Obesity is a complex and multifaceted public health problem. This commentary reflects on a new theoretical model of obesity (i.e. Homeostatic Theory of Obesity proposed by Marks), and calls for additional research to examine biopsychosocial factors that may be of importance in developing interventions that promote long-term maintenance of weight loss and in developing obesity prevention programs. Furthermore, we discuss the role of socioeconomic factors in obesity and call for interdisciplinary efforts to address obesity risk factors in the interest of public health.
肥胖是一个复杂且多方面的公共卫生问题。本评论文章对一种新的肥胖理论模型（即马克斯提出的肥胖稳态理论）进行了思考，并呼吁开展更多研究，以检验生物心理社会因素，这些因素在制定促进长期维持体重减轻的干预措施以及制定肥胖预防计划方面可能具有重要意义。此外，我们还讨论了社会经济因素在肥胖中的作用，并呼吁跨学科努力，以应对肥胖风险因素，维护公众健康。
