Early indicators of child obesity to aid future clinical trials for lifecycle obesity prevention

2026-05-18

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> 39M children worldwide are overweight or have obesity, accelerating risk for adult non-communicable diseases. Presently, interventions to prevent obesity have had limited success due to poor timing and lack of personalisation. <h4>Objective</h4> We aimed to identify early-life predictors of childhood obesity (ChOB) that could aid targeting specific population subsets for obesity prevention in...
