7^th International Conference on Obesity and Chronic Diseases November 28-29, 2024 Bali, Indonesia

Obesity is one of the major causes for cardiovascular diseases; Obesity is associated with an increased cardiovascular risk itself by atrial enlargement, ventricular enlargement. It leads to several structural and functional changes of the heart, which causes heart failure and the altered myocardial structure increases the risk of atrial fibrillation and sudden cardiac death. By the Mechanisms through which obesity increases CVD risk involves drastic changes in body composition that can affect haemodynamic functions too.

• Hypertension
• Coronary artery disease
• Atherosclerosis
• Dyslipidaemia
• Glucose intolerance
• Obstructive sleep apnea
• Thromboembolic disease
• Inflammation in cardiovascular disease.

Obesity has been emerged as an important risk factor for the respiratory diseases due to adoption of sedentary lifestyles and increased pollution. In obese people, Fat tissue accumulation damages ventilatory function in adults and children. In other terms, Thoracic restriction associated with obesity is usually mild and is attributed to the mechanical effects of fat on the diaphragm and the chest wall resulting obstructive diaphragm excursion and reduced thoracic compliance. 

• Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)
• Asthma
• Obstructive sleep apnea
• Obesity hypoventilation syndrome. 

It is a well-known fact that overweight (having a BMI of 30 or above) are at greater risk of developing metabolic chronic disorders like type 2 diabetes mellitus, insulin resistance. Accumulation of adipose tissue affects metabolism by secreting hormones, glycerol, and other substances including leptin, cytokines, adiponectin, and proinflammatory substances, and non-esterified fatty acids which are involved in the development of insulin resistance and disruption of fat metabolism. And the secretion of these substances will be increased leading to diabetes in obese individuals.

• Bariatric surgery
• Malabsorption
• Cardiovascular risk factors

Auto Immune diseases mainly related with decreased metabolic rate, decreased thermogenesis, and interrelate with a higher body mass index (BMI). As over weight is linked to many endocrine abnormalities including thyroid dysfunction .In obese people due to excess secretion of hormones, it influences the activity of thyroid hormones and coincides with dysfunctions of thyroid immunity and thyroid gland.

• Hypothyroidism
• Thyroid dysfunction and body weight

Tumour cells are initiated and progressed in obese by combined effects of chronic low level inflammatory environment of adipose tissue causing DNA damaging, reduced DNA repair and the endocrine alterations leading to cancer, and Fat tissue produces excess amounts of oestrogen.

• Oesophageal adenocarcinoma
• Breast cancer
• Gastric cardio cancer
• Pancreatic cancer
• Ovarian cancer
• Colorectal cancer
• Kidney cancer
• Endometrial cancer
• Thyroid cancer
• Liver cancer
• Gallbladder cancer

HIV-infected patients who underwent the antiretroviral therapy (CART) can live longer but comorbidities emerge earlier and more frequently. Among them metabolic and cardiovascular diseases are two leading causes of death for HIV-infected patients. As Overweight cause risk factors like reducing immunity through various auto immune disorders and chronic diseases in the general population that increasingly affect HIV-infected people. Hence obesity seems to have a detrimental effect on immune recovery after CART initiation.

• Serology
• Plasma viral load
• Heterosexual transmission

Moreover, obesity in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases were associated with several other health consequences like adipose tissue dysfunction, increased work of breathing the additive effects can make it a struggle to breathe and cause dyspnea -shortness of breath. Obesity also increases the risk of pulmonary disease, stroke, heart attack, and dementia and others like Transient nocturnal desaturation is due to decreased blood oxygen levels

• Pneumonia
• Influence of hypoxia
• Hypoventilation syndrome
• Night time breathing –sleep apnea

Overweight and obese kids are the result of hereditary applications and other environmental factors. The child would going to remain hefty in adolescence and affected with further complications like diabetes, cardiovascular diseases and others by the pattern of Physiology and genetic history of child.

• Childhood obesity
• Early secondary growth ( Maturation)
• Comorbidities of Obesity in the Young
• Obesity and Gastrointestinal Disorders in Children
• Effects of Diabetes, Insulin Resistance & Oxidative Stress on young ones.

It is the nutritional disorder among children and adolescents, according to the global report, around 20-24% children are under the cover of obesity and also the prevalence of obesity related risks like particularly obesity related–sleep disorders and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease are mostly visible in children in past few years, and type2 diabetes in paediatric patients.

• Binge eating disorder
• Homeostasis
• Pharmacotherapeutic interventions
• Endocrine disorders in children

Due to excess body mass there baby growth and function will be effected, The major risk factor for obese pregnant women is difficulty during vaginal delivery and also there is a risk of miscarriage, and a very high need of cesarean section and involves risk complications like C-section wounds and infections.

• Premature births
• Gestational diabetes
• High blood pressure
• Cardiac dysfunction
• Foetal macrosomia
• Metabolic syndrome
• Ultrasound defects.

Genetics contribute a one third part of obesity with the discovery of more than 50 genes that are strongly associated with it. The presence or absence of genetic factors tells susceptibility to obesity. In general, people who have obesity have multiple genes that susceptible them to gain excess weight. Such genes are the fat mass and obesity-associated genes (FTO gene), which are found in up to 50% of the population.

• Leptin deficiency
• Rare-single gene defects
• POMC deficiency
• More tendencies to store body fat.

Obesity or overweight is obtained due to lack of physical inactivity, improper eating patterns, increased stress levels, not enough sleep. Over weight leads to several health complications like chronic diseases and others. The risk factors associated with obesity are of 2 kinds, some can be altered like unhealthy life style habits and environment. And others are like long-term unaltered such as family history, hereditary, race and ethnicity and sex.

• High blood glucose (diabetes)
• Cardiovascular diseases
• Chronic respiratory diseases
• High  blood cholesterol and triglycerides
• Bone and joint complications
• Gallstones and liver problems
• Depression and mental illness
• Sexual problems

Track 14: Ozone therapy for Obesity and Chronic Diseases

There are numerous advantages to using an ozone sauna. At Nouveau Health & Wellness, we frequently advise patients seeking weight loss and improved exercise regimen efficacy to pursue this course of treatment. But it can also enhance health in a variety of ways. Thanks to the action of ozone on hemoglobin and red blood cells (erythrocytes), this very successful technology allows for the reduction of the chain of fatty acids, which promotes the clearance of fat cells and improves tissue oxygenation.

Liposuction is not an overall weight loss method or a treatment, just a kind of cosmetic surgery, which alters the body shape by breaking or sucking up the body fat which is undesirable. It is mainly worked on the abdomen, thighs, buttocks, neck, chin, upper and backs of the arms, and calves. The unwanted fat is removed through a hollow instrument, named as cannula, which is applied with powerful, high pressure vacuum and inserted under the skin.

• Power-assisted liposuction (PAS)
• Laser Assisted Lipolysis (LAL)
• Lymphedema
• Gynecomastia
• Lipo dystrophy syndrome

Overweight can be under control through weight loss supplements and drugs, the  prescript weight loss medications  along with a low calorie diet and the doctors approved exercise plan will give the best outcome and less side effects. It is noticed that 3%-9% of weight loss is assisted with the anti-obesity drugs.

• Diet pills
• FDA approved weight loss drugs
• Garcinia Cambogia Extract
• Raspberry ketones
• Caffeine
• Green coffee bean extract

Ayurveda medications are the safe and holistic methods for management of overweight with no any side effects. In nature many herbs were helpful for burning fats. Naturopathy deals with the weight loss management by using the elements obtained from the nature for long term benefits.

• Medicinal herbs
• Ayurvedic weight loss capsules
• Low calorie satwik food
• Herbal powders

Fitness programmes and diet should be planned regularly for controlling over weight, which are science based and associated with yoga-specific asana, cardio exercise, breathing exercise and meditation.

• Physical work outs
• Weight reduction therapeutic massages
• Steam and sauna
• vibrators
• General Psychology
• Antidepressant
• Healthcare and Mental Health
• Therapeutic Lifestyle Changes

Digital therapeutics are boon in 21 century, To create lifestyle behaviour changes by using software and remote monitoring tools with less medications. These programmes are incorporated by tracking sensors which gather patient health data along with their regular counselling delivered through smart mobile app and other smart devices as a self-report.

• e-Health
• Wearable gadgets
• Insulin pumps
• Blood glucose meters

During past decades the growth curve of obesity is raising, even though one of the main global health objectives for the year 2020 is to reduce the prevalence of obesity among the population, but the situation is not satisfactory. Therefore there is more attentiveness is authorized on obesity management through,

• New innovations on emerging trends
• Advancement in behavioural and psychosocial observational research
• Clinical physiology
• Concentrating on diabetes and its complications
• Drug treatments and smart devices for obesity 

A well-known scenario, Prevention is better than cure. Preventive measures are the primary health care options to avoid chronic diseases by obtaining healthy life style changes.

• Maintain a healthy weight
• Avoid tobacco use
• Regular physical activity
• Proper diet
• Regular clinical and physiological check ups
• Enough sleep
