Long-term trends in obesity and overweight in women in Ghana from 2003–2023 - Communications Medicine
Gray et al. examine the weight trends in women using data from the Ghana Demographic and Health Study. Findings reveal that obesity poses a more substantial public health challenge than being underweight and that increases in obesity with age, combined with an aging population, could lead to continued rises in obesity rates.

It was a pleasure to discuss the new definition of clinical obesity with Carissa Wong at the New Scientist this week! These new definitions will help to better identify patients with obesity who require treatment.
