    Area of Science:

    • Pediatric Endocrinology
    • Public Health

    Context:

    • Childhood obesity is a growing global health concern.
    • Understanding the early developmental factors of pediatric obesity is crucial for effective management.

    Purpose:

    • To investigate the onset and familial factors associated with obesity in a cohort of children aged 5-14 years.
    • To analyze the relationship between the age of obesity onset, birth weight, parental obesity, and family history of diseases.

    Summary:

    • A study of 214 obese children (ages 5-14) found that 51.87% experienced obesity onset within their first year of life.
    • A strong correlation exists between the severity of obesity and its early onset. Parental obesity was present in 88.3% of cases.
    • While birth weight did not correlate with obesity intensity, early onset significantly predicted severity. Familial history of diabetes mellitus and obesity were also noted.
