Obesity
Abstract
The most common nutritional disorders in the United States are overweight and obesity. This review discusses the treatment of overweight and obesity as chronic conditions that require a combined approach of behavioral therapy, exercise, dietary changes, and — in certain cases — medication. The authors consider the three classes of weight-loss drugs: those that suppress appetite, those that decrease nutrient absorption, and those that increase energy expenditure. Currently available and soon-to-be-released drugs are discussed.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
