Thus, this study's goals were to compare weight status of children during and after the economic crisis according to their neighbourhood environment features and to assess changes in specific dietary habits during the economic crisis. STUDY DESIGN: Cross-sectional study. METHODS: Data including weight, height, residence address to allow its geocoding and dietary habits changes during the crisis from children living in Lisbon municipality were collected in 2009 (N = 929) and in 2016 (N = 1751). A multidimensional environment index, with data of both built and socioeconomic nature collected at the statistical section level (areas comprised 300 dwellers) in the 2011 census, was used to characterize neighbourhoods. RESULTS: Overall, the proportion of children who are overweight or obese living in the socioeconomically vulnerable areas decreased in 2016. Families living in the latter areas stopped buying some food items, started to buy cheaper food items, cooked more meals at home and ate less in restaurants. In 2016, the risk for overweight and obesity increased in children who lived in the least advantageous areas. Living in areas with high socioeconomic status or most advantageous areas no longer represented a decreased risk of being overweight or obese in children in 2016 as it did in 2009. CONCLUSIONS: This study suggests that the economic crisis enhanced the social inequalities regarding childhood obesity. These results aid the development of evidence-based strategies to lessen the social inequities in health outcomes created by the crisis.</style></abstract><accession-num><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">34139606</style></accession-num><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pereira, Margarida&lt;br/&gt;Nogueira, Helena&lt;br/&gt;Gama, Augusta&lt;br/&gt;Machado-Rodrigues, Aristides&lt;br/&gt;Rosado-Marques, Vitor&lt;br/&gt;G Silva, Maria-Raquel&lt;br/&gt;Padez, Cristina&lt;br/&gt;eng&lt;br/&gt;Netherlands&lt;br/&gt;2021/06/18&lt;br/&gt;Public Health. 2021 Jul;196:29-34. doi: 10.1016/j.puhe.2021.04.030.

METHODS: A total of 2253 children aged 6.0-11.0 years were assessed: 49.3% girls and 50.7% boys. Children's weight and height were measured, age and sex-specific BMI cut-off points were used to define normal vs overweight/obesity. Children's organized sports (OS) activity was assessed by questionnaire, and local facilities for children's engagement in OS were analyzed. Logistic regression models were computed, adjusted for confounding variables. RESULTS: Results showed greater overweight and obesity (25.1% vs 20.1%) and lower OS engagement (66.5% vs 73.8%) in girls as well as greater impact of OS engagement on weight status in girls (OR for having a normal weight = 1.434 in girls vs 1.043 in boys). Additionally, opportunities to engage in OS were scarce for girls. CONCLUSIONS: The gender gap in children's weight status and OS engagement might be enhanced by an environmental mismatch that undermines girls' opportunities to play sports. There should be more opportunities for girls to engage in their favorite sports as a means to tackle the obesity epidemic and to promote gender equality.</style></abstract><accession-num><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">31502359</style></accession-num><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nogueira, Helena&lt;br/&gt;Costeira E Pereira, Margarida M&lt;br/&gt;Costa, Diogo&lt;br/&gt;Gama, Augusta&lt;br/&gt;Machado-Rodrigues, Aristides&lt;br/&gt;Silva, Maria-Raquel&lt;br/&gt;Marques, Vitor R&lt;br/&gt;Padez, Cristina M&lt;br/&gt;eng&lt;br/&gt;Research Support, Non-U.S. Gov't&lt;br/&gt;2019/09/11&lt;br/&gt;Am J Hum Biol. 2020 Mar;32(2):e23322. doi: 10.1002/ajhb.23322.

Thus, this study's main goal was to verify if there is an association between the neighborhood urban design and childhood obesity-independent of well-known childhood obesity determinants, such as, father's level of schooling (as a proxy for socioeconomic status), and parent's weight status. METHODS: This study classifies neighborhoods according to land use and building features using hierarchical clusters analysis and examines their association with childhood obesity through logistic regression models. RESULTS: Four clusters resulted from the analysis: Cluster 1 represents areas with older buildings and mixed land use, cluster 2 is an area with small rented buildings and urban areas, cluster 3 comprises newer buildings with parking and urban green space, and cluster 4 is a forest area. Living in cluster 3 protects from childhood obesity, even when adjusting for father's level of schooling or parent's weight status. CONCLUSIONS: There are distinct urban configurations in Lisbon's municipality and children who live in Cluster 3 (more recent and greener neighborhoods) seem to be protected from obesity. Therefore, public policy should focus on healthy urban planning at the neighborhood level, to promote positive impacts on peoples' health.</style></abstract><accession-num><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">30869821</style></accession-num><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pereira, Margarida&lt;br/&gt;Nogueira, Helena&lt;br/&gt;Padez, Cristina&lt;br/&gt;eng&lt;br/&gt;SFRH/BD/133140/2017/Foundation for the Science and Technologies/International&lt;br/&gt;PTDC/DTP-SAP/1520/2014/Foundation for the Science and Technologies/International&lt;br/&gt;Research Support, Non-U.S. Gov't&lt;br/&gt;2019/03/15&lt;br/&gt;Am J Hum Biol. 2019 May;31(3):e23220. doi: 10.1002/ajhb.23220.

Children with obesity are more likely to become adults with obesity with greater needs of healthcare. Determinants of childhood obesity might be grouped in five levels according to the Socio-Ecological Model (SEM): individual, interpersonal, institutional, community and policies. This scoping review emerged from the need to identify which determinants of childhood obesity have been more frequently studied (and how) and which require more investigation. The main objectives were to quantify studies on the determinants of childhood obesity by SEM level addressed, to identify gaps in the literature regarding the studied SEM level(s), to describe the studies' characteristics and to provide guidance for SEM levels that need further investigation. This scoping review follows the five-stage protocol methodology proposed by Arksey and O'Malley in 2005. PubMed database was systematically searched, and hand-searches also took place. The search yielded 975 results from which 552 were excluded after title and abstract reading. The remaining 423 results were fully read and information about methodologic aspects, namely study design, sample size, sample constitution (children, dyads or/and parents) and children's age as well as the SEM level determinants addressed was retrieved. Despite the consensus about the appropriateness of SEM as a framework to comprehensively examine childhood obesity determinants, studies addressing all SEM levels determinants jointly or the policies level determinants alone were not found. Other gaps shown were: the small number of studies that included the policies level determinants alongside determinants from other levels (N = 10) and studies using cohorts study design (ranging from 2 to 28 per SEM level). These gaps should be considered when planning future research.&lt;/p&gt;
