Assessment of Insulin Resistance and Body Composition in Children With Overweight and Obesity: A Pilot Study Using Bioimpedance and Principal Component Analysis

2025-08-13

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> /Objectives: Childhood obesity is associated with early metabolic complications, particularly insulin resistance (IR), which significantly elevates the long-term risk for type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Standard measures such as BMI may inadequately capture metabolic risk, particularly in children with atypical phenotypes such as TOFI (Thin Outside, Fat Inside). This study aimed t...
