Trajectory of body mass index and height changes from childhood to adolescence: a nationwide birth cohort in Japan

Scientific Reports, 2021
To investigate the dynamics of body mass index (BMI) and height changes in childhood leading to obesity in adolescents. BMI Z-scores were calculated using the LMS (lambda–mu–sigma) method based on yearly height and weight information (age 1.5–15 years ...

Premature Adiposity Rebound in Children Treated for Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia* [PDF]

The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2001
The adiposity rebound (AR), when body mass index begins to increase after its nadir in childhood, is a critical period for the regulation of energy balance and adult obesity risk. The aim of the present study was to test whether children treated for acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) experience premature AR.

Longitudinal association between the timing of adiposity peak and rebound and overweight at seven years of age

BMC Pediatrics, 2022
Background The timing of adiposity peak (AP) or adiposity rebound (AR) is a determinant of overweight or obesity in adolescence and adulthood. However, limited studies have reported the association in young school-age children.

Early infant feeding and adiposity risk: from infancy to adulthood [PDF]

, 2014
Introduction: Systematic reviews suggest that a longer duration of breast-feeding is associated with a reduction in the risk of later overweight and obesity.

Children grow and horses race: is the adiposity rebound a critical period for later obesity?

BMC Pediatrics, 2004
Background The adiposity rebound is the second rise in body mass index that occurs between 3 and 7 years. An early age at adiposity rebound is known to be a risk factor for later obesity.

Cross-sectional associations between sleep duration, sedentary time, physical activity, and adiposity indicators among Canadian preschool-aged children using compositional analyses [PDF]

, 2017
Background Sleep duration, sedentary behaviour, and physical activity are three co-dependent behaviours that fall on the movement/non-movement intensity continuum.

New insights from GWAS on BMI-related growth traits in a longitudinal cohort of admixed children with Native American and European ancestry

iScience, 2023
Summary: Body-mass index (BMI) is a hallmark of adiposity. In contrast with adulthood, the genetic architecture of BMI during childhood is poorly understood.

Weight Loss During Topiramate Treatment in a Severely Obese Adolescent with Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia and Migraine

JCRPE, 2023
Youth with classical congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency exhibit an increased prevalence of obesity, early adiposity rebound, and increased abdominal adiposity compared to unaffected youth.
