Rates of class III, or greater, obesity have risen among adolescents in the United States. Metabolic and bariatric surgery (MBS) is a safe and effective treatment option for severe obesity among teenagers that results in improvements in cardiometabolic and psychosocial health. Despite its effectiveness, MBS remains largely underutilized and misconceptions exist among providers, parents/guardians, and adolescents. In addition, adolescents who have undergone MBS procedures report there are some topics they wish they had known more about before surgery and express concern that their unique needs are not understood...

Background: Children with disabilities are twice as likely to have overweight/obesity than their typically developing peers. Higher weights in these individuals may compound challenges already experienced with their disability, including mobility and activities of daily living. However, children with disabilities often find it challenging accessing weight management care. It is therefore important to understand the experiences and needs of the health care professionals (HCPs) who work in specialized pediatric weight management clinics about providing weight-related care to children with disabilities...

Background: A bidirectional association between shape and weight concerns (SWC) and physical activity (PA) has been previously documented. This relationship may be particularly salient among youth with overweight/obesity, given that social marginalization of larger bodies has been associated with elevated SWC and barriers to PA. This pilot study explores reciprocal relationships between momentary SWC and accelerometer-assessed PA behavior. Methods: Youth with overweight/obesity ( N  = 17) participated in a 14-day ecological momentary assessment protocol, during which they were prompted to respond to questions about SWC several times per day...

The COVID-19 pandemic has been associated with increases in pediatric obesity and widening pre-existing disparities. To better understand the pandemic's long-term impacts, we evaluated trends in obesity across different demographic groups during the pandemic through December 2022. Using a retrospective cohort design, we analyzed electronic health record data from a large pediatric primary care network. Logistic regression models fit using generalized estimating equations estimated odds ratios (ORs) for changes in the level and trajectory of obesity across 2-year month-matched periods: prepandemic (June 2017 to December 2019) and pandemic (June 2020 to December 2022)...
