Definition
 BMI : Body Mass Index
 BMI= Weight (in Kg) / Height2
(in meters)
 Overweight : BMI > 85th
percentile for age and gender
 Obesity : BMI > 95th
percentile for age and gender
Normal 18.5 - 25
Overweight 25-30
Obese > 30
Is there an increase in Obesity prevalence?

Leptin deficiency
Leptin receptor deficiency is
a condition that causes
severe obesity beginning in
the first few months of life.
Affected individuals are of
normal weight at birth, but
they are constantly hungry
and quickly gain weight.
Melanocortin-4 receptor gene mutation
• The most frequent single-gene
cause of Obesity
• MC4 receptors are involved in
suppression of food intake by
α-melanocyte-stimulating
hormone
• Leads to massive obesity
• Present in 5% of persons with
severe obesity
Mutations in POMC
• Lack of central appetite
signaling and therefore
hyperphagia.
• Affected patients have red
hair and adrenal
insufficiency
Albright's hereditary osteodystrophy
 Short stature
 Obesity
 Round face
 Subcutaneous
ossifications
 Brachydactyly
Bardet-Biedl Syndrome
 Short stature
 Developmental delay
 Retinitis pigmentosum
 Polydactyly
Alström syndrome
• Blindness
• Vision loss
• Hearing loss
• Hyperinsulinemia
• Obesity
Prader-Willi Syndrome
• Deletion in the proximal arm
of chromosome 15
• Diminished fetal activity
• Obesity
• Hypotonia
• Mental retardation
• Short stature
Hypogonadotropic
hypogonadism
• Strabismus
• Small hands and feet
Becwith-Wiedemann syndrome
 An overgrowth disorder usually present
at birth, characterized by an increased
risk of childhood cancer and certain
congenital features.
 Macroglossia
 Macrosomia
 Microcephaly
 Midline abdominal wall defects
(omphalocele/exomphalos, umbilical hernia,
diastasis recti)
 Ear creases or ear pits
 Neonatal hypoglycemia
 Hepatoblastoma

Examples of problematic social trends
 Increase in use of motorized transport, e.g. to school.
 Fall in opportunities for recreational physical activity.
 Increased sedentary recreation.
 Multiple TV channels around the clock, smartphones.
 Greater quantities and variety of energy dense foods available.
 Rising levels of promotion and marketing of energy dense foods.
 Use of candies as a reward system
 Larger portions of food offering better ‘value’ for money.
 Rising use of soft drinks to replace water, e.g. in schools.
 Air conditionning?
Obesity in children and young people: a crisis in public health
T. Lobstein, et al. for the IASO International Obesity Task Force
Marketing
 Kellogg spent $22.2 million just on media advertising to
promote 139.8 million dollars' worth of sales in 2004
 McDonald's spent $528.8 million on marketing to support
$24.4 billion in sales.
 Budget for education about the risk hazards of obesity
“1 million dollars”
 Since 1994, U.S. companies have introduced about 600 new
children's food products; half of them have been candies or
chewing gums, and another fourth are other types of
sweets or salty snack

POSSIBLE ROLE OF ADDED SUGARS IN CHILD OBESITY
 The largest contributors of added sugars to American’s diets are
sugar-sweetened beverages (SSBs), and adolescents are the highest
consumers.
 Total energy consumed by Americans ages 2 years and older comes
from added sugars : - 13.1 % in 1977
- 19.7 – 22.3 % in 1999
- 5-10% (recommended)
Mechanisms are :
1. Increased caloric intake
2. Insulin resistance
3. High glycemic index, rebound hyperinsulinemia and hypoglycemia
US trends in per capita calories from beverages
among children

Maternal Obesity
Screen time
 A 2009 study on video game use found that the length of
game play time in a single sitting, frequency of video
game playing, and years of video game playing were
each correlated with less exercise and higher BMI
1. Decreased Energy Expenditure
2. Increased Consumption of Calories
3. Food advertising and product placement
4. Presence of TV in the bedroom

males: body mass, physical activity, and other media use. Eat Behav 2009; 10(3):161–7.

Probiotics
• Mice receiving Penicillin
during weaning gained total
mass and fat mass in adult
age
• Mice receiving penicillin-
altered microbiata from 18
week-old penicillin treated
mice to 3 week-old Germ Free
Mice gained fat mass at a
significantly faster rate
Altering the intestinal microbiota during a critical
developmental window has lasting metabolic consequences

BPA : a chemical found in baby bottle
linked to increased risk of obesity
 Analysing 61 studies investigating the link between BPA
exposure and weight and fat deposition, researchers from
Brunel University London, New York University and Vrije
University in Amsterdam discovered that exposure to BPA
during the development of mice and rats significantly
raised their risk of being overweight later in life.

Bisphenol A substitutes and obesity in US adults: analysis of a
population-based, cross-sectional study
Volume 1, Issue 3, June 2017, Pages e114-e122
Methods:
We included participants aged 20 years or older, who had available data on
concentrations of BPA, BPF, and BPS (n=1709), from a cross-sectional study,
the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2013–14
Findings:
1521 participants were included in the analysis.
Higher BPA, BPF, and BPS concentrations were observed in adults who
were obese than adults who were not obese.
After adjustment for demographic, socioeconomic, and lifestyle factors,
and urinary creatinine concentrations, BPA, but not BPF or BPS, was
significantly associated with obesity (The OR for general obesity was 1·78)
Take home message
1. BMI should be measured periodically in all children
2. Child obesity is reaching alarming rates
3. Obesity is a multifactorial disease
4. Genetic and endocrine causes represent only 5% of all
etiologies
