While reading an essay, I came across a phrase "of particular note" unfortunatly, I cannot remember the context. Can anyone tell me what does it mean and provide me with an example?

Without context, it could refer to something that is especially noteworthy. There are plenty of examples here.

Note that "obesity" is a condition, not a disease.
