ABSTRACT
Introduction: Childhood obesity is a risk factor for early development of type 2 diabetes, dyslipidemia and hypertension, components
of the metabolic syndrome (MS) associated with increased cardiovascular risk. The purpose of this study was to identify clinical
characteristics of MS in obese children of Oaxaca México.
Material and Methods: 226 children of both sexes between 6 and 12 years old were studied, 113 with BMI ≥ 85 th percentile, and 113
with BMI ≤ 85 th percentile. Weight, height, BMI, blood pressure and waist circumference were determined. Acanthosis nigricans
and postprandial capillary glucose were documented.
Results: Difference in the means of waist circumference, systolic and diastolic blood pressure among children with overweight and
obesity and children with normal weight were observed. (P= 0.0001). In the obese group, acanthosis nigricans was documented in
76.1%, and hypertension in 31%. BMI correlated with waist circumference and with systolic and diastolic blood pressure (r= 0.913,
0.471 and 0.526), the waist circumference correlated with systolic and diastolic blood pressure (r= 0.493 and 0.553) (P= 0.0001). Using
multinomial logistic regression analysis, abdominal obesity, hypertension, and acanthosis nigricans were identified as independent
markers of obesity (P ‹ 0.05).
Conclusion: It is necessary to identify these clinical features of MS in children with overweight and obesity, which will enable early
intervention in those at risk for SM and type 2 diabetes, thus preventing the multiple complications of these disorders.
