期刊描述简介:
Original Articles which report on clinical, population health and laboratory investigations and observations from both human and animal studies in all areas relevant to the broad area of child and adolescent obesity including its critical periods of development from the neonatal period to young adulthood. Please note that the following papers will not be considered high priority for publication in Pediatric Obesity: Simple prevalence studies involving a single country at a single time-point. Studies that replicate the findings of previously published paper Studies that report the absence of links between obesity and a specific genotype or polymorphism Studies that simply describe associations between anthropometric indices of obesity and basic plasma markers of co-morbidities Intervention studies that do not have a control group and/or are not randomized

Improved food habits and anthropometry among primary school children following a novel healthy eating programme.
Assess longer-term changes in food habits and anthropometry among Grades 1-2 primary school students from four public schools in Colombo, Sri Lanka, following a 3-week programme including a classroom-based motivational storybook discussion and self-monitoring food diary (FD). This follow-up study assessed changes from baseline (pre-intervention) BMI z-scores and food habits (increased healthy food-item consumption/decreased unhealthy food-item consumption reflected by an increase in FD score) and parental perceptions (anonymous questionnaires) among 863 students (aged 6-8 years), between 9 and 12 months after completing the programme (November 2019-February 2020). Food habits showed sustained improvement from baseline mean FD score (baseline vs. follow-up: 51 ± 23% vs. 67 ± 22%, p < 0.001), with children from all BMI subgroups (underweight [UW], normal weight [NW], overweight [OW] and obesity [OB]) showing a significant increase in FD scores (ranging from 14.1% to 17.2%, p < 0.001). BMI z-scores increased in children living with UW (-2.85 to -2.21, p < 0.00) and NW (-0.70 to -0.57, p < 0.001), but did not change in children with OW (+1.5 to +1.49, p = 0.83) and OB (+2.85 to +2.21, p = 0.19). Most parents (n = 497, 97.8%) reported satisfaction with programme outcomes. This programme led to sustained improvement in food habits among young primary school children from all BMI categories, increase in BMI towards the median among children living with UW and NW, and stabilization of BMI in children with OW and OB, suggesting it as a useful tool for improving nutritional status of young children in low- and middle-income countries (LMIC) facing the double burden of under- and overnutrition.

Effect of Indo-Mediterranean diet versus calorie-restricted diet in children with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease: A pilot randomized control trial.
Dietary interventions and increased physical activity are the cornerstones for management of the paediatric non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Though, no specific diet has been proven superior, Indo-Mediterranean diet (IMD) has shown promise in adult literature. Thus, we aimed to compare the effect of IMD and a standard calorie-restricted diet (CRD) in Indian overweight children and adolescents with biopsy-proven NAFLD. Thirty-nine consecutive biopsy-proven NAFLD children between the ages of 8 and 18 years were randomized into either IMD or CRD for 180 days, and various parameters were evaluated at baseline and then after 180 days (NCT05073588). A total of 34 subjects (18 in IMD and 16 in CRD group) completed the study. There was a significantly higher decrease in controlled attenuation parameter (CAP) values (as a marker of hepatic steatosis; on transient elastography) (95% CI: 4.2-73.4, p = 0.042), weight (95% CI: 0.75-5.5, p = 0.046) and body mass index (BMI) (95% CI: 0.21-2.05, p = 0.014) (but not in Pediatric NAFLD Fibrosis Index or PNFI; as a marker of hepatic fibrosis) in IMD group compared to the CRD group. Liver stiffness measurement, serum cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein levels and HOMA-IR decreased only in the IMD group (p < 0.001). Our statistical model showed that delta-Weight was the only independent variable associated with delta-CAP. Both IMD and CRD can improve the various anthropometric, clinical, imaging and biochemical parameters but IMD was superior to CRD in terms of reducing CAP values and weight/BMI over 180 days in overweight/obese NAFLD children.
