Abstract
A search of PubMed shows that in 1960, the year I was born, there were 110 publications on obesity. In 1991, the year I graduated from Mayo Medical School, the number had risen to 406 publications. By contrast, in 2015 there were 5470 publications on obesity. The last quarter of a century has led to the recognition of a world-wide epidemic of overweight and obesity, with a rise in all their complications.1–3 And with this recognition came the need to understand the underlying physiology and pathophysiology, and the eventual development of therapeutic interventions.4–6
对PubMed的搜索显示，在1960年，也就是我出生的那一年，有110篇关于肥胖的出版物。1991年，也就是我从梅奥医学院(Mayo Medical School)毕业的那一年，这一数字已经上升到406篇。相比之下，2015年有5470篇关于肥胖的出版物。在过去的25年里，人们认识到超重和肥胖是一种世界性的流行病，其并发症也在增加。1-3有了这种认识，就需要了解潜在的生理学和病理生理学，并最终发展治疗干预
