Abstract
Obesity is a metabolic disease caused by genetic factors and poor lifestyles, and it is a high-risk factor for many chronic diseases. Overweight and obesity has become a major public health problem in China. The means of weight management include lifestyle intervention, drugs and metabolic surgery. Currently, a number of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RA) drugs are approved for weight management. Lifestyle modification is the concerstone for all weight management, and it should run through other management methods such as GLP-1RA drug treatment. How to combine the drugs with lifestyle intervention scientifically and effectively has become an important clinical problem. Experts in endocrinology, nutrition, public health, and other relevant fields were invited to contribute to this consensus, which is based on evidence from both domestic and international clinical studies, as well as practical clinical experience. This expert consensus covers the definition, diagnosis, epidemiology, related complications, weight management objectives for overweight/obesity, weight loss strategies, and the management process for patients using GLP-1RA drugs to lose weight.
