneficial effects of oligosaccharides on various abnormalities commonly associated with these disorders. Based on the evidence that honey contains oligosaccharides, we hypothesize that oligosaccharides present in honey might contribute to the antidiabetic and other health-related beneficial effects of honey.

In this modern civilization, the society is running through a so called fast life style. Under the mask of fast life style we are continuously struggling to hide our faults in daily lives. As a result of which the entire society have become submerged under the dirty dump of diseases, a non sense habits. Among these dirts, obesity is one of the major threat to modern society, which is also a principal contributing factors of most of the diseases of this era. But unfortunately in most of the cases it is a self made condition. Obesity is not only a threatening condition but also a common manifestation of many other systemic diseases. Obesity also increases the risk of other diseases. Therefore World Health Organization' WHO defined that "obesity is a global problem". This paper deals with obesity, it causes pathogenesis, prevention and management and differential diagnosis method. This paper will admonish the society how we allow obesity in our life carelessly, how to get relief from it and the fate by this fatal condition.

Healthcare Perceptions of Injectable Therapies for Diabetes Mellitus Type 2CrimsonPublishersIOD
Diabetes mellitus is considered a global epidemic, with financial impacts beyond the cost of treatment. Multiple treatment options are available;
however, many healthcare providers lack knowledge or face perceived barriers to prescription. While the American Diabetes Association publishes
yearly guideline updates for the management and care of diabetes, many health care providers are unfamiliar with these guidelines. These guidelines
recommend insulin and other inject able therapies early in the disease progression, yet the DAWN study demonstrated that physicians delay the initiation
of insulin therapy. This paper will review the knowledge gaps, health care provider barriers, and perceptions of inject able therapies. From this review,
more knowledge is needed by prescribers in the initiation and management of injectable therapies to help patients successfully reach glycemic targets.
Management of Excess Weight and Obesity: A Global PerspectiveCrimsonPublishersIOD
Non-communicable diseases (NCDs), especially, hypertension, excess weight, obesity, metabolic syndrome, type-2 diabetes, and vascular diseases,
have increased rapidly in the last two decades and have reached an epidemic status worldwide. Some experts have compared this increase in the
incidence of these diseases as “tsunamis”. Tsunamis’ are seasonal and unpredictable whereas, these diseases are predictable and not seasonal. So, what
are we going to do about this situation? Are we going to sit and wait for some miracle to happen? What are the member nations of the United Nations,
World Health Organization, NCD Task Force going to do about this, besides writing and publishing scary reports of future economic and healthcare
disasters? In this overview, we would like to discuss briefly the salient findings on this topic, initiate a healthy dialogue, request suggestions, positive
comments, and offer few suggestions.
Pharmacologic Weight Loss: An Underutilized Practice in the Fight Against Obe...CrimsonPublishersIOD
Obesity is considered one of the most contemporary threats to non-communicable disease such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes, musculoskeletal disorders and even some types of cancers. Its worldwide prevalence has nearly tripled between 1975 and 2016. In 2016, more than 1.9 billion adults aged 18 years and older were categorized as overweight, and of these over 650 million adults were obese. However, Weight management medications (WMM) are currently underutilized as an adjunct to behavioral and lifestyle interventions. By way of example, only 2% of eligible veterans received prescriptions for pharmacologic weight loss in the 2014-2015 fiscal years, and up to 1% of obese U.S. individuals filled a prescription for a WMM between 2009-2013. There are currently five FDA-approved medications for long-term weight loss medications. We analyzed 24 randomized clinical trials of the five drugs and interpreted findings. Of those 24, lorcaserin (Belviq®), naltrexone and bupropion (Contrave®), and phentermine and topiramate (Qsymia®) had four studies each, while liraglutide (Saxenda®), and orlistat (Xenical®) had six studies each. Underutilization of pharmacologic weight corrective therapies that have been statistically and clinically proven to be valuable tools in reducing obesity and its related risk factors. Studies of the five FDA-approved drugs have demonstrated clinically significant positive effects on weight loss with differing effects on both cardiovascular and glycemic markers/risk factors.
Microalbuminuria in Saudi Adults with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus_Crimson Publis...CrimsonPublishersIOD
Background: Diabetes mellitus is among the most common chronic non-communicable diseases. The development of microalbuminuria in type 1 diabetes increases the risk for renal and cardiovascular disease.
Methods: A cross sectional study was conducted at the Primary Health Care Clinics at King Fahad Armed Forces Hospital, Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. A total of 334 Saudi with type 1 diabetes were randomly selected.
Results: Total of 334 patients with T2DM included in this study; 102 (30.5%) male and 232 (69.5%) female with mean age 25.8±3.4. MA was present in 99 (29.6%). MA was not significantly more prevalent in female (69.4%) with female predominance (sex ratio male: female) 1:2.3. HTN with MA was significantly more prevalent in 51(51.5%) of MA group with odd ratio 1.7 (1.2-2.4), p=0.001 with no siginificant difference between both gender. Patients with MA have significant higher HbA1c than patients with normal buminuria and there was a significant difference between gender (p< 0.0001) and when compared to HbA1c groups (p=0.002).
Conclusion: The frequency of microalbuminuria in patients with type 1 diabetes in this study is high. It is mandatory to have adequate diagnostic, therapeutic and educational resources in addition to competent physicians who can manage microalbuminuria in diabetic patients by using a continuing, comprehensive and coordinated approach.
