Obesity In Children

BACKGROUND:Over the past decades, the growth of overweight and obesity among the population, especially significant in children, is registered everywhere. To assess the dynamics of the obesity epidemic and to monitor the effectiveness of preventive interventions in the regions, it is recommended that monitoring be carried out in the regions to ensure regular measurement of body weight. AIMS:to assess the dynamics of the frequency of overweight and obesity in children of primary school age in the Tyumen region. METHODS:a survey of children aged 811 years old residing in the Tyumen region in 2008 (n=390) and in 2017 (n=468) was conducted. The choice of territories in 2008 was carried out by the cluster method in 2008 and in 2017. The studies were conducted by expeditionary method with the departure of a team of doctors in the territory with the measurement of height and body weight and determination of the body mass index (BMI). The results were evaluated according to the SDS BMI guidelines. To compare the frequency of occurrence of qualitative features, the chi-square test () was used, to compare samples by quantitative characteristics, Student's t-criterion was used. The critical level of significance (p) was checked for statistical hypotheses to be 0.05. RESULTS:In 2017, in the Tyumen region, an increase in the frequency of obesity in children of primary school age is 2.4 times higher than in 2008 (6.7% in 2008, 15.8% in 2017), in boys as in girls. Overweight and obesity are more often diagnosed in boys in 2017 (40.0%). Girls 811 years in 2017 compared with 2008 increased the frequency of both obesity and overweight. CONCLUSION:In 2017, in the Tyumen region, an increase in the frequency of obesity in children of primary school age is 2.4 times higher than in 2008 (6.7% in 2008, 15.8% in 2017), as in boys, and for girls. Overweight and obesity are more often diagnosed in boys in 2017 (40.0%). Girls 811 years in 2017 compared with 2008 increased the frequency of both obesity and overweight.

OBJECTIVE: To assess the prevalence of low body weight/thinness, overweight and obesity in a representative sample of children and adolescents from a Brazilian region with low economic development. METHODS: A total of 982 girls and 986 boys, aged seven to 17 years old and assisted by Segundo Tempo Program, from Montes Claros, Minas Gerais, Brazil, were included in the study. Low body weight/thinness, overweight and obesity were defined based on body mass cut-off indexes recommended by the International Obesity Task Force. The prevalence of the nutritional status according to sex and age was compared by chi-square test. RESULTS: In girls, the frequency of low body weight/thinness, overweight and obesity was 4.1, 18.4 and 3.8%, respectively; in boys, these percentages were 6.3, 13.2 and 2.9%, respectively. The low body weight/thinness for girls raised from 2.7% (7-10 years old) to 5.5% (15-17 years old); the body weight excess (overweight and obesity) decreased from 30.1 to 16.2% for the same age groups. In boys, the corresponding trends were from 3.2 to 9.4% for low body weight/thinness, and from 23.4 to 9.2%, for body weight excess. CONCLUSIONS: The data indicate that, even in a region with low economic status, the body weight excess was the main problem associated with nutritional health. The high overweight and obesity prevalence rates indicate the need of public policies for promoting healthy feeding behaviors and physical activity.

The aim of the research was to study the cellular composition of the gums in children of primary school age with normal body weight and overweight for further use of this data in the early diagnostics of periodontal diseases. Materials and methods: We examined 81 children aged from 6 to 12 years. Cytological examination of gingival cytograms was performed in all examined children. Results: Based on the analysis of the quantitative content of epithelial cells in children with normal body weight, their ratio was established, which is determined by the percentage of 0: 6: 94 (parabasal, intermediate, superficial). The obtained data completely coincide with the percentage of the differentiated ratio of epitheliocytes of multilayered squamous epithelium in children with normal body weight with inflammation and without it in the periodontal tissues. Our cytological examinations of gingival scrape smears in overweight children in contrast to the results of the study of epithelial scrape smears in children with normal body weight have some differences. Thus, in the process of calculation, the degree of differentiation of various epitheliocytes determines their percentage as follows – 3: 7: 90 (parabasal, intermediate, superficial) for children with gingivitis, and 2: 5: 93 (parabasal, intermediate, superficial) for children without inflammation in the periodontal tissues. Conclusions: The obtained results allowed us to conclude that in overweight children, in contrast to children with normal body weight, the number of parabasal cells decreases, and the number of superficial and intermediate cells increases.

Body scheme plays an important role in the development of educational skills such as reading and writing, visual-spatial thinking, spatial gnosis, optical-spatial strategies. Children of primary school age with hearing impairment have left hemispheric and right hemispheric insufficiency, difficulties in interhemispheric interaction and the integrity of perception. This hinders their full integration into the educational process and reduces their adaptive abilities. The study of the body scheme in hearing impaired children of primary school age was the goal of an empirical work, and a hypothesis was the assumption of the existence of features of its structural organization. Respondents aged 8,97±0,76 years (N=60) participated in the study. 30 hearing impaired primary schoolchildren (12 female children and 18 male children) were included in the experimental group and 30 junior schoolchildren without hearing impairments (14 female children and 16 males) entered the control group. Neuropsychological tests were used to assess the neuropsychological parameters of the body scheme. The results obtained attest to the features of the body scheme in hearing impaired children of primary school age. It was found that the ideas about their own body, the organization of movements in relation to the body scheme and the perception of space in children with hearing impairments are formed to a lesser extent than in children of the control group.

Postural Disorders

The article identifies the causes of deviations in the development of posture in children of primary school age and characterizes the influence of this pathology on the health and physical development of schoolchildren. The necessity of development of coordination of movements in children of 6-10 years old, as well as its role in the formation of posture, prevention and correction of its defects has been substantiated. The modern approaches to the development of the motor function of schoolchildren with postural disorders are disclosed. The specificity of the action of physical exercises for the formation of the correct motor stereotype of the posture of students is highlighted, the features of the influence of dosed muscle tensions for the prevention and correction of the posture of younger students are characterized. During primary school age it is important to form the correct posture, prevent and prevent various deformities of the spine, as well as the use of dosed muscle tension and skills to maintain physiologically correct torso position in the sagittal plane and symmetrical spine position in the front to eliminate deviations in posture development at the initial stages of the ir appearance. The degree of development and opportunities for improvement of the motor sphere of children is limited by the presence of disorders of the functional activity of sensory and physiological systems of the body, including disorders of the musculoskeletal system, which include deviations in posture development. Lag in the development of motor skills of children increases the risk of forming an incorrect motor stereotype of posture and vice versa, in children with deviations in posture development there is a complication of motor skills, insufficient development of certain muscle groups, impaired balance, coordination. There are no medical contraindications to exercise in children of primary school age with postural disorders. Formation of motor function of junior schoolchildren with posture disorders involves the use of dosed exercise for the development of musculoskeletal sensitivity, development of rational flexibility of the spine, strengthening muscle groups of the muscular corset, normalization of torso muscle tone, taking into account the type of posture disorder. The development of coordination of movements of junior schoolchildren is a necessary condition for consolidating physiologically correct tors o positions while maintaining a stable posture and movement.

Investigation of the possibility of using the existing regulatory and technical documentation for the design of clothing for boys of primary school age. Methodology.  The  work  uses  the  contact  method  of  obtaining  anthropometric  information characterizing the fi gure of the child. An anthropometric method was used to determine body types. Findings. The manufacture of clothing according to the existing regulatory and technical documentation does not take into account the modern features of the body of children, which will lead to a violation of the conformity of the fi nished product to a decrease in consumer satisfaction with commensurate clothing. This indicates the need for a broad study of the physique of the child population in order to revise the existing system of typical fi gures, namely, to determine the optimal number of fi gures, typ es of physiques and their quantitative characteristics. A signifi cant discrepancy between the typologica l composition of the fi gures in comparison with OST 17-67-88 and the composition of the typical fi gures of modern boys has been established. Only 48.34% of today's primary school age boys are provided in the industry standard, and 3.7% in other child standard age groups. Originality. Based on the analysis of modern typical fi gures of boys of primary school age, the percentage distribution of standard sizes in the sample was calculated and a list of typical fi gures that were absent in the children's industry standard was established. Practical value. The typological composition of the fi gures of boys of the younger age group has been determined, taking into account the leading dimensional characteristics to ensure an increase in the level of satisfaction of this group of children in the clothing of boys of mass production.

Primary School Age

The present study examined age differences in time-based prospective memory (TBPM) in primary school age children and tested the role of self-initiated memory retrieval and strategic time monitoring (TM) as possible developmental mechanisms. Fifty-four children were recruited from local primary schools (27 younger children, mean age = 7.2 ± 0.55 years, and 27 older children, mean age = 9.61 ± 0.71 years). The task was a driving game scenario in which children had to drive a vehicle (ongoing task) and to remember to refuel before the vehicle runs out of gas (TBPM task, i.e., the fuel gauge served as child-appropriate time equivalent). Fuel gauge was either displayed permanently (low level of self-initiation) or could only be viewed on demand by hitting a button (high level of self-initiation). The results revealed age-dependent TBPM differences with better performance in older children. In contrast, level of self-initiated memory retrieval did not affect TBPM performance. However, strategies of TM influenced TBPM, as more frequent time checking was related to better performance. Patterns of time checking frequency differed according to children’s age and course of the game, suggesting difficulties in maintaining initial strategic TM in younger children. Taken together, the study revealed ongoing development of TBPM across primary school age. Observed age differences seemed to be associated with the ability to maintain strategic monitoring.

Цель. Анализ влияния характера зрения (ХЗ)на показатели сложной сенсомоторной реакции на движущийся объект (РДО)у детей младшего школьного возраста с содружественным сходящимся косоглазием (ССК). Материал и методы. Было обследовано 33 ребенка (66 глаз), в возрасте 6–11 лет, с ССК на фонеHm4,6±2,5Д. Сформированы 3 группы, в зависимости от ХЗ, на фоне полной коррекции. 1 группа – 12 детей (24 глаза) с монокулярным ХЗ, угол косоглазия 5,9±4,0°, 2 группа –12 детей (24 глаза)с одновременным ХЗ, угол косоглазия 3,9±3,6°,3 группа – дети с бинокулярным ХЗ – 9 пациентов(18 глаз), угол косоглазия 0,9±0,8°. Всем пациентам проводилось стандартное страбологическое обследование. РДО была исследована с помощью аппаратно-программного комплекса «НС-Психотест»(ООО «Нейрософт). Результаты. Среднее время РДО в 1 группе –29,1±9,5мс, во 2 группе – 16,6±8,4мс, в 3 группе –-12,4±4,1мс (р <0,05). Положительное значение среднегруппового показателя РДО детей 1 и 2 группы является следствием преобладания у большинства обследуемых процессов торможения в ЦНС. Отрицательное значение среднегруппового показателя детей 3 группы является свидетельством преобладающей реакции НС в виде дисбаланса течения нервных процессов в сторону возбуждения в ответ на предложенную нагрузку. Выводы. Отсутствие у детей 1 и 2 группы бинокулярного зрения приводит не только к нарушению аккомодационно-конвергентных взаимосвязей в зрительном анализаторе, но и является причиной изменения зрительной экстраполяции, что приводит к снижению подвижности нервных процессов и преобладанию тормозных процессов в ЦНС(положительное значение средне группового показателя времени РДО детей 1 группы – 29,1±9,5 мс,2 группы – 16,6±8,4 мс).
