Deel 1 | Lichamelijke oorzaken van overgewicht
Herken de oorzaken die succesvol afvallen in de weg kunnen staan

Je zou toch heel raar staan te kijken als je bij de huisarts binnenkwam en je arts zei, nog voor je ging zitten: 'U krijgt van mij een ontstekingsremmer', zonder eerst te onderzoeken wat er met jou aan de hand is. Toch gebeurt dit al tientallen jaren bij de behandeling van overgewicht. Er wordt een dieet en een bewegingsadvies gegeven zonder rekening te houden met de mogelijke andere oorzaken van gewichtstoename. In dit eerste deel van deze serie kun je lezen hoe je deze 'andere oorzaken' van overgewicht op een eenvoudige manier kunt herkennen.

    The structure of nuclear thyroid hormone receptors contains Zinc (Zn) ions, crucial for the functional properties of the protein. Iodothyronine 5' deiodinase, which is mainly responsible for peripheral T3 production, has recently been demonstrated to be a selenium (Se)-containing enzyme. A highly significant linear correlation between the T3/T4 ratio and indices of Se status was observed in the older group of subjects. Abstract

    If Se is deficient, the deiodinase activity would be inhibited, the level of circulation T4 will be elevated, and the concentration T3 in peripheral tissues will be decreased. Se deficiency will also accelerate the iodine depletion of thyroid and may even exacerbate some detrimental effects of iodine deficiency. Possibly Se deficiency is involved in the occurrence and development of iodine deficient disorders. Keshan disease, with Se deficiency as the major cause, was also observed a change of thyroid hormone metabolism Abstract

    The physiologic and metabolic pathways responsible of the appearance of obesity are revisited, as well as the current theories on body weight regulatory mechanisms. From this information, a classification of obesities is proposed: 1) Hypothalamic, 2) Bulimic, 3) Digestive, 4) Hyperinsulinemic, 5) Hypothermogenic, 6) Hypothyroid, and 7) Set point. These conditions should not be treated therapeutically in the same way, as the causes of development of the illness are not equal. The need to determine the individualized causes of obesity prior to any treatment is stressed.Abstract

    Several peptides synthesised in the gastrointestinal tract which affect food intake have been identified including ghrelin, cholecystokinin (CCK), glucagon-like peptide-1 (7-36) amide (GLP-1), oxyntomodulin, peptide YY (PYY) and pancreatic polypeptide (PP). Abstract

    Leptin, the long-sought factor of adipocytes origin, has emerged as one of the major signals that relay the status of fat stores to the hypothalamus and plays a significant role in energy homeostasis. It is now established that central leptin resistance contributes to the development of diet-induced obesity and ageing associated obesity. Abstract

    In the last 10 years, discoveries of new hormones such as leptin and ghrelin, together with greater understanding of previously described hormones such as cholecystokinin (CCK), pancreatic polypeptide (PP), peptide YY (PYY) and glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1), have led to a rapid increase in our knowledge of the regulation of energy balance. Among the most important factors, controlling appetite and satiety are peptide hormones released from the gut. Abstract
  15. Chaudhri O, Small C, Bloom S. Philos Trans R Soc Lond B Biol Sci. 2006 Jul 29;361(1471):1187-209. Gastrointestinal hormones regulating appetite
    Many gut peptides have been shown to influence energy intake. The most well studied in this regard are cholecystokinin (CCK), pancreatic polypeptide, peptide YY, glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), oxyntomodulin and ghrelin. With the exception of ghrelin, these hormones act to increase satiety and decrease food intake. Local effects such as the inhibition of gastric emptying might contribute to the decrease in energy intake. Circulating gut hormones have also been shown to act directly on neurons in hypothalamic and brainstem centres of appetite control. In this way, hormonal signals from the gut may be translated into the subjective sensation of satiety Article
  16. De Vriese C, Delporte C. Curr Opin Clin Nutr Metab Care. 2007 Sep;10(5):615-9 Influence of ghrelin on food intake and energy homeostasis
    Ghrelin is an endogenous orexigenic peptide recently discovered in the stomach. Ghrelin is involved in short-term regulation of food intake since its plasma levels increase before meals and decrease strongly postprandially Abstract

    Weight loss resulting from decreased caloric intake raises levels of the orexigenic hormone, ghrelin. In summary, ghrelin levels increase with weight loss achieved without reduced food intake, consistent with a role for ghrelin in the adaptive response constraining weight loss and, thus, in long-term body weight regulation.Abstract

    Body fat, body weight, and resting metabolic rate significantly decreased in the weight-loss group before the increase in ghrelin. These findings suggest that ghrelin responds in a compensatory manner to changes in energy homeostasis in healthy young women, and that ghrelin exhibits particular sensitivity to changes in body weight.

    Diet-induced weight loss is associated with an increase in fasting ghrelin. Weight loss is associated with an improved postprandial plasma ghrelin response to a carbohydrate meal, whereas the response to a fat meal is not modified. Abstract

    Thirty minutes after the start of eating, satiety signals arise from the intestinal tract and, in between meals, from the adipose tissue and liver. Satiety signals are sedative and arrest the processing of food in the intestine, hence leading to termination of eating.Abstract

  25. Scarpace PJ, Zhang Y. Front Biosci. 2007 May 1;12:3531-44 Elevated leptin: consequence or cause of obesity?
    Chronic overexpression of central leptin induces a leptin resistance that mimics many of the characteristics associated with diet-induced or adult-onset obesity including reduced leptin receptors, diminished signaling, and impaired responsiveness to exogenous leptin. Once leptin resistance takes hold, each subsequent exposure to high-density food faces diminished counter-regulatory responses, leading to exacerbated weight gain Abstract
  26. Moschos S, Chan JL, Mantzoros CS. Fertil Steril. 2002 Mar;77(3):433-44 Leptin and reproduction: a review
    Leptin may act as the critical link between adipose tissue and the reproductive system, indicating whether adequate energy reserves are present for normal reproductive function. Future interventional studies involving leptin administration are expected to further clarify this role of leptin and may provide new therapeutic options for the reproductive dysfunction associated with states of relative leptin deficiency or resistance Abstract
  27. Banks WA. Peptides. 2004 Mar;25(3):331-8 The many lives of leptin
    Obesity in humans and many animals is associated with a leptin resistant state rather than a leptin deficiency. Consideration of the BBB data would favor the view that ancestral levels of leptin were much lower than those currently considered normal and are consistent with leptin acting as a metabolic switch, informing the brain when fat reserves are adequate to direct energy expenditures towards activities other than seeking calories. Abstract

    Leptin transport is also inhibited in starvation and by hypertriglyceridemia. Since hypertriglyceridemia occurs in both starvation and obesity, we have postulated that the peripheral resistance induced by hypertriglyceridemia may have evolved as an adaptive mechanism in response to starvation. Abstract
  29. Banks WA, Coon AB, Robinson SM, Moinuddin A, Shultz JM, Nakaoke R, Morley JE. Triglycerides induce leptin resistance at the blood-brain barrier
    We conclude that triglycerides are an important cause of leptin resistance as mediated by impaired transport across the BBB and suggest that triglyceride-mediated leptin resistance may have evolved as an anti-anorectic mechanism during starvation. Decreasing triglycerides may potentiate the anorectic effect of leptin by enhancing leptin transport across the BBB. Article

    Triglycerides are elevated in both starvation and obesity We postulate that hypertriglyceridemia evolved as a starvation signal to the brain that acts in part to inhibit the transport of the leptin across the BBB. The hypertriglyceridemia of obesity invokes this aspect of the starvation response, inducing leptin resistance at the BBB Abstract

    A specific hunger for carbohydrate-rich foods has been observed in animals and human beings and appears to be regulated by the brain neurotransmitter serotonin. Consumption of a carbohydrate-rich meal increases the synthesis and release of brain serotonin (by enhancing the brain uptake of its precursor, tryptophan). Abstract

    Moreover, noncarbohydrate cravers experienced an increase in depression, while carbohydrate cravers reported feeling less depressed. Findings suggest that snacking habits of obese individuals may be related to subsequent mood states Abstract
  39. Wurtman RJ, Wurtman JJ, Obes Res. 1995 Nov;3 Suppl 4:477S-480S., Brain serotonin, carbohydrate-craving, obesity and depression
    Carbohydrate consumption--acting via insulin secretion and the "plasma tryptophan ratio"--increases serotonin release; protein intake lacks this effect. Hence many patients learn to overeat carbohydrates (particularly snack foods, like potato chips or pastries, which are rich in carbohydrates and fats) to make themselves feel better. This tendency to use certain foods as though they were drugs is a frequent cause of weight gain, and can also be seen in patients who become fat when exposed to stress, or in women with premenstrual syndrome, or in patients with "winter depression," or in people who are attempting to give up smoking. Nicotine, like dietary carbohydrates, increases brain serotonin secretion; nicotine withdrawal has the opposite effect. Abstract

    Hormonal fluctuations associated with the menstrual cycle influence appetite control and eating behaviour. Energy intake varies during the reproductive cycle in humans and animals, with a periovulatory nadir and a luteal phase peak. Patterns of macronutrient selection show less consistency but a number of studies report carbohydrate cravings in the premenstrual phase, particularly in women with premenstrual syndrome Abstract

    At least three categories of atypical depression have been described. The hysteroid dysphoria is characterized by repeated episodes of depressed mood in response to feeling rejected, and a craving for sweets and chocolate. Two other issues are characterized by a cyclical occurrence of changes of mood and appetite, i.e., the late the premenstrual syndrome (PMS), and the major depression with seasonal pattern or seasonal affective disorder (SAD).

    HOMA-IR index (homeostasis model of insulin resistance) was calculated as fasting serum glucose*fasting serum insulin/22.5, with lower values indicating a higher degree of insulin sensitivity. Individual changes in the carbohydrate metabolism achieved by a lifestyle intervention program were displayed by fasting serum insulin concentrations and the HOMA-IR but not by fasting glucose measurement alone.[Abstract]

    Overt type 2 diabetes is usually preceded by a condition known as prediabetes, which is characterized by impaired fasting glucose (IFG) and impaired glucose tolerance (IGT). Both IFG and IGT exhibit elevated glucose levels that are not sufficient to be classified as diabetes but that represent the development of insulin resistance. Achieving glycemic control in patients with prediabetes through lifestyle and pharmacologic interventions can effectively prevent or delay the development of diabetes and its associated complications.Abstract

    There are two types of fat distribution in obese subjects. The abdominal, superior, android or apple shaped and the gluteo-femoral, gynecoid, inferior or pear shaped. In the former, fat is accumulated in the abdomen and in the latter, in the gluteal region. The superior distribution is associated with a higher risk of cardiovascular diseases. Among anthropometric measurements of fat distribution, the ratio between waist circumference measured at the level of the navel and hip circumference, measured at the level of greater trochanters, is the best indicator. Using the cutoff points of 0.8 for women and 1 for men, it has a good correlation with visceral fat. Abstract

    The insulin drives energy into fat, and interferes with leptin signaling in the VMH. This results in weight gain and the sense of starvation, which results in decreased SNS activity, reducing energy expenditure and physical activity; and increased vagal activity, which promotes yet further insulin release and energy storage. Thus, hyperinsulinemia turns the leptin negative feedback system into a "vicious cycle" of obesity. Abstract

    Resting metabolic rate (RMR) comprises 50-80% of daily energy expenditure, and is highly variable between subjects even after adjusting for body weight and body composition. RMR is believed to be genetically determined. Individuals with a low RMR for a given body size are at higher risk of significant weight gain, relative to those with a high RMR Abstract

    Reduction in energy intake below the acceptable level of requirement for an individual results in a series of physiological and behavioural responses, which are considered as an adaptation to the low energy intake. This ability of the human body to adapt to a lowering of the energy intake is without doubt beneficial to the survival of the individual Abstract
  63. Rössner S. Nord Med. 1990;105(6-7):190-1 Fasting--wrong in obesity?
    Fasting has been advocated as an effective way to reduce body weight. However, few data support any long-term effect of this therapy. On the contrary, evidence is accumulating that the repeated weight loss and concomitant weight gain, typical of fasting in many individuals, will lead to a subsequently higher body weight. Each weight cycle seems to increase the risk of a higher waist/hip ratio, greater metabolic efficiency and a food preference towards fat. All these trends result in further problems associated with weight loss and a vicious circle is established. Abstract
  64. Josephine Connolly, Theresa Romano and Marisa Patruno Family Practice Vol. 16, No. 2, 196-201 Effects of dieting and exercise on resting metabolic rate and implications for weight management
    Resting metabolic rate accounts for 6075% of total energy expenditure in sedentary people.2 Therefore, it is a major determinant of energy balance and changes in weight. Factors which decrease resting metabolic rate would be associated with difficulty maintaining weight or weight loss, or frank weight gain. On the contrary, anything that increases resting metabolic rate would facilitate weight loss and maintenance of weight loss. Caloric restriction is known to produce a short-term reduction in resting metabolic rate. Article

    Twenty-four hour Energy Expenditure (EE) and sleeping EE decreased significantly with age; however, the decrease in sleeping EE was 1.5-fold greater in women who became postmenopausal compared with premenopausal controls (-7.9 vs -5.3%). Fat oxidation decreased by 32% in women who became postmenopausal (P<0.05), but did not change in those who remained premenopausal Abstract

    Hormonal production of the thyroid gland is constituted of thyroxine or T4 (80%) and triiodothyronine or T3 (20%). In the circulation, whole T4 originates from thyroid secretion but most of T3 (80%) is produced extrathyroidally from T4 deiodination Abstract

    The disease affects every major organ system and metabolic process. The diagnosis of primary hypothyroidism can be perplexing to the clinician because of its insidious onset and wide array of nonspecific manifestations. Complaints of fatigue, muscle weakness, lethargy, and weight gain are often at first attributed to emotional or other health problems Abstract

    Hypothyroidism affects 4% to 10% of women, increasing with age. Symptoms, which are often nonspecific and subtle, can include: lethargy, mild weight gain, edema, cold intolerance, constipation, mental impairment, dry skin, depression, irregular menses, hoarseness, myalgias, hyperlipidemia, and bradycardia. Because estrogen increases levels of thyroid binding globulin, women who are on HRT or OCs, or are pregnant, usually have total T4 levels above the reference range Abstract

    Evidence is presented that many people have hypothyroidism undetected by conventional laboratory thyroid-function tests, and cases are reported to support the empirical use of Armour thyroid. Clinical evaluation can identify individuals with sub-laboratory hypothyroidism who are likely to benefit from thyroid-replacement therapy. In a significant proportion of cases, treatment with thyroid hormone has resulted in marked improvement in chronic symptoms that had failed to respond to a wide array of conventional and alternative treatments.

    As first described in serious systemic illnesses isolated decreased T3 plasma concentration was related to impaired peripheral conversion of T4, to T3 with preferential production of reverse T3 (rT3). A "low T3 syndrome" was seen in 47 out of 109 patients with extra-thyroidal diseases. Metabolic state, TSH and TSH responses to TRH were normal despite of low T3 concentration. Euthyroidism seems mainly due to T4 itself in these patients Abstract

    Serum thyroid hormone concentrations and their metabolic fate are within the normal range limits in obese subjects. Also serum TSH concentrations and its response to TRH are normal, suggesting that tissue availability of thyroid hormones is normally preserved in these subjects. In contrast, during caloric restriction serum T3 concentrations decrease as a consequence of its reduced production rate from peripheral deiodination of T4. Opposite, serum rT3 concentrations markedly increase as a result of its decreased metabolic clearance rate Abstract

    The mean per capita absorbable zinc content of national food supplies ranged from 2.98-3.01 mg day(-1) in Western Europe and USA & Canada to 2.09 mg day(-1) in Southeast Asia. The estimated percentage of individuals at risk of inadequate zinc intake ranged from 9.3-9.5% in the regions of North Africa & Eastern Mediterranean and USA & Canada to 33.1% in Southeast Asia. Overall, approximately 20.5% of the world's population is estimated to be at risk of inadequate zinc intake. Data on the absorbable zinc content of national food supplies can be used to determine whether further assessments of population zinc status and development of intervention Abstract

    Inadequate intake of food and stress modify the T3/rT3 ratio. Many common drugs interfere with energy metabolism, namely those used in psychiatry and all hormones and their antagonists mentioned above and used for a long time. Obesity should not be considered as a simple result of overeating and lack of physical activity.Abstract

    Hypothyroidism is a common endocrine disorder affecting 1.4% to 2.0% of women and 0.1% to 0.2% of men. The prevalence of both overt and subclinical hypothyroidism increases with age, affecting 5% to 10% of women over age 50 and 1.25% of men over age 60, with an increasing incidence in women ages 40 to 50. Typical symptoms are consistent with declining metabolic functions and range from vague complaints of fatigue in subclinical deficiency to overt clinical symptoms involving changes in mentation and memory, lethargy, weight gain, cold intolerance, constipation, and goitrous enlargement of the thyroid gland Abstract

    Although gestational hyperthyroidism is uncommon (0.2%), hypothyroidism (autoimmune disease or suboptimal iodine intake) occurs in 2.5% of women and is predictive of reduced neonatal and child neuropsychological development and maternal obstetric complications. T4 supply is crucial to fetal nervous system maturation; currently, the recommended daily iodine intake is 200 microg, and this is not always achieved, even in the UK Abstract
  87. Lazarus JH., Minerva Endocrinol. 2005 Jun;30(2):71-87,Thyroid disease in pregnancy and childhood
    Fetal brain development depends on T4 transport into the fetus which in turn depends on sufficient maternal iodine supply. There is current concern that adequate iodisation is not present in large parts of Europe. There is increasing evidence that thyroid autoimmunity is associated with fetal loss but the mechanism is unclear and therapy requires carefully conducted studies Abstract

    Postpartum thyroiditis (PPT), characterized by transient hyperthyroidism and transient hypothyroidism, occurs in 5-9% of women. It is accompanied by the presence of circulating antithyroid peroxidase antibodies (TPOAb) which have been associated with an increase in depressive symptomatology compared with TPOAb-negative women. There was a 70% chance of developing recurrent PPT after a first attack, and a 25% risk even in women who were only anti-TPO positive without thyroid dysfunction during the first postpartum period. The recurrence of postpartum depression was not related to thyroid function. Patients noted to have thyroid dysfunction or just to be euthyroid but anti-TPO positive after pregnancy should be assessed carefully after a subsequent pregnancy Article

    Amiodarone is a benzofuranic-derivative iodine-rich drug widely used for the treatment of tachyarrhythmias and, to a lesser extent, of ischemic heart disease. It often causes changes in thyroid function tests (typically an increase in serum T(4) and rT(3), and a decrease in serum T(3), concentrations), mainly related to the inhibition of 5'-deiodinase activity, resulting in a decrease in the generation of T(3) from T(4) and a decrease in the clearance of rT(3). In 14-18% of amiodarone-treated patients, there is overt thyroid dysfunction, either amiodarone-induced thyrotoxicosis (AIT) or amiodarone-induced hypothyroidism (AIH). Abstract

    Antiepileptic drugs (AED) are a heterogeneous group of compounds widely used in both adults and children. These drugs are related to various adverse effects involving several organs and endocrinological and metabolic functions. In particular, relevant effects on thyroid function have been described. Subclinical hypothyroidism and alterations in thyroid hormone serum levels are reported in the literature; phenytoin, valproate and carbamazepine, in particular, seem to be involved in these alterations.
