Genetic and Syndromic Causes of Obesity and its Management.
Indian Journal of Pediatrics 2018 June
The aim of this article is to provide an in depth review of the rare genetic and syndromic forms of childhood obesity. The authors demonstrate the complexity and inter-relationships of the leptin-melanocortin signaling pathway and its central nervous system and systemic effects. Authors highlight the clinical distinctive features of genetic/syndromic causes for childhood obesity, in particular, relative shorter height to their genetic potential, developmental challenges and in some instances, ophthalmological and retina changes. They outline specific genetic testing and treatment options available for these conditions.
