Childhood Obesity

Abstract

Severely obese children and adolescents are at high risk of suffering obesity-related comorbidities. This article is to examine the dose-response relationship between weight status and cardiometabolic risk factors among US adolescents. Youths aged 6-19 years participating in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys (NHANES) 1999-2012 were included (N = 20,905). Severe obesity was defined as BMI ≥120% of 95th percentile of gender-specific BMI-for-age or BMI ≥35 kg/m(2). Obesity-related cardiometabolic risk factors included blood pressure (BP), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL), total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides, and fasting glucose (FG). Weighted multiple logistic regression was used to assess whether severe obesity significantly changed the odds of having cardiometabolic risk factors. The prevalence of high BP, high TC, low HDL, high triglycerides, high LDL, and high FG among severely obese adolescents was 9.9%, 16.5%, 40.0%, 30.0%, 13.0%, and 26.8%, respectively. Severely obese adolescents had at least twice the odds compared to normal weight adolescents of presenting high BP (OR = 5.3, 95% CI: 3.8-7.3); high TC (OR = 2.3, 95% CI: 1.8-3.0); low HDL (OR = 7.3,...Continue Reading

Cardiovascular Disease Pathophysiology

Cardiovascular disease involves several different processes that contribute to the pathological mechanism, including hyperglycemia, inflammation, atherosclerosis, hypertension and more. Vasculature stability plays a critical role in the development of the disease. Discover the latest research on cardiovascular disease pathophysiology here.
