Item Predictors of weight reduction in a Nigerian family practice setting(Ghana Medical Association, 2021) Ogunbode, A. M.; Owolabi, M. O.; Ogunbode, O. O.; Adebusoye, L. A.; Ogunniyi, A.Objectives: This study identified the predictors of weight reduction among adult obese patients in a Family Practice Setting and developed a statistical model to predict weight reduction. Design: A prospective cohort design. Setting: The Family Practice Clinic, University College Hospital, Ibadan, Nigeria Participants and study tools: Obese adults were recruited into a three-month weight reduction program. Patient Information Leaflets were used for counselling, while questionnaires were administered to obtain socio-demographic and lifestyle factors. Potential predictors were assessed using the Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support, Zung Depression Scale, Rosenberg Self-Esteem scale, Garner’s Eating Attitude Test-26 (EAT-26), 24-hour dietary recall and International Physical Activity Questionnaire-short form. Anthropometric indices, blood pressure and Fast-ing Lipid Profile were assessed. Descriptive and inferential statistics were used for analysis with a significance set at α0.05. Results: Most 99(76.2%) of the 130 participants achieved weight reduction and had a median weight change of -2.3kg (IQR-4, -0.5), with 66 (66.7%) out of 99 attaining the weight reduction target of 10%. The regression model showed predictors of weight reduction to be Total Cholesterol [TC] (p=0.01) and Low-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol [LDL-C] (p=0.03). The statistical model derived for Weight reduction = 0.0028 (LDL-C) -0.029 (TC)-0.053 (EAT-26) +0.041(High-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol). The proportion of variance of the model tested was R2 = 0.3928 (ad-justed R2 = 0.2106). Conclusion: Predictors of weight reduction among patients were eating attitude score, Total Cholesterol, Low-Density Lipid and High-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol levels. A statistical model was developed for managing obesity among patients.Item Factors associated with obesity and weight reduction among people with obesity: A systematic review(ScopeMed, 2020) Ogunbode, A. M.; Owolabi, M. O.; Ogunbode, O. O.; Ogunniyi, A.Introduction: Obesity is a non-communicable disease of huge public health importance with several multi-systemic complications. Weight reduction techniques are useful in the management of obesity. The aim of this review was to determine the risk factors, health risks of obesity as well as factors influencing weight reduction among individuals with obesity. Methods: Google, Google Scholar, and Pub Med databases were used to identify studies on obesity that assessed risk factors and complications of obesity plus factors influencing weight reduction among people with obesity. The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis guidelines were used and 914 literature records were retrieved. These were limited to papers published in English up to 2019. We excluded 702 articles that did not match our theme and also excluded an additional 156 full articles due to incompleteness. The evidence available was critically appraised in line with our objectives. Results: Fifty-six articles were reviewed, and it was found that obesity increased with age and was more in women. Inadequate diet, physical inactivity, and metabolic disor¬ders were contributory factors, whereas the main factors associated with greater weight reduction were lower pre-treatment weight, lower waist circumference, doctors as role models, and absence of psychiatric co-morbidities. Conclusions: Proven weight reduction methods are vital for the cost-effective manage¬ment of patients as part of lifestyle modification.Item Prevalence of obesity among women attending a Nigerian primary care clinic(College of Health Sciences, University of Ilorin, 2010-01) Ogunbode, A. M.; Ladipo, M. M. A.; Ajayi, I. O.; Ogunbode, O. O.; Adebusoye, L. A.; Fatiregun, A. AThe objective was to determine the prevalence of obesity and associated risk factors among women in a Nigerian Out-Patient clinic. A pre-tested structured questionnaire was administered on women at the General Outpatients’ Department (G. O. P.D) of the University College Hospital (U.C.H), Ibadan. The prevalence of obesity was 41.8%. Age was significantly associated with obesity, p=0.001. Majority of the obese participants (68.9%) in comparison to non-obese (46.4%) were traders, p=0.001. Many of the obese respondents were married (82.6%) in comparison to non-obese respondents who were widows (67.4%), p=0.001. Many of the obese respondents were multiparous (44.3%) having more than 4 children in comparison to the non-obese respondents with the highest proportion of women with no children (36.1%), p=0.001. Fewer of the obese women had no formal education (28.1%) and no primary education (26.4%), in comparison to the non-obese with 32.2% having secondary education and 27% having secondary education and 27% having post-secondary education, p=0.015. Majority of the obese women (62.3%) were pre-menopausal in comparison to the non-obese with 79.0% being pre-menopausal, p=0.001. Multivariate analysis done using logistic regression showed that risk factors for obesity included age group 50-59 years (odds Ratio 15.914, 95% CI=1.389-182.26, p=0.026), and being menopausal (Odds Ratio 1.452.95% CI=0.587-3.594, p=0.017). Having greater than five children was also found to be a risk factor for obesity (OR=3.321, 95%CI=1.236-8.921,p=0.017). The prevalence of obesity among Nigerian women remains high. There is a need to plan and implement measures for control.Item Health risks of obesity(Association of Resident Doctors (ARD), University College Hospital (UCH), Ibadan, Nigeria, 2009-12) Ogunbode, A. M.; Fatiregun, A. A.; Ogunbode, O. O.Obesity is becoming of interest as a non-communicable disease. There is however a dearth of information on obesity in this environment, as literature in developing countries is limited. Review of health risks of obesity is useful in order to increase the pool of available information in Nigeria and to draw attention to obesity and its attendant health risks.
