Multidisciplinary Approach to Obesity Management: A Case Report
0 Views •
2025
Obesity care is best delivered after in-depth initial screening and evaluation, using an individualized approach comprising multidisciplinary care, evidence-based lifestyle behavioral change strategies, and frequent follow-up. We illustrate a successful 6 month course of weight loss treatment, resulting in reversal of obesity-related chronic conditions and improvement in diet, sleep, mood, and physical fitness.

All animal procedures described here must be conducted in accordance with institutional animal ethics guidelines and approved by IACUC. All procedures must follow the principles of the 3Rs—Replacement, Reduction, and Refinement—and must be performed by trained personnel. Monitoring Animals for Signs of Pain and Distress Recognizing early signs of pain is essential for ethical animal research. Animals are routinely monitored using behavioral, physical, and physiological parameters that reflect...

Here, we present a protocol to utilize machine-vision software to stabilize dynamic processes during TEM imaging, while concurrently indexing multiple streams of metadata to each image into a navigable timeline. We demonstrate how this platform enables automated calibration and mapping of the electron dose over the course of an experiment.

2026
All animal procedures described here must be conducted in accordance with institutional animal ethics guidelines and approved by IACUC. All procedures must follow the principles of the 3Rs—Replacement, Reduction, and Refinement—and must be performed by trained personnel. Breeding management supports the 3Rs by minimizing unnecessary animal production and ensuring that only the number of animals required for a study is generated. Effective breeding strategies help reduce surplus animals and...

Measuring and Mapping Patterns of Soil Erosion and Deposition Related to Soil Carbonate Concentrations Under Agricultural Management

Cited by 1 •
2017
Spatial patterns of soil erosion and deposition can be inferred from differences in ground elevation mapped at appropriate time increments. Such changes in elevation are related to changes in near-surface soil carbonates. Repeatable methods for field and laboratory measurements of these quantities and data analysis methods are described here.
FAQs
Clinicians compare the expected benefits of each available intervention with its possible harms while considering the patient’s condition, symptoms, risks, and care goals. This comparison helps determine whether medication, a procedure, rehabilitation, supportive care, or observation is most appropriate. Reassessing these factors as new findings emerge allows the plan to remain proportionate to the patient’s changing needs.
Patient goals help clinicians individualize decisions rather than applying the same intervention to every case. Discussing desired outcomes, acceptable burdens, and concerns supports shared decision-making, in which clinical judgment and patient preferences inform the plan together. This process can clarify trade-offs among treatment options and improve alignment between the selected care strategy and the patient’s priorities.
Observation may be considered when immediate intervention is not clearly necessary after assessing the patient’s condition, symptoms, risks, and available options. It allows clinicians to monitor findings while avoiding unnecessary treatment burden, provided follow-up can identify meaningful change. Subsequent findings may support continued observation, a revised plan, additional testing, referral, or escalation of care.
A clinical plan begins with patient assessment and establishment or refinement of the diagnosis. Clinicians then weigh benefits and harms, consider the patient’s care goals, and select an appropriate intervention or monitoring strategy. Follow-up findings are essential: they show whether the plan remains suitable and guide adjustment, escalation, referral, or additional testing when needed.
Follow-up provides the information needed to evaluate whether the selected plan remains appropriate. Clinicians use subsequent findings to reassess symptoms, risks, and the patient’s response, then continue, modify, or escalate care as indicated. Regular reassessment also supports continuity across clinical settings, helping ensure that changing information is incorporated into later decisions rather than treated as an isolated encounter.
These steps become relevant when assessment or follow-up findings indicate that the current plan may not adequately address the patient’s condition, symptoms, or risks. Comparing available management options can reveal when further diagnostic clarification, specialized input, or a more intensive intervention is appropriate. Such decisions connect individualized care with evidence-based practice and the goal of improving patient outcomes.
