- The study aimed to investigate weight management practices and perceptions related to obesity in China through a survey conducted between April and July 2022 involving 100 physicians and 801 patients with overweight or obesity.
- A significant number of patients were not diagnosed with obesity until their BMI reached 30 kg/m², and most were undergoing treatment for at least one obesity-related complication, with numerous patients struggling to meet weight loss targets set by themselves or their physicians.
- The findings indicate that there is a substantial gap in effective weight management, highlighting the necessity for earlier interventions and improved strategies to support patients in achieving their weight loss goals.
