Case study – Limitations of body mass index to evaluate health status
The body mass index, or BMI, is commonly used to detect overweight or obesity quickly, as it is obtained by dividing weight by the squared height, which requires a simple measuring rod and scale. However, although it is relevant to characterise obesity (except in the case of very muscular athletes), its effectiveness to detect overweight […]
Obesity and Sarcopenia: The Importance of Muscle Mass in Management
According to a recent expert consensus¹, obesity is defined as a condition characterized by a body mass index (BMI) greater than 30 kg/m², combined with excess fat mass that leads to clinical complications impairing the patient’s health. From a pathophysiological perspective, this excess fat mass causes low-grade systemic inflammation due to the production of pro-inflammatory […]
