This one suggests that among children and adolescents with overweight/obesity, those born small for gestational age are more likely to possess cardiometabolic risk factors compared to their counterparts born appropriate for gestational age.
- Small for gestational age in children and adolescents with overweight or obesity was associated with cardiometabolic risk factors, including increased odds for hypertensive blood pressure, elevated HbA1c, elevated ALT, and low HDL.
- On the contrary, large for gestational age was associated with lower odds for hypertensive blood pressure, elevated HbA1c, and elevated ALT.
- Preterm birth modified some of the associations between small for gestational age and cardiometabolic risk factors in children and adolescents with overweight/obesity by increasing the odds for hypertensive blood pressure and by diminishing the odds for elevated ALT.
