This has resulted in a dramatic increase in obesity-related metabolic and cardiovascular complications, making it an important public health issue.Type 2 diabetes associated with obesity or 'diabesity' is today the most common form of type 2 diabetes. It is also associated with a number of other cardiovascular risk factors, which constitute the metabolic syndrome. Effective management of 'diabesity' is crucial to the reductiDiabetes in practice.ObesityType 2 diabetesObesity.Type 2 diabetes.616.3/98Barnett A.
