Childhood obesity and its co-morbidities -- including type 2
diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidemia, sleep apnea, and fatty liver
disease -- have seen striking increases in recent years. Despite a
wealth of investigation, there is considerable controversy
regarding the etiology of childhood obesity and the optimal
approaches for prevention and treatment. Pediatric Obesity:
Etiology, Pathogenesis, and Treatment addresses the controversy
with a range of features that make it a unique resource for those
who care for obese children and their families. Written from a
perspective that is international in scope, the distinguished
authors re-assess the roles of genetic and environmental factors in
the pathogenesis of childhood obesity and critically review new
studies of the effects of lifestyle, pharmacologic, and surgical
interventions. The evidence-based approach of Pediatric Obesity:
Etiology, Pathogenesis, and Treatment provides a comprehensive and
invaluable guide for all healthcare providers concerned with the
evaluation and care of children with nutritional and metabolic
disease and with the societal implications of the obesity epidemic.
