Background: Obesity and high blood pressure is increasingly prevalent, not only in adults but also in children. Initially thought to be disease of high income countries (HIC), this disease is now increasing across low middle income countries (LMIC). This study aims to estimate the prevalence of obesity and hypertension among urban school children in Mumbai.Methods: Guidelines of Indian Academy of Pediatrics were used to calculate BMI Z Score and identify the overweight and obese adolescents. Children from the age group of 9 to 15 years were selected from schools in Mumbai. Standard guidelines of blood pressure measurement using Sex height specific blood pressure percentile charts were used. Normotensive, pre-hypertensive and hypertensive adolescents were recognized. Associations among both groups were checked using chi-square test of significance and gender wise differences were studied.Results: Among 1486 adolescents studied prevalence of overweight and obesity was found to be 20.18% and 16.01% respectively. While the prevalence of pre-hypertension and hypertension was found to be 7.5% and 5.4% respectively. Gender wise significant difference was found; boys had blood pressure slightly higher than that of girls.Conclusions: Study documents scenario of increasing obesity and hypertension among urban school children of India. Strong association exists between both obese/ overweight and hypertensive disorder.

Since the 1950s food safety hazards have been categorized simply as (micro) biological, chemical or physical hazards with no clear differentiation between those that cause acute and chronic harm. Indeed international risk assessment methods, including hazard analysis critical control point (HACCP) use these criteria. However, the spectrum of food related illness continues to grow now encompassing food allergy and intolerance, obesity, type 2 diabetes, stroke, heart disease, cancer as well as food poisoning, foodborne illness and food contamination. Therefore over a half-century later is this the time to redefine the spectrum of what constitutes food related illness? This paper considers whether such "redefinition" of food related intoxicating and infectious agents would provide more targeted policy instruments and lead to better risk assessment and thus mitigation of such risk within the food supply chain.

Introduction Le surpoids et l’obésité au cours de l’adolescence constituent un problème préoccupant de santé publique à l’échelle mondiale en raison de leur retentissement potentiel sur la santé et de leur fréquence croissante. La présente étude avait pour objectif de déterminer la prévalence du surpoids et de l’obésité chez les adolescents scolarisés dans les établissements publics et privés à Lubumbashi, en République Démocratique du Congo. Méthodes Il s’agissait d’une étude transversale menée auprès de 5.341 adolescents âgés de 10 à 19 ans, dont 2.858 (53,5%) filles et 2.483 (46,5%) garçons ont constitué notre échantillon. Pour chacun d’eux, nous avons mesuré le poids et la taille puis calculé l’indice de masse corporelle (IMC). Résultats La moyenne du poids était de 43,78 ± 11,62 kg (soit 42,39 ± 12,11 kg pour les garçons et 44,95 ± 11,04 kg pour les filles), celle de la taille était de 151,30 ± 13,09 cm (soit 151,20 ± 14,64 cm pour les garçons et 151,38 ± 11,58 cm pour les filles) et celle de l’IMC était de 18,82 ± 3,15 kg/m 2 (soit 19,39 ± 3,39 kg/m 2 pour les garçons et 18,17 ± 2,71 kg/m 2 pour les filles). La prévalence du surpoids était de 8% et celle de l’obésité était de 1%. Les filles étaient significativement plus touchées par le surpoids (10,7% filles contre 5% garçons) et l’obésité (1,5 % filles contre 0,4% garçons) que les garçons. Conclusion Le surpoids et l’obésité chez les adolescents en milieu scolaire s’avèrent une réalité à Lubumbashi. La détermination de la prévalence du surpoids et de l’obésité pour cette catégorie d’âge au plan national est recommandable pour leurs préventions et prises en charges.
