Diagnostic Criteria for Recognition of Obesity and Metabolic Disorders in Children

This article provides a comprehensive analysis of diagnostic criteria for obesity and metabolic disorders in children from the perspective of modern clinical medicine and evidence-based pediatrics. Anthropometric, biochemical, and hormonal indicators that allow for the detection of early stages of metabolic dysfunction are considered. It is shown that the use of isolated criteria (e.g., body mass index alone) limits diagnostic accuracy and does not reflect the true degree of visceral obesity and insulin resistance.
