“…Of the previous 3 prospective studies that did not fully adjust for the MS components, in the one on a Mexican population sample, with MS being defined in the absence of abdominal obesity, CRP was found to be a predictor in women but not in men [8]; and the reverse, namely, prediction of MS by rising CRP tertiles, was detected in men but not in women [13]. The risk of MS was several-fold higher with elevated CRP concentrations in the Finnish study that was confined to men [9].…”

“…Positive relationships between the risk of developing hypertension and elevated CRP levels were reported recently in men [11] and women [12]. Prospective studies linking inflammation with MS have also been few [8,9,13], especially among women; and a recent study using a mendelian randomization approach suggested that CRP is causally not related to MS in British women [14].…”

“…Lower levels of HDL-C have been identified in youth with severe obesity from population-based NHANES data at younger ages prior to identifiable differences in other lipid parameters. 5 Elevated levels of CRP, considered a marker of inflammation that has been associated with obesity in adults, 21 and is thought to herald the onset of cardiometabolic consequences, such as coronary heart disease, 22 hypertension, 23,24 metabolic syndrome 25,26 and diabetes 27 was significantly higher in the youth with severe obesity compared to those without severe obesity. While such levels have been previously identified in adults, a similar association has not been well defined in children.…”

Background: Psychological and behavioral correlates are considered important in the development and persistence of obesity in both adults and youth. This study aimed to identify such features in youth with severe obesity (BMI ³ 120% of 95 th percentile of sex-specific BMI-for-age) compared to those with overweight or non-severe obesity.Methods: Youth with BMI ³ 85 th percentile were invited to participate in a prospective research registry where data was collected on attributes such as family characteristics, eating behaviors, dietary intake, physical activity, perception of health and mental well-being, and cardiometabolic parameters. Results:In a racially/ethnically diverse cohort of 105 youth (65% female, median age 16.1 years, range 4.62-25.5), 51% had severe obesity. The body fat percent increased with the higher levels of obesity. There were no differences in the self-reported frequency of intake of sugar sweetened beverages or fresh produce across the weight categories. However, the participants with severe obesity reported higher levels of emotional eating and eating when bored (p=0.022), levels of stress (p =0.013), engaged in fewer sports or organized activities (p=0.044), and had suboptimal perception of health (p=0.053). Asthma, depression and obstructive sleep apnea were more frequently reported in youth with severe obesity. The presence of abnormal HDL, HOMA-IR, CRP and multiple cardiometabolic risk factors were more common among youth with severe obesity. Conclusions:Youth with severe obesity have identifiable differences in psychosocial and behavioral attributes that can be used to develop targeted intervention strategies to improve their health.
