Building Consensus - A Framework for Lipedema Research Definitions

  • Today I’d like to tell you about an open-access paper titled, Proposed Framework for Research Case Definitions of Lipedema
  • It was published in Lymphatic Research and Biology Volume 22, Number 2 in March 2024.
  • This work aims to describe the clinical, instrumental, and blood test results of a large population of women affected by lipedema in the lower body.
  • In this episode, we explore the importance of a research case definition for lipedema, highlighting how it helps accurately identify study participants and control group members to enhance research validity.
