Early childhood growth trajectories in a Medicaid population
ConclusionsAmong Medicaid insured and uninsured children, several maternal and child characteristics were associated with early rapid-rise in BMIz. Clinical monitoring of early rapidly rising BMI may be important to address modifiable risk factors for obesity in families from low-income households. (Source: Pediatric Obesity)

Early ‐life determinants of excessive weight gain among low‐income children: Examining the adherence of theoretical frameworks to empirical data using structural equation modelling
ConclusionsIn this low-income population, women who were frequent users of UPF tended to introduce these products more frequently into their children's diets. The early trade-off trend in children's diet between breastfeeding and UPF was the leading cause of excessive weight gain. (Source: Pediatric Obesity)

Circulating miRNAs in girls with abdominal obesity: miR ‐221‐3p as a biomarker of response to weight loss interventions
ConclusionsBioinformatic analysis evidenced that miR-221-3p participates in several obesity-related pathways, and more interestingly, this miRNA targets several candidate genes to childhood obesity according to DisGeNet database. Thus, miR-221-3p could be used for predicting the response to a multidisciplinary intervention for weight loss in young girls. (Source: Pediatric Obesity)

Healthy lifestyles and physical fitness are associated with abdominal obesity among Latin ‐American and Spanish preschool children: A cross‐cultural study
ConclusionLifestyle had a significant association with AO among Spanish-speaking preschool children, with physical fitness especially being a relevant factor regardless of the country of origin. The findings of the current study may support the development of public guidelines focusing on healthy lifestyles in children to create effective plans that contribute to the early treatment of AO in preschool children.

High levels of FSH before puberty are associated with increased risk of metabolic syndrome during pubertal transition
ConclusionsHigher serum FSH levels in prepubertal children were associated with an increased risk of MetS development during pubertal transition. Along with nonlinear associations between varying serum FSH levels and IR markers, our results might imply a relationship between FSH and IR of puberty. (Source: Pediatric Obesity)

Novel clinical algorithm for hypothalamic obesity in youth with brain tumours and factors associated with excess weight gain
ConclusionPatients with hypothalamic tumours commonly develop obesity. Use of a clinical algorithm may expedite recognition of HO. Further research is needed to identify predictors of weight gain and to develop effective treatment. (Source: Pediatric Obesity)
