We have been very happy to get around 2,000 papers out of our established search strategy in PubMed, which have been saved in our 2018 Yearbook EndNote database. We have then selected 20 papers (1%), which in our mind have been the most exciting ones. The highlights in this year’s chapter are publications about new adipokines - microRNAs released from adipose tissue and asprosin which has orexigenic and glucogenic activities - , about newly discovered genes causing monogenic childhood obesity, about fascinating treatment options for monogenic obesity, as well as about new aspects of obesity surgery in adolescents. The 2018 Yearbook chapter on obesity and weight regulation comprises further exciting articles covering a broad research area.
