To establish, among the cut-off values for homeostatic model assessment insulin resistance index (HOMA-IR) cited in literature, best identifying metabolic syndrome (MS) obese and overweight children.A total of 106 pre-pubertal children were studied. The definition MS was adapted from that International Diabetes Federation. For each HOMA-IR, it estimated sensibility specificity MS. A receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve generated using these values.The study included (37 girls 69...

Leptin has been suggested as a potential biomarker of cardiovascular risk. This paper aims to ascertain, based on sample prepubertal children, which serum leptin value best suited identify metabolic syndrome (MS).This observational, cross-sectional study recruited children from the outpatient pediatrics clinic, with purpose validating level cutoffs MS. All obese and overweight who met eligibility criteria were included in study, was normal-weight children. The underwent clinical assessment...

To compare bone mineral density (BMD) in children and adolescents with celiac disease (CD) control subjects to evaluate diet adequacy calcium metabolism patients CD.Thirty asymptomatic CD (17 children, 13 adolescents), on a gluten-free diet, 23 healthy were studied. BMD of the lumbar spine (dual energy x-ray absorptiometry) was performed all subjects. In patients, food diaries for nine nonconsecutive days obtained analyzed. laboratory tests pertaining balance obtained.The mean weight height...

The prevalence of obesity is increasing. aim this study was to investigate if there endothelial dysfunction in children with normal or excess weight, and whether the metabolic profile, adipokines, would be more strongly associated physical fitness activity levels.Cross-sectional involving aged 5-12 years. evaluation included venous occlusion plethysmography, serum levels adiponectin, leptin insulin, lipid score (PAQ-C questionnaire), (Yo-Yo test).A total 62 participated study. Based on body...

Abstract Early exposure to cardiovascular risk factors creates a chronic inflammatory state that could damage the endothelium followed by thickening of carotid intima-media. To investigate association and intima Media in prepubertal children. In this cross-sectional study, intima-media thickness (cIMT) were assessed 129 children aged from 5 10 year. Association was simple multivariate logistic regression analyses. analyses, body mass index (BMI) z-score, waist circumference, systolic blood...

Objective: Insulin resistance has a central role in the pathophysiology of cardiovascular atherosclerotic disease. Adipose tissue is capital importance view its production adipo­kines. The present study aims to determine association metabolic syndrome components, which constitute risk factors for disease, and leptin adiponectin with insulin prepubertal children.

Abstract.To evaluate, using ultrasound, the distribution of abdominal fat in obese prepubertal children, as well its possible correlation with metabolic changes due to obesity.This was a cross-sectional study prepubescent children: 77 children (33 girls and 44 boys), mean age 7.31 years; 31 normal-weight (17 14 7.32 years. In all wall thickness (AWT) (AFT) were measured by ultrasound. For evaluation associated alterations, serum levels glycemia, HDL cholesterol, triglycerides, insulin...

The present study was designed to compare the bone mineral density of children and adolescents with celiac disease controls, evaluate laboratory analysis calcium metabolism patients.Thirty patients (17 children, 13 adolescents), on a gluten-free diet, 23 healthy subjects were studied. Tests lumbar spine (DEXA, Lunar) performed in all controls. Laboratory patients.Mean weight height lower than mean controls (p<0.05). Bone significantly reduced if compared (p=0.015), whereas no significant...
