normal 0 false false false en-us x-none ar-sa background: obesity in accordance with metabolic syndrome (mets) confronts populations at the higher risk of morbidity and mortality of chronic diseases including, chronic kidney diseases (ckd). the renal complication of obesity and mets has been less debated in young adolescents. the objective of this study was to assess the kidney function in obes...

conclusions: prevalence of fatty liver is high in our obese children. it was associated with criteria of metabolic syndrome and insulin resistance, so visceral fat may participate in the pathogenesis of the metabolic syndrome or merely serve as a marker of increased risk for the metabolic complications of obesity. patients and methods: 102 obese iranian children, referred to pediatric clinics f...

Introduction: Transient hyperglycemia is a condition that happens during acute physiologic stress in children.  The aim of this study is to determine if there is any relation between stress hyperglycemia and diabetes mellitus and metabolic syndrome in pediatric patients.   Materials and Methods:  The study was performed on children hospitalized in Amirkola pediatric hospital, North of Iran, bet...

background: metabolic syndrome (ms) is an important risk factor that is associated with vitamin d deficiency, according to recent studies. this study aimed to evaluate the relationship between serum 25-hydroxyvitamin d level and risk of metabolic syndrome in children in birjand. materials and methods: a case-control study on 6 to 18 years old metabolic syndrome patients, this investigation was ...

conclusions adherence to the meddiet, according to mds and sofi-mds, may not predict mets components and mets incidence after 3 years of follow-up in iranian adult populations. results after adjusting for potential confounders, neither higher mds nor higher sofi-mds were significantly associated with the mean values of mets components and the risk of metabolic abnormalities incidence after 3 ye...

Pediatric overweight and obesity is an emerging public health priority as rates have rapidly increased worldwide. Obesity is often clustered with other metabolic abnormalities including hypertension, dyslipidemia, and insulin resistance, leading to increased risk of cardiovascular disease. This cluster of risk factors, termed the metabolic syndrome, has traditionally been reported in adults. Ho...

This study was done to evaluate the efficacy of health check-ups in children in detecting metabolic syndrome and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) by comparing the pediatric health promotion center with the pediatric obesity clinic. Children who visited a pediatric health promotion center (n=218) or a pediatric obesity clinic (n=178) were included. Anthropometric data, blood pressure, l...

BACKGROUND Factor analyses suggest that the structure underlying metabolic syndrome is similar in adolescents and adults. However, adolescence is a period of intense physiological change, and therefore stability of the underlying metabolic structure and clinical categorization based on metabolic risk is uncertain. METHODS AND RESULTS We analyzed data from 1098 participants in the Princeton Sc...
