Early Weight Loss

Abstract Background: Infants lose some of their birth weight before hospital discharge. This loss, which is accepted as “physiological” up to a certain level (5-7%), is supplemented with food in early period for infants with over 7% of loss. While food supplementation does not have the benefits of mother’s milk, it may cause low breastfeeding success in the long run. In newborns, the identification of risk factors affecting weight loss in a few days following birth will increase exclusive breastfeeding success. The aim of this study is to evaluate the risk factors that cause weight loss in newborns before hospital discharge. Methods: Weight loss in infants born in a private trust hospital of Koc University American Hospital between 1 January 2011 and 31 December 2014 was evaluated. The hospital records of 3812 babies who completed the inclusion criteria were included in the study. The variables giving meaningful results in binary tables were evaluated with “Multivariate Logistic Regression”.Results: The increase in maternal age, Caesarean section birth, primiparity, female gender and being early term were statistically significant risk factors for early weight loss in newborns.

Insulin Omission

Research suggests that as many as 60% of people with type 1 diabetes (T1D) admit to misusing insulin. Insulin omission (IO) for the purpose of weight loss, often referred to as diabulimia, is a behaviour becoming increasingly recognised, not least since prolonged engagement can lead to serious vascular complications and mortality. Several risk factors appear to be relevant to the development of IO, most notably gender, anxiety and depression and increased weight concerns and body dissatisfaction. Evidence suggests that women, especially young girls, are more likely to omit insulin as a method of weight loss compared to men. Mental health conditions such as anxiety and depression are increasingly prevalent in people with T1D compared to their peers, and appear to contribute to the risk of IO. Increased weight concerns and body dissatisfaction are further prominent risk factors, especially given increases in weight which often occur following diagnosis and the monitoring of weight by diabetes teams. This review presents evidence examining these risk factors which increase the likelihood of a person with T1D engaging in IO and highlights the complications associated with prolongment of the behaviour. Further research looking at the comorbidities of these risk factors, alongside other factors, would provide greater insight into understanding IO in people with T1D.

Edmonton Obesity Staging System

Objectives. To determine the distribution of EOSS stages and differences in weight loss achieved according to EOSS stage, in patients attending a referral-based publically funded multisite weight management clinic.Subjects/Methods. 5,787 obese patients were categorized using EOSS staging using metabolic risk factors, medication use, and severity of doctor diagnosis of obesity-related physiological, functional, and psychological comorbidities from electronic patient files.Results. The prevalence of EOSS stages 0 (no risk factors or comorbidities), 1 (mild conditions), 2 (moderate conditions), and 3 (severe conditions) was 1.7%, 10.4%, 84.0%, and 3.9%, respectively. Prehypertension (63%), hypertension (76%), and knee replacement (33%) were the most common obesity-related comorbidities for stages 1, 2, and 3, respectively. In the models including age, sex, initial BMI, EOSS stage, and treatment time, lower EOSS stage and longer treatment times were independently associated with greater absolute (kg) and percentage of weight loss relative to initial body weightP<0.05.Conclusions. Patients attending this publicly funded, referral-based weight management clinic were more likely to be classified in the higher stages of EOSS. Patients in higher EOSS stages required longer treatment times to achieve similar weight outcomes as those in lower EOSS stages.
