“…At times, one could get caught up in his or her own world of thoughts, perception, far away from reality, sometimes referred to as the proverbial ivory tower (Lederberg, 1972). Science for the sake of science is, per se, not without merit, with our fragmented understanding of a given issue providing ample justification for experimentation to provide rational basis for a more complete explication, even though one might not avoid the issue of clearly usage of terms within their framework of credible means, such as reasonable interpretation, actual knowledge, data and context, leaving emphasis on the proper context and validation of data as impetus for this editorial for further consideration (Dreyer et al, 2000;Schmidt and Brown, 2015;Storsberg and Schmidt, 2015;Brown et al, 2016).…”

Abstract:The question whether aberrant signaling of immune cells are causing obesity, or whether external influences, such as activity patterns, manifestations of stress responses, or hormonal imbalances constitute onsets of a self-enforcing commitment toward metabolic syndrome and obesity is uncertain. Here, we outline choice examples of basic molecular immunology and illuminate them in the context of observations, so far not disputed by public health clinicians, to provide a critical outlook at this pandemic of industrialized nations.

Understanding problems invariably hinges on a carefully written explication, based on experimental evidence or theoretical analysis, exact description of the phenomena, the experimental settings, as well considering existing precedent and advances over existing literature as presented in this report. As with any discourse, presenting all facets of the issue to be probed has become the cornerstone of the success of scholarly advance where fallacies and/or errors in the interpretation of the results can be traced and corrected at a later time, provided the record in question is available for scrutiny, preferably free of charge to the research community and the general public alike. Here, we draw on previous examples to reiterate the advantages of presenting seemingly adversarial points of view in a given study to allow future examination to be carried out in the proper context.
