PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Around 80-90% of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) are overweight or obese, presenting a greater risk for serious health complications and mortality. Thus, weight loss represents a main goal for T2DM management. Although behavioral lifestyle interventions (BLIs) could help promoting weight loss in T2DM patients with overweight or obesity, their effectiveness is still controversial. This systematic review offers an updated and comprehensive picture of BLIs according to Michie's classification in T2DM patients with overweight or obesity and identifies possible factors (related to both patients and interventions) associated with weight loss...

REVIEW
Fernanda Pessorrusso, Sagar V Mehta, Shelby Sullivan
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Increased morbidity seen with rising obesity rates continues to place an unheralded burden on our health system. Lack of higher bariatric surgery utilization and limitations with lifestyle modification and pharmacotherapy highlights the need for additional therapies for obesity. Endoscopic bariatric and metabolic therapies (EBMT) are effective, safe treatments for obesity. Current FDA-approved EBMT are confined to gastric modalities while small bowel directed therapies are still considered investigational...
