Difference between Obesity and Stroke

Obesity vs. Stroke

Obesity is a medical condition in which excess body fat has accumulated to the extent that it may have a negative effect on health. A stroke is a medical condition in which poor blood flow to the brain results in cell death.

Similarities between Obesity and Stroke

Obesity and Stroke have 28 things in common (in Unionpedia): Antidepressant, Cancer, Coronary artery bypass surgery, Coronary artery disease, Deep vein thrombosis, Dementia, Diabetes mellitus, Disease, Exercise, Heart failure, Hippocrates, Hypercholesterolemia, Hypertension, Major depressive disorder, Migraine, Mortality rate, Myocardial infarction, National Health Service, Neurology, Obesity, Public health, Pulmonary embolism, Stroke, Thrombosis, Tobacco smoking, United States Preventive Services Task Force, Urinary incontinence, World Health Organization.

Antidepressant
