The Obermair tool, based on evidence-based risk factors of relapse, thus constitutes a valuable contribution for improving healthcare for women with BOTs (Obermair et al, 2013).
The evidence-based risk factors for overweight are psychological factors [ 7], genetic determinisms [ 8], and adverse changes in general health behaviors, such as physical activity, dietary behavior patterns, smoking, and screen time activities [ 9- 11].
The two postoperative nomograms were based on the most common evidence-based HR factors and constitute a valuable contribution for improving the healthcare for women with EC.
As our findings were partially limited by clinical heterogeneity and the quality of statistical analyses conducted in the included studies, the risk factors reported in this study should be considered candidate evidence-based risk factors until formally evaluated in a prospective multi-centre observational study, which is currently being planned.
We attempted to identify evidence-based prognostic factors in the literature since its inception and to establish pooled relative risks (RR) of such factors.
To summarize, recognizing the evidence-based modifiable factors, especially in the low SES groups of children, and creating an intervention focusing on these factors, might be beneficial for improving health and simultaneously narrowing health inequalities.
The consensus statement also presents the 'Female Athlete Triad: Cumulative Risk Assessment' to provide an objective method of determining an athlete's risk for the Triad using risk stratification and evidence-based risk factors.
By combining evidence-based HR factors, nomograms offer the advantage of condensing the high heterogeneity of the disease into a simple and easily interpretable format.
The recommended treatments, namely cognitive behaviour therapy and serotonin reuptake inhibiting/selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor medications, are outlined along with the existing evidence-based and factors associated with treatment resistance.
