  • Evaluation of the impact of lipid metabolism on obesity development and progression.

    • Main Results:

    • Energy imbalance is identified as the primary cause of obesity and its complications.
    • Lipid metabolism pathology significantly exacerbates obesity development.
    • Nutritional irregularities are particularly pronounced in obesity cases with cardiovascular, hepatobiliary, and diabetes mellitus comorbidities.

    Conclusions:

    • Obesity represents a critical global health issue requiring urgent attention and intervention.
    • Addressing energy imbalance and improving lipid metabolism are crucial for managing obesity.
    • The Institute of Nutrition, Academy of Medical Sciences of the USSR, has developed a comprehensive program to combat obesity and its associated health risks.
