The spread of obesity in a large social network over 32 years
• Obesity can “spread” from person to person, and that this spread depends on the nature of social ties: – a person's chance of becoming obese
increased by 171% if he or she had a mutual friend who had become obese (even if they lived far away).
• Their risk increased by 40% if it was their sibling or spouse who became obese.
N Engl J Med. 2007;357:370–379.
The spread of obesity in a large social network over 32 years
• The study authors concluded that the social network is a crucial component—perhaps more so than genetics—in explaining obesity, a problem normally thought of as solely biological and behavioral.
N Engl J Med. 2007;357:370–379.
MASH IT UP!
Imagine…Scientific Journals• Content is
submitted by the community.
• Peer reviewed by the community
Imagine…Bookmarking• A patient finds a site
with information on a particular disease and they can follow clinical trial information that other people have marked.
Imagine…• An entire medical
practice of patients and physicians linked in an electronic community, in constant communication
