Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) affects approximately one-tenth of the world's adult population and causes millions of premature deaths worldwide[6]. Studies show that the prevalence of CKD in Malaysia is 15.48%, and the incidence of end-stage kidney disease requiring dialysis is increasing, with 216 cases per million population in 2016, compared to 96 cases per million population in 2002[6].

This article discusses dialysis, including what it is, when it's necessary, the causes of dialysis, and how much it costs. Additionally, we look at how long dialysis can help, if it can be avoided, and whether dialysis is a one-way street.

The article discusses how the traditional measure of obesity, Body Mass Index (BMI), may not accurately reflect an individual's level of obesity due to its inability to distinguish between fat and muscle, or reflect the distribution of body fat. The article explains that waist circumference is a more meaningful measure of obesity compared to BMI and body fat percentage since excessive waist circumference, also known as central obesity, increases the health risks associated with obesity. The article also notes that monitoring waist circumference during weight loss is more meaningful than solely controlling body weight since reducing body fat and increasing muscle mass can have a significant impact on body shape, such as waist circumference, hip circumference, and arm circumference. Overall, the article highlights the importance of using waist circumference in conjunction with other measures to assess obesity and track weight loss progress.

近年来，“腰围大小是否比体重更重要？”成为备受关注的问题。然而，传统的肥胖度量标准——身体质量指数（BMI），由于无法区分脂肪和肌肉，或反映体脂分布，可能无法准确反映个体的肥胖程度。相比之下，腰围是比BMI和体脂率更能标准的测量肥胖。太大的腰围，也称为中心性肥胖，会增加肥胖相关的健康风险，如代谢综合症和其他慢性疾病。
