Body image dissatisfaction appears to independently impinge upon the sexual response cycle and mental health outcomes, irrespective of body weight. However, very few studies examine obesity, body image, and sexual function in tandem. The pathophysiological effects of obesity on sexual function are well-documented in mechanistic studies and animal trials, often with corroboration in human clinical samples.
A literature search of biomedical and psychological databases was used to identify research pertaining to obesity, sexual function, and/or body image constructs. This narrative review evaluates the research linkages between obesity and sexual dysfunction, with particular attention to the potential effects of body image dissatisfaction. Despite evidence linking obesity and its concomitant pathophysiology to sexual problems, the potential roles of psychosocial factors such as body image are understudied. Obesity not only contributes to several health complications including type 2 diabetes mellitus and cardiovascular disease, but the condition is also associated with sexual dysfunction in both women and men.
This role for the base units continues in the present SI even though the SI itself is now defined in terms of the defining constants listed above.With approximately two-thirds of the United States adult population classified as overweight or obese, obesity remains a critical public health concern. The seven base units were chosen for historical reasons, and were, by convention, regarded as dimensionally independent: the metre, the kilogram, the second, the ampere, the kelvin, the mole, and the candela. Prior to the historic vote by the BIPM's Member States on 16 November 2018 to revise the SI, the SI was defined in terms of seven base units and derived units defined as products of powers of the base units. The SI is defined by the SI Brochure, published by the BIPM.
