Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The dramatic worldwide rise in obesity and related cardiometabolic diseases, such as type 2 diabetes, atherosclerosis, and chronic renal failure, is reaching epidemic proportions and poses a serious global threat to human health. While different types of lifestyle interventions and various drug treatments are currently available, new discoveries are still needed to better understand the pathophysiology of the cardiometabolic diseases and expand the therapeutic arsenal and/or strategies for improving patient’s health.
In the framework of this Special Issue, submission of both original research manuscripts and review articles will be encouraged on any relevant subjects linked to the development of novel therapeutic strategies for obesity and cardiometabolic diseases.
