The article gives a scientific and practical justification for the expansion of the diagnostic algorithm in pregnant women with the threat of miscarriage, taking into account the woman’s phenotype. The objective: was to study the basic patterns of the formation and disruption of the reproductive system in pregnant women with overweight and obesity and to evaluate possible criteria for the formation of endocrine and metabolic disorders for the timely diagnosis and prevention of perinatal complications in pregnant women, depending on their phenotype. Materials and methods. Clinical groups comprised 175 pregnant women of different body weight (120 women with overweight and obesity, who were observed from a small gestation period on the basis of the department of fetal medicine and the pathology of early pregnancy of the communal institution «Dnepropetrovsk Regional Perinatal Center with a hospital» in the city of Dnepr (I clinical group) and 55 pregnant women with normal body weight (II clinical group – comparison group)). Results. The dependence of the detection of menstrual cycle disorders in women with overweight and obesity is 1.5 times more often than in women with normal weight. The course of early gestation was analyzed. The necessity of lipid and carbohydrate profile estimation in these patients is substantiated. Authentic criteria of violations of carbohydrate metabolism are specified. Сonclusion. It is necessary to move from the assessment of the effects of obesity to the «Body Mass Index-Oriented Approach» to the assessment based on the «complicity approach». This will make it possible to individualize therapeutic tactics in pregnant women depending on their phenotype and reduce the incidence of gestational complications and perinatal losses. Key words: phenotype, pregnancy, loss of pregnancy, obesity, phenotype, carbohydrate profile, lipid profile, hormonal characteristics.

Normal Body Weight

The number of obese pregnant women increases annually and reaches 20-30%. The metabolism of hormones and minerals changes in the presence of a large amount of adipose tissue in the body of a pregnant woman, which leads to a number of obstetric and perinatal problems. The aim of the work is to study and compare the influence of the gestational process on the indicators of iron and copper metabolism in the blood serum of women with normal body weight and women with obesity. In the blood serum of 125 women of reproductive age, the content of hemoglobin, iron, transferrin, ferritin, copper and ceruloplasmin was determined. The influence of pregnancy on the indicators of iron and copper metabolism in the blood serum of women was revealed. Pregnancy in women with normal body weight increases the content of transferrin and ceruloplasmin. Correlation of ceruloplasmin and ferritin content with body mass index of obese pregnant women was revealed. In pregnancy with concomitant obesity, hyperferritinemia is formed with a reduced content of hemoglobin and serum iron. Knowledge of the indicators of iron and copper metabolism is necessary to optimize the observation of pregnant women, effective prevention and prediction of obstetric and perinatal complications.

Early Onset Preeclampsia

Aim. To evaluate the effects of maternal pre-pregnancy body weight and excessive gestational weight gain (GWG) on the risk of different subtypes of preeclampsia (PE).Methods. A cohort study of 289 pregnant women: 41 with early-onset (less than 34 weeks) preeclampsia (EPE), 76 with late-onset (more than 34 weeks) preeclampsia (LPE) and 172 normotensive women (control). Associations between anthropometric indicators (pre-pregnancy BMI, GWG, fat mass in the 1st, 2nd, 3rd trimesters, on the 2–3rd day after birth) and risk of PE and its subtypes were evaluated.Results. Pre-pregnancy body weight (r = 0.36; р = 0.000) and BMI (r = 0.38; р = 0.000) moderately increased risk of PE. GWG had independent risk of developing PE (r = 0.46; р = 0.000). Women with excessive GWG had an increased risk of PE in normal BMI (RR = 2.2; р = 0.019), in overweigh (RR = 2.7; р = 0.028), in obese (ОР = 5.2; р = 0.000). The risk of developing preeclampsia increased in normal weight with GWG more than 500 g per week in the 2nd trimester (р = 0.000) and more than 400 g per week in the 3d trimester (р = 0.000), total GWG more than 16.5 kg increased risk of preeclampsia in 3.4-fold (ОР = 3.4; р = 0.001). Overweight and obesity had an increased risk of late-onset preeclampsia (RR = 4.9; р = 0.000). No association was found for early-onset preeclampsia (p > 0.050). Gestational metabolic disorders were independent risk of LPE: weekly GWG and the per cent of fat mass in normal weight pregnant women with LPE were significantly higher compared to the women with EPE and control. The per cent of fat mass in the 1st trimester in PPE (23.90 ± 4.40 %) exceeded control (20.50 ± 4.30 %; р = 0.003) and EPE (21.20 ± 3.65 %; р = 0.008) groups. Differences were aggravated during pregnancy (р < 0.050).Conclusions. Pre-pregnancy overweight and obesity, excessive GWG and gain of fatty mass were an independent risk of developing PE with synergistic negative effect. Pre-pregnancy and gestational lipid dismetabolism were associated with LPE. Our results suggested that no correlation between pre-pregnancy BMI, GWG, fatty mass and risk of EPE.

The body weight of U.S. adults and children has risen markedly over the past three decades. The physical health consequences of obesity are widely documented, and emerging research from the Midlife in the United States study and other large-scale surveys reveals the harmful impact of obesity on adults’ psychosocial and interpersonal well-being. This chapter synthesizes recent research on the psychosocial implications of body weight, with attention to explanatory mechanisms and subgroup differences in these patterns. A brief statistical portrait of body weight is provided, documenting rates and correlates of obesity, with a focus on race, gender, and socioeconomic status disparities. The consequences of body weight for three main outcomes are described: institutional and everyday discrimination, interpersonal relationships, and psychological well-being. The chapter concludes with a discussion of the ways that recent integrative health research on the psychosocial consequences of overweight and obesity inform our understanding of population health.

Objectives: To retrospectively investigate the reliability of the age-based formula, year/4 + 3.5 mm in predicting size and year/2 + 12 cm in predicting insertion depth of preformed endotracheal tubes in children and correlate these data with the body mass index. Patients and Methods: Patients were classified into 4 groups according to their nutritional status: thinness, normal weight, overweight, and obesity; we then retrospectively compared the actual size of endotracheal tube and insertion depth to the predicting age-based formula and to the respective bend-to-tip distance of the used preformed tubes. Results: Altogether, 300 patients were included. The actual endotracheal tube size corresponded with the Motoyama formula (64.7%, 90% CI: 60.0-69.1), except for thin patients, where the calculated size was too large (0.5 mm). The insertion depth could be predicted within the range of the bend-to-tip distance and age-based formula in 85.0% (90% CI: 81.3-88.0) of patients. Conclusion: Prediction of the size of cuffed preformed endotracheal tubes using the formula of Motoyama was accurate in most patients, except in thin patients (body mass index < −2 SD). The insertion depth of the tubes was mostly in the range of the age-based-formula to the bend-to-tip distance.

Abstract Objectives It is unclear whether body weight status (underweight/normal weight/overweight/obese) is associated with allergic disease. Our objective was to investigate the relationship between body weight status (body mass index; BMI) and atopic allergic disease in prepubertal children, and to compare children with atopic allergic diseases with non atopic healthy children. Methods A prospective cross sectional study of 707 prepubertal children aged 3–10 years was performed; the participants were 278 atopic children with physician-diagnosed allergic disease (allergic rhinitis and asthma) (serum total IgE level >100 kU/l and eosinophilia >4%, or positivity to at least one allergen in skin test) and 429 non atopic healthy age- and sex-matched controls. Data were collected between December 2019 and November 2020 at the Pediatric General and Pediatric Allergy Outpatient Clinics of Bezmialem Vakıf University Hospital. Results Underweight was observed in 11.6% of all participants (10.8% of atopic children, 12.2% of healthy controls), and obesity in 14.9% of all participants (18.0% of atopic children, 12.8% of controls). Obese (OR 1.71; 95% CI: 1.08–2.71, p=0.021), and overweight status (OR 1.62; 95% CI: 1.06–2.50, p=0.026) were associated with an increased risk of atopic allergic disease compared to normal weight in pre-pubertal children. This association did not differ by gender. There was no relationship between underweight status and atopic allergic disease (OR 1.03; 95% CI: 0.63–1.68, p=0.894). Conclusions Overweight and obesity were associated with an increased risk of atopic allergic disease compared to normal weight among middle-income and high-income pre pubertal children living in Istanbul.

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 objective: to develop a regional gestational percentiles table of body weight for newborns in Kiev and Kyiv’s oblast. Materials and methods. Data of the body weight of newborns were collected from Kyiv City Perinatal Center from January 2016 by January 2017. The total number included 5244 live births in the period of gestation 40+0–40+6 weeks of gestation. The standard deviation of the body weight, expressed as the percentage of the average body weight of all newborns, as well as the percentil calculator developed by Hadlock et al, supported by the WHO (2008), was used to generate the percentages and curves of the body weight. Materials and methods. A newborn body weight percentile table was constructed, depending on the gestational age. Differences were observed between the current average body weight of newborns for Kyiv and current WHO links. Conclusion. We found a rise in the average body weight of newborns, which we associate with excessive, unbalanced diet and the prescribing of a complex of multivitamins and biologically active substances during pregnancy. This indicates the importance of using this table for differential diagnosis of normal fetal growth from intrauterine growth restriction and small for fetal gestational age within the region of Kyiv and oblast. Key words: delayed fetal growth, percentile table of the city of Kiev, average body weight of newborns, percentile schedule.

Methodological Considerations

The obesity paradox for survival among individuals with type 2 diabetes has been observed in some but not all studies. Conflicting evidence for the role of overweight and obesity in all-cause mortality may largely be a result of differences in study populations, epidemiological methods, and statistical analysis. For example, analyses among populations with long-term prevalent diabetes and the accrual of other chronic health conditions are more likely to observe that the sickest participants have lower body weights, and therefore, relative to normal weight, overweight and even obesity appear advantageous. Other mortality risk factors, such as smoking, also confound the relationship between body weight and survival, but this behavior varies widely in intensity and duration, making it difficult to assess and effectively adjust for in statistical models. Disentangling the potential sources of bias is imperative in understanding the relevance of excess body weight to mortality in diabetes. In this review, we summarize methodological considerations underlying the observed obesity paradox. Based on the available evidence, we conclude that the obesity paradox is likely an artifact of biases, and once these are accounted for, it is evident that compared with normal body weight, excess body weight is associated with a greater mortality risk.
