Childhood obesity
Childhood obesity is defined as a BMI at or above the 95th percentile. Rates of childhood obesity have risen dramatically since the 1970s, with over 12 million children now considered obese. Potential causes include increased availability of unhealthy foods, large portion sizes, lack of physical activity, and excessive screen time. Consequences range from physical health issues to psychological effects. Prevention requires making healthy choices more available and accessible to children.
Childhood Obesity
The document discusses childhood obesity and the role of parents in preventing and treating it. It provides evidence from several studies that treating parents alone through education and lifestyle changes leads to better weight loss outcomes in children compared to only treating the children. Parents have significant influence over their child's diet, physical activity, and home environment. Therefore, new interventions should focus on empowering parents to create a healthy lifestyle for their families.

Diet,Obesity,Chronic Disease
Chronic diseases such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes and obesity are major global health problems. Nutrition plays an important role in both the prevention and management of chronic diseases. Unhealthy diets high in saturated fat, sugar and refined carbohydrates are contributing to increased rates of obesity and related conditions. Lifestyle interventions including healthier eating, physical activity and weight management can help delay or prevent chronic disease. Nutrition recommendations focus on increasing intake of fruits, vegetables and whole grains while limiting saturated fat, sugar and sodium.
Childhood Obesity
This document discusses childhood obesity, including its definition, causes, effects, treatments, and prevention. Some key points include: childhood obesity is defined as being above normal weight for one's age and height; its causes include unhealthy eating habits, lack of physical activity, and sedentary lifestyles involving excessive screen time; effects can include health issues like diabetes, sleep apnea, and social and psychological problems; treatments involve increasing physical activity, improving diet, and controlling portion sizes; prevention methods advocate healthy eating, limiting screen time, and getting daily exercise.
Assessment of nutritional status
The nutritional status of an individual is determined by a complex interaction between internal constitutional factors like age, sex, nutrition, and diseases, and external environmental factors like food safety, and socioeconomic circumstances. Nutritional status can be optimal, undernourished, overnourished, or malnourished. Nutritional assessment methods include anthropometric measurements like height, weight, and BMI; clinical examination; dietary evaluation; and biochemical tests to identify individuals at risk of malnutrition and evaluate nutritional programs.

Childhood obesity, a very complex health issue that becomes a growing problem in the U.S. In fact, “over the past three decades, childhood obesity rates have tripled in the U.S., and today, the country has some of the highest obesity rates in the world: one out of six children is obese, and one out of three children is overweight or obese.” (Child obesity, n.d.). Physical diseases and conditions are often accompanying obesity. Also, obesity may have an adverse effect on various systems in a child’s body, such as heart, lungs, muscles and bones, kidneys, digestive tract, and hormones that control blood sugar and puberty. Furthermore, it can take a toll on social life because obese kids and teenagers are more likely to have low self-esteem. “Childhood obesity is one of the most serious threats to the health of our nation.” (Building evidence to prevent childhood obesity, n.d.). Children and youth who are obese and overweight will likely remain overweight or obese into adulthood.

The Effects of Sugar- Amy
Sugar is a disaccharide composed of fructose and glucose that can be broken down into simpler carbohydrates. Excessive sugar consumption has been linked to several negative health effects like tooth decay, insulin resistance, high blood pressure, obesity, and diabetes. Dopamine is a neurotransmitter that stimulates pleasure centers in the brain, and both sugar and drugs cause large dopamine releases, making addiction more likely. Reducing added sugar intake, especially from sugar-sweetened beverages, can help lower the risk of heart disease and obesity.

Obesity and children
This document discusses childhood obesity, its causes, health effects, and prevention. It notes that a lack of physical exercise and unhealthy food choices can lead a initially mildly obese child to become severely obese by age 18. The main causes discussed are increased screen time reducing activity, unhealthy family eating habits, marketing of fast food to children, and unsafe neighborhoods discouraging outdoor play. Health effects of childhood obesity include physical issues like diabetes and cancer, as well as emotional impacts like low self-esteem and depression. The document recommends preventing childhood obesity through proper diet, exercise, community support, and legal measures.
Failure to thrive
Failure to thrive is a syndrome characterized by unintentional weight loss, decreased appetite, and functional decline. It is caused by a complex interaction of medical, physical, psychological, social, and nutritional factors. Evaluation involves assessing for underlying diseases, nutritional status, functional and cognitive abilities, and depression. Treatment focuses on addressing reversible causes, improving nutrition, managing depression, and increasing physical activity and strength through a multidisciplinary approach.
Childhood obesity
This document discusses obesity in children. It notes that obesity is reaching epidemic proportions globally, including in developing countries. In India, studies have shown increasing rates of overweight and obesity in children, particularly in urban and affluent populations. Childhood obesity can lead to health issues not only during childhood but also in adulthood. The causes of childhood obesity are often exogenous or environmental factors like diet, sedentary lifestyle, and genetics. Treatment involves dietary changes, increased physical activity, behavior modification, and treatment of any related health complications. A multidisciplinary approach with family involvement tends to have the best outcomes.
Management of childhood obesity through nutrition intervention
This document summarizes a case study of an 11-year-old girl seeking treatment for childhood obesity. It provides background on childhood obesity rates and risk factors. An initial assessment found the girl to be in the 99th percentile for BMI and at risk for comorbidities. After two follow-up appointments spanning 4 months, she lost 12 pounds through dietary changes like reducing juice and snacking, and increased physical activity goals. Her nutrition diagnosis addressed high sugar intake and sedentary lifestyle contributing to obesity.
ASSESSMENT OF NUTRITIONAL STATUS BASED ON VITAL STATISTICS
This presentation discusses how vital statistics can be used to assess nutritional status. Vital statistics are defined as data on births, deaths, illnesses and rates calculated from this data. Mortality rates like infant mortality rate and maternal mortality rate are indirect indicators of community nutritional status. Morbidity rates like incidence and prevalence rates can also provide information. Data is typically collected from vital registration systems, censuses, surveys and hospital records. Advantages are that vital statistics require few resources while disadvantages include potential inaccuracies in data collection and reporting of causes of death.
Obesity Presentation
The document discusses obesity in children and adolescents. It states that 1 in 5 children are overweight or obese, and the number of obese children has more than tripled since 1985. About 80% of obese adolescents will become obese adults. Changing societal factors like increased availability of unhealthy foods, larger portions, and decreased physical activity are contributing to rising obesity rates in children. Obesity can lead to health issues like type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and liver problems. Maintaining a healthy diet and being physically active are important to prevent obesity and promote overall wellness.
Causes of obesity
This document discusses the causes of obesity and ways to prevent it. The 10 main causes of obesity are: lack of energy balance, lack of physical activity, unhealthy lifestyle environment, oversized food portions, lack of healthy diet, genes and family history, children adopting parents' habits, certain medicines, emotional eating, and pregnancy. Recommendations for preventing obesity include parents being role models of healthy eating and exercise, keeping healthy foods stocked at home, consuming fruits and vegetables daily, choosing whole grains, balancing diet and monitoring weight, avoiding energy-dense foods, and getting 30 minutes of moderate exercise per day.

- Over 45 million Indian children under 5 are estimated to be obese, with prevalence rates up to 17% for children aged 5-17.
- Studies show obesity rates are highest among affluent, private school children in urban areas like Delhi, Chennai, and Pune.
- Factors contributing to obesity include unhealthy dietary habits, excessive sugar/calorie intake, physical inactivity, more screen time, and misguided parental beliefs about child nutrition.
- Childhood obesity can lead to lifelong health issues like diabetes and heart disease if not addressed. A multi-pronged approach is needed involving families, schools, and communities
Childhood Obesity Presentation
The document discusses the childhood obesity epidemic in the United States. It notes that over the past 30 years, childhood obesity rates have doubled and tripled, with over 1/3 of children and adolescents being overweight or obese as of 2010. The primary cause identified is parents, as children typically share their parents' eating habits and foods consumed. To solve the epidemic, the document argues that parents must change their own dietary habits and receive better education on proper nutrition, as they directly influence their children's health.

Women's Health
Women and men have many of the same health problems, but they can affect women differently.Some diseases or conditions are more common in women, such as osteoarthritis, obesity and depression. And some conditions, such as menopause and pregnancy, are unique to women.
Women sometimes neglect their own health and focus instead on their partner's and their children's.
Take care of yourself first:
-- Plan for pregnancies and see your healthcare provider regularly while you are pregnant
-- Have regular mammograms
-- Get regular checkups and screenings. Early detection is important for treating breast, cervical, uterine and ovarian cancer.

Child Malnutrition in the Developing World
Child malnutrition is a major problem in developing countries, where over 1/3 of children under 5 are underweight. Poverty is the primary cause, limiting access to adequate food while lack of food security, maternal education and health, and poor environmental conditions are secondary factors. Malnourished children experience stunted growth and increased risk of diseases. While some children lack adequate nutrition, obesity is increasingly common in developed nations, raising issues of global equality and justice in access to food.

Running head: OBESITY IN MIDWESTERN CHILDREN
Obesity in Midwestern Adolescents

Obesity in Midwestern Adolescents
It is no secret that obesity in America is at an alarming level and although we see its prevalence in adults, we often fail to discuss its rising rates within adolescents. Children are now facing the possibility of higher mortality rates, when in reality, children should be living longer than their parents. With obesity striking Midwestern communities, this paper aims to focus on understanding why children in these communities are at a higher risk and what actions are needed to help them overcome this harmful life style. This is incredibly important in order to restore and maintain health. Children who are obese have a higher comorbidity for chronic diseases that typically only affect adults such as, type II diabetes mellitus, hypertension, hyperlipidemia as well as psychological disorders. This stresses the importance that adolescents should be happy and healthy, not a statistic.
Target Population: Midwestern Adolescents
To be considered as this paper’s target population an individual must meet two criteria: the person must reside in the American Midwest and be an adolescent. The State of Obesity (2016-17) ranks all fifty states against one another in obesity. Although the rankings are not confined to adolescents, it highlights where midwestern states stand in relation to the rest of the United States. The lower the number next to the state, higher portion of the population is obese : 6. Ohio (18.6%), 10. Iowa (17.7%), 11. Indiana (17.5%), 12. Michigan (17.3%), 17. Illinois (16.2%), 23. Nebraska (15.5%), 31. Wisconsin (14.3%), 34. South Dakota (13.6%), 38. Kansas (13.0%), 40. Missouri (12.7%), 42. North Dakota (12.5%) and 48. Minnesota (10.4%).These statistics provide an overview of midwestern obesity, let us now turn to risk factors contributing to adolescent specific obesity. The goal of Healthy People 2020 is to increase life expectancy and quality of life. According to their website, 1 in 6 children and adolescents are obese. That number is concerning because many adolescents do not understand the consequences of their actions and how it can be detrimental later on in their adult years. Healthy People 2020 initiatives are aimed in helping adolescents in 1. achieving and maintaining a healthy weight, 2. Reduce the risk of heart disease and stroke, 3. Reduce the risk of certain forms of cancer, 4. Strengthen muscles, bones and joints and 5. Improve mood and energy level (Healthy People 2020, n.d.).According to Stanford Children’s Health (n.d.),one of the biggest contributors to adolescent obesity is excessive food intake which results in a surplus of caloric intake. A diet that is high in sugar and fat, as well as processed, will result in weight gain. As busy parents tend to their kids and their extracurriculars, eating on the go often results in poor food and bev.

ABDOMINAL TRAUMA in pediatrics part one.
Abdominal trauma in pediatrics refers to injuries or damage to the abdominal organs in children. It can occur due to various causes such as falls, motor vehicle accidents, sports-related injuries, and physical abuse. Children are more vulnerable to abdominal trauma due to their unique anatomical and physiological characteristics. Signs and symptoms include abdominal pain, tenderness, distension, vomiting, and signs of shock. Diagnosis involves physical examination, imaging studies, and laboratory tests. Management depends on the severity and may involve conservative treatment or surgical intervention. Prevention is crucial in reducing the incidence of abdominal trauma in children.

Overall life span (LS) was 1671.7±1721.6 days and cumulative 5YS reached 62.4%, 10 years – 50.4%, 20 years – 44.6%. 94 LCP lived more than 5 years without cancer (LS=2958.6±1723.6 days), 22 – more than 10 years (LS=5571±1841.8 days). 67 LCP died because of LC (LS=471.9±344 days). AT significantly improved 5YS (68% vs. 53.7%) (P=0.028 by log-rank test). Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: N0-N12, T3-4, blood cell circuit, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells-CC and blood cells subpopulations), LC cell dynamics, recalcification time, heparin tolerance, prothrombin index, protein, AT, procedure type (P=0.000-0.031). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and N0-12 (rank=1), thrombocytes/CC (rank=2), segmented neutrophils/CC (3), eosinophils/CC (4), erythrocytes/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), stick neutrophils/CC (8), leucocytes/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (error=0.000; area under ROC curve=1.0).

Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune Disease
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.
