[null,null,null,"Sommario/riassunto","This comprehensive textbook, edited by Rexford S. Ahima, provides an in-depth examination of metabolic syndrome, highlighting its rising incidence and the associated health risks such as coronary artery disease, stroke, and various other conditions. The book serves as a valuable resource for clinicians, researchers, and students, offering insights into the epidemiology, genetics, environmental factors, and clinical management of obesity and metabolic syndrome. It covers a range of topics, including the obesity epidemic, its genetic and environmental influences, and the complex interplay between obesity and diseases like diabetes, cancer, and sleep disorders. The text aims to enhance the understanding and management of metabolic syndrome, addressing both scientific and clinical aspects, and is intended for a professional audience in the medical and health sciences fields."]
