Effectiveness of Smartphone App for the Treatment of Pediatric Obesity: A Randomized Controlled Trial
Our findings suggest that the mobile app might help in the clinical management of children and adolescents with obesity in terms of dropout reduction
Effect of Obesity on the Respiratory Parameters in Children with Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome
There was no strong correlation between obesity and OSAS, but a positive association was found between BMI and AHI severity
Is Metabolic Syndrome Useful for Identifying Youths with Obesity at Risk for NAFLD
The definition of metabolic syndrome (MetS) in childhood is controversial. Recently, a modified version of the International Diabetes Federation (IDF) definition was proposed using reference data from an international population for high waist circumference (WC) and blood pressure (BP), while the fixed cutoffs for lipids and glucose were not changed. We analyzed MetS prevalence using this modified definition (MetS-IDF m ) and its association with…
Behavioral and Sleep Disorders in Children and Adolescents following Covid-19 Disease: A Case-Control Study
COVID-19 has impacted children's and adolescents' mental health. Adolescents were the most affected patient group for internalizing problems, including anxiety and depression
Pediatric Sleep Questionnaire Predicts Moderate-to-Severe Obstructive Sleep Apnea in Children and Adolescents with Obesity
Pediatric obesity is associated with an increased risk of morbidity during childhood. Alongside the well-known metabolic syndrome, during the last decades scientific research has deeply investigated the risk of sleep breathing disorders. Among them, obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) commonly affects children with obesity. The presence of OSA heightens the risk of metabolic impairment and weight gain. Therefore, it deserves specific treatment. However…
Effect of Covid-19 Lockdown on Children’s Eating Behaviours: A Longitudinal Study
The COVID-19 pandemic has had a huge impact on children's lifestyle and eating behaviour, resulting in an increase of obesity prevalence. The CEBQ (Children's Eating Behaviour Questionnaire) is a validate questionnaire that investigates children's eating behaviour. Knowing the psychological consequences of daily routine disruption during lockdown, we evaluated the changes in eating behaviours in a paediatric cohort before and during the lockdown …
MAFLD in Obese Children: A Challenging Definition
MAFLD criteria in obese children seem to be less accurate in identifying patients having an intrinsic higher cardiometabolic risk. This suggests the need for a more accurate definition in the context of pediatric obesity
Cross-Sectional Survey on Long Term Sequelae of Pediatric Covid-19 among Italian Pediatricians
The persistence of symptoms after recovery from Coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) is defined as long COVID, an entity that had occurred among adults but which is not yet well characterized in pediatric ages. The purpose of this work was to present some of the data from a survey addressed to Italian pediatricians concerning the impact of long-COVID among children who recovered from severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection. …
Association between Hepatic Steatosis and Obstructive Sleep Apnea in Children and Adolescents with Obesity
Hepatic steatosis seems to drive the association between OSA and ALT levels, suggesting a potential pathogenic role of OSA in NAFLD
