Affects of Weight Loss on Endothelial Function in Obesity

We are beginning to see studies of the effects of weight loss, achieved through a variety of means, on endothelial function in obesity. These studies are welcome for two reasons: information regarding further benefits of weight loss can help support arguments for better funding, access, and support of weight loss programs by various payers; also, there is a clear opportunity for such studies to contribute materially to our understanding of the pathogenesis of endothelial dysfunction in obesity. Weight loss is generally associated with beneficial changes in variables associated independently with endothelial dysfunction, such as blood pressure and HDL cholesterol, and such studies can therefore provide clues to the pathogenesis of endothelial dysfunction in this setting. This is something of a minefield, however, because the therapeutic lifestyle interventions usually recommended to achieve weight loss include exercise, a confounder that has well-recognized effects on endothelial function. Conversely, pharmacologically assisted weight loss must account for possible direct effects of the medication on endothelial function independent of its effects on weight loss, as well as for potential metabolic and other effects of the medication to improve endothelial function independent of weight loss.
