Key result
Visceral obesity and excess visceral adipose tissue induce inflammation and activate inflammasomes, highlighting the need for preventive tools against obesity-associated adverse effects in children.
Why the study?
Childhood obesity is prevalent worldwide and represents a critical issue due to the high risk of developing chronic non-communicable diseases.
Understanding the role of visceral obesity and inflammation is crucial for developing preventive tools against obesity-associated adverse effects in children.

Hypothesis-generating on visceral obesity and inflammasomes in children; leaves open targeted prevention trials.
The prevalence of childhood obesity in the world is significant and it is topical issue due to the high risk of chronic non-communicable diseases development. This article presents the analysis of pathogenetic role of visceral obesity, describes modern methods for measuring visceral adipose tissue, discusses major terminology on obesity. The current data on inflammation induced by excess of visceral adipose tissue and inflammasome’s role in this process are summed up. All the findings are crucial for the development of tools for prevention any obesity associated adverse effects in children.
