Synopsis

OBESITY-RELATED COMPLICATIONS
Mechanisms, Clinical Consequences, Assessment, Prevention, and Integrated Management
Understand the Science. Recognize the Complications. Strengthen Your Clinical Judgment.
Obesity is more than excess body weight. It is a complex, chronic disease associated with serious complications affecting nearly every major organ system. Understanding these complications requires more than memorizing medical conditions—it demands a deeper knowledge of disease mechanisms, clinical manifestations, diagnostic assessment, prevention, and patient-centered management.
OBESITY-RELATED COMPLICATIONS is a comprehensive medical textbook that connects essential scientific principles with practical clinical understanding. Designed for healthcare students, educators, and professionals, this resource explores how obesity contributes to multisystem disease and how these complications can be recognized, assessed, prevented, and managed.
Featuring 25 detailed chapters organized into five major parts, the textbook provides a structured journey from foundational pathophysiology to complex clinical complications and integrated healthcare approaches.
WHAT YOU WILL LEARN

• Biological Mechanisms: Understand adipose tissue dysfunction, visceral fat accumulation, chronic inflammation, insulin resistance, and metabolic disturbances.
• Cardiometabolic Disorders: Explore type 2 diabetes, dyslipidemia, hypertension, atherosclerosis, and heart failure.
• Organ-System Complications: Examine liver disease, chronic kidney disease, gastrointestinal disorders, obstructive sleep apnea, and respiratory dysfunction.
• Musculoskeletal and Reproductive Health: Learn about osteoarthritis, sarcopenic obesity, mobility limitations, reproductive disorders, pregnancy-related complications, and obesity-associated cancers.
