摘要

The prevalence of obesity has been increasing for over a century (18) and substantially in the past several decades (31), affecting 300 millions people worldwide (50). In the developed countries, obesity is the fifth most serious risk factor for disability-adjusted life years (51). In Italy, the prevalence of obesity has increased from 8.5% in 2002 to 10.2% in 2006 (21). The functional consequences of this conditions are only recently beginning to be unveiled. Basic activities (17, 19, 24, 25, 48), raising from a chair, lifting an object (25, 28, 39, 51), walking or carrying bags (25, 41, 45, 48, 52), and occupational tasks (8, 13, 25, 38, 44, 49, 52) have recently been shown to be impaired. The spine shows a limited flexibility and increased dorsal stiffness (26, 29). Hips also show a reduced range of motion and are frequently affected by early degenerative phenomena (29, 39, 45). Posture is affected linearly with the increase of BMI (20, 28), similar to what occurs in later stages of pregnancy (16): the center of gravity shifts forward, the lumbar lordosis increases together with the pelvic forward tilt, the dorsal kyphosis and a secondary cervical lordosis become more pronounced (9, 11, 20, 43). Obesity seems therefore linked to reduced balance and increased risk of falling (6, 11). Despite greater muscle mass, obese subjects are significantly weaker than normal-weight subjects (5).
