Dr. Lee M. Kaplan, a renowned expert in the field of Gastroenterology Clinics, takes the helm as the guest editor for this insightful issue on Management of Obesity, Part I: Overview and Basic Mechanisms. It is disheartening to note that a significant portion of the world's population resides in countries where being overweight and obese poses a greater threat to life than being underweight. This preventable disease not only leads to a cascade of health complications but also induces significant stress on individuals, as well as having a profound impact on global economies and healthcare systems. This issue, the first of two, delves into the fundamental mechanisms and contributors to obesity, along with exploring the disparities in access and quality of obesity care.
Within its pages, readers will find a comprehensive array of 16 practice-oriented topics, encompassing various forms of obesity, genetic influences, health complications associated with obesity, the interplay between obesity and gastrointestinal diseases, and the challenges of achieving equal access to and high-quality obesity care. The issue also features in-depth clinical reviews that provide actionable insights for clinical practice. Under the guidance of experienced editors in the field, authors have synthesized and distilled the latest research and practice guidelines to create clinically significant, topic-based reviews.
This issue of Gastroenterology Clinics serves as a valuable resource for healthcare professionals, researchers, and students seeking to stay abreast of the latest developments in the management of obesity. By presenting a comprehensive and evidence-based approach, it aims to empower practitioners with the knowledge and tools necessary to effectively address this pressing public health concern.
