Introduction: Childhood obesity is an increasing condition associated with continuous into adulthood and development of comorbidities. Adult studies show association between serum uric acid (SUA) levels body mass index (BMI). The aim this retro perspective exploratory study was to investigate SUA in obese children adolescents the effects a subsequent weight reduction. Materials Methods: One hundred seventy-one (age 4-18), (i.e. BMI-SDS +2 or higher) were included multifactorial lifestyle...

The objective of this study was to investigate whether long-term weight change in children with obesity is affected after deciding not participate a lifestyle intervention. This observational included 713 (aged 5-8 years) living Aarhus, Denmark, whom 157 decided community-based intervention between 2010 and 2020, 556 were never invited (i.e., no-intervention group). Height measurements combined socioeconomic information from national registers. A mixed-effects model splines used changes BMI...

Summary Introduction Limited insight exists into the weight development in children with obesity not receiving treatment. Methods This cohort study included 467 Danish aged 5–10 years (iso‐BMI >30 kg/m 2 ) Data from mandatory health check‐ups on school‐children's height and (converted to BMI z ‐scores) were merged National Registries. A multivariable logistic regression weighted for duration of follow‐up was used estimate odds ratios (OR) normalization 18.5–25 remission 18.5–30 ). Results...

Introduction Several evaluations of lifestyle interventions for childhood obesity exist; however, follow-up beyond two years is necessary to validate the effect. The aim present study was investigate long-term weight development following children participating in one pragmatic family-centered with obesity. Methods This real-life observational included Danish 4-17 age classified as having Data from 2010-2020, community-based (designated hereafter Aarhus- and Randers-intervention) were merged...

Accurate and efficient body composition assessment is essential for diagnosing monitoring childhood obesity in clinical research settings. This study evaluated the agreement between bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) assessing its changes during a long-term lifestyle intervention children adolescents with obesity. We hypothesized that BIA comparable to DXA tracking longitudinal this population. The included 92 5 17 years of age (mean 10.5 ± 2.9...

Childhood obesity is associated with impaired Quality-of-Life (QoL), increased stigmatization and higher risk of development depression compared to their peers. This report describes the long-term in QoL for cohort children after a sustainable weight reduction.This pragmatic descriptive intervention study enrolled 120 obesity, age 5-17 years, multifactorial lifestyle intervention. The was an across sectors collaboration between department pediatrics community health care workers. assessed...

Abstract Children living with obesity are prevalent worldwide. It is an established finding that many children who start a lifestyle intervention tend to leave prematurely. The aim of this study was identify characteristics in prematurely intervention. cohort includes aged 4–17, treated Danish family-centered between 2014 and 2017. Data were collected from patient records. BMI-SDS calculated using external reference population multivariable regression analysis used answer the research...

Abstract Background To evaluate long-term effects of a multifactorial lifestyle intervention on measures quality-of-life (QoL) in children with obesity. Methods One hundred and twenty age 4-17 years BMI standard deviation score (BMI-SDS) >2 participated intervention. QoL wellbeing were measured by 6-item Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) throughout the Results Follow-up time was 26.4 months (13.9 SD). VAS scores decreased bullying (0.6 vs. 0.0 median) motivation (10.0 9.6). increased BMI-SDS...
