lüll Pediatric obesity: etiology and treatment Crocker MK; Yanovski JAEndocrinol Metab Clin North Am 2009[Sep]; 38 (3): 525-48This article reviews factors that contribute to excessive weight gain in children and outlines current knowledge regarding approaches for treating pediatric obesity. Most of the known genetic causes of obesity primarily increase energy intake. Genes regulating the leptin signaling pathway are particularly important for human energy homeostasis. Obesity is a chronic disorder that requires long-term strategies for management. The foundation for all treatments for pediatric obesity remains restriction of energy intake with lifestyle modification. There are few long-term studies of pharmacotherapeutic interventions for pediatric obesity. Bariatric surgical approaches are the most efficacious treatment but, because of their potential risks, are reserved for those with the most significant complications of obesity.|Child[MESH]|Diagnosis, Differential[MESH]|Endocrine System Diseases/*complications/*therapy[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Obesity/*etiology/*therapy[MESH] |
