Bariatric and metabolic surgery medical tourism
BOX The rising prevalence of obesity coupled with globalisation of healthcare has resulted in an increasing number of people travelling to access bariatric and metabolic surgery
The psychological burden of Covid-19 on the desire for parenthood in minoritized sexual identities
The findings underline the unmet need for social, psychological and medical support in regard to family-planning and the desire for parenthood during a pandemic. Furthermore, future research should explore COVID-19-related psychological consequences on individuals' desire for parenthood and building a family
A qualitative study exploring the perceptions of health among pre‐teen girls from disadvantaged communities in Dublin
There are disparities in health outcomes between youth from higher and lower socioeconomic backgrounds, and girls are especially vulnerable to changes in health‐related behaviours as they develop. Therefore, this study explored how girls from disadvantaged communities in Dublin, Ireland, make sense of ‘being healthy.’ A phenomenological qualitative design was implemented. Three focus groups were conducted ( n = 22, 10–12 years) and data were anal…
Designing, Implementing, and Evaluating a Home-Based, Multidisciplinary, Family-Centered Pediatric Obesity Intervention
Although family-based interventions have been suggested as promising approaches for preventing and treating pediatric obesity, available studies failed to include the whole family in its own natural environment and routine. This paper aims to detail the development, implementation, and evaluation phases of the ProxOb home-based, family-centered program and present its feasibility and early results. ProxOb provides families with a 6-month multidis…
Establishing consensus on key public health indicators for the monitoring and evaluating childhood obesity interventions
Forty-five potential indicators were identified, pertaining primarily to the dietary environment, built environment and health inequalities. These results have important implications more widely for evaluating interventions aimed at childhood obesity reduction and prevention
Standing balance and health-related quality of life in children who are obese
Exploring the prevalence of musculoskeletal impairments in children and adolescents attending an obesity management service
Weight-Bearing vs. Non-Weight-Bearing exercises performed at different intensities. Effects on obese adolescents' perceived exertion
Comparison of total body and abdominal adiposity indexes to dual x‐ray absorptiometry scan in obese adolescents
The BAI initially developed in adults presented a better but still weak association with DXA-%FM when compared with the BAIw and BAIp. The three indices thus do not provide better estimate of obese adolescents' adiposity than the widely used Body Mass Index
Are balance and quality of life impaired in children who are obese
Poster Abstracts
average, this represents 1?6 l of water intake per day for females and 2 l of water intake per day for males. French national dietary survey (INCA 2) included more than 4000 people aged 3-79 years between 2006 and 2007. Volunteers declared all their food and fluid intake during a 7-d period
Serum neopterin and tryptophan concentrations in obese children
average, this represents 1?6 l of water intake per day for females and 2 l of water intake per day for males. French national dietary survey (INCA 2) included more than 4000 people aged 3-79 years between 2006 and 2007. Volunteers declared all their food and fluid intake during a 7-d period
