The health outcomes of men are significantly worse, when compared with their female counterparts, for the top 15 leading causes of death nationwide. At this time, men are not actively engaged in the health care system, creating a challenge for those managing patients in the clinical setting. The premature morbidity and mortality of men financially burdens the health care system and places a financial strain in secondary and tertiary preventive care that is simply not sustainable. Obesity is a catalyst that fuels disease and is directly responsible for the pathogenesis for the disease claiming the lives of men nationwide.
在全国排名前 15 的主要死因中，男性的健康状况明显比女性差。此时，男性并没有积极参与医疗保健系统，这给那些在临床环境中管理患者的人带来了挑战。男性的过早发病和死亡给医疗保健系统带来了经济负担，并对二级和三级预防保健造成了经济压力，而这种压力是根本无法持续的。肥胖是一种催化剂，它会引发疾病，并直接导致全国男性死亡的疾病的发病机制。
