The 50 pages that link to Obesity, each with the reason it gives.
Type 2 diabetesRelated: Excess adiposity, especially around abdominal organs, can worsen insulin resistance.
MedicalizationBroader topic: Its classification as a disease affects treatment, stigma, and public-health policy.
MalnutritionCompared with: It illustrates malnutrition associated with excessive energy intake rather than deficiency.
Cushing syndromeCompared with: It can share central weight gain and metabolic findings but does not establish cortisol excess.
Eating disorderCompared with: Body size alone neither establishes nor rules out an eating disorder.
Metabolic syndromeCompared with: Obesity can occur without the full cluster of blood-pressure, glucose, and lipid abnormalities.
Adipose tissueRelated: Adipose tissue expansion and dysfunction are central to many forms of obesity.
Colorectal cancerRelated: Population studies associate obesity with increased colorectal cancer risk.
Fast foodRelated: Research examines how frequent consumption of energy-dense fast food relates to obesity risk.
AppetiteRelated: Appetite regulation interacts with environment and biology in the development and treatment of obesity.
Food desertsRelated: Research examines whether constrained access to nutritious food affects obesity risk.
Weight lossCompared with: Intentional weight loss is often considered as treatment when excess adiposity threatens health.
Brown adipose tissueRelated: Researchers investigate whether increasing brown-fat energy expenditure can affect body weight.
GLP-1 receptor agonistRelated: Some medicines in this class are approved for chronic weight management.
ThermogenesisRelated: Differences in energy expenditure through thermogenesis are studied in relation to body-weight regulation.
Added sugarRelated: Sugar-sweetened foods and drinks can contribute energy, but obesity has multiple causes.
NutritionRelated: Long-term energy balance and dietary conditions can contribute to obesity risk.
Bariatric surgeryNarrower topic: It is the condition bariatric procedures are designed to treat.
Endometrial cancerRelated: Adipose tissue can increase estrogen exposure after menopause, raising endometrial cancer risk.
LeptinRelated: Most common obesity involves high leptin levels and reduced responsiveness, rather than too little leptin.
Soft drinkRelated: High consumption of sugary soft drinks is associated with increased energy intake and weight gain.
AdipocyteRelated: Adipocyte size, number, and signaling change in obesity.
CholelithiasisRelated: Obesity is associated with increased risk of cholesterol gallstones.
High-fructose corn syrupRelated: HFCS has featured in debates about whether particular sweeteners contribute to population weight gain.
Intra-abdominal pressureRelated: Increased abdominal adiposity is associated with higher baseline pressure.
Fast-food restaurantRelated: Research examines how frequent consumption of energy-dense fast food relates to obesity risk.
Glucagon-like peptide-1Related: GLP-1 receptor agonists can reduce appetite and support substantial weight loss.
HyperphagiaCompared with: Seasonal fat gain is adaptive when temporary, unlike persistent obesity that harms health.
MethamphetamineRelated: Methamphetamine’s prescribing information includes short-term treatment of selected cases of obesity.
Prader–Willi syndromeRelated: Uncontrolled food access combined with hyperphagia can lead to severe obesity.
Sex hormone-binding globulinRelated: Obesity is often associated with lower SHBG concentrations, partly through metabolic and hepatic pathways.
The Coca-Cola CompanyRelated: Public-health debates examine the contribution of sugary drinks, alongside many other factors.
Idiopathic intracranial hypertensionRelated: It is strongly associated with the disorder, though it does not fully explain why pressure rises.
Instant noodlesRelated: Research examines how frequent consumption of energy-dense instant meals relates to broader dietary patterns and health.
Bardet–Biedl syndromeRelated: Early-onset obesity is common and can require sustained metabolic and lifestyle care.
DiverticulitisRelated: It is associated with increased risk of diverticulitis and its complications.
AdipokineRelated: Expanded adipose tissue changes adipokine production and often promotes dysfunctional signaling.
LiraglutideRelated: Liraglutide is prescribed at a higher dose for chronic weight management in eligible patients.
SemaglutideRelated: Semaglutide is used alongside reduced-calorie eating and increased activity for chronic weight management.
Mondelez InternationalRelated: Debates over highly processed snacks often examine their contribution to diets and public health.
SugarRelated: Sugary foods and drinks can add substantial energy to diets, though weight outcomes have many causes.
Alternate-day fastingRelated: Weight loss is a major reason alternate-day fasting is studied and used.
Non-alcoholic fatty liver diseaseRelated: Excess adiposity is a major risk factor, though the disease also occurs without it.
Smith–Magenis syndromeRelated: Weight gain can emerge over time, making growth and metabolic monitoring relevant.
Daniel LambertNarrower topic: Modern medical language distinguishes a health condition from the spectacle through which Lambert was remembered.
Laron syndromeRelated: Increased adiposity can accompany the short stature and altered metabolism of Laron syndrome.
Nicholas ChristakisRelated: Their network analysis examined how obesity clustered and appeared to spread among connected people.
Nutritional and Metabolic DiseasesBroader topic: It is a major condition associated with sustained energy imbalance and metabolic complications.
OrlistatRelated: Orlistat is used as an adjunct to lifestyle changes for weight management in people with obesity.
Social stigma of obesityNarrower topic: The condition is distinct from the social judgments directed at people who have it.
