Abstract:
Over the past several years, India has seen the incidence of obesity double or quadruple due to economic expansion, industrialisation, motorised transportation, urbanisation, a more sedentary lifestyle, and a nutritional change to prepare dishes that are rich in calories. Many things contribute to becoming overweight or obese since bodyweight is influenced by various factors, including genetics, metabolism, behaviour, the environment, culture, and socioeconomics. When evaluating the risk of various diseases, the quantity, location, and distribution of fat and obesity in the human body are sign

Abstract:
In recent years awareness of childhood obesity as a clinical and public health problem has increased. However, a number of important issues related to childhood obesity were unclear when this thesis began. The aims of this thesis were as follows: 1. To estimate the prevalence of obesity in British and Iranian children. 2. To assess the strengths and weaknesses of the body mass index (BMI) as a way of identifying obese children/estimating obesity prevalence. 3. To investigate the factors associated with early 'adiposity rebound'. 4. To identify risk factors for obesity in British children. This

Abstract:
Obesity is a significant public health problem in the United Kingdom and many other parts of the world, including some low-income settings. Although obesity prevalence has been rising for several decades, governments have been slow to implement policies that may have an impact at a population level. Numerous socio-demographic factors have been linked with obesity, but are highly intercorrelated, and identifying relevant factors or at-risk population groups is difficult. This thesis uses a graphical modelling approach, specifically Bayesian networks, to model the joint distribution of socio-dem

Abstract:
Childhood obesity is a recognised increasing public health problem in Iran, but no evidence for effective prevention strategies is available. The aim was to inform the development of an obesity prevention intervention for Iranian school children. A quantitative analysis was used to examine the pattern and associated factors with obesity and a qualitative study explored the beliefs of parents and school staff about the causes of childhood obesity and potential interventions. Overall 28.2% of the children were overweight or obese and there was a non-significant tendency for increased energy inta

Abstract:
Obesity, defined as a body mass index of 30 kg/m2 or more, has reached epidemic proportions globally, with more than one-and-a-half billion adults overweight and at least 500 million clinically obese. The prevalence of obesity in the UK has increased by over 300% since 1980. In the UK 24% of adult women are obese and one in six women at an antenatal booking clinic is obese. Obesity has the potential for several detrimental effects on both the mother and the baby. Obese mothers are more likely to develop pre-eclampsia and eclampsia, gestational diabetes and venous thromboembolism. In addition,

Abstract:
Obesity is recognised as the leading cause of malnutrition in cats and dogs (Legrand-Defretin 1994) and is reported to be one of the most important and frequently seen welfare issues in small animal practice (Yeates and Main 2011). Despite the recognised burden of overweight/obesity on the companion animal population, a review of the published literature identified several gaps. This thesis aimed to address three of the those gaps. Gap A: No published national prevalence estimates for cats, dogs and rabbits in Great Britain were available and no studies had explored whether prevalence varied a

Abstract:
Background: Malnutrition, manifesting as obesity in women and under-nutrition in children, is a major public health problem in South Africa. There is a multitude of epidemiological evidence reflecting the extent and health effects of these problems, specifically among the African communities. However, at a family level, there is a paucity of information regarding the relationship between obesity in mothers and under-nutrition in children. Studies set to explore this relationship and determinants of body size and nutrition from a cultural perspective are long overdue. Such studies would assist

Abstract:
The increase in the clinical manifestations of coronary artery disease (CAD) since the 1920s cannot be explained solely in terms of atheroma. Another major process such as thrombogenesis must also be involved. Pathological studies show that thrombosis contributes not only to myocardial infarction but to nearly all cases of sudden coronary death as well. Epidemiologically, it is the coagulation system rather than platelet function that has so far been more rewarding in attempting to identify characteristics of the haemostatic system that are associated with the subsequent risk of CAD.
