Summary 

Obesity in children has increased in recent decades. Causes are multi-factorial including biological, genetic disposition, behavioural and environmental influences. 

Calculating body mass index (BMI) is the most widely accepted method of screening for obesity in children. Abnormal BMI cut-offs in children are determined by age and sex-specific percentiles. 

Impaired glucose tolerance and type 2 diabetes mellitus are prevalent in children with obesity. 

Preventing excessive weight gain in children is of paramount importance in confronting the obesity epidemic, as obesity is difficult to treat at all ages, and children with obesity tend to become obese adults. 

The cornerstone of treatment is lifestyle modification including dietary modification and physical activity. Pharmacotherapy and metabolic/bariatric surgery may be considered as an adjunct to lifestyle modification in youth with severe obesity. 

Definition 

Obesity is a condition of excessive body fat or adiposity that exceeds healthy limits. 

The most widely accepted method to screen for excess adiposity is calculation of body mass index (BMI).[1] In the US, abnormal BMI cut-offs in children are determined by age and sex-specific percentiles based on growth charts, as the amount of body fat changes with age and differs between boys and girls. [2] 

An age and sex-adjusted BMI between the 85th and 94th percentiles is defined as overweight, and a BMI ≥95th percentile (or 2 to 30 kg/m², which ever is lower) is defined as obesity.[3][4] Severe obesity is defined as BMI of 120% of the 95th percentile.[5] [6] For children aged <2 years, BMI normative values are not available. Weight-for-height values above the 95th percentile in this age group can be categorised as overweight.[7] 

The World Health Organization 2006 growth standard is recommended in many countries for children aged 0-5 years, and for children aged 0-2 years in the US. [WHO: Child growth standards.] (https://www.who.int/ tools/child-growth-standards/standards)
