Abstract:

(1) Background: Family environments can impact obesity risk among adolescents. Little is known about the mechanisms by which parents can influence obesity-related adolescent health behaviours and specifically how parenting practices (e.g., rules or routines) and/or their own health behaviours relate to their adolescent’s behaviours. The primary aim of the study explored, in a sample of overweight/obese adolescents, how parenting practices and/or parental modeling of physical activity (PA) behaviours relate to adolescents’ PA while examining the moderating role of parenting styles and family fu

Abstract:

Background. Overweight and obesity are major risk factors for chronic diseases and are the leading cause of mortality worldwide. Obesity during adolescence is strongly associated with adulthood obesity leading to increased morbidities and mortality. As a developing country undergoing rapid urbanization, Nepal is in a transitional phase where undernutrition coexists with obesity; however, there is a dearth of literature on the status of adolescent obesity in the rural section of Nepal. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of adolescent obesity in a rural district of Nepal and f

Findings indicated positive changes in adolescent and parent outcomes, although no indirect pathways in the proposed mediation models were supported and changes were not sustained long-term.

This represents a 35% to 48% increase from the data that were collected between 1988 and 1994.

Abstract:

According to current definitions [1], individuals ages 2 to 18 years are determined to be overweight (≥ 85th and < 95th percentile [of prior population distributions]) or obese (≥ 95th percentile) based on U.S. age- and sex-specific body mass index (BMI; kg/m 2) charts updated by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in 2000 [2].

Abstract:

Background: Obesity is reaching epidemic proportions globally, with a threefold increase from 1975 to 2016.
