“…Whilst there may be some decrease in the exact magnitude of this inequality, with the gap between the most and least wealthy families having slightly decreased over time, there still exists a substantial difference between the sociodemographic subgroups that remains to be addressed. The exact factors which govern this inequality are numerous and likely interact with one another in a complex manner, including pressing public health challenges such as access to care, nutritional status, and oral health education, amongst others 1, 17,18 .…”

Objective: The aim of this study was to provide statistics on the trends and changes in the distribution of dental caries in the United States (US) pediatric population for the 10-year period 2011 through 2020. Study design: Using data from the 2011 to 2020 National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys, estimates were derived for the prevalence of decayed and filled teeth in the US population aged between 2 to 11 years. Analyses were stratified by primary and permanent dentition, and prevalence was assessed amongst the various sociodemographic and body mass index (BMI) subgroups. Results: Over the 10-year period, the following changes were observed: the prevalence of decayed primary teeth has decreased from 14.1% to 12.2%, the prevalence of filled primary teeth has decreased from 29.8% to 26.1%, the prevalence of decayed permanent teeth has decreased from 5.2% to 2.7%, and the prevalence of filled permanent teeth has decreased from 16.1% to 12.3%. Despite these decreases in prevalence, there remains substantial inequality in how the disease is distributed, with those from ethnic minorities, poorer households, and with a non-normal BMI carrying the majority of disease burden. Conclusions: The prevalence of dental caries has decreased over the past 10 years, but there is still inequality in disease distribution.

“…Data from adults suggest a major role of the dietary GI and GL both in weight maintenance [ 45 ] and the prevention [ 7 ] and treatment of T2D [ 46 ]. A potential relevance of the dietary GI and GL for health in childhood and adolescence is underpinned by the fact that high GI foods make a major contribution to the diet of children and adolescents [ 47 , 48 ] and that their relevance increases with age [ 49 ]. Children and adolescents from Asian populations may generally be at higher risk of higher dietary GI values: mean dietary GI in Japanese were GI = 63 at ages 1–6 and GI = 67 at ages 15–19 [ 47 ], i.e., notably above values observed in European and Australian paediatric populations [ 49 , 50 ].…”

To summarize current knowledge and gaps regarding the role of postprandial glycaemic response in the paediatric population, a workshop was organized in June 2021 by the European branch of the International Life Science Institute (ILSI). This virtual event comprised of talks given by experts followed by in-depth discussions in breakout sessions with workshop participants. The main pre-specified topics addressed by the workshop organizing committee to the invited speakers and the workshop participants were: (1) the role of glycaemic responses for paediatric health, based on mechanistic insights from animal and human data, and long-term evidence from observational and intervention studies in paediatric populations, and (2) changes in metabolism and changes in dietary needs from infancy to adolescence. Each talk as well as the discussions were summarised, including the main identified research gaps. The workshop led to the consensus on the crucial role on health of postprandial glycaemic response in paediatric population. However, a lack of scientific data has been identified regarding detailed glucose and insulin profiles in response to foods commonly consumed by paediatric populations, as well as a lack of long-term evidence including the need for suitable predictors during childhood and adolescence to anticipate health effects during adulthood.

“…As a multifactorial disorder, childhood obesity could be potentially prevented, and food preferences, socioeconomic factors, sedentary lifestyles as well as cultural preferences of body composition have been shown to be the potentially modifiable factors in its genesis. [3][4][5][6][7][8][9] Physical activity is known to be protective from weight gain and obesity. 10 The CDC recommends that preschool children be active most of the day 11 while school-aged children should spend at least 60 minutes in moderate-to high-intensity physical activities every day.…”

Childhood obesity is highly prevalent among certain populations of New York. This cross-sectional pilot study examined the associations between parental attitudes about outdoor activities and body mass index (BMI). A questionnaire was distributed among parents of 1 to 13 aged children at ambulatory pediatric clinics. Of 104 children included in the study 57 were of normal weight and 47 were overweight or obese. Most parents of children with BMI <85% reported frequent playground utilization, considered longer hours to spend outside on weekdays, reported a larger total temperature range for outdoor playground utilization and a lower tolerable minimum temperature compared to parents of children with BMI ≥85%, p < .05. Only having a parent born outside of the United States remained a significant predictor of overweight and obesity in the final model. Parents of children with BMI < 85% are more willing to spend time outdoors, regardless of weather. Immigrant parents are protective against overweight.
