ABSTRACT
Two of the most prevalent problems children facing worldwide are injuries and obesity. We conducted a systematic review of published studies that evaluated the effects of obesity on children with traumatic injuries. Six studies published between 2006 and 2014 were identified, comprising a total of 4594 children: 867 were obese and 3727 were not. Obese children were 25% more likely to have extremity fractures than nonobese children (p = 0.003), and their mortality rate was significantly higher at 4.7% versus 2.8% (p = 0.026). CONCLUSION: Our review showed that obese children were more likely to have extremity fractures and die of traumatic injuries than nonobese children. CI - ??016 Foundation Acta Paediatrica.
