Información del artículo
La obesidad está aumentando de manera ostensible en el niño y en el adolescente en la última década en todos los países. En estos pacientes, sobre todo los de ciertas etnias, se han comenzado a encontrar alteraciones del metabolismo hidrocarbonado y se ha llegado incluso a presentar diabetes tipo 2. También muestran signos precoces de insulinorresistencia y factores de riesgo cardiovascular. La presencia de diferentes factores de riesgo tiene un efecto aditivo.

Adolescencia
In the last decade, overweight and obesity have increased in children and adolescents in all countries. These patients, especially those from certain ethnic groups, are now being diagnosed with impaired glucose tolerance and even type 2 diabetes. Early signs of insulin resistance syndrome and cardiovascular risk are also present. These risk factors appear to act in an additive fashion.
Key words:
Type 2 diabetes
Obesity
Insulin resistance
