Objective: To determine the prevalence and related factors of overweight and obesity among high level secondary school adolescent in Mwanza Tanzania. Methodology: A cross-sectional study conducted among 381 high school adolescents in Nyamagana, Mwanza in October 2014. Obesity and overweight were measured using height and weight of each student. The demographic, social and nutritional history; life style information and pattern of dietary intake were interviewed verbally. Result: The overall prevalence of obesity and overweight were 2.6% and 14.2% respectively. The prevalence of (0.8% overweight, 0% obese) in adolescents those residing out of school campus was lower than overweight (13.4%) and obesity (2.6%) residing in boarding school. The meal frequency, fruits, meat, and vegetables consumption were statistically significant with the p value of P<0.05. Conclusion: adolescent’s obesity and overweight are emerging health problem we need to plan and implement effective preventive strategies to stop this epidemic.","PeriodicalId":243288,"journal":{"name":"Journal of obesity and weight loss therapy","volume":"135 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-10-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132691770","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This survey had for objective to determine the frequency of the obesity at the parturient, to value the impact of the obesity on the childbirth by caesarean and the complications postoperative immediate in the teaching hospitals of Cotonou. Patients and method: We did a prospective, comparative and analytic survey of January 13 to April 13, 2012. Eight hundred ninety-one consecutive parturient having had a Caesarean was include. We studied the anesthetic techniques, the techniques of control of the aerial ways, the number of necessary tests for the tracheal intubation, the complications and aftercare of the first 48 hours. A comparison has been made according to the BMI. The obesity has been defined by a BMI ≥ 30 kg/m2. The parturient has been classified in two groups: Non obese: BMI ≤ 30 kg/m2, obese: BMI ≥ 30. Results: The obesity has been recovered at 286 parturient is 32.10%. There were 703 (78.90%) Caesareans in emergency and 188 (21.09%) programmed Caesareans. The obese parturient also required more frequently several lumbar punctures (p<0.001) at the time of the spinal anesthesia and more of conversion of the spinal anesthesia into an anesthesia general (p=0.008). The postoperative complications: laryngeal pain, back pain and suppuration of the wound were more frequent at the obese parturient. Conclusion: The obesity is frequent at the parturient in Benin. The post-operative complications are more frequent after the Caesarean at the obese parturient.","PeriodicalId":243288,"journal":{"name":"Journal of obesity and weight loss therapy","volume":"38 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-10-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123823770","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Method: Prospective study in 2 years of anthropometric and functional parameters breathing in MO, determining age, body mass index (BMI), waist, hip, wai/hip index, blood gas values, flow-volume curve, plethysmography, diffusion of CO and maximum inspiratory (MIP) and expiratory (PEM) pressures. The results between men and women and the relationship between respiratory parameters and wai/hip index are compared. Results: We studied 171 patients, 80 men and 91 women, with 44 ± 12 years, weighing 130 ± 22 kg, with BMI of 48 ± 6 Kg/m2 and wai/hip index of 0.989-0.097 ± 48. There is a decrease in lung function parameters in the MO, showing men MIP worse, but better MEP, than women. Hypoxemia is common (55%), related to an older and worse flows and static volumes. Hypercapnia is 15% more common in men, and is related to the decrease in expiratory flows and increased residual volume. Wai/hip index does not correlate with respiratory parameters in the MO. Conclusions: Morbid obesity affects respiratory blood gas and has functional alterations. There are differences between men and women in the presence of hypercapnia and maximal respiratory pressures, without influencing the type of obesity messured with the wai/hip index.","PeriodicalId":243288,"journal":{"name":"Journal of obesity and weight loss therapy","volume":"142 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-09-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127321330","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Meanwhile, alterations in testicular metabolism induced by high-energy diets (HED) may induce mitochondrial dysfunction, which is closely associated to reactive oxygen species (ROS) and oxidative stress. Reactive oxygen species (ROS)-mediated damage to sperm is a significant contributing pathology in 30–80% of infertility cases. Vitamin E is considered to be the most effective liposolouble antioxidant found in biological systems. Here we evaluated the protective role of vitamin E against obesity-induced morphological changes in testes from albino rats fed different diets. Animals were divided into four groups: Group 1: standard controlled diet (SCD); Group 2: positive control group fed a high-fat diet (HFD); Group 3: αTF+HFD fed HFD supplemented with 100 mg/kg vitamin E (αTF); Group 4: αTF+SCD, fed 100 mg/kg αTF and SCD. Rats were weighed before and after the 10 week feeding period to determine changes in body weight (BWG %). After collecting blood from an intracardiac puncture under deep anesthesia, all animals were sacrificed and samples were analyzed by light microscopy. A HFD appeared to cause spermatocyte and Leydig cell damage, as well as decreases in testicular weight and function and testosterone production. Vitamin E supplementation promoted Leydig cell repair and reduced damage induced by a HFD, suggesting that vitamin E is an important dietary component to mitigate the negative effects of a high fat diet.","PeriodicalId":243288,"journal":{"name":"Journal of obesity and weight loss therapy","volume":"133 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-09-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122976741","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
