| Title: | The Influence of Obesity on Treatment and Outcome of Severely Burned Patients. |
| Abstract: | Obesity and the related medical, social, and economic impacts are relevant multifactorial and chronic conditions that also have a meaningful impact on outcomes following a severe injury, including burns. In addition to burn-specific difficulties, such as adequate hypermetabolic response, fluid resuscitation, and early wound coverage, obese patients also present with common comorbidities, such as arterial hypertension, diabetes mellitus, or nonalcoholic fatty liver disease. In addition, the pathophysiologic response to severe burns can be enhanced. Besides the increased morbidity and mortality compared to burn patients with normal weight, obese patients present a challenge in fluid resuscitation, perioperative management, and difficulties in wound healing. The present work is an in-depth review of the current understanding of the influence of obesity on the management and outcome of severe burns. |

| I01 | 552 | Pneumonia | A lung disease that involves lung parenchyma or alveolar inflammation and abnormal alveolar filling with fluid (consolidation and exudation). It results from a variety of causes including infection with bacteria, viruses, fungi or parasites, and chemical or physical injury to the lungs. It is accompanied by fever, chills, cough, and difficulty in breathing. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pneumonia | disease of anatomical entity/respiratory system disease/ lower respiratory tract disease/lung disease | Details |

| I05 | 9352 | Type 2 diabetes mellitus | A diabetes that is characterized by chronic hyperglycaemia with disturbances of carbohydrate, fat and protein metabolism resulting from defects in insulin secretion, insulin action, or both.
