Acceleration of BMI in Early Childhood and Risk of Sustained Obesity
BACKGROUND: The dynamics of body-mass index (BMI) in children from birth to adolescence are unclear, and whether susceptibility for the development of sustained obesity occurs at a specific age in children is important to determine. METHODS: To assess the age at onset of obesity, we performed prospective and retrospective analyses of the course of BMI over time in a population-based sample of 51,505 children for whom sequential anthropometric dat…
Challenges in doing multi-disciplinary health promotion research in Germany
Health problems such as obesity are increasingly addressed by complex intervention programmes which operate at multiple levels of influence (e.g. families, schools, neighbourhoods) involving partners from various academic, professional and cultural backgrounds. Following a complex participatory health promotion approach is challenging, because conflicting interests as well as contextual constraints may occur which are rarely discussed empirically…
Growth prediction of small for gestational age infants within the first weeks after birth
postnatal week can be used to early identify SGA infants with high risk of growth failure within the following 5 years.
Further stabilization and even decrease in the prevalence rates of overweight and obesity in German children and adolescents from 2005 to 2015
Objective Recently several industrialized countries reported a stabilization or even a decrease in childhood overweight and obesity prevalence rates. In Germany, this trend started in 2004. The present study therefore aimed to evaluate whether this trend has continued or even leads in a clear direction. Design/Setting/Subjects BMI (>90th percentile (overweight), >97th percentile (obesity)) from the CrescNet database was analysed in 326 834 childr…
