ISSUE ADDRESSED: Most food and nutrition programs cease within 2 years. Understanding the determinants of program sustainability is crucial to maximise output from funding, whilst allowing sufficient time for program benefits to be achieved. This study applied the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research (CFIR) to map the barriers and enablers of successful long-term implementation of school-based nutrition and food programs. METHODS: Qualitative methods with purposive and snowball sampling were used to recruit experts who were identified as being influential in implementing and sustaining long-term (>2 years) school-based food and nutrition programs...

AIMS/HYPOTHESIS: Type 1 diabetes is a T cell-mediated autoimmune disease characterised by pancreatic beta cell destruction. In this study, we explored the pathogenic immune responses in initiation of type 1 diabetes and new immunological targets for type 1 diabetes prevention and treatment. METHODS: We obtained peripheral blood samples from four individuals with newly diagnosed latent autoimmune diabetes in adults (LADA) and from four healthy control participants...

OBJECTIVE: Childhood obesity represents a serious public health problem and given its multifactorial nature and its consequences; it is necessary to carry out an effective approach. The Spanish system of autonomies, with delegated powers, could accentuate inequality in its approach. The objective of the study was to know the existence or not of these inequalities. METHODS: A descriptive cross-sectional study was carried out between the months of February-April 2022, in which the approach to childhood obesity was compared among the seventeen communities and two autonomous cities, through the analysis of the following indicators: pediatric staff, pediatric nursing, nutrition personnel and their legal recognition, the existence of comprehensive plans and health expenditure on childhood obesity...

BACKGROUND: Childhood obesity is a pressing health crisis of epidemic proportions. Bariatric surgery (BS) is an effective weight loss solution however its role in the paediatric population is contentious owing to the paucity of weight specific and generalised health outcomes. This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to assess the impact of paediatric BS on bone health. METHODS: This prospectively registered systematic review (PROSPERO ID: CRD42023432035) was performed in accordance with PRISMA guidelines...

BACKGROUND: Paediatric obesity disproportionately impacts individuals from minoritized racial and ethnic backgrounds. Recent guidelines support use of anti-obesity pharmacotherapy for adolescents with obesity, but the potential impact on disparities in obesity prevalence has not been evaluated. OBJECTIVES: To model changes in obesity prevalence with increasing utilization of anti-obesity pharmacotherapy among adolescents. METHODS: Data representative of American adolescents ages 12-17 years were obtained from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, cycles 2011 through pre-pandemic 2020...

Morbid obesity is a systemic disease which can result in chronic complications, including hypertension, diabetes mellitus, depression, osteoarthritis and low self-esteem in the adolescent population.Bariatric surgery can be indicated to treat more severe forms of obesity, but these procedures are not without long-term risks. Therefore, adequate preoperative and postoperative care, which includes preoperative psychosocial evaluation for compliance, ongoing nutrition counselling and vitamin and micronutrient supplementation, is required for all patients, especially adolescent patients, who generally may not comply with medical therapies and/or be able to developmentally fully appreciate or comprehend the health consequences of their behaviours, prior to as well as after bariatric surgery to prevent complications...

INTRODUCTION: Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is increasingly prevalent in obese adolescents. Increased systemic inflammation and decreased gut microbial diversity linked to obesity affect the liver and are also associated with cardiovascular diseases in adulthood. However, NAFLD and vascular alterations are reversible. METHODS AND ANALYSIS: This pilot study evaluated the feasibility of a prospective open-label randomised controlled trial evaluating the effects of polyphenols on NAFLD and vascular parameters in obese adolescents...

OBJECTIVE: Rising prevalence of obesity has led to increased rates of prediabetes and diabetes mellitus (DM) in children. This study compares rates of prediabetes and diabetes using two recommended screening tests (fasting plasma glucose [FPG] and haemoglobin A1c [HbA1c]). STUDY DESIGN: Data were collected prospectively from 37 multi-component paediatric weight management programs in POWER (Paediatric Obesity Weight Evaluation Registry). RESULTS: For this study, 3962 children with obesity without a known diagnosis of DM at presentation and for whom concurrent measurement of FPG and HbA1c were available were evaluated (median age 12...

Children with acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) are at risk for obesity and cardiometabolic diseases. To gain insight into body composition changes among children with ALL, we assessed quantitative computed tomography (QCT) data for specific body compartments (subcutaneous adipose tissue [SAT], visceral adipose tissue [VAT], total adipose tissue [TAT], lean tissue [LT], LT/TAT and VAT/SAT at lumbar vertebrae L1 and L2) at diagnosis and at off-therapy for 189 children with ALL and evaluated associations between body mass index (BMI) Z-score and clinical characteristics...

OBJECTIVES: This scoping review informs a health economics perspective on the treatment of paediatric obesity. The results detail recently published research findings on the cost-effectiveness of paediatric obesity treatments and identify key characteristics of cost-effective interventions. METHODS: A structured search was applied to six databases with no data restriction through March 2023: Medline, Embase, Cochrane CENTRAL, CINAHL, and PsycINFO. Studies that included a cost analysis of an individual level, weight management intervention (behavioural, pharmacotherapy, and surgical) in youth, with obesity, ages 2 to 21 years were eligible for inclusion...

OBJECTIVES: Obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) are growing health concerns. Since 2005, Student Health Service (SHS) and Hong Kong Paediatric Society formulated a protocol on urine glucose screening (UGS) for early diagnosis of T2DM in students with obesity in Hong Kong. This study reviews students with T2DM captured by this screening program and compare the data with the Hong Kong Children Diabetes Registry (HKCDR) database, to see if the UGS program facilitates early diagnosis of T2DM...

(1) Background: Ultrasound elastography is a novel ultrasound technique for evaluating tissue elasticity. One of the key factors influencing the measurement in children is excess weight. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of body composition, namely, fat mass, on liver and kidney ultrasound elastography in paediatric patients. (2) Methods: 114 participants, in whom bioimpedance, along with liver and kidney ultrasound elastography, were performed, were included (37 patients with chronic kidney disease, 46 patients with hypertension, and 31 healthy subjects)...

BACKGROUND: Childhood obesity is associated with physical and psychological complications thus the prevention of excess weight gain in childhood is an important health goal. Relevant to the prevention of childhood obesity, Australian general practice-specific, preventive care guidelines recommend General Practitioners (GPs) conduct growth monitoring and promote a number of healthy behaviours. However, challenges to providing preventive care in general practice may impact implementation...

The prevalence of obesity in children and adolescents is increasing, and it is recognised as a complex disorder that often begins in early childhood and persists throughout life. Both polygenic and monogenic obesity are influenced by a combination of genetic predisposition and environmental factors. Rare genetic obesity forms are caused by specific pathogenic variants in single genes that have a significant impact on weight regulation, particularly genes involved in the leptin-melanocortin pathway. Genetic testing is recommended for patients who exhibit rapid weight gain in infancy and show additional clinical features suggestive of monogenic obesity as an early identification allows for appropriate treatment, preventing the development of obesity-related complications, avoiding the failure of traditional treatment approaches...
