Rate of Fat Gain Is Faster in Girls Undergoing Early Adiposity Rebound

Obesity Research, 2004
AbstractObjective: To determine the changes in body composition (fat and lean mass) occurring in children during adiposity rebound (AR).Research Methods and Procedures: Thirty‐nine girls, 3 to 6 years of age at baseline, underwent yearly DXA scans for 2 years. An additional DXA scan was obtained 4 to 5 years after baseline.

Early adiposity rebound: causes and consequences for obesity in children and adults

International Journal of Obesity, 2006
Childhood obesity is an important public health problem, with a rapidly increasing frequency worldwide. Identification of critical periods for the development of childhood and adolescent obesity could be very useful for targeting prevention measures. Weight status in early childhood is a poor predictor of adult adiposity status, and most obese adults ...

Early Adiposity Rebound Is Not Associated With Energy or Fat Intake in Infancy

Pediatrics, 2001
To the Editor. Obesity is recognized to be the result of a positive energy balance, mainly attributable to excessive energy intake accounted for by a high contribution of dietary fat. This was our original hypothesis when we started a longitudinal study conducted in French children followed from infancy to age 8 years.1 The aim of the study was to ...

Early adiposity rebound: review of papers linking this to subsequent obesity in children and adults

Current Opinion in Clinical Nutrition and Metabolic Care, 2005
Improving our understanding of factors driving fat gain in young children should increase our ability to manage the rising problem of obesity. Accordingly, studies associating timing of adiposity rebound with later obesity are reviewed.Investigations in many countries have confirmed that early adiposity rebound increases risk of high blood pressure and

Children with congenital hypothyroidism are at risk of adult obesity due to early adiposity rebound

Clinical Endocrinology, 2004
Summaryobjective  There is some evidence that children with congenital hypothyroidism (CH) are heavier than their reference population. There are few data on adults with CH. The timing of adiposity rebound (AR) in childhood has been shown to have strong correlations with adult obesity. Our aims were to study the timing of AR and factors affecting AR in

Comparison between type A and type B early adiposity rebound in predicting overweight and obesity in children: a longitudinal study

British Journal of Nutrition, 2020
AbstractEarly adiposity rebound (EAR) predicts paediatric overweight/obesity, but current approaches do not consider both the starting point of EAR and the BMI trajectory. We compared the clinical characteristics at birth, age 3–5 and 6–8 years of children, according to the EAR and to its type (type A/type B-EAR).

Factors associated with early adiposity rebound. ALSPAC Study Team.

Pediatrics, 2000
The age at which body mass index (BMI) increases after its nadir in childhood, adiposity rebound (AR), is a critical period for the development of obesity. Children with early AR are at substantially increased risk of adult obesity. Few studies have examined the factors that influence the timing of the AR.

Age at adiposity rebound and body mass index trajectory from early childhood to adolescence; differences by breastfeeding and maternal immigration background

Pediatric Obesity, 2016
SummaryObjectiveThis paper aims to assess association between breastfeeding and maternal immigration background and body mass index development trajectories from age 2 to 16 years.MethodsA cohort of children born in Stockholm during 1994 to 1996 was followed from age 2 to 16 years with repeated measurement of height and weight at eight time points (n =
