“…An ongoing evaluation study will provide important results for the future. Second, the moderate mediation effect of peerrelated problems may reflect the increased perceived interpersonal stress among adolescents with obesity, especially the experience of weight-related teasing and victimization, which has been shown to be a significant mediator in the relation between BMI or obesity and psychosocial health [18,26,28,29]. Similarly, the importance of addressing weight stigma "as a psychosocial contributor to obesity" in improving the success of weight management programs was emphasized in a current study [51].…”

Overall, these psychological factors mediated the inverse association of BMI or obesity and global HRQoL [28], psychological well-being [29], and emotional well-being [26]. Similarly, in the only longitudinal study among adolescents, the positive association between obesity and mental health problems 2 years later was reduced but still remained significant when victimization was included as a mediating factor [18].…”

“…It is even more valuable to understand these underlying consequences of childhood obesity early since paediatric obesity tracks strongly into adulthood, resulting in higher risk of adult adiposity, 34 heart disease, 35 low HDL cholesterol level, hypertension, and high triglyceride and glycated haemoglobin levels 36 . Studies also report that having severe obesity in childhood is significantly associated with an increased risk of self‐esteem issues, 37 poor academic performance, 38 and premature mortality 39 . Additionally, individuals with higher BMIs have increased healthcare resource utilisation costs when compared to those with healthy BMIs 40 with prescriptions and hospitalizations acquiring the highest, and most costs 41 .…”
