Excess Early Postnatal Weight Gain Leads to Increased Abdominal Fat in Young Children
Background. Increased childhood weight gain has been associated with later adiposity. Whether excess early postnatal weight gain plays a role in childhood abdominal fat is unknown. Design. In the ongoing Wheezing Illnesses Study Leidsche Rijn (WHISTLER), birth cohort weight and length from birth to age 3 months were obtained. In the first 316 five-year-olds, intra-abdominal and subcutaneous fat...
متن کاملEarly excess weight gain of children in the Pima Indian population.
OBJECTIVE To determine the period of childhood in which weight relative to height increases in Pima Indian children and young adults in comparison with the general US population.

متن کاملIncreased fat oxidation in prepubertal obese children: a metabolic defense against further weight gain?
The purpose of this study was to measure postabsorptive fat oxidation at rest and to assess the association between fat mass and fat oxidation rate in prepubertal children, who were assigned to two groups: 35 obese children (weight, 44.5 +/- 9.7 kg; fat mass; 31.7 +/- 5.4%) and 37 nonobese children (weight, 30.8 +/- 6.8 kg; fat mass, 17.5 +/- 6.7%). Postabsorptive fat oxidation expressed in abs...
متن کاملAssociations between postnatal weight gain, change in postnatal pulmonary function, formula feeding and early asthma.
BACKGROUND A study was undertaken to examine factors that might influence lung function during infancy and to test the hypothesis that change in weight during infancy is negatively associated with change in lung function. METHODS Weight, length and maximal flow at functional residual capacity (V'maxFRC) were measured at ages 1 and 12 months. V'maxFRC was adjusted for length. Asthma symptoms a...
متن کامل[High birth weight and early postnatal weight gain protect obese children and adolescents from truncal adiposity and insulin resistance].
Objective. Low birth weight (LBW), no early catch-up weight, and subsequent fat accumulation have been associated with increased risks of insulin resistance from childhood onward and later cardiovascular disease. We sought to clarify the effects of high birth weight (HBW) and postnatal weight gain on insulin resistance. Research Design and Methods. One hundred and seventeen obese children aged ...
