Adipositas

Zusammenfassung

Die Adipositas lässt sich epidemiologisch gut erheben, da zur Erfassung nur einfache Methoden angewendet werden müssen. Verlässlich sind allerdings nur Untersuchungen, in denen die Probanden auch wirklich gemessen und gewogen wurden; Selbstangaben von Patienten aufgrund von Befragungen sind weniger verlässlich. In den letzten Jahrzehnten hat die Adipositas in Industrienationen zu einer pandemischen Verbreitung geführt. Aufgrund der assoziierten Morbidität und Einschränkung der Lebensqualität hat die Adipositas auch eine erhebliche ökonomische Bedeutung, was für die Gesundheitspolitik und Kostenträger von Sozialleistungen von Interesse ist. Epidemiologische Daten tragen auch zu ätiologischen Erkenntnissen der Adipositas bei.
