Overview

Systematic review shows children with metabolically unhealthy obesity face greater diabetes risk in adulthood, suggesting monitoring is essential.

Key Points

  • Children with metabolically healthy obesity (MHO) have a 2.72 times higher risk of diabetes compared to metabolically healthy normal weight (MHNW).
  • Metabolically unhealthy obesity (MUO) participants showed a 3.94 times greater risk of diabetes than MHNW.
  • Long-term risks of diabetes and metabolic syndrome decreased with adult BMI adjustments, especially for MHO.
  • Regular monitoring and timely interventions are vital for children with MUO to reduce future health risks.
