This research study draws upon co-constructed data to describe and interpret overweight nurses' experiences of their interactions with overweight patients. Within the limited number of research studies that investigate the worldview of overweight nurses, it is suggested that overweight nurses may have more empathy with overweight patients, who often receive prejudicial and discriminatory care. The objectives of the study, using a qualitative hermeneutical methodology, underpinned by Gadamerian philosophy and a relativist ontological stance, were to describe and interpret the experiences and ac

Obesity and Periodontitis are two common chronic inflammatory diseases. Based upon the hypothesis that obesity associated systemic inflammation may affect susceptibility to chronic infectious diseases like periodontitis, the aim of this PhD programme was to investigate the association between overweight/obesity and periodontitis.

Overweight and stress interact in complex ways. Excess weight promotes chronic low-grade inflammatory states that can mobilise the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis. HPA axis activation resulting from frequent stress situations can modify energy uptake and expenditure. Separately, both conditions have been linked to changes in brain integrity and executive performance. The organism adapts to situations of caloric surplus through boosting immune, neuroendocrine and cardiometabolic systems to restore energy homeostasis. The allostatic load model establishes that the cumulative effects of

Background: Childhood overweight has become a growing public health challenge. It has been suggested that inadequate or excessive gestational weight gain (GWG) may result in permanent metabolic and neuronal changes in the developing fetus. Although effects of GWG on birth weight are established, less is known about its effects on the long-term weight status of the child. In 2009, the Institute of Medicine (IOM) and the National Research Council (NRC) published recommendations for trimester-specific and total GWG depending on maternal pre-pregnancy body mass index (BMI).

Abstract Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is defined as disturbed glucose metabolism first recognized during pregnancy. Untreated GDM increases the risk of obstetric and neonatal complications, such as fetal overgrowth (macrosomia). The first-line treatment of GDM includes diet therapy and the self-monitoring of blood glucose concentrations and, if needed, pharmacotherapy, which is most commonly accomplished with insulin. Oral anti-diabetic agents such as metformin have recently been under investigation. GDM increases the risk of developing overt diabetes, metabolic syndrome and cardiovascu
