Association of parental obesity with cardiometabolic risk factors in their children: The CASPIAN-V study

Abstract: BackgroundThe family environment has a crucial role in the development of childhood obesity and related cardiometabolic disorders. This study aims to investigate the association of parental obesity and cardiometabolic risk factors in their children.MethodsThis multicentric cross-sectional study was performed on 14400 students (aged 7–18 years) and one of their parents. Students were recruited by multistage, stratified cluster sampling from urban and rural areas of 30 provinces of Iran. Fasting venous blood was… Show more

“…Regarding the association between women's BMI and CVD risk factors in their offspring, the current study reported mothers with high BMI values are predicted to have obese children, which was consistent with previous studies (64). Moreover, some cross-sectional studies in Iran and other countries reported that children with obese parents had signi cantly higher odds of obesity and elevated BP (18,65,66). This association is more attributed to the mother-offspring relationship (67).…”

“…The factors associated with excess total‐body adiposity and central adiposity may have consequences on the cardiovascular health in children and adolescents with congenital heart disease, considering that obesity, central obesity, high intakes of added sugar and trans fatty acids, and family history of obesity are associated with cardio‐metabolic markers. Previous studies report cardio‐metabolic markers altered in children and adolescents with congenital heart disease .…”

“…Therefore, we evaluated families with longevity or early deaths, so that all members of the same family had potentially similar lifestyle behaviour. The family environment has a critical role in the development of cardiometabolic disorders (such as smoking behaviour, eating habits, obesity and hypertension) in offspring and their children [ 64 ]. Additionally, the association of support from family for adoption of healthy eating habits and performing exercise with improvements of self-leadership (defined as a process of behavioural and cognitive self-evaluation and self-influence, in which an individual achieves the self-direction and self-motivation needed to make positive changes in behaviours) is also important as shown in cancer patients [ 65 ].…”
