Obesity, children, adolescents, Uzbekistan, prevalence, morbidity, endocrine diseases, public health.Abstract
This study investigates the disease structure in children and adolescents with obesity in the Namangan Region, analyzing the prevalence of various health conditions according to the ICD-10 classification. The data highlights the significant association between obesity and a range of health issues in this population. The analysis reveals that endocrine disorders and metabolic disturbances account for the largest proportion of obesity-related diseases, contributing to 24.6% of the total diseases observed. These conditions likely include metabolic syndrome, insulin resistance, and type 2 diabetes, which are strongly linked to obesity.
In addition, a notable proportion of affected individuals suffer from digestive system diseases (11.4%) and respiratory system diseases (10.5%), with conditions such as gastroesophageal reflux, liver dysfunction, and sleep apnea being prevalent. Blood and hematopoietic system disorders, which make up 14% of the total diseases, also reflect the broader systemic impacts of obesity, including increased risks of hypertension and cardiovascular complications.
Psychiatric disorders (3.7%) and nervous system diseases (5.4%) further highlight the psychological and neurological burden associated with obesity in children and adolescents, while musculoskeletal issues (2.5%) also contribute to the overall disease burden due to the physical strain of excess weight.
