Mamun, Author ; A. Peeters, Author . - 2006 . - 1264-73. Languages : English (eng) in Obesity > 14(2006)7 [07/01/2006] . - 1264-73 Descriptors: Classification W 1 Serials. Periodicals Indexation Aging ; Body Mass Index ; Cardiovascular diseases ; Cost of Illness ; Female ; Humans ; Journal Article ; Life Expectancy ; Male ; Middle Aged ; Myocardial infarction ; Obesity ; Overweight ; Peer Review ; Risk Assessment ; Risk Factors ; Stroke ; Time Factors ; United States Abstract: OBJECTIVE: To determine the differences in number of years lived free of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and number of years lived with CVD between men and women who were obese, pre-obese, or normal weight at 45 years of age. RESEARCH METHODS AND PROCEDURES: We constructed multistate life tables for CVD, myocardial infarction, and stroke, using data from 2551 enrollees (1130 men) in the Framingham Heart Study who were 45 years of age. RESULTS: Obesity and pre-obesity were associated with fewer number of years free of CVD, myocardial infarction, and stroke and an increase in the number of years lived with these diseases. Forty-five-year-old obese men with no CVD survived 6.0 years [95% confidence interval (CI), 4.1; 8.1] fewer than their normal weight counterparts, whereas, for women, the difference between obese and normal weight subjects was 8.4 years (95% CI: 6.2; 10.8). Obese men and women lived with CVD 2.7 (95% CI: 1.0; 4.4) and 1.4 years (95% CI: -0.3; 3.2) longer, respectively, than normal weight individuals. DISCUSSION: In addition to reducing life expectancy, obesity before middle age is associated with a reduction in the number of years lived free of CVD and an increase in the number of years lived with CVD. Such information is paramount for preventive and therapeutic decision-making by individuals and practitioners alike.

The Handbook of Obesity Intervention for the Lifespan guides professionals in meeting this complex challenge with a multidisciplinary palette of evidence-based interventions that can be tailored to men and women across the lifespan, regardless of background. This unique reference combines salient research data and hands-on clinical applications for use with overweight patients, from the very young to the very old, and includes a "treatment resources" section with extra materials to bolster therapy—all geared toward respectful, encouraging treatment and lasting weight-loss results.Key features of the Handbook: * Review of the obesity literature, both pediatric and adult. * Exercise interventions for children and adults. * Lifestyle interventions for adolescents, adults, and seniors. * Weight-related cultural issues throughout the lifespan. * Bariatric surgery: when is it indicated? How successful is it? * The ten critical steps to healthy weight loss. * Clinical resources, patient self-help materials, and useful websites.With excess weight contributing to some 300,000 deaths in the U.S. each year, the Handbook of Obesity Intervention for the Lifespan will be welcomed—and consulted frequently—by clinical and health psychologists, psychiatrists, primary care providers, and nutritionists. Contents note: Part I: Childhood Obesity. Childhood obesity literature review. Cultural issues in childhood obesity. Practical guides for treating childhood obesity.

Incorporating the catering sector in nutrition policies of WHO European Region / Carl Lachat in Public Health Nutrition, 12(2009)3 ([03/02/2009])  

[article] Incorporating the catering sector in nutrition policies of WHO European Region : is there a good recipe? [printed text] / Carl Lachat, Author ; Dominique Roberfroid , Author ; Lieven Huybregts ; John Van Camp ; Patrick Kolsteren . - 2009 . - 316-324. Languages : English (eng) in Public Health Nutrition > 12(2009)3 [03/02/2009] . - 316-324 Descriptors: Classification W 1 Serials. Periodicals Indexation Advertising ; Epidemiology ; European Union ; Food Labeling ; Food Services ; Great Britain ; Health Promotion ; Humans ; Journal Article ; Nutrition Policy ; Obesity ; Peer Review ; Public Health ; Social Responsibility ; World Health Organization Abstract: OBJECTIVE: To review how countries of the WHO European Region address issues related to the catering sector in their nutrition policy plans. DESIGN: Documentary analysis of national nutrition policy documents from the policy database of the WHO Regional Office for Europe by a multidisciplinary research team. Recurring themes were identified and related information extracted in an analysis matrix. Case studies were performed for realistic evaluation. SETTING: Fifty-three member states of the WHO European Region in September 2007. RESULTS: The catering sector is a formally acknowledged stakeholder in national nutrition policies in about two-thirds of countries of the European region. Strategies developed for the catering sector are directed mainly towards labelling of foods and prepared meals, training of health and catering staff, and advertising. Half of the countries reviewed propose dialogue structures with the catering sector for the implementation of the policy. However, important policy fields remain poorly developed, such as strategies for stimulating and monitoring actual implementation of policies. Others are simply lacking, such as strategies to ensure affordability of healthy out-of-home eating or to enhance accountability of stakeholders. It is also striking that strategies for the private sector are rarely developed. CONCLUSIONS: Important policy issues are still embryonic. As evidence is accumulating on the impact of out-of-home eating on the increase of overweight, member states are advised to urgently develop operational frameworks and instruments for participatory planning and evaluation of stakeholders in public health nutrition policy.
