Topic Statement
Pediatric obesity is often the result of unhealthy nutrition and the lack of control from parents but not of health issues or hormonal imbalance.

The present article is devoted to the cardiovascular diseases that develop in obese children and adolescents. It discusses the scope of obesity in children, explores several studies on the connection between pediatric obesity and cardiometabolic diseases, and suggests the possible directions for further research on the issue. The results of the present study are necessary for the project on obesity because they will help demonstrate the concrete risks obese children face with. They will be used as a scientific base for establishing the possible cardiovascular and metabolic diseases which may develop if the obesity is not treated or is improperly treated.

The study explores the reasons for the development of obesity in children of all ages as well as provides some shocking statistics on the issue. The research analyzes the spread of obesity in different countries to figure out which of them faced the most difficult situation. It also provides information on the most common reasons for the development of obesity in children around the globe. The results of the present study are helpful for the research project because they give concise statistics on the issue, comparing the obesity in children at the end of the 20th century and now. It will help establish the dynamics of the disease and figure out the average age of the children susceptible to obesity.

The article explores the influence of pediatric obesity treatment, with a dietary component, on the risks of the development of eating disorders in children. The research analyzes the scientific materials on the topic and establishes that structural and professionally conducted and controlled treatment of obesity decreases the risks of emerging eating disorders and their symptoms. The results of the study are useful for the project because they contribute to the rational treatment of the disease. They may also be referred to as a scientific base in order to illustrate the side effects of the improper treatment of obesity in children and adolescents.

The present research is devoted to the exploration of genetic forms of obesity. The authors state that there are more than thirty forms of monogenic obesity and that children with severe obesity are often genetically susceptible to it. That is why all forms of obesity, especially genetic ones, should be treated in different ways. The results of the present study are useful for the project because they help figure out which forms of obesity exist and which genetic factors may cause them. In addition, the research provides information on the possible strategies for developing further treatment of genetically caused obesity.
Kracht, C. L., Joseph, E. D. & Staiano, A. E. (2020). Video games, obesity, and children. Current Obesity Reports, 9(1), 1-14.Â
The study establishes the connection between video gaming and obesity in children in order to state whether the former increase the risk of obesity among children and adolescents. However, the results of the research state that video games, especially exergames, help people suffering from obesity lose weight, though further studies on the matter are required. The research results may be used for developing the project on obesity in order to illustrate that there are non-evident alternatives to sports that help in obesity treatment and prevention. In addition, the study findings are useful since they promote physical activity through the understandable to the majority of children methods such as video games.
Mittal, M. & Jain, V. (2021). Management of obesity and its complications in children and adolescents. Indian Journal of Pediatrics, 88(12), 1222-1234.Â
The present article is devoted to the treatment and prevention of obesity in children and adolescents. It explores the most frequently used methods to manage the disease as well as gives a step-by-step strategy for treating obesity in children. The study also contains information on the healthcare risks and diseases pediatric obesity may cause if it is not treated. The results of the research are useful for the further project because they provide explicit information on the treatment and prevention of pediatric obesity. It is necessary for establishing the most appropriate methods to manage the issue and avoid negative health-related consequences.

The study is devoted to establishing the connection between the duration of breastfeeding and the risk of obesity in children. It studies children who were breastfed during different periods of time and compares their food preferences and habits at the ages of two to six years. The research established that the duration of breastfeeding influences the pickiness in young children and contributes to the facilitation of vegetable consumption in children with normal weight but susceptible to the risk of obesity. The results of the research are useful for the project on obesity since they help in establishing the reasons for its development or for the risk of it.

The present article explores the connection between pediatric obesity and the risks of the development of eating disorders in the adult age. The authors state that the tactics of obesity and eating disorders prevention are the same since the reason for their development in both cases are disordered eating and weight-control behavior. The research also gives information on the possible methods of obesity treatment that will help children avoid the development of eating disorders in the future. The present research is useful for the project because it explains the connection between pediatric obesity and eating disorders the majority of adolescents are susceptible to. Its results may be applied to demonstrate the consequences of improperly treated obesity developed at an early age.

The present research studies factual data on the connection between food insecurity and obesity both in children and adults. The authors of the study claim that though the issue requires further research, it is clearly seen from the clinical practice that food insecurities contribute to the development of obesity in children. The COVID-19 pandemic enhances the food insecurities in low-income families, which contributes to the increase in pediatric obesity. The study is useful for the further project because it explores the possible connection between food insecurity, which provokes extreme stress, and obesity in children. The research findings will help in defining the reasons for pediatric obesity.

The present research explores the programs in obesity prevention that exist in different countries. The study analyzed the programs implemented in educational institutions such as kindergartens and schools for children and adolescents. The research also includes the recommendations for parents, teachers, and children themselves to follow, as well as assesses the efficacy of their implementation. The results of the present study can be applied in the further project on obesity to provide a broader outlook on the issue and the ways of its prevention. They will help in establishing the most appropriate methods of preventing obesity in children and young adults.

The study is aimed at establishing the effectiveness of nutrition education and physical activity intervention at schools on the mental health and cardiovascular conditions of children who suffer from obesity. The authors conducted the experiment in two schools in Wuhan and assessed the results of the children studying there. The research results state that education in nutrition and increased physical activity positively influenced both the physical and mental health of children with obesity. These findings are helpful for the report since they show the consequences of managing the problem of obesity at schools and promote the implementation of the same measures in educational institutions in other countries.
