Resolving early obesity leads to a cardiometabolic profile within normal ranges at 23 years old in a two-decade prospective follow-up study

Abstract Obesity is the most important predisposing factor for cardiovascular disease and type-2 diabetes. We explored the relationship between the age at onset of obesity and selected cardiometabolic parameters in young adults. Longitudinal study of n = 1,039 participants (48% males) in their early...

We explored the relationship between the age at onset of obesity and selected cardiometabolic parameters in young adults. Longitudinal study of n = 1,039 participants (48% males) in their early twenties. BMI was measured at birth, 1–5–10–12–14–16–23 years. BMI trajectories were interpolated. Five groups were identified: never obese (never-OB); early childhood obesity transitioning to non-obesity before adolescence (former-OB); obesity starting in preadolescence transitioning to non-obesity as adolescents (transient-OB); obesity from adolescence into early adulthood (recent-onset-OB); participants who were obese in early childhood and remained obese into adulthood (persistent-OB). Waist circumference (WC), blood pressure, lipids, glucose, and insulin were measured at 23 years. HOMA-IR and the Metabolic Syndrome Risk Z-Score were estimated. In the sample, 47% were obese during at least one time-point. Mean obesity duration was 20.7 years, 8.5 years, 6.2 years, and 3.3 years in persistent-OBs, recent-onset-OBs, former-OBs, and transient-OBs, respectively. The cardiometabolic profile was more adverse in recent-onset-OBs (12%) and persistent-OBs (15%) compared to never-OB participants (53%). Although former-OBs (15%) and transient-OBs (4%) had higher WC values than never-OBs, no differences were seen in other biomarkers. Both persistent and recent-onset obesity led to a cardiometabolic profile of risk in early adulthood, as suggested by values of WC, HOMA-IR, and hs-CRP above normal limits and HDL-chol values below normal limits. Participants who had obesity in early childhood or preadolescence but transitioned to a non-obesity status had a cardiometabolic profile similar to participants who were never obese and within normal limits. Obesity leads to risky values in a number of cardiometabolic biomarkers in young adulthood independent of age at obesity onset. Likewise, overcoming obesity during the pediatric age leads to a cardiometabolic profile within normal ranges at 23 years of age.Paulina Correa-BurrowsJosé RoganEstela BlancoPatricia EastBetsy LozoffSheila GahaganRaquel BurrowsNature PortfolioarticleMedicineRScienceQENScientific Reports, Vol 11, Iss 1, Pp 1-12 (2021)
