Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Body composition heterogeneity in childhood obesity is not fully captured by BMI, motivating operational phenotyping using non-invasive measures. AIM: To identify body composition-based phenotypes of obesity in children aged 6-18 years using complementary clustering approaches and characterise their discriminative structure through interpretable machine learning. SUBJECTS AND METHODS: We enrolled 78...
