Sedentary lifestyles and increased pollution brought about by industrialization pose major challenges to the prevention of both obesity and chronic respiratory diseases such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), asthma, obstructive sleep apnea and obesity hypoventilation syndrome. Obesity has emerged as an important risk factor for these respiratory diseases, and in many instances weight loss is associated with important symptomatic improvement. Moreover, obesity may influence the development and presentation of these diseases. In this article, we review the current understanding of the influence of obesity on chronic respiratory diseases and the clinical management of obesity concurrent with asthma, COPD, obstructive sleep apnea or obesity hypoventilation syndrome.
久坐不动的生活方式以及工业化带来的污染加剧，给肥胖症和慢性呼吸道疾病（如慢性阻塞性肺疾病、哮喘、阻塞性睡眠呼吸暂停和肥胖低通气综合征）的预防带来了重大挑战。肥胖已成为这些呼吸道疾病的重要危险因素，在许多情况下，体重减轻与症状的显著改善相关。此外，肥胖可能会影响这些疾病的发生和表现。在本文中，我们综述了目前对肥胖对慢性呼吸道疾病影响的认识，以及合并哮喘、慢性阻塞性肺疾病、阻塞性睡眠呼吸暂停或肥胖低通气综合征的肥胖症的临床管理。
