Childhood Obesity Risk Assessment Longitudinal Study
Longitudinal Study To Determine The Risk Factors Associated With Childhood Obesity
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 30 May 2024
Brief summary (registry, in English)
Childhood obesity is a major public health problem worldwide. Europe has a high prevalence of obesity, which is accentuated in Mediterranean countries. Spain has a high prevalence of both overweight (percentage: 21.5 in boys and 22.2 in girls) and obesity (percentage: 10.6 in boys and 11.8 in girls) in children aged 6-9 years. From childhood, obesity is associated with an increased risk of diseases such as insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes, hypertension, metabolic syndrome, musculoskeletal problems, sleep disorders and mental health problems. Obesity is a complex, multi-causal problem involving individual risk factors such as behavior and genetics. Behavioral factors include diet, physical activity, sedentary lifestyle, sleep, and others. It is therefore important to study each of the individual risk factors for obesity. There are few large sample studies in European/Spanish children and no longitudinal studies estimating the incidence of obesity in preschool children based on exposure to different risk factors, considering not only the effect of food consumption but also dietary habits and patterns. The aim of the present study is to identify risk factors for childhood obesity through long-term longitudinal follow-up.
