INDUSTRY SPONSORED SATELLITE SYMPOSIA
INDUSTRY SPONSORED SATELLITE SYMPOSIA Industry Sponsored Satellite Symposia are sessions that are planned and conducted by the corporate community in conjuntion with ECO2015. They provide attendees with additional educational/informational opportunities but are not part of the official ECO2015 scientific programme. Wednesday, 6 May 2015 16:00 – 17:30 FORUM HALL “New perspectives in weight management” Welcome and introduction Nick Finer (chair) (UK) Novel targets for weight loss Lotte Bjerre Knudsen (Denmark) Emerging approaches to weight management Nick Finer (UK) In people with and without prediabetes David Lau (Canada) In people with type 2 diabetes Luc van Gaal (Belgium) Panel discussion All faculty Wednesday, 6 May 2015 16:00 – 17:30 PANORAMA HALL “Evidence-based weight loss and maintenance with formula diet” Aim: To examine the evidence for the effectiveness of formula diet weight loss and maintenance programmes. Objectives: To review the evidence for weight loss and maintenance associated with meaningful medical endpoints, and identify further research needs. To review the evidence for weight loss before bariatric and knee replacement surgery, determine whether weight loss is needed, review evidence for costs and benefits of weight loss. To review the evidence for the use of formula diet to achieve weight loss in diabetes, describe ongoing trials and describe likely costs and benefits. To examine the evidence for weight loss and maintenance in obesity-associated inflammatory disease focussing on osteoarthritis, review evidence for costs and benefits of weight loss and maintenance. Chair: Anthony R Leeds, University of Copenhagen, Denmark and University of Surrey, UK Slim for surgery: why and how Omar Khan (bariatric surgery) Whittington Hospital, London, UK; and Henning Bliddal (orthopaedic surgery), Parker Institute, Frederiksberg Hospital, Copenhagen, Denmark Diabetes reversal with formula diet Naomi Brosnahan, DiRECT study, University of Glasgow, UK Suppressing inflammatory disease: weight loss and maintenance in osteoarthritis and psoriasis Henning Bliddal, Parker Institute, Frederiksberg Hospital, University of Copenhagen, Denmark Discussion led by Anthony R Leeds Thursday, 7 May 2015 13:15 – 14:45 PANORAMA HALL „Medico-surgical joint session symposium“ MARS – an endocrinologist & surgeon perspective Dr. Karl Miller (Austria) The importance of interdisciplinary co-operation Prof. Nicola Di Lorenzo (Italy) Prof. Dror Dicker (Israel) Bringing together EASO & IFSO – a round table discussion Prof. Volkan Yumuk (Turkey) Prof. Martin Fried (Czech Republic) Thursday, 7 May 2015 13:15 – 14:45 “Scalable Solutions to Manage Obesity and Type 2 Diabetes” MEETING HALL 1 Obesity and type 2 diabetes are diseases that can substantially decrease life expectancy, diminish quality of life and increase healthcare costs. There is a close connection between obesity and diabetes, with almost 85% of people with diabetes being overweight or obese. While behavioral lifestyle modification programs have well-documented effects on preventing diabetes, and improving glycemic control among those with diabetes, most programs are offered in a specialized research setting with limited reach. This interactive symposium of leading weight management and diabetes experts, from Europe and the United States, will present new research on effective, scalable community-based treatment options for both the prevention and treatment of obesity and diabetes.
