What Is Obesity Hypoventilation Syndrome? Obesity hypoventilation (HI-po-ven-tih-LA-shun) syndrome (OHS) is a breathing disorder that affects some obese people.

Click on photo for a larger picture. In the photo above, I am holding two small vials of liquid metal. The vial on the right contains gallium, an element that melts at 29.76Â° Celsius (85.57Â° Fahrenheit). The vial on the left is an alloy that contains gallium, indium, and tin, and melts at -20Â° Celsius (-4Â° Fahrenheit). The gallium is liquid because I had the bottle in my shirt pocket, next to my warm body.
