Adipositas und kardiovaskuläres Risiko – mehr als nur der BMI.
Beyond BMI: Obesity and Cardiovascular Risk.
Aktuel. Kardiol. 14, 271 - 276 (2025)
Obesity is a multifactorial disease with a globally increasing prevalence that is promoted by biological, psychosocial and environmental factors. In addition to body mass index, waist circumference and waist-to-hip ratio are also important predictors of cardiovascular risk. Visceral adipose tissue in particular plays a central role in the development of atherosclerosis and coronary heart disease through mediation of inflammatory processes and insulin resistance. New approaches call for a differentiated view of preclinical and clinically manifest obesity in order to avoid overtreatment. While lifestyle interventions remain essential, drug and surgical approaches show potential for reducing cardiovascular events. However, long-term risk minimization requires sustainable measures that go beyond short-term weight control.
