本综述的重点是肥胖和减肥对生活质量的影响。对生活质量的关注拓宽了减肥以外的治疗效果范围，并提供了以患者为中心的观点。生活质量的概念进行了定义，一般和肥胖的具体措施进行审查。很明显，肥胖对生活质量的生理和心理社会方面都产生了负面影响，特别是在严重肥胖者中。减肥的效果似乎是有利的，尽管很少有研究检查非手术干预。未来的研究将通过使用一般和肥胖特定的生活质量指标评估各种减肥方法，并进行随访研究以评估体重恢复对生活质量的影响，从而加强研究。《营养》，2000年;16：947-952。(C)Elsevier Science Inc. 2000.
The focus of this review is the impact of obesity and weight loss on quality of Life. A focus on quality of life broadens the scope of treatment efficacy beyond weight loss and provides a patient-centered perspective. The concept of quality of life is defined, and both general and obesity-specific measures are reviewed. It is clear that obesity confers negative consequences on both the physical and psychosocial aspects of quality of life, especially among the severely obese. The effects of weight loss appear to be favorable, although few studies have examined non-surgical interventions. Future studies would be enhanced by assessing a variety of approaches to weight loss by using both general and obesity-specific measures of quality of life and conducting follow-up studies to assess the effects of weight regain on quality of Life.
