In Qena government study was conducted on 1000 students were chosen randomly from all grades of primary schools the overall prevalence of obesity and Overweight was 13.9% and 16.2% respectively. Girls were more obese than boys.\n\nThe alarming increase in childhood obesity foreshows a tremendous burden of chronic disease prevention in the future public healthcare systems worldwide. Obesity prevention is a critical factor in controlling Obesity-related Non-communicable diseases (OR-NCDs), including insulin resistance/ metabolic syndrome, coronary artery Disease ,cancer and psychological problems.\n\nMetabolic syndrome is a clustering of abdominal obesity-associated factors including elevated waist Circumference(WC), elevated blood pressure (BP), elevated glucose, elevated triglycerides (TGs) or reduced high-Density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C).two key components of metabolic syndrome glucose and triglycerides are overproduced by the fatty liver. So liver is therefore a key determinant of metabolic abnormalities and prevalence of both metabolic syndrome and Non-alcoholic fatty liver (NAFLD) increases with obesity.\n\nThere are various diagnostic methods for metabolic syndrome in children and adolescents. Based on the world Health organization(WHO) criteria it diagnosed when three or more of the following features are found: body Mass index (BMI):\\>95th percentile, hyperinsulinemia or impaired fasting glucose or impaired glucose tolerance, BP\\>95th percentile, triglycerides (TG)\\>105/136 mg/dL (1.2/1.5 mmol/L) for children aged\\<10 and\\>10 years Respectively ,high density lipoprotein (HDL)-C\\<35 mg/dL (0.9 mmol/L).\n\nWhile BMI is a simple measure calculated by dividing the body weight by the squared height, it does not fully Reflect adiposity or body composition. So a better anthropometric measures than BMI to screen for central obesity are needed. . Among the anthropometric measures used to evaluate adiposity, the waist circumference and waist-To-height ratio (WHtR) can be easily measured in clinical settings and can act as an indicator of central obesity and cardio metabolic risk.\n\nIn this study we will Compare predictive value of waist to-height ratio and bio-electrical impedance analysis versus BMI in early detection of metabolic syndrome.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['CHILD'], 'maximumAge': '12 Years', 'minimumAge': '6 Years', 'samplingMethod': 'NON_PROBABILITY_SAMPLE', 'studyPopulation': 'Obese children (Body mass index \\>95th percentile) aged 6-12 years old', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Obese children (Body mass index \\>95th percentile) aged 6-12 years old\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\nPatient who aged \\<6 or\\>12 years Presence of chronic illness (diabetes, asthma, endocrine disease) Presence of obesity as a part of genetic syndrome Presence of history of long term drug intake (corticosteroids )'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT05681104', 'briefTitle': 'Early Detection of Metabolic Syndrome and Obesity Comorbidities', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'Assiut University'}, 'officialTitle': 'Bio-electrical Impedance Analysis and Waist-height Ratio Versus Body Mass Index in Early Detection of Metabolic Syndrome and Obesity Comorbidities in Primary School Aged Obese Children', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': 'metabolic syndrome in children'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'interventions': [{'name': 'Waist-height ratio', 'type': 'DIAGNOSTIC_TEST', 'description': 'Waist-height ratio as early predictors of metabolic syndrome in primary school obese children'}, {'name': 'body mass index', 'type': 'DIAGNOSTIC_TEST', 'description': 'Body mass index as early predictors of metabolic syndrome in primary school obese children'}, {'name': 'Bio-electrical impedance analysis', 'type': 'DIAGNOSTIC_TEST', 'description': 'Bio-electrical impedance analysis as early predictors of metabolic syndrome in primary school obese children'}]}, 'contactsLocationsModule': {'centralContacts': [{'name': 'Mostafa sh Abd Elalem, doctor', 'role': 'CONTACT', 'email': 'mostafa.shawky.1121984@gmail.com', 'phone': '0201063853481'}, {'name': 'Osama Mh Ahmed, professor', 'role': 'CONTACT', 'email': 'Asheer1970@aun.edu.eg', 'phone': '0201001348864'}], 'overallOfficials': [{'name': 'Ghada om El-sedaffy, professor', 'role': 'STUDY_DIRECTOR', 'affiliation': 'Assiut University'}]}, 'ipdSharingStatementModule': {'ipdSharing': 'UNDECIDED'}, 'sponsorCollaboratorsModule': {'leadSponsor': {'name': 'Assiut University', 'class': 'OTHER'}, 'responsibleParty': {'type': 'PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR', 'investigatorTitle': 'doctor', 'investigatorFullName': 'Mostafa Shawky Ibrahim Abd Elalem', 'investigatorAffiliation': 'Assiut University'}}}}
