- 1From: International Journal of Obesity. (Vol. 36, Issue 4) Peer-ReviewedOBJECTIVE: To evaluate the influence of breast-feeding on the body mass index (BMI) growth trajectory from birth through 13 years of age among offspring of diabetic pregnancies (ODP) and offspring of non-diabetic...
- 2From: International Journal of Obesity. (Vol. 36, Issue 4) Peer-ReviewedOBJECTIVE: To examine the maternal and neonatal factors associated with offspring adiposity and the role of birth and placental weight as potential mediators in such associations. DESIGN: The Tasmanian Infant Health...
- 3From: International Journal of Obesity. (Vol. 36, Issue 4) Peer-ReviewedObjective: Although it has been hypothesized that the depression-obesity relation is bidirectional, few studies have addressed this hypothesis in a prospective setting. We aimed to examine the bidirectional relationship...
- 4From: International Journal of Obesity. (Vol. 36, Issue 4) Peer-ReviewedOBJECTIVE: Studies in school-age children have consistently shown a positive association between maternal paid work hours and child obesity. However, there is conflicting evidence about the impact of maternal work hours...
- 5From: International Journal of Obesity. (Vol. 36, Issue 4) Peer-ReviewedOBJECTIVE: To examine the relationship between maternal smoking during pregnancy and the body composition of offspring. SUBJECTS: Grade 4 elementary school children (n = 1366; boys/girls, 724/642; 9-10 years old)...
- 6From: International Journal of Obesity. (Vol. 36, Issue 4) Peer-ReviewedObjectives: To determine the effectiveness of a structured multidisciplinary non-surgical obesity therapy program on the basis of a temporary low-calorie-diet for 12 weeks, and additional intervention modules to enhance...
- 7From: International Journal of Obesity. (Vol. 36, Issue 4) Peer-ReviewedINTRODUCTION: Higher protein intake during the first year of life is associated with increased weight gain velocity and body mass index (BMI). However, the relationship of protein intake and weight gain velocity with...
- 8From: International Journal of Obesity. (Vol. 36, Issue 4) Peer-ReviewedHYPOTHESIS: Obesity influences metabolism and increases the incidence of clinical complications and worsens outcomes in pediatric burn patients. DESIGN: Retrospective, single-center study. SUBJECTS: In all, 592...
- 9From: International Journal of Obesity. (Vol. 36, Issue 4) Peer-ReviewedOBJECTIVE: To estimate differences in skeletal maturity and stature from birth to age 18 years between individuals who are overweight vs normal weight in young adulthood. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Weight, length and...
- 10From: International Journal of Obesity. (Vol. 36, Issue 4) Peer-ReviewedAdipose tissue lipolysis is the catabolic process whereby stored triacylglycerol (TAG) is broken down by lipases into fatty acids and glycerol. Here, we review recent insights from transgenic mouse models. Genetic...
- 11From: International Journal of Obesity. (Vol. 36, Issue 4) Peer-ReviewedBACKGROUND: School entry marks a tremendous change in the children's life style, which might well be relevant for the emergence of overweight. Previous studies suggested a dramatic increase in the prevalence of...
- 12From: International Journal of Obesity. (Vol. 36, Issue 4) Peer-ReviewedOBJECTIVE: Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified some common variants associated with obesity risk in European descents. However, their influences on obesity-related indices for the Chinese children at...
- 13From: International Journal of Obesity. (Vol. 36, Issue 4) Peer-ReviewedBACKGROUND: Psychological comorbidities of obesity are well recognised. However, the role of childhood psychological problems in the aetiology of later obesity has been little studied. DESIGN: Secondary analyses of a...

- 17From: International Journal of Obesity. (Vol. 36, Issue 4) Peer-ReviewedThe increasing prevalence of pediatric obesity around the world has become an area of scientific interest because of public health concern. Although since early stages of the lifespan body weight might be heavily...
- 18From: International Journal of Obesity. (Vol. 36, Issue 4) Peer-ReviewedOBJECTIVE: School absenteeism may be an underlying cause of poor school performance among overweight and obese children. We examined the associations between school absenteeism and body mass index (BMI) in a nationally...
