“…Although overweight and obesity prevalence in Kimdong was low, it indicated a beginning tendency of overweight and obesity in rural areas of Vietnam. Like many other developing countries [30–32], Vietnam is experiencing the double burden of undernutrition and excess body weight. However, Kimdong district was not really touched by the double burden of malnutrition that is very common in many other developing countries [29].…”

Objective. To evaluate the nutritional status of children from 12 to 36 months of age in Kimdong, a rural district in Hungyen Province, Northern Vietnam, in 2017. Subjects and Methods. A cross-sectional study was carried out on 327 children aged 12-36 months. The data collected included anthropometric measurement, serum hemoglobin (Hb), and vitamin D concentration. Blood analysis was done at the Center Laboratory of Hungyen Obstetrics and Pediatrics Hospital. Underweight, stunted, and wasted children were classified based on z-scores cut-off less than -2 SD of weight for age (WAZ), height for age (HAZ), and weight for height (WHZ), respectively. Overweight and obese children were defined if WHZ was more than + 2SD. Anemic child was applied when Hb concentration was less than 110 g/L while vitamin D deficiency was termed for level less than 20 ng/L. Results. The prevalence of underweight, stunted, wasted, and overweight/obese children was 7.6%, 23.5%, 6.7%, and 1.2%, respectively. The prevalence of anemia and vitamin D deficiency was 33.3% and 47.7%, respectively. Malnutrition, anemia, and vitamin D deficiency were not statistically different by sex. Malnutrition and vitamin D deficiency were not statistically different by age group but anemia by age groups was significantly different. Conclusions. Stunting is still prevalent in children aged 12-36 months in Kimdong. Moreover, anemia and vitamin D deficiency also affected children in this area. Some interventions should be conducted to improve the nutritional status of children in Kimdong district.

“…106 Although the last results from the National Nutritional Survey do not report specific data from North of Santander, the Eastern Region of Colombia (which includes the North of Santander) presented an overweight prevalence in children under five years of 6.7%. 107 In Cúcuta, Reina et al 108 carried out a study to identify the risk factors related to overweight and obesity in 70 children of both sexes, reporting that 23% of the children were overweight, and 17% were obese; also, it was noticed that the highest prevalence of both entities belonged to the socioeconomic levels 2 and 3. Likewise, assessing children's dietary habits lead to conclude that 30% of them did not perform any physical activity while 60% spent 1 to 2 daily hours of TV (out of which 23% had overweight); besides, they also spent 1 to 2 hours a day playing videogames.…”

Weight excess during the childhood has been one of the most critical public health problems worldwide in the past few decades. It is considered a significant predictor of adulthood obesity, increased cardiometabolic diseases, and premature mortality. Since the Industrial Revolution, childhood obesity has risen due to sedentary lifestyles and poor eating habits, contributing to the development of obesogenic environments around children in different parts of the world. In this regard, Oceania is positioned as the continent with the highest prevalence globally; however, these results did not consider Australia and New Zealand’s data, probably due to the significant differences in population sizes. America has the second highest percentage of children under five who are overweight. Curiously, Asia’s obesity rates are more significant in higher socioeconomic statuses and urban areas than in children aged 2-4 years. Likewise, Africa displays similar epidemiologic behaviour. Qatar and Kuwait are the countries with the highest obesity prevalence on the continent. Moreover, Europe exhibits a notable South-North gradient, which establishes a higher prevalence of obesity in Mediterranean countries than the Nordic ones. In this regard, various prevention and interventional programs have been developed to combat this silent epidemic, focusing their efforts on nutritional education, improving children’s and parents’ lifestyles, and fighting the influence of the media on their behaviour, and decisions. Therefore, the objective of this review was to describe the epidemiological behaviour of childhood obesity from a continental perspective.

Introducción: Uno de los enfoques de investigación en fisiología del metabolismo corporal ha sido evaluar el efecto de la obesidad sobre los procesos de aprendizaje y memoria. Este trabajo tiene como objetivo describir y analizar los principales hallazgos científicos relacionados con las posibles afectaciones en la memoria y el aprendizaje, a causa de la obesidad en diferentes grupos etarios, a partir de estudios en humanos y modelos murinos. Materiales y métodos: Para la búsqueda electrónica de literatura se utilizaron las bases de datos Biblioteca Virtual de Salud, Biological Science Database, Biomed Central, Ebsco, Nature, PubMed, Scielo y Science Direct en el período 2010-2021. Con base en los criterios de inclusión y exclusión y la evaluación del título y del resumen, se seleccionaron los artículos a analizar para esta revisión de tema. Resultados: La obesidad genera alteraciones sobre el aprendizaje y la memoria en todos los grupos etarios, específicamente sobre la memoria a largo plazo, la memoria espacial y la memoria de trabajo, así como en la expresión de marcadores asociados a la función cognitiva, principalmente BDNF. Esta epidemia produce afectaciones relacionadas con la memoria de trabajo, la atención y el rendimiento escolar; aunque estos hallazgos fueron diferentes en cada estudio. Adicionalmente, se ha reportado disminución en la expresión del factor neurotrófico derivado del cerebro (BDNF), así como en la expresión de otras proteínas, particularmente en el hipocampo, las cuales se relacionan con la función cognitiva. Conclusiones: La obesidad pregestacional y gestacional impacta negativamente estos procesos en la descendencia y según el grupo etario originan afectaciones en la neuroplasticidad y en diferentes componentes de la función cognitiva. Sin embargo, se requiere profundizar en la investigación puesto que algunos hallazgos son contradictorios y falta información de otras áreas encefálicas relacionadas y la reversibilidad de estos efectos.
