Obesity increases the risks of diabetes, hypertension, and cardiovascular diseases, ultimately contributing to mortality. Korean Society for Study (KSSO) was established improve management obesity through research education; that end, Committee Clinical Practice Guidelines KSSO reviews systemic evidence using expert panels develop clinical guidelines. The practice guidelines were revised in 2018 National Health Insurance Service checkup data from 2006 2015. Following these guidelines, we...

The phentermine, an appetite suppressant, has been widely applied in Korea since 2004.However, there have relatively few reports about the efficacy and safety of phentermine Korea.The aim this study is to verify effect on weight reduction Korean patients.This randomized, double-blind, placebocontrolled had performed between February July, 2005, Seoul 68 healthy obese adults whose body mass index was 25 kg/m 2 or greater.They received phentermine-HCl 37.5 mg placebo once daily with behavioral...
Most studies have reported that circulating levels of adiponectin are negatively correlated with the body mass index (BMI), and hypoadiponectinemia is related to cardiometabolic disorders; however, not all obese subjects hypoadiponectinemia. The present study investigated fat distribution, i.e. subcutaneous area (SFA) visceral (VFA), in subjects.Sixty-eight Korean underwent distribution by computed tomography (CT) scan laboratory tests including total (APN) high molecular weight...
We performed targeted metabolomics with machine learning (ML)-based interpretation to identify metabolites that distinguish the progression of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) in a cohort. Plasma analysis was conducted healthy control subjects (n = 25) and patients NAFL 42) steatohepatitis (NASH, n 19) by gas chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) liquid chromatography-MS/MS as well RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) analyses on tissues from varying stages NAFLD 12). The resulting...
Background: We aimed to evaluate whether composite blood biomarkers including aldo-keto reductase family 1 member B10 (AKR1B10) and cytokeratin 18 (CK-18; a nonalcoholic steatohepatitis [NASH] marker) have clinically applicable performance for the diagnosis of NASH, advanced liver fibrosis, high-risk NASH (NASH+significant fibrosis).Methods: A total 116 subjects healthy control patients with biopsy-proven fatty disease (NAFLD) were analyzed assess blood-based imaging-based either singly or...
Referral for both lifestyle and surgical interventions are recommended as part of the clinical management obesity in general practice. However, current practice falls short this. This qualitative study aimed to describe factors influencing practitioners' (GPs) referral intentions their obese patients.Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 24 GPs from four geographically different areas New South Wales, Australia about patients. A analysis was applied using inductive thematic...
Background: Several noninvasive tools are available for the assessment of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) including clinical and blood biomarkers, transient elastography (TE), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) techniques, such as proton density fat fraction (MRI-PDFF) (MRE). In present study, we aimed to evaluate whether (MR)-based examinations better discriminate pathophysiologic features fibrosis progression in NAFLD than other methods.Methods: A total 133 subjects (31 healthy...
Obesity, hypertension, and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) are worldwide epidemics that inflict burdens on both public health care costs. Self-management plays an important role in the proper management of these 3 chronic diseases, this context, mobile (mHealth) can be a cost-effective self-management tool.The aim pilot study is to evaluate effects integrative mHealth approach for obesity, T2DM body fat, blood pressure, glucose levels demonstrate clinical outcomes. The participants were...
Background: Deer velvet (DV) extract, a traditional remedy in Eastern Asian medicine, holds potential as an immune modulator. This study aimed to investigate the effects of enzymatically digested DV YHC-BE-2040 (HENKIV ® ), on cell-mediated immunity randomized controlled trial. Methods: Healthy adults (N = 120), aged 40 70, were randomly assigned receive either high-dose (HD) or low-dose (LD) placebo daily for 8 weeks. The subjects instructed orally administer provided intervention once day,...
The aim of this study was to develop consensus definitions and diagnostic criteria for sarcopenic obesity tailored Asia-Oceania populations, a condition characterized by reduced skeletal muscle mass function with excess adipose tissue. Experts from various fields formed working group under the Association Study Obesity (AOASO) International Gerontology Geriatrics Asia/Oceania Region (IAGG-AOR). convened four meetings, employing Delphi technique achieve on management strategies obesity....
Background: Despite the considerable number of trials and meta-analyses studies on intermittent energy restriction (IER), it is not preferred to continuous (CER) by majority obesity specialists.In this meta-analysis, we compare effects IER CER using evidence from randomized controlled (RCTs).Methods: A systematic electronic literature search was conducted find RCTs published between January 1, 2011, December 31, 2021 that directly compared for an active weight loss period at least 12 weeks...
The use of alternative medicine for smoking cessation have been increasing steadily in recent years.A series clinical group studies was performed to clarify the effect, outcome and success rate an acupuncture treatment cessation.This study conducted four weeks using 238 students at 2 high schools.The subjects were separated into two groups: 159 treated with on anti-smoking acupoints ear, which is known be effective (case group), 79 other sites ear (control group).The alternately administered...
Human placental extract (HPE) is a traditional medicine that has been used for the symptomatic treatment of liver disease without any verifying clinical evidence. This study aimed to evaluate efficacy and safety HPE in patients with alcoholic or nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (ASH NASH). We designed this trial as multicenter, open-label, randomized, comparative noninferiority improve reliability analyses. The enrollment criteria were limited ASH NASH serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT)...
Recent living condition improvements, changes in dietary habits, and reductions physical activity are contributing to an increase metabolic syndrome symptoms including diabetes obesity. Through such societal developments, humankind is continuously exposed diseases as diabetes, the number of victims increasing. This study investigated Cordyceps militaris water extract (CMW)-induced glucose uptake HepG2 cells effect CMW treatment on metabolism.Colorimetric assay kits were used determine...
