Childhood obesity is associated with progressive vascular dysfunction as manifest by arterial stiffness and elevated blood pressure with associated subsequent morbidity and mortality because of early cardiovascular events including myocardial infarction and stroke in adulthood.
Rates of overweight and obesity in both adults and children have risen sharply during the past 20 years. The reasons for this escalation in obesity are not fully determined, however, sedentary lifestyle and dietary changes in combination with genetic predisposition are probably involved. Clinical
Obesity during childhood can lead to increased risk of adverse cardiometabolic diseases such as type 2 diabetes and coronary artery disease during adult life.

Nowadays, because of the huge economic burden on society causing by obesity and diabetes, they turn into the most serious public health challenges in the world.

The reason is, among others, that diabetes mellitus is an
Obesity is increasingly more common in postindustrial societies, and the burden of childhood obesity is increasing. The major effects of obesity on cardiovascular (CV) health are mediated through the risk of metabolic syndrome (insulin-resistance, dyslipidemia, and hypertension), such that an
