“…Nutritional calculations were performed using the Standard Tables of Food Composition in Japan 22) . Although this questionnaire has not been validated in an adolescent population, the calculation of total energy intake based on the questionnaire in the present study (2,229 Kcal in males and 1,827 Kcal in females, refer to Table 1) was compatible with the data from the Ministry of Health, Labour, and Welfare for 15-to 18-year-old subjects in 2007 (2,205 Kcal in males and 1,797 Kcal in females) 23) . The nutritional survey by the Ministry is conducted yearly by authorized dietitians and by door-to-door interviews.…”

Aim:The aim of this study was to determine the impact of the lifestyles of adolescents and their parents on the levels of cardiovascular (CV) risk factors in the adolescents. Methods: A total of 755 volunteers (331 male, 424 female) aged 15 to 18 years were included. Abdominal obesity, hypertension, elevated triglyceride levels, decreased high density lipoprotein-cholesterol levels, and hyperglycemia were considered to be CV risk factors. Self-reported lifestyle, including participation in school-based extracurricular (EC) physical activities, time spent on physical activity or watching television (TV), and average daily food intake were assessed. Parental information on weight status and lifestyle was also obtained. Results: Multivariate regression analyses showed that participation in EC physical activities, time spent watching TV, regular breakfast consumption, total energy intake, fiber intake per 1,000 Kcal, and parental BMI were independently associated with the levels of one or more CV risk factors in adolescents. Among these, participation in EC physical activities had a profound effect on adolescent CV risk factor levels. The risk of male adolescent obesity was associated with paternal obesity, but not with maternal obesity. Conversely, the risk of female adolescent obesity was associated with maternal obesity but not with paternal obesity. Conclusions: Participation in EC physical activities may be the first-line approach for adolescents to maintain favorable CV risk factor levels. An association between paternal or maternal obesity and adolescent obesity differs between adolescent genders in Japan; thus, approaches focusing on parents should take the gender of the adolescent into consideration. Obesity is associated with a cluster of cardiovascular (CV) risk factors, including abdominal obesity, impaired glucose tolerance, hypertension, and dyslipidemia, which have collectively been termed metabolic syndrome in both children and adults 3,4) . It is well known that the development of CV risk factors, including obesity, is associated with adverse behavioral patterns, such as decreased physical activity [5][6][7][8] , increased sedentary lifestyle, in particular television (TV) watching [8][9][10][11] , and unhealthy dietary habits 5,[11][12][13][14][15][16] . Parental obesity is also strongly associated IntroductionThe prevalence of overweight and obesity is increasing rapidly, and the ongoing obesity epidemic represents a major public health burden worldwide with CV risk factors in children and adolescents 9,10) . Comprehensive analysis that takes all these factors into account is needed to determine the appropriate approach for the prevention of CV diseases 16) ; however, the impact of each of the different lifestyle factors on individual CV risk factors in adolescents is not well known.Therefore, the present study was conducted to evaluate the impact of lifestyles of adolescents and their parents on the levels of CV risk factors in adolescents based on data from adolescent volunteers.

“…Dietary patterns are typically addressed through education; the American Heart Association recommends the use of a registered dietitian to provide nutritional education. 5 In addition to addressing diet, including exercise in treatment improves outcomes over nu- tritional education alone. 6,7 Family-based behavioral interventions are most effective in treatment of overweight children; Epstein et al 6 demonstrated maintenance of treatment effects over 10 years when parents were included as active participants in treatment.…”

Background: Treatment studies about childhood obesity in primary care are lacking. We hypothesized that providing a paid family membership to the YMCA would be effective in reducing weight.Methods: Patients 5 to17 years old in at least the 85th body mass index (BMI) percentile were eligible. All participants were scheduled to attend 4 nutrition classes and to return for evaluation at 2, 4, 6, 9, and 12 months. Participants were randomized to nutrition classes only (n ‫؍‬ 39) or nutrition classes and family YMCA membership (n ‫؍‬ 44). The primary outcome measure was year change in BMI-for-age percentile.Results

“…The prevalence of overweight and obesity in children is increasing rapidly and the ongoing obesity epidemic represents a major public health burden world-wide (Ebbeling et al, 2002;Daniels et al, 2009). Obesity is thought to pose a major risk of morbidity and premature mortality in adulthood for those affected by cardiovascular disease.…”
