HS&DR programmeThe Health Services and Delivery Research (HS&DR) programme, part of the National Institute for Health Research (NIHR), was established to fund a broad range of research. It combines the strengths and contributions of two previous NIHR research programmes: the Health Services Research (HSR) programme and the Service Delivery and Organisation (SDO) programme, which were merged in January 2012.The HS&DR programme aims to produce rigorous and relevant evidence on the quality, access and organisation of health services including costs and outcomes, as well as research on implementation. The programme will enhance the strategic focus on research that matters to the NHS and is keen to support ambitious evaluative research to improve health services.For more information about the HS&DR programme please visit the website: http://www.nets.nihr.ac.uk/programmes/hsdr This reportThe research reported in this issue of the journal was funded by the HS&DR programme or one of its preceding programmes as project number 12/5005/12.

Obesity is a major contributor to many chronic diseases and, because more than 1 in 3 US adults are obese, 1 a public health challenge. The goal of new obesity guidelines is to help primary care clinicians manage obesity more effectively. Obesity 2 (published as "2013 ACCF/ AHA/TOS Guidelines for the Management of Overweight and Obesity in Adults" 2 ) has been long awaited. The expert panel for Obesity 2 was first convened in September 2008 by the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) and tasked with updating Obesity 1 (published in 1998 as "Clinical Guidelines on the Identification, Evaluation, and Treatment of Overweight and Obesity in Adults-The Evidence Report" 3 ). In 2013, the NHLBI elected to partner with the American Heart Association and the American College of Cardiology to promote and publish the guidelines. 4 The approach to guideline development followed the Institute of Medicine reports "Clinical Practice Guidelines We Can Trust" 5 and "Finding What Works in Health Care-Standards for Systematic Reviews." 6 The aim of this stringent methodology was to limit bias and produce trustworthy recommendations. Because of time and cost, the use of this stringent methodology limited both the scope of literature review under consideration (1999)(2000)(2001)(2002)(2003)(2004)(2005)(2006)(2007)(2008)(2009)(2010)(2011) and the number of critical questions.From 23 critical questions suggested, the chosen 5 dealt with risks of overweight and obesity and the benefits of weight loss and evaluated 3 treatment areasdiet, behavioral therapies, and surgery. Questions 1 and 2 were chosen to help clinicians determine the appropriate criteria to guide a weight loss recommendation. Question 1 addressed the degree to which weight loss produces health benefits. Question 2 addressed the health risks of overweight and obesity and sought to determine if the current waist circumference and body mass index (BMI) cutpoints defining persons as overweight (BMI 25-29.9) and obese (BMI Ն30) are appropriate. Question 3 asked which dietary strategies are acceptable for weight loss efforts. Question 4 sought to determine the efficacy of a comprehensive lifestyle intervention approach (diet, physical activity, and behavior therapy) to achieve weight loss and weight loss maintenance. Question 5 addressed the efficacy and safety of various bariatric surgical procedures, including benefits and risks. To conserve resources for questions 3 through 5, questions 1 and 2 used primarily metaanalyses and systematic reviews.Because the questions were limited in number and scope, the recommendations are supplemented with an algorithm ("Chronic Disease Management Model for Primary Care of Patients With Overweight and Obesity") that incorporates recommendations and expert opinion to provide a roadmap for primary care clinicians.
