Strategies for the Management of Obesity in the Asia-Pacific Region
Current perspectives on comorbidities, diagnosis, and effective management
Rising obesity rates in the APAC region pose serious challenges, requiring urgent management. Obesity is a chronic illness linked to increased risks of cardiometabolic diseases (CMD) like type 2 diabetes, hypertension, and cardiovascular disease. Effective management involves lifestyle changes, medications, and surgery. Patient-centered care and shared decision-making (SDM) can enhance treatment outcomes and quality of life.
Diabetes: Pathophysiology, Comorbidities, and Clinical Management
Overview of network modelling approaches and virus- or immunotherapy-induced diabetes with guidelines
Achieving long-term glycaemic control in diabetes is challenging, but advanced computational models and a multidisciplinary clinical approach, including lifestyle management and tailored pharmacotherapy, can significantly improve management and outcomes, especially when addressing the unmet needs of diverse populations and comorbid conditions.
Managing Diabetes and Its Cardiometabolic Links
With global diabetes rates climbing, this chronic high blood sugar condition, often associated with obesity, poses serious cardiometabolic threats. Proactive management through proper diet, regular exercise, and timely medication is essential.
