Positive correlation of cg16672562 methylation with obesity-related traits in childhood obesity, and its independence with underlying HIF3A (hypoxia-inducible factor 3a) genetic background.

Only registered users can translate articles

Differential methylations of the HIF3A (hypoxia-inducible factor 3a) gene have been linked to body mass index (BMI). To explore the association of these methylations to childhood obesity, we measured 5 CpG methylation sites (cg27146050, cg46801562, cg22891070, cg16672562 and cg46801675) in intron 1

HIF3A DNA Methylation Is Associated with Childhood Obesity and ALT.

Gene polymorphisms associated so far with body mass index (BMI) can explain only 1.18-1.45% of observed variation in BMI. Recent studies suggest that epigenetic modifications, especially DNA methylation, could contribute to explain part of the missing heritability, and two epigenetic genome-wide

Unique transcriptomic signature of omental adipose tissue in Ossabaw swine: a model of childhood obesity.

Only registered users can translate articles

To better understand the impact of childhood obesity on intra-abdominal adipose tissue phenotype, a complete transcriptomic analysis using deep RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq) was performed on omental adipose tissue (OMAT) obtained from lean and Western diet-induced obese juvenile Ossabaw swine. Obese

Autonomic and metabolic effects of OSA in childhood obesity.

Only registered users can translate articles

This study investigates the effects of exposure to intermittent hypoxia on cardiovascular autonomic control and metabolic function in obese children with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Each subject underwent: (1) a polysomnography; (2) morning fasting blood samples and a subsequent FSIVGTT; (3)

MACRONUTRIENT INTAKE IS CORRELATED WITH DYSLIPIDEMIA AND LOW-GRADE INFLAMMATION IN CHILDHOOD OBESITY BUT MOSTLY IN MALE OBESE.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE condition of hypoxia caused by hypertrophy of adipose cells in obesity triggers macrophages recruitment and production of cytokines. Additionally, high consumption of saturated fatty acids (SFA) and high glycemic index meals may contribute to oxidative stress and chronic low-grade

Pediatric sleep apnea: implications of the epidemic of childhood overweight.

Only registered users can translate articles

Over the last 30 years, the prevalence of overweight across all pediatric age groups and ethnicities has increased substantially, with the current prevalence of overweight among adolescents estimated to be approximately 30%. Current evidence suggests that overweight is modestly associated with

Sleep-disordered breathing in adolescents with obesity: When does it start to affect cardiometabolic health?

Only registered users can translate articles

Pediatric obesity and sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) are associated with cardiometabolic risk (CMR), but the degree of severity at which SDB affects cardiometabolic health is unknown. We assessed the relationship between the CMR and the apnea-hypopnea index (AHI), to identify a

Desaturation in procedural sedation for children with long bone fractures: Does weight status matter?

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Childhood obesity remains a serious problem in the United States. Significant associated adverse incidents have been reported with sedation of children with obesity, namely hypoxemia. The objective of our study was to determine if overweight and obesity were associated with increased

Sleep and breathing in patients with the Prader-Willi syndrome.

Only registered users can translate articles

The Prader-Willi syndrome is characterized by infantile hypotonia, early childhood obesity, mental deficiency, short stature, small hands and feet, and hypogonadism. Many patients also have hypersomnolence, experience daytime hypoventilation, and subsequently die prematurely of cardiorespiratory

Perioperative Adverse Respiratory Events in Overweight/Obese Children: Systematic Review.

Only registered users can translate articles

Childhood obesity is associated with numerous respiratory disorders, which may be aggravated when general anesthesia is administered. This systematic review aimed to investigate and synthesize the published literature on the associations between childhood obesity and perioperative adverse

Sleep-disordered breathing and systemic inflammation in overweight children and adolescents.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE To assess if the severity of sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) and mainly intermittent hypoxia is associated with increased peripheral leukocytes in overweight children and adolescents, controlling for adiposity and obesity-related metabolic abnormalities. METHODS Consecutive subjects were

Structural equation modeling of sleep apnea, inflammation, and metabolic dysfunction in children.

Only registered users can translate articles

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), often concomitant with obesity, increases the risk for the metabolic syndrome. One mechanism that may participate in this association is upregulation of inflammatory pathways. We used structural equation modeling to assess the interrelations between childhood obesity,

Factors Associated With Pneumonia Among Overweight and Obese Under-Five Children in an Urban Hospital of a Developing Country.

Only registered users can translate articles

To our knowledge, there are no data on the role of overweight and obesity in childhood pneumonia. We sought to determine that impact of overweight and obesity in such children. In this retrospective chart analysis, we enrolled hospitalized children aged 6 to 59 months in the Dhaka Hospital of the

Short- and long-range complications in offspring of diabetic mothers.

Only registered users can translate articles

The perinatal mortality rate of infants of diabetic mothers (IDMs) has declined dramatically from 250 per 1000 live births in the 1960s to a near-normal 20 per 1000 live births in the 1980s. Five to 8% of all IDMs suffer from major congenital malformations, and it is the latter that are responsible

Obesity and respiratory diseases in childhood.

Only registered users can translate articles

The prevalence of childhood obesity has more than tripled over the past five decades. Obesity results in low lung volumes, likely through increased loading of the chest wall and abdomen. The prevalence of asthma in children has paralleled the rise in obesity; obesity may increase the severity of
