Childhood obesity is an issue of public health concern that is understood to emerge due to disequilibrium in energy homeostasis. This commentary explores literature regarding neuro-biological mechanisms of energy homeostasis and the relationship between subjective measures of children’s eating behaviours and objective measures of appetite, in order to better understand the aetiology of childhood obesity. Early life influences, such as in utero exposure, breastfeeding, and general disadvantage, appear to have an important influence on neuro-biological mechanisms of appetite and may contribute to inequitable distributions of obesity within the population. Subject measures of eating behaviours appear to capture various aspects of neuro-biologically driven (objective) appetite systems, however, these systems are complex, interdependent and not yet fully understood. Future research focusing attention on early life influences on appetite and eating behaviours is warranted to increase understanding of differences in rates of obesity within the population, to determine opportunities for targeted obesity prevention initiatives, and to explore the potential to measure change in eating behaviours as a marker of appetite and obesity risk.

饮食行为的病因学:了解幼儿肥胖发展的可能机制

儿童肥胖是公共卫生关注的一个问题,人们普遍认为这是由于能量稳态失衡引起的。该评论探讨了有关能量稳态的神经生物学机制以及儿童饮食行为的主观测量与食欲的客观测量之间的关系的文献,以便更好地了解儿童肥胖的病因。早期的生活影响,例如子宫内接触,母乳喂养和一般不利因素,似乎对食欲的神经生物学机制具有重要影响,并且可能导致肥胖在人群中分布不均。饮食行为的主观衡量指标似乎捕捉了神经生物学驱动的(客观)食欲系统的各个方面,但是,这些系统很复杂,相互依存,尚未完全了解。未来的研究重点应放在早期生活对食欲和饮食行为的影响上,以增进对人群中肥胖率差异的了解,确定针对性的肥胖预防措施的机会,并探索测量饮食行为变化的潜力。食欲和肥胖风险的标志。
