WHAT IS ALREADY KNOWN ABOUT THIS TOPIC?: The early onset of puberty increases the risk of cardiovascular diseases. Limited research has focused on the association between the onset of puberty, based on sudden increases in height, and obesity in late adolescence.
WHAT IS ADDED BY THIS REPORT?: This report assessed the age at take-off and age at peak height velocity for children and adolescents in China from 2012 to 2020. The results indicated that age at take-off and age at peak height velocity were negatively associated with the risk of late adolescence obesity in boys, independent of childhood body mass index; however, no similar association was found in girls.
WHAT ARE THE IMPLICATIONS FOR PUBLIC HEALTH PRACTICE?: Puberty timing influences adiposity. Effective monitoring and management of pubertal development are necessary, and attention should be paid to sex differences.
青春期提前会增加心血管疾病风险。有限的研究聚焦于基于身高突然增长的青春期开始与青春期后期肥胖之间的关联。
本报告评估了2012年至2020年中国儿童和青少年的身高突增起始年龄和身高增长峰值速度年龄。结果表明,身高突增起始年龄和身高增长峰值速度年龄与男孩青春期后期肥胖风险呈负相关,独立于儿童期体重指数;然而,在女孩中未发现类似关联。
青春期时间影响肥胖。对青春期发育进行有效监测和管理很有必要,并且应关注性别差异。
