Comparison of different severe obesity definitions in predicting future cardiometabolic risk in a longitudinal cohort of children

Author(s): Kakinami L; Smyrnova A; Paradis G; Tremblay A; Henderson M;

Objectives: Severe obesity (SO) prevalence varies between reference curve-based definitions (WHO: =99th percentile, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC): >1.2×95th percentile). Whether SO definitions differentially predict cardiometabolic disease risk is critical for proper clinical care and management but is unknown.
