Abstract:
Background of the Study: Overweight and obesity are defined as abnormal or excessive fat accumulation that presents a risk to health. A crude population measure of obesity is the body mass index (BMI), a person’s weight (in kilograms) divided by the square of his or her height (in metres). A person with a BMI of 30 or more is generally considered obese. A person with a BMI equal to or more than 25 is considered overweight. Obesity result from increased caloric intake that consistently exceeds caloric requirements. Change in life style practices including increasing consumption of oily, junk food, decreased physical activities, watching and playing video games for prolonged duration etc. are the most important factors in causing childhood obesity. Aim and Objectives: The aim of the study is to assess the knowledge of adolescent girls on prevention and management of obesity in selected schools. Approach and Design: The descriptive study approach was used. Sampling and Sampling Criteria: Simple Random Probabality sampling technique was used to select 120 adolescent girls from selected schools at Mysuru. Tools and Technique: Structured knowledge questionnaire was used to collect the data. The data was analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics. Result: Result revealed that majority 50(41.66%) adolescent girls had average knowledge, 40(33.33%) girls had good knowledge and 30(25%) girls had poor knowledge. Chi-square analysis revealed that the knowledge and personal variables are not significantly associated with their selected personal variables like age, class of studying, source of information and familial history of obesity. Conclusion: It was concluded that, adolescent girls have average knowledge; hence the knowledge was reinforced by providing information pamphlet to the adolescent girls that contains essential information regarding the causes, consequences, prevention and management of obesity.

Abstract:
AbstractObjectiveThe serious consequences of obesity and eating disorders (ED), difficulties encountered in treatment and the high prevalence of these conditions are important reasons to develop efforts aimed at their prevention. The implementation of integrated interventions aimed at preventing risk factors for both obesity and ED constitutes a very exciting development. In the present paper we discuss and review the main reasons for an integrated approach to the spectrum of eating- and weight-related problems, which include anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, anorexic and bulimic behaviours, unhealthy dieting practices, body dissatisfaction, binge-eating disorder, overweight and obesity. Given differences between the fields with regard to current perspectives and objectives, key barriers to an integrated approach to prevention are discussed. In order to show the possibilities of development of this approach, we review the main contributions made to date in the fields of both obesity and ED prevention. In particular, environmental approaches in the prevention of obesity and ED are reviewed, given their potential for preventing a broad spectrum of eating- and weight-related problems. Furthermore, several examples of initiatives that have utilized an integrated approach to prevention are discussed.DesignNarrative review.ConclusionsWe recommend a scenario in which the two fields share knowledge to enhance the difficult work of preventing and treating both ED and obesity.

Abstract:
Numerous investigations documented that there is a significant correlation between obesity and the onset of malignant neoplasms. It has been known for decades that Vojvodina is an area characterized by frequent occurrence of obesity with adult population, which starts much earlier in childhood. Good knowledge of incidence in child obesity is a first step in the prevention of malignant diseases. The study encompassed the anthropometric measurements (body height and body weight) of 3298 boys and 3146 girls aged from 6 to 15 years, from 10 primary schools of the wider area of the city of Novi Sad. The measurement data served as the basis to calculate the body mass index (BMI). On the basis of BMI the incidence of the overall obesity (?P85) among the examined boys on the territory of Novi Sad community was found to be 16.59%. Overweight (P85 - P95) was observed in 10.28%, and obesity (?P95) in 6.31% boys. The analysis of the nutrition status among the examined schoolgirls on the territory of Novi Sad community, on the basis of BMI, showed that overall obesity (?P85) was present in 14.69% of schoolgirls; overweight (P85 - P95) was found in 9.38%, and obesity (?P95) in 5.31% of the examined schoolgirls. The high percentage of obese schoolchildren cannot be considered as desirable, especially if it is taken into account that there has been a significant increase compared with the previous examination.

Abstract:
Background and Aims The World Health Organization (WHO, www.who.int) and European Association for the Study of Obesity (EASO, www.easo.org) have suggested to substitute the term Obesity with Adiposity Based Chronic Disease (ABCD) in the 11th International Classification of Diseases ICD­11. The term ABCD is believed to be more precise based on three dimensions—etiology, degree of disease and health risk. The intention is to improve the diagnostic and therapeutic algorithms as well as the relationship between healthcare professionals and society [1]. Aim The aim of the present study is to make an overview of the current data for epidemiology, diagnosis, treatment and prevention of childhood obesity. The current data for the prevalence of severe obesity among primary school children in 21 European countries show differences among the countries: from 1 in 5 to 1 in 3 obese children [2]. Childhood obesity is an extremely heterogeneous disorder and demands proper diagnostic evaluation for every individual patient. Early onset and severe obesity may be caused by rare mutations of the genes associated with appetite or energy control and rare syndromes. Once diagnosed, treatment options are available [3]. The most prevalent type of obesity is polygenic and is called “simple obesity”. It is extremely heterogeneous in genetic susceptibility. The new approach of quantifying inherited susceptibility has led to the validation of the genome­wide polygenic score (GPS) [4]. The treatment options for childhood obesity are still limited and the success rate is inconsistent [5]. The success rate of childhood obesity treatment and prevention of severe obesity is highly dependent on timely referral to specialist care.

Abstract:
Background: Child obesity is one of the main health problems all across the world, which leads to mental and physical health problems. Various models are used in designing intervention to prevent child obesity, one of which is social-cognitive theory (SCT). The constructs of social-cognitive theory are commonly used for designing preventive interventions. However, there is no specific tool based on the constructs of social-cognitive theory to assess the factors associated with child obesity. Aim: The aim of this study was to investigate the validity and confirmatory factor analysis of a SCT-based questionnaire for assessing obesity preventing behaviors among 4-6 years old children. Method: A cross-sectional study was first conducted in 2016 on 240 preschool children aged 4-6 years in Behbahan city (a city in southwest Iran) to assess the obesity prevention behaviors among them using a SCT-based questionnaire. To investigate the validity and confirmatory factor analysis of the SCT-based questionnaire, content and face validity as well as forward-backward translation method were used. Reliability of the questionnaire was also measured by Cronbach’s alpha coefficient and Intra-class Correlation Coefficient (ICC). Construct validity was assured by confirmatory factor analysis. To measure the obesity prevention behaviors in 4-6 years old children, the construct of SCT, including environment, emotional coping, outcome expectations, goal setting and self-efficacy were used. Also, the obesity prevention behaviors used in the model included physical activity, consumption of fruit and vegetable, consumption of sugar-free drinks, and screen. Results: Results of this study confirmed the acceptable content and face validity of the SCT-based questionnaire. The results of confirmatory factor analysis also confirmed the factor loading of more than 0.3 for all variables; therefore, the SCT-based questionnaire had an acceptable validity and reliability. Conclusions: Since the SCT-based questionnaire had an acceptable validity and reliability, it can be used to assess the obesity prevention behaviors in 4-6 year old children, and also to design relevant educational interventions.
