Sex-specific association between elective cesarean section and growth trajectories in preschool children: A prospective birth cohort study

Frontiers in Public Health, 2022
BackgroundElective cesarean section (ECS) primarily contributes to the rising cesarean section (CS) rate, and much attention has been attracted to its health consequences.

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 ...

Patterns of Growth Associated With the Timing of Adiposity Rebound [PDF]

Obesity, 2009
This study was undertaken to evaluate the effects of age of adiposity rebound (AR) on measures of fat mass between ages 7 and 11 years, maturity, and adiposity in 458 children from a birth cohort studied to age 26 years. Patterns of growth between ages 3 and 26 years and changes in fat mass index between 7 and 11 years in groups with early (<5.5 ...

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.

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.

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.
